What this tragic merger looks like today will shock you Posted: 08 Sep 2020 03:42 PM PDT Taboola and Outbrain, best known as the rival chumbox providers who fill space on your favorite websites with garbage like "You Won't Believe What [NAME] Looks Like Today!" and the ever-popular "1 Weird Trick," will apparently not be merging into the ultimate source of low-quality web filler we'd feared ever since the Department of Justice saw fit to put its stamp of approval on the deal. CNBC, The Wall Street Journal and TechCrunch are all reporting that the merger, first announced in October 2019, is being called off, after an attempt to renegotiate changing conditions due to the COVID-19 pandemic didn't result in a new agreement. What a shame! If you're curious what a chumbox looks like, you won't have to look far. (Vox Media is not... |
Republicans pressure platforms with new 230 bill Posted: 08 Sep 2020 02:59 PM PDT Photo by Greg Nash-Pool/Getty Images A group of Senate Republicans introduced a new bill Tuesday aimed at chipping away some of the protections provided to social media companies through Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act. The Online Freedom and Viewpoint Diversity Act, introduced by Sens. Lindsey Graham (R-SC), Roger Wicker (R-MS), and Marsha Blackburn (R-TN), would strip away the liability protection provided by Section 230 if a platform restricted access to content without providing specific rules that it violated. The bill would require platforms to have an "objectively reasonable belief" that content violated a specific policy in order for it to be removed, or they could be held liable for their moderation actions. The bill would also amend language in the... |
Slack’s new recent status feature is roasting us for our many lunch breaks Posted: 08 Sep 2020 02:58 PM PDT Need to tell your co-workers you're taking lunch? Slack will now let you pick from your last five custom statuses so you don't have to type them (and find the right emoji) over and over again. That's it, that's the news — but it's already becoming a most welcome feature at The Verge, let me tell you. Except perhaps for the shaming:
At least Kaitlin's got lots of protein and fruit in her diet, unlike me (see top image). I may need to lay off the carbs a bit? The changes appear to be server-side, and they're new as of September — but contrary to what Slack's changelog says, we're... |
Waze now lets you send directions from your computer to your phone Posted: 08 Sep 2020 02:41 PM PDT Photo by Amelia Holowaty Krales / The Verge Google-owned mapping app Waze will now let you send directions from your computer to your phone. The process to do so was pretty straightforward in my brief testing (my personal phone is an iOS device). First log in to Waze on your phone, and then log in to Waze on a desktop browser by scanning a QR code with your phone's camera. Then, use the browser to get directions to where you want to go, and you'll see a button to save those directions to the app. Click that button and you'll get a notification on your phone from Waze. Tap that notification to start the directions on your phone. Google Maps has offered a similar feature for years, so it's nice to see Waze finally getting the functionality. Waze says that both Android and iOS users... |
Apple TV app now available on Vizio TVs Posted: 08 Sep 2020 02:01 PM PDT Image: Vizio The Apple TV app is now available on Vizio SmartCast TVs to customers in the US and Canada, Vizio announced today. With the app, you can access your library of movie and TV show rentals / purchases and also stream Apple's original content if you've got an Apple TV Plus subscription.

The Apple TV app also offers add-on subscriptions, Apple TV Channels, for other premium services like CBS All Access, Cinemax, Showtime, Starz, and more. You can watch content from your Apple TV Channels inside the Apple TV app — without being bounced between... |
The LG Wing could have a surprisingly thin flip-around screen, as shown in new leaks Posted: 08 Sep 2020 01:55 PM PDT Image: YouTube LG's upcoming "Wing" smartphone is expected to be a dual-screen device with a swiveling mechanism, and the screen that flips around could be surprisingly thin, as shown in new leaks of the phone. Take a look for yourself in this video — when this person, who appears to have the phone, shows a side profile of the device, you can see that the rotating screen appears to be quite thin: The video also gives us a good look at the Wing's swiveling mechanism in action, which allows one screen to rotate 90 degrees horizontally above another screen so they can align in a T-like shape. And in an image shared by leaker Evan Blass on his Patreon, you can get another peek of the thin-looking side profile of the device. Blass' image also indicates... |
Posted: 08 Sep 2020 01:16 PM PDT Illustration by Alex Castro / The Verge Netflix co-CEO Reed Hastings is still confident that 2021 will see more Netflix originals released than this year, but he is acknowledging that with the pandemic affecting production, especially in the United States, it won't be as many as previously predicted. Hastings sat down with many publications ahead of the launch of his new book, and one question that repeatedly came up is how Netflix is fairing with production on titles moving slower or stopping completely. Netflix is far from the only company encountering these issues, but the slowdown is still prevalent. Hastings says despite those obvious setbacks, the streamer is still on track to release more original films and series in 2021 than this year. "Next year, we've planned out... |
Samsung reportedly cutting off chip sales to Huawei Posted: 08 Sep 2020 12:56 PM PDT Photo by Jon Porter / The Verge Samsung and SK Hynix will reportedly stop selling components to Huawei as the Trump administration tightens sanctions on the Chinese phone maker. According to Chosun Ilbo and other Korean news outlets, the companies will suspend trade on September 15th, the day a new set of rules limits dealing with Huawei. These sanctions were introduced in August, following a string of other restrictions implemented since last year. They ban non-American companies from selling components that were developed with US technology unless these companies obtain special approval. This poses a serious threat to Huawei, which has said it may no longer be able to make its Kirin chipsets. Conversely, Huawei's business is valuable to many other companies, as it r... |
Apple will seek damages from Epic Games for breach of App Store contract Posted: 08 Sep 2020 12:14 PM PDT Illustration by Alex Castro / The Verge Apple will seek damages against Epic Games for allegedly breaching its contract with the iOS App Store, in a new escalation of the two companies' ongoing legal fight. The move came in a filing entered on Tuesday, alongside counterclaims for unjust enrichment and tortious interference with Apple's relationship with its customers. "Epic's flagrant disregard for its contractual commitments and other misconduct has caused significant harm to Apple," the filing reads. "Left unchecked, Epic's conduct threatens the very existence of the iOS ecosystem and its tremendous value to consumers." Epic Games sued Apple in August, after the company's hit game Fortnite was... |
Here’s how to view the Android 11 statue in AR Posted: 08 Sep 2020 11:53 AM PDT Google has officially announced Android 11, and the new operating system is already rolling out to Pixel phones. In honor of the release, Google has created a statue that you can view in augmented reality on any Android phone. Dave Burke, Android's VP of engineering, tweeted a picture of the virtual statue earlier this afternoon.
Android traditionally puts up a physical statue in Mountain View for each release — last year's was a large number 10 signed by the Android team. The 11 is the first Android... |
