Disney and Sony Pictures have signed a multi-year "content licensing agreement" that will bring new Sony theatrical releases, starting with its 2022 films, to Disney-owned platforms. The deal also gives Disney the rights to many of Sony's older films, including Spider-Man titles — meaning that movies starring the web-slinger, which are notably absent from Disney Plus' collection of Marvel films, could eventually make their way to the streaming service.

Sony's theatrical releases from 2022 through 2026 are included in the deal, and Disney will get access to them following their "Pay 1 TV window." Starting in 2022, that window, which follows a film's theatrical and home video runs, will be owned by Netflix, thanks to a deal announced...

Capcom’s Resident Evil 4 VR remake launches later this year

Posted: 21 Apr 2021 03:40 PM PDT

Capcom

Facebook Reality Labs has offered more detail about a virtual reality remake of Resident Evil 4, following Capcom's original announcement last week. The game will launch later this year exclusively on Facebook's Oculus Quest 2 headset, although the exact date is still a mystery. As Capcom's first trailer indicated, it's a first-person VR adaptation of the 2005 third-person game, with a focus on making weapons and movement feel more natural with Oculus Touch motion controllers.

Resident Evil 4 for VR uses the game's original levels and animations, revamped with remastered textures, and Oculus says cutscenes will be rendered "in their original format." But developer Armature Studio has added VR-friendly locomotion options like the ability...

The US has a long way to go to make up for its part in the climate crisis

President Biden Delivers Remarks And Signs Executive Actions On Climate Change And Creating Jobs

The US plans to officially ratchet up its climate commitments going into Earth Day tomorrow, but many advocates are skeptical that it will be ambitious enough to balance out the nation's inordinate role in creating the climate crisis.

Biden is expected to commit the US to slashing its greenhouse gas emissions by at least half compared to what they were in 2005. That's already a significant ramp-up compared to the trajectory the US was on before. (Barack Obama committed the US to a roughly 27 percent cut by 2025.) But there's still somewhat of a mismatch between what the US is willing to commit to and what some say it owes to the rest of the world.

Bill Nelson backs NASA’s Moon plans, climate change work in confirmation hearing

Posted: 21 Apr 2021 03:20 PM PDT

Nelson smiles for cameras before his Senate confirmation hearing to be NASA's 14th administrator.

President Biden's pick for NASA administrator, former Sen. Bill Nelson, breezed through his Senate confirmation hearing on Wednesday, as expected. Facing questions from his "old buddies" about NASA's commercial partnerships, climate change, and workforce diversity, Nelson's hearing was uneventful and garnered bipartisan praise. He backed the agency's current plan to send its first crew of astronauts to the Moon on a SpaceX rocket and emphasized NASA's role in studying climate change.

Just over a month after being tapped by Biden for NASA chief, Nelson told lawmakers he supported the president's 2022 summary budget request for NASA and defended the $2.3 billion it set out for the agency's Earth sciences wing — a 15 percent increase from...

Hyundai stops making the Kona EV for South Korea after battery recall

Hyundai is discontinuing its first mass-market electric SUV, the Kona EV, in South Korea following a massive recall due to a fire risk in the battery pack, the Yonhap news agency reports. The automaker will instead turn its focus to the forthcoming Ioniq 5 (and the EVs that will follow it), though Hyundai will still sell the Kona EV in the United States, according to Roadshow.

More than a dozen reports of fires in Kona EV battery packs have been documented since 2019, and so this February, Hyundai finally decided to spend nearly $1 billion to recall 76,000 Kona EVs across its home country (though battery supplier LG Chem is contributing a big portion). It also recalled some Ioniq sedans and electric buses that used the same battery...

In the battle royale of battle royale games, there doesn't need to be a single winner. Call of Duty: Warzone now has 100 million players, the same number Apex Legends achieved just a week ago.

They can share a victory royale with Fortnite, with its 350 million-plus players (as of May 2020), as well as the original PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds, which has sold north of 70 million copies on console and PC, and its free-to-play PUBG Mobile variant reportedly raked in $5 billion last year ($7.4 million per day).

If you're counting, Warzone is growing faster than A...

Apple targeted in $50 million ransomware attack resulting in unprecedented schematic leaks

Posted: 21 Apr 2021 02:34 PM PDT

Apple has been targeted in a $50 million ransomware attack following the theft of a trove of engineering and manufacturing schematics of current and future products from Quanta, a Taiwan-based company that manufactures MacBooks and other products for Apple.

The leak, first reported by The Record, was carried out by REvil, a Russian hacking group that's also known by the name Sodinokibi. The group had already begun posting the stolen images on April 20th, timed specifically to coincide with Apple's latest "Spring Loaded" event, after Quanta refused to pay the $50 million ransom for the data. The group is now hoping to get Apple itself to pay up by May 1st, promising to continue to post new images from the leak daily until it does.

Brydge’s new keyboard for the M1 iPad makes it more MacBook-like than ever

Posted: 21 Apr 2021 02:00 PM PDT

Brydge is announcing a keyboard and trackpad accessory for the 12.9-inch iPad Pro (via 9to5Mac). Like the company's previous accessories, the Brydge 12.9 Max Plus will let you take your iPad from being a tablet to a laptop, just by connecting it to the accessory. With Apple's new M1-powered iPad Pro, some might already be thinking about using it to make a MacBook replacement, while others may just be excited for the way you can now neatly attach it via magnets.

The answer to whether this will help replace your MacBook with an iPad is more or less what it's always been: it depends on whether you can do all your work with what's available on iPadOS. The iPad Pro has been more powerful than a lot of MacBooks for years, but hardware is only...
