Watch Joseph Gordon-Levitt as former Uber CEO Travis Kalanick in new TV show teaser

Posted: 23 Dec 2021 04:46 AM PST

Joseph Gordon-Levitt is pumped. In fact, he's super pumped, taking on the role of former Uber CEO Travis Kalanick in a limited series from Showtime that debuts February 27th, 2022 and will chart the chaotic rise of the transportation startup.

The show is titled Super Pumped after the best-selling non-fiction book of the same name from New York Times journalist Mike Isaac. It's been developed by Brian Koppelman and David Levien, co-creators of Billions, a series which revels in the pugnacious behavior of the super-rich. There'll be lots of familiar material for Koppelman and Levien in Kalanick's story, then, with the former CEO described aptly in the trailer as "the notorious bad boy of tech" (those words spoken by Uma Thurman, who's...

If you regularly use an Alexa device, you've probably been upsold by Amazon's assistant at some point. Ask Alexa to carry out some basic task like setting a timer, and it will finish its response with a cheery "By the way, did you know I could [insert feature you've never heard of here]." As highlighted in a recent report from Bloomberg, this is because Amazon knows that users aren't really getting stuck into the full range of Alexa's capabilities.

Bloomberg's report is based on internal Amazon docs, and features some interesting statistics about Alexa usage. Here are the ones we found most eye-catching:

  • In 2020, Amazon determined that 25 percent of US households have at least one Alexa device, with this rising to 27 percent for...

Huawei’s foldable P50 Pocket has a circular external screen that’s perfect for notifications

Posted: 23 Dec 2021 02:34 AM PST

Huawei has officially announced the P50 Pocket, a clamshell-style folding smartphone that has a circular, 1-inch external display for quick access to notifications and widgets. The device launches in China today, though US sanctions (which mean Huawei can't use key tech like Google's Android OS) mean the P50 Pocket won't make any impact in the West.

Huawei teased the handset earlier this month with a photoshoot focused on the P50 Pocket Premium Edition that appeared in Harper's Bazaar China. This version of the device was created with Dutch designer Iris van Herpen. It has a gold or silver finish, and a 3D pattern on the exterior surface that's typical of van Herpen's work, resembling feathers or leaves.

The P50 Pocket...

Samsung and Adata are both teasing PCIe 5.0 SSDs ahead of January's big CES event. With read/write speeds up to 14/12 GBps, this new generation of solid state storage is essentially twice as fast as the fastest PCIe 4.0 drives.

Adata teased two prototypes of its first PCIe 5.0 NVMe M.2 SSDs with capacities up to 8TB. The so-called Project Nighthawk SSD is designed using a Silicon Motion SM2508 controller capable of sequential read/write speeds up to 14/12GBps, while the Project Blackbird SSD features an InnoGrit IG5666 controller for 14/10GBps read/write speeds. Adata will hopefully provide more details at CES which begins January 5th, unless COVID derails it again.
