| You can now watch Quibi shows on a TV using AirPlay Posted: 26 May 2020 05:48 PM PDT  Illustration by Alex Castro / The Verge Short-form mobile video service Quibi now supports Apple's AirPlay protocol, which means you'll be able to stream content from Quibi on your phone to AirPlay-enabled TVs and devices. Quibi is also "working hard" to have support for Chromecast available in June, according to Tom Conrad, chief product officer at Quibi. That should let Android users cast content from the Quibi app to their TVs as well, once it's rolled out.
It first came to light that Quibi would be offering some sort of way... |
| macOS 10.15.5 is out now with a new battery health feature Posted: 26 May 2020 03:08 PM PDT  Photo by Dieter Bohn / The Verge Apple released macOS Catalina 10.15.5 today, adding a new battery health feature and new FaceTime options. That battery health feature could extend the life of your MacBook's battery. Lithium-ion batteries, like the ones in a MacBook, slowly age over time, which means they typically begin to hold less of a charge as the computer gets older. Apple's new battery health feature in macOS is designed to slow that aging process so that your battery will hold more charge over a longer period of time. Here's how the feature works behind the scenes, as described by my colleagues Dieter Bohn and Jacob Kastrenakes last month:

| Twitter labels Trump tweets as ‘potentially misleading’ for the first time Posted: 26 May 2020 03:04 PM PDT  Photo by Alex Wong/Getty Images On Tuesday, Twitter labeled two tweets from President Donald Trump making false statements about mail-in voting as "potentially misleading." It's the first time the platform has fact-checked the president. The label was imposed on two tweets Trump posted Tuesday morning falsely claiming that "mail-in ballots will be anything less than substantially fraudulent" and would result in "a rigged election." The tweets focused primarily on California's efforts to expand mail-in voting due to the novel coronavirus pandemic. On Sunday, the Republican National Committee sued California Governor Gavin Newsom over the state's moves to expand mail-in voting. According to a Twitter spokesperson, the tweets "contain potentially misleading information... |
| Amazon gave TV stations coronavirus propaganda, and some aired it Posted: 26 May 2020 02:49 PM PDT  Illustration by Alex Castro / The Verge Amazon has been successfully feeding talking points, video footage, and other corporate messaging to local television news stations ahead of its annual shareholder meeting on Wednesday. The footage and script are designed to paint Amazon in a positive light as it faces a torrent of bad media coverage and criticism from activists and politicians over its handling of workplace safety issues during the coronavirus pandemic. As Zach Rael, an anchor for ABC affiliate KOCO 5 News in Oklahoma City, pointed out on Twitter earlier this morning, Amazon's public relations team has been emailing TV stations around the country with prepared scripts and b-roll packages that promote the company's safety precautions and other measures to combat... |
| Google is reopening offices in July on a limited basis Posted: 26 May 2020 02:15 PM PDT  Photo by Andrej Sokolow / Picture Alliance via Getty Images Google will begin reopening offices starting on July 6th for a limited number of employees. In a blog post published on Tuesday, CEO Sundar Pichai said that, while returning to work will be optional for the rest of the year, those who need to come in will be able to on a rotating basis — one day every couple weeks. The company is also giving workers a $1,000 stipend for home office equipment to make remote work easier. In September, Google plans to let more people back into the office, until buildings reach about 30 percent capacity. Those who need to come in to do their jobs will be notified by June 10th. Pichai also said the company will be more flexible with remote working options after the pandemic lifts. "Moving ahead, we are... |
| Democrats want to restrict political ad targeting ahead of the 2020 election Posted: 26 May 2020 01:39 PM PDT  Photo By Tom Williams / CQ Roll Call On Tuesday, Rep. Anna Eshoo (D-CA) introduced a bill that would upend political advertising on platforms like Facebook and Google. The Banning Microtargeted Political Ads Act would bar platforms like Google and Facebook from allowing advertisers to target messages based on the demographic or behavioral data of their users. The Federal Elections Commission would act as the primary enforcer of these proposed rules, but the bill leaves room for individuals to bring civil action on companies accused of violating it. A court could award anywhere from $100 to $1,000 in relief for negligent violations and $500 to $5,000 for reckless ones. "Microtargeting political ads fractures our open democratic debate into millions of private,... |
| Posted: 26 May 2020 01:21 PM PDT  Image: Blizzard Entertainment Blizzard Entertainment will not host its annual BlizzCon event this year due to the novel coronavirus pandemic. The event is usually held later in the year, with BlizzCon 2019 kicking off on November 1st and concluding on November 2nd. In early April, Blizzard announced that it was uncertain about hosting BlizzCon this year. Despite canceling the convention, Blizzard may be looking to hold a virtual event in its place. "We're talking about how we might be able to channel the BlizzCon spirit and connect with you in some way online," BlizzCon executive producer Saralyn Smith said in a blog post. BlizzCon is just one of many video game conventions that have been canceled this year as a result of the pandemic. QuakeCon, Gamescom, and Tokyo... |

| YouTube took down Michael Moore’s film attacking renewable energy Posted: 26 May 2020 11:33 AM PDT  'Planet of the Humans' executive producer Michael Moore with director Jeff Gibbs and producer Ozzie Zehner at the Traverse City Film Festival. | Photo: Planet of the Humans The controversial film Planet of the Humans, produced by Michael Moore, was taken down from YouTube on Monday because of a copyright infringement claim. The complaint was filed by photographer Toby Smith, who was alarmed that his work was used in a film that he doesn't support, The Guardian reports. "I don't agree with its message and I don't like the misleading use of facts in its narrative," Smith said to The Guardian. A few seconds of Smith's video, Rare Earthenware, were used in Moore's film, which criticizes renewable energy. In a statement to The Verge, director Jeff Gibbs denied any copyright violation in his film, which garnered more... |
