| Peloton’s app indicates a rowing machine may finally be coming Posted: 20 Aug 2021 06:05 PM PDT  Peloton's rumored rowing machine may finally be on the way, according to text that 9to5Google discovered in the Peloton Android app. When looking through the app's code, 9to5 discovered references to the rowing machine we've been hearing about for the past couple of years — including instructions on how to do a rowing stroke, as well as language suggesting Peloton will offer real-world water scenery that people could view on a screen while rowing. Bloomberg wrote about plans for a Peloton rower nearly two and a half years ago. More recently, there have been job listings mentioning a rower, and Peloton's CEO has made multiple comments about rowers and rowing. If information about the rower is starting to show up in the app's code,... |
| Google has already discontinued the Pixel 5 Posted: 20 Aug 2021 05:50 PM PDT  Amidst the news of a new Pixel phone this week, Google quietly indicated that it's the end of the road for two other Pixel devices: the Pixel 4A 5G and the Pixel 5. Both are currently listed on Google's online store as sold out, and remaining stock at other retailers likely won't last long. A company spokesperson offered the following statement:
It's not too surprising that the 4A 5G being discontinued given that the 5A 5G looks to be a fairly direct successor. However, it is a little... |
| Facebook suppressed report that made it look bad Posted: 20 Aug 2021 04:22 PM PDT  On Wednesday, Facebook released a report about what content was most viewed by people in the US last quarter. It was the first time it had released such a report. But according to The New York Times, Facebook was working on a similar report for the first quarter of 2021 that it opted not to share because it might have reflected poorly on the company. The New York Times, which obtained a copy of the report, says that the most-viewed link in the first quarter had a headline that could promote COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy, which has been an issue on the social media platform. The headline read, "A 'healthy' doctor died two weeks after getting a COVID-19 vaccine; CDC is investigating why." The article was published by The South Florida Sun... |
| OnlyFans shares its new policy banning sexually explicit content Posted: 20 Aug 2021 03:09 PM PDT  On Thursday the video and image sharing site OnlyFans announced plans to ban "sexually-explicit content" starting October 1st. While we're still not sure exactly why it's changing so drastically, it just sent out an updated Terms of Service policy to the creators who've built the site detailing exactly what won't be allowed going forward. Comparing the new OnlyFans Acceptable Use Policy to the old one makes the additions clear: Do not upload, post, display, or publish Content on OnlyFans that:

| NASA’s Perseverance to attempt second Mars soil scoop, hoping rocks don’t ‘crumble’ Posted: 20 Aug 2021 02:39 PM PDT  NASA's Mars rover, Perseverance, is getting ready for another attempt, in the coming weeks, to scoop up Martian rocks after its first attempt earlier this month didn't play out as engineers expected. The rover's sample-caching arm worked, engineers say, but the sampling tube turned up empty. Now the rover, a science lab on wheels that landed on Mars in February, will drive to a new location called Citadelle for a second shot at picking up its first rock sample. This time, to make sure a sample is actually collected, engineers will wait for images of the sample tube to come back before it gets processed and stowed inside the rover's belly. "We were just super excited that the hardware worked from... |
| Go read this story on the tiny details that make game development so hard Posted: 20 Aug 2021 02:36 PM PDT  While many video games might feel nearly effortless to play, letting you make impossible jumps, drive cars at breakneck speeds, cast magic out of thin air, and so much more, actually making those games is a superhuman feat of its own. Just one game often requires the efforts of a huge team laboriously crafting every minute detail, and very little of it that comes easy, as detailed by numerous developers who spoke to IGN's Rebekah Valentine in this article that you should read. Valentine's article has a lot of fascinating stories from developers answering this question: "What is a thing in video games that seems simple but is actually extremely hard for game developers to make?" Take elevators, for example, which, in a video game, aren't... |
| GM recalls all Chevy Bolts for fire risk Posted: 20 Aug 2021 02:20 PM PDT  General Motors is expanding its recall of the Chevy Bolt to include all models — including the two new versions released earlier this year — after multiple fires in the electric vehicle's battery packs caused by defects in the LG Chem cells found inside. GM is warning owners not to charge their Bolts in or near their homes overnight, and to park the vehicles outside when not being charged. It's also asking owners not to charge their Bolts above 90 percent, or to deplete the battery to below 70 miles of remaining range. Owners should follow these guidelines until replacement modules — the groups of batteries that make up the pack — are ready. It's not clear when that will be, though. GM says it will "only begin replacing battery modules... |
| Jeff Bezos reportedly used his unlimited wealth to put an ice cream machine in his house Posted: 20 Aug 2021 01:40 PM PDT  We've made suggestions to Jeff Bezos about what he could do with his hundreds of billions of dollars before, and we're certainly not the only ones to do so — but it seems like we've all been thinking small. While the public has been calling on Bezos to end world hunger or buy vaccines for almost two-thirds of the planet's population, Bezos has been able to live out every child's wildest dream by putting a soft-serve ice cream tap in his house, according to ice cream machine maker CVT Soft Serve. The "What The Actual. Fuck? !?" part of CVT's caption seems to express surprise that the billionaire would do this, but I'm honestly... |
| Amazon is using a custom logging device to track the trucks moving its freight Posted: 20 Aug 2021 01:26 PM PDT  Amazon has developed electronic tracking technology for the trucks used by its partners to monitor their movement and hopefully improve driver safety, according to The Information. Electronic logging devices (ELDs) are federally required to prevent fatigue-related accidents on trucks, but now it seems Amazon will offer its partners a custom ELD offering, possibly giving Amazon direct access to a lot more data from a tool it maintains itself. Amazon's Relay ELD — named after the company's Relay platform for booking delivery jobs — works by plugging hardware into the diagnostics port of trucks to directly digest information from the engine, The Information writes. It then communicates that data over Bluetooth to be logged in an... |
