| If Twitter’s dark mode has recently changed for you, you’re not alone Posted: 03 Feb 2021 05:30 PM PST  The feeling of opening Twitter and noticing that something's off probably isn't a new one, but it usually isn't related to the site's color scheme. Yet some users (and Verge staff) are now seeing that Twitter's desktop dark mode has gotten darker, or worse, been changed to light mode. Twitter tells The Verge that the change from blue to black was intentional — it's part of an update to make the Twitter website respond to the light and dark modes on your OS. Of course, if you miss the dark blue, you can bring it back by going to Twitter's display settings and choosing Dim mode (instead of the inky black Lights Out or the bright Default), and the site should remember that preference. If your Twitter switched from dark mode to light,... |
| Amazon Alexa can now help find a COVID test or ruin your morning with Minions Posted: 03 Feb 2021 04:51 PM PST  Amazon added a few abilities to Alexa last month, introducing a variety of Super Bowl-related skills and the ability to do home automation on its own, but today the company's telling us about some new alarm and COVID skills that snuck under the radar. You've been able to set custom alarms and alarm sounds using Alexa devices for a while now, but now you can do it with Minion sounds, if you just haven't been waking up angry enough. The sounds include such classics as "Peep Peep Peep", "Banana," or "Boing Boing Boing!" Lovely. There are now a variety of branded alarms available for Alexa, including sounds from Disney, Spongebob, Jurassic World, and Harry Potter. They can be set by saying "Alexa, wake me up to Minions/Jurassic... |
| Don’t buy Teslas during a production ramp, Elon Musk says Posted: 03 Feb 2021 04:48 PM PST  The quality of Tesla's cars suffers any time the company dramatically scales up production, CEO Elon Musk admitted in a February 2nd interview. Musk also said that Tesla was making cars so fast near the end of 2020 that it was messing up the paint jobs. Tesla has gotten a lot of criticism for the quality of its cars, especially after it started making them at relatively high volumes with the Model 3 and Model Y. But in the interview with industry analyst Sandy Munro, Musk was unusually candid about quality control problems. "It took us a while to kind of iron out the production process. Friends ask me: 'When should I buy a Tesla?' And I'm like: 'Well, either buy it right at the beginning, or when the production reaches a steady state,'"... |
| Posted: 03 Feb 2021 03:47 PM PST  After his social media platform was largely wiped off the web, Parler CEO and co-founder John Matze says he has been fired by his company's own board of directors, according to a memo obtained by Fox News and The Wall Street Journal and a text message confirmation he sent to Reuters. His LinkedIn page shows an employment end date of January 2021. Parler, of course, is the social network that found itself wholly deplatformed after its role in the January 6th riots at the US Capitol. Both Apple and Google removed the app from their app stores after being unsatisfied with the company's attempts to moderate the spread of calls for violence. Amazon decided to terminate the company's AWS website hosting completely. And though Parler did try to... |
| Amazon plans to install always-on surveillance cameras in its delivery vehicles Posted: 03 Feb 2021 02:30 PM PST  Amazon plans to install high-tech video cameras in its delivery vehicles in order to better monitor the behavior of drivers as they deliver packages, according to a new report from The Information. The hardware and software will be supplied by Netradyne, a California company behind a platform called Driveri that uses cameras and artificial intelligence to analyze a driver as they operate the vehicle. The camera then gives real-time feedback — including automated suggestions like "distracted driving" and "please slow down" — while collecting analysis that is used to later evaluate drivers during their shifts. |
| Check out these new videos from Super Nintendo World in Japan Posted: 03 Feb 2021 02:27 PM PST  Today, the fan site Universal Parks News Today dropped a slew of videos from inside Japan's Super Nintendo World that show what the whole experience of going to the park is like. It's a cool look at what's sure to be a very popular post-COVID destination for Nintendo fans. From what I can tell, the park seems stuffed with people and attractions. It looks surprisingly normal, though everyone is wearing a mask. They went on every ride! They tried all the food! It's guaranteed to make you want to go yourself. What's a little stranger is the videos show the park stuffed with people, but it's not supposed to be open yet. The original plan was to open the Osaka park on February 4th, 2021, but a state of emergency was declared. Universal... |
| Here are the best Apple Watch deals right now Posted: 03 Feb 2021 02:27 PM PST  Thinking about picking up a new Apple Watch? It's never a bad idea to wait until there's a good deal, and thankfully, those happen with some regularity. There are currently three models to choose from, all of which support watchOS 7. The latest model, and the highest end, is the Apple Watch Series 6 with GPS and Wi-Fi connectivity, which starts at $399. If that's a little too expensive, you can drop about $120 off the price by buying an Apple Watch SE, which also launched this fall. Finally, the three-year-old Series 3 is the most affordable Apple Watch model to date. It has a starting retail price of $199, but it frequently goes on sale. If you're looking for something to last a few years, though, it's probably worth looking at one of... |
| Comcast is delaying its rollout of 1.2TB data caps that would have hit 12 states in March Posted: 03 Feb 2021 02:25 PM PST  If you live in one of the twelve states where Comcast is planning to roll out 1.2TB data caps, we have some moderately good news: you won't have to start monitoring your bill for extra charges until July. The ISP had planned to start charging customers $10-and-up fees for using more than 1.2TB of data starting this March, but the rollout has been delayed (via The Washington Post). This gives us a few more months until the scourge of Comcast home internet data caps are truly nationwide. The areas affected are in Comcast's Northeast region: Connecticut, Delaware, Massachusetts, Maryland, Maine, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Virginia, Vermont, West Virginia, and the District of Columbia, as well as parts of North... |
| Distressing animation captures a whale’s struggle to avoid ship strikes Posted: 03 Feb 2021 02:21 PM PST  An eye-catching animation ricocheted across Twitter this week, showing the struggles of a single blue whale as it tried to avoid crowds of shipping vessels in the Corcovado Gulf. The animation accompanied a study published in the journal Nature this week examining the overlapping paths of ships and blue whales in the waters off Chilean Patagonia. Whales, including the one featured in the video, were tagged and tracked for up to three months as they moved through the gulf. The tracking data was then compared against vessel traffic patterns from a Chilean database. The scientists say their results point to a need for more protective measures, including speed regulations, to prevent ships from hitting whales in the area.

| Instagram is working on a TikTok-style vertical feed for Stories Posted: 03 Feb 2021 02:10 PM PST  Instagram might try to emulate another element of TikTok's design with a new vertical feed for Stories, TechCrunch reports. Navigating with vertical swipes up and down would make stories behave more like Reels, the shortform video feature the company added to better compete with TikTok. The vertical stories feed is not currently being tested, Instagram confirmed to TechCrunch, but code for the change is already in development based on this screenshot developer Alessandro Paluzzi shared. It's not much to go on, but it does show Instagram is at least considering the adjustment to its ever-expanding features.
