Now that The Falcon and the Winter Soldier has wrapped and we're still a few weeks away from the debut of Loki, Marvel has released a behind-the-scenes video on its YouTube channel detailing the CGI effects that made it look like Sam Wilson (Anthony Mackie) was flying through the air as Falcon [minor spoilers ahead if you haven't watched the show yet].

Eric Leven, VFX Supervisor for Falcon, breaks down a couple of the show's key scenes. including the mid-air chase scene from the series' first episode.

"What I really wanted to do for the big action sequences was, as much as possible, make things feel like they're grounded in reality," Leven explains. "Obviously, we don't have Anthony Mackie flying around in a real jet pack with real...

Who is Elon Musk?

Oh, come on.

Seriously!

Fine. He's the CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, the founder of The Boring Company and Neuralink, a certified member of the PayPal Mafia, and a well-known internet troll.

He sounds rich.

He is. Depending on where the market closes on Friday, he's either the first or the second richest person in the world. The other contender is Jeff Bezos. A substantial part of both men's net worth is tied up in their company stock.

Okay. What is Saturday Night Live?

Saturday Night Live is an American television show that has been on the air since 1975. It is in a sketch comedy format. There is usually at least one good sketch in each 90-minute episode, and it is often the digital short.

This pandemic has taken millions of lives around the world — and researchers are realizing that the true death toll may be much higher than the official numbers we see every day.

As of May 3rd, the death toll in the US officially stood at 574,043, but a new analysis published this week by the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME) estimates that the actual toll is 905,289. IHME is a health research center based at the University of Washington that specializes in measuring global health on a population level. Its new analysis estimates that the global death toll due to COVID-19 stands at 6.93 million, not 3.24 million.

The key word here is "estimate." The researchers looked at countries around the world that reported deaths...

It's not yet clear whether the attack targeted Colonial's industrial control systems, or if the attack was carried out by foreign government hackers. The...
