This app lets musicians remotely jam out on loops in real time Posted: 31 Mar 2020 05:09 PM PDT Image: Endlesss Collaborative music-making app Endlesss is now available for iOS. The app's been in beta for quite a long time, so newcomers will find that there's already a community using Endlesss and sharing and discussing projects on the software's dedicated Discord server. Even though Endlesss is a music-making app, it's not really meant for making complete songs. It's a collaborative "virtual musical hangout with a live chat room" that lets multiple users build and change loops of music in real time. Just select a project and start tapping out drum patterns and melodies to change up someone's loop. You can make stuff just for yourself, but the social aspect is encouraged. Open loops where anyone can remix layers on the fly sounds like a recipe... |
You can play Candy Crush with free, unlimited lives this week Posted: 31 Mar 2020 03:13 PM PDT Mobile developer King is adding free, unlimited lives to Candy Crush Saga and a swath of other games this week, removing the timers that make players wait or pay if they fail too many levels. The change lasts until April 5th, and it's part of a World Health Organization partnership called #PlayApartTogether, which promotes awareness of safety and social distancing guidelines during the coronavirus pandemic. Seven games are being updated with free lives: Candy Crush Saga, Candy Crush Soda Saga, Candy Crush Jelly Saga, Candy Crush Friends Saga, Farm Heroes Saga, Bubble Witch 3 Saga, and Pet Rescue Saga. I can't say if those latter six are worth your newly unlimited playtime. But Candy Crush Saga is a genuinely engrossing take on the... |
Zoom is leaking some user information because of an issue with how the app groups contacts Posted: 31 Mar 2020 03:11 PM PDT Illustration by Alex Castro / The Verge Zoom is apparently leaking some email addresses, user photos, and allowing some users to initiate a video call with strangers because of an issue with how the app handles contacts that it perceives work for the same organization, according to a report by Vice. Typically, Zoom will group contacts with the same email domain into a "Company Directory" so you can, for example, search for a specific person, see their photo and email, and start a video call with that person. That makes sense for a company with employees on Zoom, but the app has also been grouping some people together who signed up for the service with a personal email, reports Vice. That means an affected user might be able to see the personal email addresses and photos of... |
Wyze firmware update lets you turn its security cameras into webcams Posted: 31 Mar 2020 02:57 PM PDT Image: Wyze Smart home gadget maker Wyze has released a firmware update and set of instructions for turning its low-cost security camera into a working webcam at a time when proper webcams from brands like Logitech are increasingly hard to find. The update, which was released roughly an hour ago on Wyze's support website, involves manually installing firmware onto your Wyze camera that will temporarily turn it into a webcam, after which it will no longer connect to the Wyze app and function normally. However, Wyze says you can reverse the process to restore security camera access to the device and have it function normally again. The instructions say you'll need a Wyze Cam v2, a... |
Tesla created a ‘public health risk’ by keeping car factory open, local official said Posted: 31 Mar 2020 02:00 PM PDT Photo by Sean O'Kane / The Verge Tesla announced on March 19th that it would temporarily shut down its electric car factory in California, after back-and-forth with local officials about whether the plant was subject to a county-wide coronavirus shelter-in-place order. But the Silicon Valley automaker fought to keep the factory open after that announcement as well, according to new emails obtained by Protocol. It also came after the county's health officer decided that keeping the plant open was a "public health risk." The emails were sent by the local police chief to Tesla's senior policy advisor, Dan Chia. Each one includes a letter memorializing calls and virtual meetings between Tesla and local city and county officials. They help shed light on the deliberations... |
We need to start modeling alternative futures Posted: 31 Mar 2020 01:28 PM PDT The Future Today Institute We're continuing our Vergecast interview series remotely during the COVID-19 pandemic and this week, Verge editor-in-chief Nilay Patel sits down via Skype with Amy Webb, the founder and CEO of The Future Today Institute. Amy is also a professor at NYU's Stern School of Business and recently came out with a book called The Big Nine: How the Tech Titans and Their Thinking Machines Could Warp Humanity. The Future Today Institute recently published the 2020 Tech Trends Report, which is a quantitative look at the big trends that will dominate the future. Nilay and Amy discuss the different paths the report takes on predicting that, with the state of technology use today, there's no future in which we are not being scored. Amy and Nilay also... |
Movie advertising is now just making Zoom backgrounds Posted: 31 Mar 2020 01:25 PM PDT Movie posters and billboards are useless right now, so marketing teams all seem to have landed on the same solution: Zoom backgrounds. Yesterday, Pixar tweeted out backgrounds for Toy Story, Cars, and Up. The Twitter accounts for the Top Gun sequel, the Spongebob movie, and the Quiet Place sequel offered their own Zoom backgrounds. And CBS and Starz got in on the move too, offering up backgrounds for Young Sheldon, Big Brother, and a bunch of sitcoms I've never heard of. Your mileage will vary depending on what kind of event you're joining. Meeting with your boss? Probably don't pull up in a fighter jet. You'll also want to avoid looking like you're in imminent danger or very clearly trying to promote a movie that might,... |

You can pay anything you want, but you'll need to pay $30 in order to get the full bounty of PC games available (DRM-free or Steam keys), as well as several ebooks and digital comics (available in several formats), and some software.

How to talk with kids about screentime and COVID-19 Posted: 31 Mar 2020 12:46 PM PDT Illustration by Alex Castro / The Verge With schools closed and governments issuing orders for people to stay at home, a lot of kids have no choice but to turn to their screens for school and any kind of socializing. The debate over how much screentime is healthy is nothing new, but our devices have arguably never played as big a role in our lives as they do now when it comes to staying connected amid a global pandemic. To understand how these changes might affect kids, The Verge spoke with Lloyda Williamson, a general and child psychiatrist and the chair of the psychiatry and behavioral sciences department at Meharry Medical College. This interview has been lightly edited for length and clarity. Recent data... |
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 has been remastered and is out today Posted: 31 Mar 2020 12:38 PM PDT Image: Activision After years of speculation, a remastered version of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2's single-player campaign is finally here, bringing an enhanced version of one of the most iconic FPS games of the late 2000s onto modern hardware.
