| FTC Report Calls Out Manufacturers on Their Anti-Competitive Repair Policies Posted: 07 May 2021 08:20 AM PDT  After nearly two long years of waiting, the Federal Trade Commission released its "Nixing the Fix" report on restrictions employed by manufacturers on product repairs. Folks, it does not mince words, saying there is "scant evidence" justifying the obstacles companies put in place to limit consumers' options when it… |
| Army of the Dead Almost Featured a Whole Zombified Zoo Posted: 07 May 2021 08:00 AM PDT  Along with thinking, organized zombies, Zack Snyder's living mercenaries in the upcoming Army of the Dead will have to deal with at least one undead white tiger as they venture into the overrun ruins of Las Vegas in search of $200 million dollars stashed in an abandoned casino. The idea of an army of zombies having an… |
| 6 Mammal Body Parts That Look Like They Were Stolen From Other Animals Posted: 07 May 2021 07:50 AM PDT  Mammals have a pretty basic blueprint. Among other things, we give birth to live young, we're warm-blooded, and, perhaps most obviously, we all have hair. (Yes, even dolphins.) But in the churn of natural selection, some mammals ended up with appendages that look like they should be found on a reptile, bird, or… |
| Alabama Coal Mine Seems to Be Leaking Pollution While Its Workers Are on Strike Posted: 07 May 2021 07:47 AM PDT  It's sunny and in the mid-70s in Tuscaloosa County, Alabama right now. Normally, that would be prime conditions for a swim in Davis Creek or Texas Creek. But right now, both are running black, full of thick wastewater runoff. |
| Minnesota Republicans Hold State Parks, Museums, Zoos Hostage Over EV Fight Posted: 07 May 2021 06:53 AM PDT  In Minnesota, a fight is playing out over electric vehicles. It got so heated this week that Republican lawmakers threatened to not pass a budget that would allow parks, zoos, and museums—you know, largely outdoor places people can congregate safely if not vaccinated or live their best post-pandemic lives—to open this… |
| Hacker Miraculously Shrinks a Nintendo Wii to the Size of a Game Boy Posted: 07 May 2021 06:39 AM PDT If you're going to miniaturize and portabilize a Wii, it only makes sense to draw inspiration from Nintendo's own handheld consoles for the finished. So YouTube's 'StonedEdge' created their Wii SPii with a folding screen design reminiscent of the Game Boy Advance SP, but with considerably more horsepower under the… |
| Dave Bautista Thinks Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 Could Be the End for Drax Posted: 07 May 2021 06:21 AM PDT  Tenet's John David Washington is teaming up with Gareth Edwards for a mysterious new sci-fi project. Get a teasery new look at the characters of The Green Knight. Black Lightning prepares for its finale. Plus, what's coming on The Flash, and F9 teases, well, carnage. To me, my spoilers! |
| This Thin and Light Asus Laptop Checks Every Box and Then Some Posted: 07 May 2021 05:00 AM PDT  Every time a new thin, light laptop comes across my desk, I become more resigned to the fact that it's time to move on from my now 5-year-old gaming laptop. I'm careening toward middle age, and I need a practical, portable machine to keep my hips in their sockets. (I feel old, OK?) My desktop will always have a… |
| Popular Smoke Alarms Recalled Over Failure to Alert During Fire Posted: 07 May 2021 03:00 AM PDT  The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission has recalled several models of Kidde-brand TruSense smoke alarms and carbon monoxide detectors sold in 2019 and 2020 according to a press release from the government agency. The alarms may fail to alert people in the event of a fire, which is kind of the whole point of the… |
| On The Bad Batch, Choosing When to Fight Is a Family Matter Posted: 07 May 2021 12:01 AM PDT  In the age of Star Wars' Rebellion, deciding whether or not to rise up against the Empire is often seen as a clear-cut decision: will you be a hero, or will you shy away from a duty all good people should aspire to? But in The Bad Batch's exploration of the Empire's earliest days, choosing why to fight or not becomes… |
| Critics Are Panning This New Pizza Vending Machine in Rome Posted: 06 May 2021 09:18 PM PDT  The idea of a pizza vending machine doesn't sound half bad, but setting up one in Italy, where they practically invented pizza? Now that's a recipe for disaster. |
| If You Use Twitter's New Tip Jar Feature, Make Sure You Don't Accidentally Send People Your Address Posted: 06 May 2021 08:35 PM PDT  If you decide you're game enough to use Twitter's new feature to send strangers on the internet money, do your best not to accidentally send them your residential address, too. |
| Posted: 06 May 2021 06:13 PM PDT  It seems like every internet meme is getting the NFT treatment these days. The latest is "David After Dentist," one of YouTube's earliest viral videos. In 2008, David DeVore recorded his then-seven-year-old son, David Jr., babbling now-iconic lines like "Is this real life?" in a medication-fueled haze after a tooth… |
| George A. Romero's 'Lost' Film Has a Trailer, and It's the Weirdest Thing You'll See All Day Posted: 06 May 2021 05:30 PM PDT  Horror streamer Shudder adds another feather to its cap—and a curiosity object to its "Summer of Chills" programming—with George A. Romero's The Amusement Park. The film is a 52-minute oddity the director shot between Night of the Living Dead and Dawn of the Dead, and thought lost for nearly 50 years. |
| Sailor Moon Eternal's New Trailer Is a Stunning Take on the Dream Arc Posted: 06 May 2021 05:00 PM PDT  The long-awaited Sailor Moon Eternal films are finally making their streaming debut outside of Japan, and the newest trailer for the double feature promises a gorgeous new take on one of the Sailor Scouts' most compelling arcs. |
| Peloton Tread Could Relaunch This Summer, but the More Dangerous Tread+ Is a Bigger Problem Posted: 06 May 2021 03:29 PM PDT  After recalling both of its treadmills, Tread and Tread+, Peloton is working on fixes to get the machines back on the market. One, a software update that will require a pin passcode to unlock the treadmills, will roll out in the coming days. But hardware fixes will also be necessary for both machines, and Peloton… |
| They're Just Letting Everybody Into the Hellfire Gala, Apparently Posted: 06 May 2021 03:15 PM PDT  The X-Men's upcoming Hellfire Gala is both an extravagant celebration of Krakoa's newfound ascendance in the world, and a bold statement to humanity that the mutants come in peace but are not to be messed with. At least that was the vibe one could have easily gotten from all the fuss Marvel's been making about the… |
| Researchers Discover Peaceful Turtle Playground in the Sargasso Sea Posted: 06 May 2021 03:08 PM PDT  Off the coast of Florida lie marigold meadows floating in the ocean; they're trails of sargassum, a seaweed that bobs on the surface of the water. Amid those frilly ocean mats, young sea turtles grow up, learning about life in an oasis protected from predators. |

| A New Printer Uses Sawdust to Print Wooden Objects Posted: 06 May 2021 02:10 PM PDT  A new printer called Forust is using scrap wood to 3D print wooden objects that are as structurally sound as regular carved wood. Created by Andrew Jeffery and a team of researchers at Desktop Metal, the printer prints using fine sawdust that is formed into solid objects. |
