Amazon is in talks to buy MGM for $9 billion Posted: 17 May 2021 06:20 PM PDT ![]() James Bond, The Handmaid's Tale, Rocky, Stargate, Robocop, Legally Blonde, Vikings, a historic catalog of films dating back many decades, an array of production and distribution companies, and the content network Epix — these are the things that Amazon might own if it buys storied film giant MGM for billions of dollars in the very near future. Amazon has reportedly offered $9 billion for the company, according to Variety, following a scoop from The Information earlier in the day that suggested a range of $7-10 billion for a potential deal, and Variety suggests that $9 billion was also the amount that MGM was reportedly hoping to get. Between those factors, the fact that MGM has been up for sale since December 2020, and the jealousy that... |
Here are the best Kindle deals right now Posted: 17 May 2021 06:02 PM PDT ![]() When it comes to finding a device to use to read your ebooks, you have a few options to choose from. You can always buy a tablet or simply use your smartphone, but those devices are multipurpose and can be used for a ton of things, like surfing the web or doom-scrolling through Twitter. If you are looking for something to strictly read books, e-readers, while a niche piece of tech, are designed to store all of your books in a virtual library with no other functionality. Amazon has dominated the space for years with its Kindle products. Right now, there are three Kindle models you can choose from, each with pros and cons. Below, we've listed each of the current Kindles available for purchase. Sometimes, there isn't a deal for one or, in... |
Apple HomePod and HomePod mini can’t play lossless Apple Music, either Posted: 17 May 2021 05:46 PM PDT ![]() Today, we learned that Apple's ultra-premium $550 AirPods Max headphones aren't ready for the new lossless audio catalog coming to Apple Music next month — and they're not alone. Apple confirms to The Verge that the HomePod and HomePod mini won't support lossless audio, either. (MacRumors confirmed the same thing with sources earlier this afternoon.) The good news is that the HomePod and HomePod mini will indeed support the company's new spacial audio experiences, which are supposed to provide more immersive audio than a standard stereo or virtual surround mix — we were fairly intrigued trying spacial audio on the AirPods Pro, and it's also coming to Apple Music next month in a bigger way. And, Apple says, it's not like any of these... |

Oculus’ latest Quest update lets you record gameplay and yourself at the same time Posted: 17 May 2021 05:17 PM PDT ![]() Oculus will soon roll out its v29 software for Quest and Quest 2 headsets, and this one adds more features and functionality to the lineup. The most exciting one is a new Live Overlay casting feature that will give you an easy way to capture a view of you using VR superimposed over the content displayed in first-person within your headset. Any VR app that supports casting and recording will work with this feature, according to Oculus. All you'll need is at least an iPhone XS or newer, a Quest headset, and the Oculus app for iOS updated to a new version that's coming to "a subset of users." Then you turn on the feature and have someone aim the camera at you (or aim it at yourself). If this sounds familiar, you might be thinking of O... |
London’s electric scooter trials will kick off on June 7th Posted: 17 May 2021 04:01 PM PDT ![]() London's long-awaited electric scooter trials will begin next month on June 7th, the city's transport authority and local councils announced today. Three scooter companies have been selected to offer rentals for up to 12 months as part of the pilot program: Dott, Lime, and Tier. Privately owned electric scooters will continue to be illegal to ride on streets. The selected companies will initially offer scooters to rent across six boroughs and local authorities in London: Ealing, Hammersmith and Fulham, Kensington and Chelsea, Richmond upon Thames, the City of London, and Canary Wharf. While rentals will not be available in Tower Hamlets, Londoners will be able to ride their rented scooters through the borough. Lambeth and Southwark... |
Fox is making a blockchain animated series with Rick and Morty creator Dan Harmon to sell you NFTs Posted: 17 May 2021 03:22 PM PDT ![]() Fox has announced its upcoming animated comedy Krapopolis, from Rick and Morty creator Dan Harmon, will be "the first-ever animated series curated entirely on the Blockchain." The company plans to try to generate buzz for the show with its own brand-new NFT company dubbed Blockchain Creative Labs, THR reports. Fox Entertainment CEO Charlie Collier told advertisers during its upfronts presentation on Monday that "as an advertiser-focused, artist-first and animation-obsessed company, Fox is going to take advertisers into the world of Blockchain-powered tokens, including NFTs." It will launch a dedicated marketplace for Krapopolis, a show set in mythical ancient Greece "centered on a flawed family of humans, gods, and monsters that tries... |
Google is teasing a big Wear OS update for smartwatches tomorrow at I/O Posted: 17 May 2021 02:45 PM PDT ![]() A new tweet from the official Wear OS Twitter account is teasing an update tomorrow at I/O 2021 to Google's frequently forgotten smartwatch operating system. Google has even suggested that the developer conference will feature an entirely new version of Wear OS on the I/O Adventure page, the "virtual sandbox" for trying the products Google will announce at the conference, 9to5Google writes. Wear OS has been on a long and bumpy journey up until this point — with new features, but not the dramatic rethinking of the platform that it may need. In the last year, Google has added a new keyboard, support for third-party Tiles (Wear OS's answer to glanceable widget-like information), and improvements to performance. But the last major design... |
Hugo Barra is leaving Facebook Posted: 17 May 2021 02:15 PM PDT ![]() Facebook's vice president of AR and VR Hugo Barra is leaving the company, he announced (where else) on Facebook Monday. "Today is my last day at Facebook Reality Labs, after 4 years working on projects that have been more exciting and more challenging than anything I've encountered in my career, with some of the brightest minds and kindest people I've ever had the pleasure to meet," Barra wrote in the post. He said he planned to "explore the healthcare technology space," so he could apply what he had learned in consumer tech to solve problems in health care. "I believe society is still poorly equipped with the tools people need to really understand our health and gain control over our health outcomes," he wrote. After serving as G... |
EV startup Canoo under SEC investigation Posted: 17 May 2021 02:12 PM PDT ![]() The Securities and Exchange Commission has opened an investigation into newly public electric vehicle startup Canoo, CEO Tony Aquila shared on a conference call on Monday. The probe is broad, though the startup said in a regulatory filing that the SEC has characterized it as a "fact-finding inquiry," and that the agency has not yet concluded whether anyone violated the law. It covers Canoo's merger with a special purpose acquisition company (or SPAC), plus its "operations, business model, revenues, revenue strategy, customer agreements, earnings and other related topics, along with the recent departures of certain of the Company's officers." Canoo says it plans to provide all requested material and fully cooperate. Aquila declined to... |
