Update November 22nd, 8:25PM ET: Sony appears to have sold out of PS5 consoles for the day. We'll make sure to let you know when the next opportunity comes up.

If you're still trying to get your hands on a PlayStation 5, lining up at Sony's digital storefront is one of the more reliable ways to snag Sony's next-gen console. Sony has reopened the digital queue on its direct store to place orders for the $500 disc-based PlayStation 5, as well as the $400 PlayStation 5 Digital Edition.

Provided you've already registered and logged into your PlayStation account, you should be able to line up once you've hit the landing page. Once you've entered the queue, you'll be given an ETA of when you'll be able to check out and, once that timer hits...

Roku says it's working to fix issues that users have been reporting following its 10.5 software update. TechCrunch reported the problems earlier on Monday, citing posts on Reddit and Roku forums where users said that apps like HBO Max, ESPN, Disney Plus, and more wouldn't allow them to watch any video content after updating the OS on their smart TVs.

According to Roku, "certain older Roku TV models or older Roku Ultra players" are affected by the problematic update. In a post on its forum, the company instructs users with Roku Ultra models 4660, 4661, 4662, or 4670, and users with a Roku TV model 7XXX to manually check for a software update, and tells owners of other devices to subscribe to the thread for future details.

Food delivery platform DoorDash has agreed to pay $5.3 million to the city of San Francisco to settle allegations it failed to provide healthcare and paid sick leave to some 4,500 delivery drivers, as the city requires. The company did not admit wrongdoing as part of the settlement, most of which will be used to reimburse drivers who made deliveries in the city between 2016 and 2020, before a new state law covering gig workers took effect.

California's gig workers law, which voters approved in November 2020 as ballot measure Proposition 22, allows companies like Uber, Lyft, and DoorDash to treat workers as independent contractors, not employees. A judge ruled in August that the law was unconstitutional, but it remains in effect pending...

FCC approves $6 billion Verizon-Tracfone acquisition

On Monday, the Federal Communications Commission voted to approve Verizon Wireless' purchase of Tracfone in a deal worth more than $6 billion, positioning Verizon to become one of the largest prepaid service providers in the US.

Tracfone is the largest reseller of wireless devices in the US and maintains over 20 million subscribers with more than 90,000 retail locations. Verizon's Tracfone acquisition combines the largest mobile virtual network operator (MVNO) with the largest wireless provider in the country. When Verizon first proposed the deal last September, the company said that the acquisition would bolster Tracfone's networks while making low-income wireless services more competitive.

"After rigorous review, the Commission found...

Black Friday officially starts on November 26th, however, we're already starting to see significant discounts on some of this year's most popular pieces of tech.

Prime Gaming is giving away EA games over the next few months

Amazon and EA will be giving away free PC games and content through Amazon's Prime Gaming program for the next few months, so it may be time to check in on the gaming service if you've forgotten that it comes included with Prime. This month, Prime subscribers will be able to get a free Origin code for the surprisingly decent remaster of 2010's Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit, and Amazon says that four more of EA's "most popular titles" will be coming in 2022 (though given the starting game, it may be worth keeping your expectations in check).

If it's still November when you're reading this, you can also snag EA's Dragon Age Inquisition for free from Prime Gaming. Amazon's partnership with EA also includes skins for games like Apex Legends...

Walmart is now delivering diapers and food by drone (if you live close to this Arkansas store)

Posted: 22 Nov 2021 01:26 PM PST

Just last week, Walmart made headlines by launching its first commercial US drone delivery service within a 50-mile radius of Pea Ridge, Arkansas — dropping parachute-laden packages from an autonomous Zipline plane to a "hand-selected group of recipients." Now, it's already expanding those drone deliveries in another, small way: customers who live in Farmington, Arkansas, can now order small items like cans of tuna, baby supplies, and paper plates starting today. That's thanks to a partnership with DroneUp, which will also provide drone delivery stations in Rogers, AR and Bentonville, AR "in the coming months."

While it's kind of exciting for drone delivery watchers, you should know that it's also very much baby steps. DroneUp's...
