| New trailers: Your Honor, Chicago 7, and a little show called The Mandalorian Posted: 20 Sep 2020 02:36 PM PDT  I was on a bit of a Star Wars kick the past week, watching The Empire Strikes Back, Rogue One, and The Last Jedi, inspired partly by the great news of a new trailer for The Mandalorian's second season. Tonight, though, I'm planning to stream RBG, the 2018 documentary about the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, who died Friday. Here's the original trailer: RBGGinsburg had an absolutely astonishing career and life, and this documentary, along with the 2018 drama On the Basis of Sex, are both great reminders. RBG is streaming on Hulu. The Mandalorian, Season TwoThen of course, we have the first trailer for the second season of the wildly popular Disney Plus show The Mandalorian. The Child is back (aka "Baby Yoda"). Or, he will be... |
| Twitter is looking into why its photo preview appears to favor white faces over Black faces Posted: 20 Sep 2020 01:20 PM PDT  Illustration by Alex Castro / The Verge Twitter it was looking into why the neural network it uses to generate photo previews apparently chooses to show white people's faces more frequently than Black faces. Several Twitter users demonstrated the issue over the weekend, posting examples of posts that had a Black person's face and a white person's face. Twitter's preview showed the white faces more often.
The informal testing began after a Twitter user tried to post about a problem he noticed in Zoom's facial recognition, which was not showing the face of a Black colleague on... |
| ActBlue sees huge surge in small-dollar donations following Ginsburg’s death Posted: 20 Sep 2020 11:14 AM PDT  Supreme Court 1 (Verge Stock) ActBlue, the FEC-certified Democratic fundraising site, says its fundraising following the Friday death of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg has topped $100 million. The tally broke ActBlue's previous records for single-day donations, dollars raised in one hour, and dollars raised in one day, the organization said. Ginsburg died of cancer Friday at age 87. "Amid the devastating loss of Justice Ginsburg, it is inspiring to see people taking action to honor her legacy," ActBlue executive director Erin Hill said in a statement. The surge of small-dollar donations began shortly after Ginsburg's death was announced Friday evening. Donors gave 1.5 million contributions for a total of $91.4 million between 8PM ET Friday and end-of-day... |
| TikTok and WeChat both managed to avoid their Sunday bans Posted: 20 Sep 2020 09:56 AM PDT  Illustration by Alex Castro / The Verge On Friday, it looked like the US was ready to ban new downloads of TikTok and WeChat, two popular China-based apps that the Trump administration warned posed security threats to American users. The Commerce Department issued an order that would have prohibited new downloads as of Sunday. And on Saturday WeChat in particular saw a sharp uptick in new installs in the US, according to analytics platform Sensor Tower, with an 800 percent week-over-week increase. But as of Sunday afternoon, each has received a reprieve from a US ban, at least temporarily. President Trump said Saturday he had given a deal between TikTok, Oracle, and Walmart his "blessing," prompting a one-week delay from the Commerce Department on TikTok's ban. And a judge in... |
| Judge blocks US ban on WeChat that was set to go into effect today Posted: 20 Sep 2020 06:48 AM PDT  Illustration by Alex Castro / The Verge A judge in California has blocked the Commerce Department's ban on new downloads of China-based messaging app WeChat, Reuters reported Sunday. US Magistrate Judge Laurel Beeler said in her order that WeChat users showed "serious questions going to the merits of the First Amendment claim, the balance of hardships tips in the plaintiffs' favor." On Friday, the Commerce Department outlined how the bans on WeChat and TikTok that President Trump had been threatening for months would work: Beginning today at midnight, US users would not be able to download the apps from Apple and Google's app stores. A tentative agreement appeared to be reached Saturday for a new TikTok entity, TikTok Global, part of a partnership with Oracle and Walmart, so... |
| The Verge’s favorite gadgets for coffee and tea Posted: 20 Sep 2020 06:00 AM PDT  I'm not sure about you, but one of the things that has been keeping many of us sane during these weird, not-so-wonderful times, is coffee and tea. Besides the caffeine energy lift (for those of us who take it with caffeine), the imbibing of hot liquids can be relaxing, while iced coffee or tea can be very refreshing. With that in mind, we've asked the staff of The Verge to tell us about their favorite coffee and tea brewers, grinders, and other paraphernalia. If you're also an enthusiast, we hope you'll enjoy looking over some of the gadgets that we enjoying using for our daily infusions. If you're not, maybe this will give you some ideas of things to try. Bialetti... |
