LG is exiting the smartphone business, the company confirmed today. The decision will "enable the company to focus resources in growth areas such as electric vehicle components, connected devices, smart homes, robotics, artificial intelligence and business-to-business solutions, as well as platforms and services," LG said in a statement.

Existing phones will remain on sale, and LG says it'll continue to support its products "for a period of time which will vary by region." The company hasn't said anything about possible layoffs except that "details related to employment will be determined at the local level." LG says it expects to have completed the business' closure by the end of July this year.

The move has been rumored for several...

Hyundai's luxury vehicle brand Genesis used 3,281 drones to create its logo over Shanghai's skyline on March 29th in celebration of the brand's arrival in China. That number of drones sets a new Guinness World Record for "The Most Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) airborne simultaneously," according to a Genesis press release.

You can see a picture of the Genesis logo formation at the top of this post. Genesis also made a video that showed off some additional drone formations, including a hand, two of the company's cars, and... a double helix?

Genesis' record edges out the previous one held by Shenzhen Damoda Intelligent Control Technology, which used 3,051 drones in a display on September 20th. Here's a video of that display, which I...

TiMi Studios, the Tencent-owned developer of huge mobile hits Call of Duty: Mobile and the MOBA Honor of Kings, earned a staggering $10 billion in revenue in 2020, according to an April 1st Reuters report.

Reuters' article says those earnings make TiMi the "world's largest developer," according to its sources. While it's unclear exactly what metric that is defining, it's a undoubtably a huge number. For comparison, Activision Blizzard (which publishes the Call of Duty franchise) posted 2020 revenues of $8.09 billion, nearly $2 billion less than TiMi's reported $10 billion.

While TiMi might not be a household name, its games are some of the biggest in the world. Call of Duty: Mobile...

Hi, it's Jay, and I'm holding down the fort for Kim today, which means I get to do a trailer roundup. I apparently picked a good week to take this responsibility, as there were a lot of good trailers to pick from — it seems like media companies are gearing up for a big year in movies and TV shows.

Let's get right into it.

Black Widow

My wife and I spent the first part of this year watching the entire Marvel Cinematic Universe, and as we got further along, we couldn't believe that Scarlett Johansson's Black Widow didn't have her own movie yet. So as you might expect, we're very excited to see Black Widow, especially after the new trailer that came out on Saturday.

Black Widow will debut on July 9th in theaters and on Disney Plus as a $30...

NASA’s Mars rover drops off Ingenuity helicopter ahead of historic flight

NASA's Perseverance rover, which is currently roaming around Mars, has dropped off the mini helicopter Ingenuity ahead of the four-pound aircraft's historic first flight.

Ingenuity dropped four inches from the belly of Perseverance to the surface of Mars. While four inches might not seem like a very big drop, getting Ingenuity to successfully stick the landing is still a significant milestone, as the helicopter had to go through a multi-day process of flipping from a horizontal position on the rover to a vertical position before it was set down. (It also had to survive a seven-month trip through space to get to Mars. NBD.)

Personal data from 533 million Facebook accounts has reportedly leaked online for free, according to security researcher Alon Gal. Insider said it verified several of the leaked records.

"The exposed data includes personal information of over 533 million Facebook users from 106 countries, including over 32 million records on users in the US, 11 million on users in the UK, and 6 million on users in India," according to Insider. "It includes their phone numbers, Facebook IDs, full names, locations, birthdates, bios, and — in some cases — email addresses."

If that 533 million number might sound familiar to you, that's because this information is apparently from the same dataset that people could pay for portions of using a Telegram bot,...

The visual jazz of Genesis Noir

Posted: 04 Apr 2021 07:00 AM PDT

Genesis Noir is set at the start of existence, reimagining the Big Bang and the natural expansion of the universe as the violent end result of a love triangle gone wrong. It's a marriage of jazz and film noir in a point-and-click adventure game that sometimes works better as an audiovisual plaything than it does a series of puzzles. But the game's visual style is a clear standout.

The monochromatic, abstract, line-drawn look that makes Genesis Noir so unique comes from a host of influences: classic film, Italian literature, other indie games. The real mystery to solve was combining those ideas in a way that makes sense — and it actually ended in a playable game.

Genesis Noir creative lead Evan Anthony's jumping-off point was Cosmicomics,...
