| Two of Hasbro’s remastered Super Soakers are being recalled Posted: 21 Aug 2020 03:13 PM PDT  Image: Hasbro When Hasbro brought back three classic Super Soakers this spring, I was pretty pumped — but now, two of them are being recalled. The US Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) has announced that the Super Soaker XP20 and XP30 used too much lead in the ink when the manufacturer printed their labels, and should be immediately be returned to Hasbro for a full refund. They were exclusively sold at Target between March and July of this year, and the CPSC says that Hasbro managed to ship some 52,900 of them so far. If you're one of those nearly 53,000 buyers, you can email SuperSoakerRecall@Hasbro.com or click here for an online form. (If you're not sure which Super Soakers we're talking about, take a look at the pictures above and below.) ... |
| Palantir still relies heavily on government contracts despite push for more corporate customers Posted: 21 Aug 2020 01:46 PM PDT  Palantir, the controversial analytics and data mining firm, still relies heavily on its US government contracts for revenue despite its public statements that it was branching out into more corporate clients, according to screenshots of the company's S-1 filing acquired by TechCrunch. The financials, which the New York Times also has viewed, show Palantir has not once turned a profit since its founding in 2003. Add to that the news it's moving out of Silicon Valley because of "increasing intolerance and monoculture," and you end up with a picture of a company that doesn't have a lot of growth potential. It's now clear Palantir is dependent on the current administration in Washington to maintain its existing revenue streams. Palantir c... |
| Posted: 21 Aug 2020 01:33 PM PDT  Photo Illustration by Rafael Henrique/SOPA Images/LightRocket via Getty Images WordPress, the iOS app, lets you build and manage a website right from your iPhone or iPad, for free. Separately, WordPress.com also happens to sell domain names and fancier website packages. Now, WordPress founding developer Matt Mullenweg is accusing Apple of cutting off the ability to update that app — until or unless he adds in-app purchases so the most valuable company in the world can extract its 30 percent cut of the money.

| Read the emails between Epic and Apple that led to Fortnite’s App Store ban Posted: 21 Aug 2020 01:01 PM PDT  Illustration by Alex Castro / The Verge It's been just over a week since Fortnite developer Epic Games initiated an unprecedented antitrust legal fight with Apple over its App Store rules, and the lawsuit is shedding new light on how the companies came into conflict. Today, Apple entered into evidence a series of emails from Epic CEO Tim Sweeney, in which he asked top Apple executives to exempt Fortnite from its standard 30 percent cut and to allow Epic to offer its own mobile app store. Beginning in June, the emails show extensive discussions between Sweeney and Apple before Epic took action to incorporate an alternate payment mechanism into the Fortnite app, which resulted in it being ejected from the App Store last week. The... |
| Google’s Pixel Buds sound noticeably better with new bass boost, but connectivity issues remain Posted: 21 Aug 2020 12:55 PM PDT  Photo by Chris Welch / The Verge Google pushed out a significant firmware update to its Pixel Buds this week, adding several new features to the true wireless earbuds including a "bass boost" setting, sharing detection (so you can individually set volume for each earbud when sharing one of them with someone), attention alerts, and more. The updated firmware was also supposed to address the connectivity and audio dropout problems that some early Pixel Buds buyers have been complaining about. After some time listening to the Pixel Buds today, I'd say Google succeeded at the first bit; bass boost makes for a very real improvement to sound quality if you were disappointed by low-end performance before. But the Pixel Buds' wireless signal is still weaker than it should be,... |
| Apple says Epic is ‘putting the entire App Store model at risk’ Posted: 21 Aug 2020 12:20 PM PDT  Illustration by Alex Castro / The Verge Apple has responded to Epic Games' antitrust lawsuit over its iOS App Store policies. The filing asks a court not to temporarily reverse an App Store ban while the suit is ongoing. And it accuses Epic of disingenuously creating an "emergency" by accepting direct payments through Fortnite in violation of Apple's rules. In a declaration to the court, Apple executive Phil Schiller wrote that Epic CEO Tim Sweeney asked for a "special deal with only Epic" that would "fundamentally change the way in which Epic offers apps on Apple's iOS platform." When Apple declined, Epic changed its policies to cut Apple out of in-app purchases. Now, the company argues that Epic's ban is its own responsibility. |
| Hear our reviews of Samsung’s Note 20 Ultra, Galaxy Buds Live, and Galaxy Watch 3 Posted: 21 Aug 2020 11:51 AM PDT  Photo by Vjeran Pavic / The Verge This week on The Verge's flagship podcast, The Vergecast, Dieter Bohn, Becca Farsace, and Dan Seifert log into a Zoom meeting to discuss their reviews of the next line of Samsung hardware on the market: the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra, the Galaxy Buds Live, and the Galaxy Watch 3. The Note 20 Ultra is a really big phone, but are we cool with that now? Dieter explains why a bigger phone suits the stay-at-home lifestyle of 2020 and how delightful Samsung's updated note-taking app is to use on the device. Now, we know the Galaxy Buds Live are not named the "Galaxy Beans," but we call them that anyway. Becca points out that while those beans have active noise cancellation, in practice, it just doesn't do the job. Dan's review details how the... |
| Leaked Google Pixel 5 renders show dual rear cameras and fingerprint sensor Posted: 21 Aug 2020 11:08 AM PDT  A render purportedly showing the Pixel 5. | Image: OnLeaks/PriceBaba Google launched the Pixel 4A in August but told us we'd have to wait to see the Pixel 5 and Pixel 4A 5G. They're due to arrive sometime this fall (probably in early October), but new renders purportedly showing the Pixel 5 give us some idea what to expect. The renders come from regular leaker @OnLeaks and Indian tech site PriceBaba. There are no real surprises here, with the images showing a fingerprint sensor on the rear; square-shaped camera array containing what looks to be two cameras, a flash, and an unknown sensor; and a hole-punch front-facing camera in the top left of the display. It's hard to judge the render's authenticity, but the sand-blasted texture on the case looks the same as the side-on peek of the Pixel 5 and Pixel 4A... |
| Watch Crysis Remastered attempt to redeem its graphics ahead of new September 18th release Posted: 21 Aug 2020 10:15 AM PDT  Image: Crytek When a trailer for Crysis Remastered leaked online in July, fans criticized the game's graphics for looking far too much like the original's from over 10 years ago. But today, Crytek released a new trailer that shows drastic improvements to the game's visuals, and it announced the remaster will be coming to multiple platforms next month. Crysis Remastered will now launch on the PS4, Xbox One, and Epic Games Store on September 18th for $30. In July, following backlash from fans, Crytek announced that it would delay these versions of the game by several weeks. Crytek acknowledged the leaked trailer in its delay announcement and promised to use the extra time "to get Crysis Remastered up to the PC- and console-breaking standard you've come... |
| Fortnite teases Marvel-themed season, but iPhone and iPad players could miss out Posted: 21 Aug 2020 09:43 AM PDT  Illustration by Alex Castro / The Verge Fortnite's next season, which kicks off on August 27th, could be a full-season collaboration with Marvel, as suggested by a teaser released by Epic Games on Friday. But due to Epic's public dispute with Apple over the iPhone maker's App Store policies, Epic currently isn't able to update Fortnite on iOS. That means iPhone and iPad players will miss out on the new season unless something changes between Epic and Apple before Thursday. Apple yanked Fortnite from the App Store on August 13th after Epic added a direct payment system into the game, which goes against App Store rules. Epic then sued Apple, released an in-game short parodying one of Apple's most famous commercials, and began telling iOS players that they wouldn't be able to... |
