Many major streamers support advertising in some form or another — think Hulu, HBO Max, or Sling TV as just a few examples — but Disney's chief says the company's marquee service won't be adding ads to its service anytime soon.

Speaking at the Credit Suisse 23rd Annual Communications Conference on Tuesday, Disney head Bob Chapek was asked by moderator and Credit Suisse managing director Doug Mitchelson whether the service planned to introduce an ad-supported entry tier at some point down the line. While he didn't entirely dismiss the concept of a cheaper ad-supported tier on Disney Plus, Chapek said it wasn't something the company was currently planning for.

"We're always reevaluating how we go to market across the world, but we've got...

Owners of the original Oculus Quest will get the ability to stream from their PCs to their headsets wirelessly, using the Air Link system that's been available to Quest 2 owners for a few months. When the feature was originally announced, it was an open question as to when the first-gen headset would get it (or if it even would), but under a post about the v30 update for Quest, Mark Zuckerberg said that Air Link would be coming "soon."

In the post itself, he also shows off being able to use multiple windows to multitask in Oculus Home, which acts as a virtual environment. In the video, he opens three windows at once, creating an environment not...

Noctua’s long-awaited passive CPU cooler is here

Posted: 15 Jun 2021 03:36 PM PDT

Noctua is known for making mighty quiet PC fans, and now it has a CPU cooler that doesn't need a fan at all. Two years after announcing a passive heatsink potent enough to keep a Core i9-9900K CPU in check, the dead-silent Noctua NH-P1 (via VideoCardz) has finally gone on sale today for $110. It's an absolute unit at 1.2 kilograms (2.6 pounds).

According to the company's delightfully ASMR build video below (via PC Gamer), the final product's six soldered heatpipes and thick fins are good enough to run a Core i9-11900K near its TDP of 125W, and even give you a slight overclock to 3.6GHz, though it'll heavily depend on your case and other components that might also generate heat. The company has a whole set of setup guidelines, a CPU...

Dish has some ambitious targets ahead of it as it prepares to launch its own 5G network. | Illustration by Alex Castro / The Verge

With the clock ticking down toward its deployment goal this fall, Dish Network has launched a website with more information on its forthcoming 5G network. There's not much to the site — just a slightly cryptic name (Project Gene5is) and a link to sign up for a notification when the service is available in your area. Its appearance was first reported by Axios, and there's no mention of it or the Project Gene5is name on Dish's main wireless network page. Still, it's an indication that Dish is moving in the right direction toward a network launch, which it needs to do if it's going to hit its ambitious targets.

Dish has promised to bring its under-development 5G network to life later this summer starting with Las Vegas. That's just the...

Philanthropist MacKenzie Scott announces Series C investment in ordinary human beings

Posted: 15 Jun 2021 02:09 PM PDT

MacKenzie Scott, whose estimated fortune stands somewhere around $60 billion, announced via a Medium post today that she would be parting with a $2.7 billion portion of that wealth and distributing it to 286 groups, all of which are painstakingly named and linked at the end of her note.

This third and latest gift brings Scott's total charitable contributions to society to around $8.5 billion in the past year alone — making her one of the planet's most generous billionaires. The amount puts her well ahead of the lifetime gifts doled out by the likes of Facebook's Mark Zuckerberg ($2.7 billion), Michael Dell of his eponymous computer corporation ($2.25 billion), Microsoft's Steve Ballmer ($1.4 billion), or eBay's Pierre Omidyar ($1.3...

Sir Tim Berners-Lee is selling the first web browser’s code as an NFT

Posted: 15 Jun 2021 01:46 PM PDT

Sir Tim Berners-Lee, one of the architects of the World Wide Web, is selling the source code to the original web browser as an NFT (via the BBC). The auction, being run by Sotheby's, will not only include the code for the WorldWideWeb browser, but also a letter from Berners-Lee himself, a vector file that could be printed as a poster, and a 30-minute silent video that depicts the code being typed out. According to a press release from Sotheby's, the proceeds will benefit causes supported by Berners-Lee and his wife.

The code up for auction contains elements of the web that many of us are familiar with today, including functions to parse and display HTML documents, rudimentary styling support, the HTTP protocol, and even the ability to...

Lordstown Motors has stopped working on an electric van and other future projects in order to aim all resources at putting its first vehicle, a pickup truck called Endurance, into production later this year. The startup previously announced in March that it was accelerating work on the van, but it has struggled since then, with CEO Steve Burns and CFO Julio Rodriguez resigning this week after an investigation into misleading claims about preorders for the Endurance.

Burns previously billed the van as a "high-top" recreational vehicle with up to 350 miles of range. He said that it would be the "first mass produced all-electric RV," and that Lordstown Motors believed "there will be many commercial use cases for an electric van of this size...

Amazon’s COVID-19 test is now available to consumers

Posted: 15 Jun 2021 12:07 PM PDT

Amazon is selling its own COVID-19 test kit directly to customers. Results from the test will appear on an Amazon diagnostics website that was originally designed for use by Amazon employees. The test's public availability was first reported by Stat News.

The test is on sale for $39.99 and has one-day shipping through Prime in some areas of the US.

To use the test, a patient swabs their own nose at home and places it in a box with a prepaid shipping return label. The swabs are then sent to a centralized lab. Amazon got the Food and Drug Administration's sign-off on its COVID-19 test kit in March. At the time, it planned to use the test for its onsite employee testing program.

At-home medical testing got a new burst of attention over...
