| Facebook reportedly bracing for US election chaos with tools designed for “at-risk” countries Posted: 25 Oct 2020 01:54 PM PDT  Illustration by James Bareham / The Verge Facebook is planning for possible chaos around the November 3rd US presidential election with internal tools it's used before in countries like Sri Lanka and Myanmar, The Wall Street Journal reported. The plans may include slowing the spread of posts as they begin to go viral, altering the news feed algorithm to change what content users see, and changing the rules for what kind of content is dangerous and warrants removal. They're strategies Facebook has previously used in so-called "at-risk" countries dealing with mass ethnic unrest or political bloodshed. The tools would only be used in the event of election-related violence or other serious circumstances, according to the WSJ, but some employees at the company said they were... |
| New Trailers: Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom, The Prom, News of the World, and more Posted: 25 Oct 2020 12:00 PM PDT  Chadwick Boseman stars in Ma Rainey's Black Bottom | Netflix So in between catching up with episodes of Grace and Frankie and watching the presidential debate, I tried to watch the new Netflix version of Rebecca, which is exactly the kind of flick I am usually 100 percent here for. I couldn't figure out why I wasn't able to really get into it, but I think Josh Rivera's review really nails it: it's kind of a boring take on the story. It's a beautiful-looking movie, but idk, none of the characters — except maybe Kristen Scott Thomas's Mrs. Danvers— has much depth. I'm about three-quarters of the way through it and still waiting to feel the sense of dread I did reading the novel. Maybe the final act will bring it home? In any event, there are a lot of great new trailers to check out this week, so... |
| Chrome OS may finally be getting a dark mode Posted: 25 Oct 2020 09:20 AM PDT  Illustration by Alex Castro / The Verge Chrome OS may finally be getting a dark mode, but so far it's only been spotted in its experimental Canary channel, Android Central reported. Before you go tinkering with Canary just be advised: Canary is Google's "bleeding edge" Chrome OS path, which receives daily updates of features before they've been widely tested. It can only be accessed from Chromebooks switched into a special developer mode (not to be confused with the Chrome OS Developer channel). Google warns that Canary can be "unstable." But at the moment, to activate dark mode on your Chromebook, you need to have the Canary channel installed. Once you've done that, Android Central says you just open Chrome and type in chrome://flags/#enable-force-dark and c... |
| PayPal cuts ties with domain registrar Epik over digital currency Posted: 25 Oct 2020 08:30 AM PDT  Illustration by Alex Castro / The Verge PayPal has terminated the account of domain registrar and web hosting company Epik for violating its "risk controls," prompting angry letters and blog posts from Epik alleging conservative bias was to blame, Mashable reported. Seattle-based Epik is perhaps best known for its support of right-wing social media site Gab. The site was banned by its hosting company, domain registrar, and PayPal in 2018, after it was discovered that the alleged shooter at a Pittsburgh synagogue had written anti-Semitic tirades on Gab. In a 2018 blog post, Epik CEO Robert Monster criticized what he called the "digital censorship" by other sites. According to Mashable, the issue that got Epik kicked off PayPal has to do with Epik's digital "alternative... |
| Samsung chairman Lee Kun-hee dies at 78 Posted: 24 Oct 2020 08:33 PM PDT  Photo by Chung Sung-Jun/Getty Images Samsung Electronics has announced the death of its chairman, Lee Kun-hee. The company says he died on October 25th with family including his son, vice-chairman Lee Jae-yong, at his side. He was 78. A cause of death was not given, but Lee had been incapacitated for many years after suffering a heart attack in 2014, causing him to withdraw from public life. Lee Jae-yong, also known as Jay Y. Lee, had been widely assumed to take over upon his father's passing and has been viewed as the de facto leader in recent years.
