| The King’s Man Does a Roll Call of Some Men and a Woman Posted: 22 Oct 2021 05:30 PM PDT  Have you forgotten who stars in the Kingsmen prequel The King's Man? I wouldn't blame you if you had, honestly. The film was originally meant to premiere in the distant prehistory of November 2019—yeah, nearly full two years ago—before getting pushed back to March of 2020, when recorded history began. The ancient… |
| Undocumented Workers Need Climate Protections, Too Posted: 22 Oct 2021 04:49 PM PDT  Ana Martínez has worked on a farm in Florida for nearly two decades.

| The Coolest Star Wars, Power Rangers, and Transformers Toys Revealed at Hasbro Pulsecon Posted: 22 Oct 2021 04:30 PM PDT  The first day of reveals for Hasbro's Pulsecon fan event is over, and there's lots (and lots) of goodies from the worlds of Power Rangers, Transformers, and Star Wars on the way to rob you blind and leave you with nothing but piles and piles of action figures. Here's all the major reveals from the event so far. |
| Hayden Christensen Will Reprise His Anakin Skywalker Role for Ahsoka Posted: 22 Oct 2021 03:50 PM PDT  Star Wars' Ahsoka Tano is one of the best examples of how much richness there is to be found in the franchise when it manages to veer slightly away from focusing solely on the Skywalker family and its personal significance in the Force. Though Anakin Skywalker was a fixture in The Clone Wars, the series also gave… |
| Dune's Josh Brolin Reflects on His Experience for This Extravagant New Art Book Posted: 22 Oct 2021 02:50 PM PDT  Most movie art books merely collect concept art, behind-the-scenes photos, and maybe a few of the film's best stills. Not Dune, part of Insight's The Art and Soul of Dune Limited Edition. Instead, it's a book pairing the art photography of Dune cinematographer Greig Fraser with writing by Josh Brolin, who plays House… |
| T-Mobile Says It’ll Pay Off Your Phone If You Switch Posted: 22 Oct 2021 02:41 PM PDT  Carriers will stop at nothing to entice you away from your current plan.

| It Sure Looks Like Donald Trump Is Trying to Trademark 'Truthing' Posted: 22 Oct 2021 02:40 PM PDT  On Wednesday, ex-president and current loser Donald Trump announced he is launching the Trump Media & Technology Group (TMTG), a venture supposedly valued at $1.7 billion that will encompass everything from a hellhole social network called Truth Social to "non-woke" entertainment. Par for his track record, it looks… |
| Big Oil’s Climate Plans Are Worthless, According to Science Posted: 22 Oct 2021 02:30 PM PDT  Oil and gas companies keep saying they're committed to the goals of the Paris Agreement. They keep making net zero promises. They touting high-tech solutions they're working on. It may feel like most of it is bullshit, but now we have the science to prove it. |
| China’s Version of TikTok Now Features 'Put Down Your Phone' PSAs Following Government Scrutiny Posted: 22 Oct 2021 02:20 PM PDT  Seeking to make an app that was designed to be a fun distraction less fun and less distracting, the powers that be over at Douyin—the Chinese version of TikTok that's pretty much the same the U.S. version, but with boosted ecommerce capabilities—are launching new features aimed at curbing the binge-watching behaviors… |
| Ryan Gosling Is the Ken to Margot Robbie's Barbie Posted: 22 Oct 2021 02:10 PM PDT  What a weird, weird race to the bottom of the branded-IP media universe barrel we find ourselves in. |
| Hackers Have Been Using a Rootkit That Somehow Got Microsoft's Digital Seal of Approval Posted: 22 Oct 2021 01:35 PM PDT  A recent report by cybersecurity firm Bitdefender shows that e-criminals have been using a particular rootkit, dubbed "FiveSys," that bafflingly received a digital signature from Microsoft. |

Though the… |
| Foundation Just Became Star Wars, and It Sucks Posted: 22 Oct 2021 12:20 PM PDT  Isaac Asimov's Foundation books aren't Star Wars, or at least they're not supposed to be. They're not filled with burgeoning heroes, foreboding villains, laser swords, funky aliens, or even much action and adventure, really. They're about math and science and a 1,000-year attempt to save and rebuild civilization after… |
| You Call This a Safety Report, Lyft? Posted: 22 Oct 2021 12:10 PM PDT  Lyft has finally released its safety report, three and a half years late, ringing in at a whopping 16 pages (two filler). It's dated and incomplete, and next to Uber's 84-page 2019 audit, it looks like an index card. Three years? Really? |
| A GPS-Based Bug Could Roll Back Your Devices to 2002 Posted: 22 Oct 2021 11:50 AM PDT  No one needs low-rise jeans to come back. Or capri trousers. And though they were supremely comfortable for their time, the Juicy Couture tracksuit can stay in the vault we put it in. Time has to stay synced precisely to the second, to prevent there from making a comeback. But a bug in the time rollback checking code… |
| Heat and Dehydration Likely Cause of Mysterious Hiking Deaths in California This Summer Posted: 22 Oct 2021 11:40 AM PDT  Mariposa County Sheriff's officials believe they now know what likely led to the mysterious deaths of a California family of three and their dog while hiking earlier this summer: heat and dehydration. The determination came after months of concern that other possible causes, including toxic algae, may have posed a… |
| Netflix's Cowboy Bebop Just Can't Move on From "Tank" Posted: 22 Oct 2021 11:20 AM PDT  Netflix has much more serious problems to deal with right now than overusing a really good anime opening. But if you do want to find something to complain about that isn't, say, the streamer's ongoing and terrible reactions to workers protesting its treatment of and response to trans employees in the wake of Dave… |
| The GOP’s Most Dangerous Climate Advocate Is Going to the United Nations Talks in Glasgow Posted: 22 Oct 2021 10:30 AM PDT  On Friday, the Washington Post reported a list of Republicans in Congress who will be attending United Nations climate talks in Glasgow later this month.

| Pathfinder RPG Maker Paizo Will Voluntarily Recognize Workers' Union Posted: 22 Oct 2021 10:20 AM PDT  It's not often that any company recognizes a new union without being compelled to, generally because they'd prefer their workers to have as few rights and as little pay as they can get away with. So kudos to Paizo Publishing for doing the right thing by recognizing the company's newly formed workers' union of its own… |
| Observations of Exploding Star in ‘Real Time’ Deemed a Major Step Towards Predicting Supernovas Posted: 22 Oct 2021 09:40 AM PDT  A star located 60 million light years away went supernova last year, and astronomers managed to capture all stages of the stellar explosion using telescopes both on the ground and in space. |
| MCU's Ghost Rider Would Have Had Big Team-Ups... If They Kept Him Around Posted: 22 Oct 2021 09:30 AM PDT  In the short amount of time that Gabriel Luna spent appearing on Agents of SHIELD as Robbie Reyes, the Marvel Cinematic Universe's first live-action Ghost Rider, he quickly became one of the series' most fascinating characters for multiple reasons. In addition to stepping into the story as a formidable counterbalance… |
| The Genetics Behind Bees' Black and Yellow Butts Posted: 22 Oct 2021 09:20 AM PDT  If you're close enough to a bumblebee to see the order of its stripes, you're probably too close to it. But lucky for you, a team of geneticists recently did a more highfalutin version of that task, analyzing several species of bee to suss out what causes different species of the insect to get different patterns on… |
| A New Plastics Complex Would 'Desecrate' Cancer Alley Posted: 22 Oct 2021 09:10 AM PDT  Sharon Lavigne won the 2021 Goldman Prize for environmental defenders this year. She never meant to become an activist, let alone the face of a key environmental justice fight in the U.S. But in 2018, when Louisiana Gov. John Bel Edwards announced that a company called Wanhua was set to build a new plastics plant in… |
