Sega is making a Game Gear Micro

Posted: 02 Jun 2020 06:22 PM PDT

Sega is celebrating its 60th anniversary this year with another retro console, and it looks like it might be the tiniest yet. The Game Gear Micro is a revival of Sega's 8-bit handheld system that tried (and failed) to overcome Nintendo's Game Boy.

More news is set to drop later today via Japanese gaming news outlet Famitsu. The promo shots show that the system will unsurprisingly run at least one of the (pretty good!) Game Gear Sonic the Hedgehog titles.

An image initially hidden in the Game Gear Micro landing page also revealed that the system will come in four colors — black, blue, yellow, and red — and be released in Japan on October 6th this year for 4,980 yen, or about $46.

We'll update this story when we have more...

Apple's iCloud service experienced an outage on Tuesday evening, causing errors with account sign-in, iCloud Mail, and web apps via iCloud.com. The issues began shortly after 7PM ET, when user-reported issues began pouring in on Downdetector.com and across Twitter.

Apple acknowledged the issue on its system status website, as well on its Apple Support Twitter account. Many users started seeing similar error messages, including one that says, "The application you have selected does not exist." MacRumors reported that some other Apple services, like Apple Pay and the company's web-based app-specific password generator, were also experiencing issues, although Apple never acknowledged as much on its system status page.

Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg held an extended conference with employees today, addressing accusations that Facebook allowed election misinformation and veiled promotions of violence from President Donald Trump. While Zuckerberg said he should have offered more transparency to employees, he stood by what he called a "pretty thorough" evaluation of Trump's posts, saying the choice to avoid labeling or removing them was difficult but correct.

According to a recording obtained by The Verge, Zuckerberg described being upset by Trump's recent posts, one of which warned protesters that "when the looting starts, the shooting starts." But "I knew that I needed to separate out my personal opinion ... from what our policy is and the principles of...

Rivian makes cuts and names new chief operating officer

Posted: 02 Jun 2020 03:38 PM PDT

Amazon-backed EV startup Rivian has laid off about 40 employees at its engineering and design center in Plymouth, Michigan, The Verge has learned. The cuts, which the company has confirmed to The Verge, were made across departments and included engineers, recruiters, and others, according to two former employees. The company has also made a number of new executive hires, and has replaced its first chief operating officer.

Rivian has been on a hiring spree over the last year fueled by $3 billion worth of investments from Amazon, Ford, T. Rowe Price, and others. The startup currently employs a little more than 2,000 people overall, meaning the layoffs account for roughly 2 percent of its workforce. The former employees say they believe...

Tesla worker tests positive for COVID-19 after New York factory reopens

Posted: 02 Jun 2020 02:04 PM PDT

A Tesla employee has tested positive for COVID-19 at the company's solar panel factory in Buffalo, New York, according to an employee at the factory who spoke to The Verge on the condition of anonymity. It's the fourth known Tesla employee to test positive for the disease caused by the novel coronavirus but the first since the company reopened its US factories in May. One employee from Panasonic, which shares space with Tesla at its New York and Nevada factories, also tested positive back in March before the shutdowns.

Tesla quietly reopened the New York facility on May 19th after the state gave the region the green light, according to a new letter to local officials first reported on Friday by Buffalo Business First. But the company...

Zoom had a blockbuster quarter as its app became the hottest videoconferencing service of the pandemic. In an earnings report today, Zoom reported making $328 million in revenue during its February–April quarter. That's up far more than double from the same time last year, when it made $122 million, and it comes in well above the $200 million that Zoom expected it would make when it issued guidance just a few months ago.

Zoom doesn't say exactly how many people used its software over the past few months, but the company claims it added an "unprecedented number of free participants," including more than 100,000 K-12 schools. Zoom now has around 265,400 customers with more than 10 employees, a number that's grown 354 percent, the company...

President Donald Trump's executive order targeting social media companies faced its first legal challenge Tuesday, claiming that Trump violated the companies' rights to free speech.

In its lawsuit, the Center for Democracy and Technology (CDT) called Trump's order "retaliatory" because it specifically attacked Twitter for using its First Amendment right to comment and moderate the president's tweets. By attacking Twitter, the organization claimed that Trump's order could discourage other platforms from exercising their free speech rights to moderate the president's posts out of fear of retaliation from the federal government.

"The Executive Order is designed to deter social media services from fighting misinformation, voter suppression,...

Instacart will expand sick pay to more gig workers

Posted: 02 Jun 2020 01:01 PM PDT

Instacart will expand its COVID-19 sick pay to include more gig workers as part of an agreement with the attorney general for Washington, DC. Under the agreement, the company is also launching a telemedicine pilot in the DC area to remotely diagnose shoppers who believe they may have contracted the disease, and provide childcare assistance pay to eligible workers while schools are closed.

In March, Instacart announced that employees who were quarantined or tested positive for COVID-19 would receive 14 days of sick pay, meant to encourage them to stay home rather than spreading the disease further. But getting that pay has proven difficult for shoppers who have often been blocked from the...
