| Ukraine Hit With Cyberattack as Fear of Russian Invasion Looms Large Posted: 14 Jan 2022 01:35 AM PST  Government websites in Ukraine were hit with a cyberattack early Friday, with some domains defaced to tell users their information had been compromised. The attack comes as Russia continues a military build-up along its border with Ukraine and talks between Russian and U.S. leaders over a potential invasion of the… |
| After Log4j, Open-Source Software Is Now a National Security Issue Posted: 13 Jan 2022 06:00 PM PST  For years, developers of free, open-source software have been telling anyone who will listen that their projects needs better financial assistance and more oversight.

| Google Has A Very Apple-like Plan For Google TV Posted: 13 Jan 2022 05:45 PM PST  It's no secret that Google's been vying for a space in your living room for years. Google TV has undergone quite a few branding changes since it first launched in 2010, but it's still managed to become one of the top streaming platforms. And it's not stopping: Google has its sights set beyond just casting your… |
| Lawmakers Come After Companies' Terms of Service With New TLDR Bill Posted: 13 Jan 2022 04:31 PM PST  There's a reason that nobody reads the little terms of service tabs tucked away at the bottom of any website: They're too long, too full of jargon, and too impenetrable for anyone without a law degree to bother trying to understand. |
| Wow, a New Quantum Leap Show Might Actually Happen Posted: 13 Jan 2022 04:00 PM PST  The fate of time-traveling doctor Dr. Sam Beckett may finally be revealed. NBC has ordered a pilot for a new version of Quantum Leap that'll take place 30 years after the original TV show ended. It'll follow a new team who has been put together to bring back the Quantum Leap project and hopefully figure out what… |
| All the New and Returning Sci-Fi and Fantasy Streaming Shows We Can't Wait for in 2022 Posted: 13 Jan 2022 03:00 PM PST  A new year is upon us, and what better way to look ahead than by thinking about all the times we're going to be glued to our desks or sofas watching TV? There's once again so much content coming along the way in 2022 that we're splitting our TV preview into streaming and broadcast lists—here's what's coming to Apple… |
| Virginia Cops Used Fake DNA Docs to Coerce Confessions. Somehow, That’s Legal Posted: 13 Jan 2022 02:45 PM PST  DNA forensics, at their best, are intended to bring an air of scientific confidence to the criminal justice system to hopefully prevent the worst kinds of wrongful convictions. Those good intentions are made meaningless though when bad cops decide to fight dirty. |
| The Energy Department Is Creating a Clean Energy Corps to Fix This Mess Posted: 13 Jan 2022 02:35 PM PST  On Thursday, the Department of Energy announced a newly formed Clean Energy Corps. Rather than being an invading force, the plan is to have a veritable army of experts who can make the zero-carbon future we need a reality. No word yet on what the uniforms might look like, though. |

| Freaky Deep-Sea Anglerfish Casts Light in Two Distinct Ways Posted: 13 Jan 2022 02:19 PM PST  In May 2021, a Pacific footballfish washed ashore at Crystal Cove State Park in Newport Beach, California. Still in good condition, the rarely seen fish featured spikes along its body, sharp teeth, and a bioluminescent lure. But as scientists would go on to discover, it also had biofluorescent tissue, a characteristic… |
| Real Steel, the Hugh Jackman Film About Robot Boxing, May Get a Disney+ Series Posted: 13 Jan 2022 02:15 PM PST  Real Steel is one of the greatest sci-fi sports movies of all time. Granted, the subgenre of sci-fi sports movies is pretty slim—especially ones where the entire movie focuses on that theme—but Real Steel is near the top of the list. And now, after years of the film's fan base clamoring for more, it might actually be… |
| New Bill Could Stop New York Police From Using Keyword Search and Geofencing Warrants Posted: 13 Jan 2022 02:00 PM PST  A proposed law in New York would cut down on law enforcement's ability to use controversial surveillance tactics—including warrants that can clandestinely target you because of your search engine history or nab your location data without you knowing. |
| Peacemaker Is a Fun, Sinister Palette Swap of Guardians of the Galaxy Posted: 13 Jan 2022 01:30 PM PST  It's hard to talk about HBO Max's Peacemaker without bringing up creator James Gunn's previous work. Gunn's Guardians of the Galaxy films helped catapult him into cinematic stardom after creating a solid resume of B-movies, and he was brought into the fold at Warner Bros. to write and direct The Suicide Squad after he… |
| Epstein-Barr Virus Could Be the Leading Cause of Multiple Sclerosis, Large Study Finds Posted: 13 Jan 2022 01:10 PM PST  Scientists say they've found striking evidence that a common infection caused by the Epstein-Barr virus is the leading cause of multiple sclerosis. Their research has found that military personnel who newly tested positive for the virus went on to have a substantially higher risk of later developing multiple sclerosis… |
| Supreme Court Blocks Workplace Vaccine Mandate, Says Covid Not an Occupational Hazard Posted: 13 Jan 2022 01:03 PM PST  The Supreme Court, ruling 6-3 on a predictable partisan axis, has tossed out Joe Biden's federal coronavirus vaccine mandate for large employers. But it will allow the administration's less sweeping vaccine requirements for health care workers at federally funded facilities to move forward. |
| Download Dune and Other Great 2021 Sci-Fi Screenplays for Free Posted: 13 Jan 2022 12:45 PM PST  Watching a movie is one thing. Reading one is something else entirely—which, admittedly, sounds like the most obvious statement ever written: "reading is different from watching." You're welcome for that genius insight. But seriously, when it comes to a movie, the dynamic between the mediums is a bit more complex and… |
| Belle's Mamoru Hosoda Tells Us Why He Keeps Making Stories for the Internet Age Posted: 13 Jan 2022 12:05 PM PST  Mamoru Hosoda has been fascinated with the digital world since his career in animation started. From his directorial debut with the first Digimon Adventure film and its follow up Our War Game!, all the way to his brand new awards season contender Belle, the director has repeatedly returned to the theme of connections… |

| Fortnite Returns to iPhones Thanks to Nvidia’s Gaming Loophole Posted: 13 Jan 2022 11:35 AM PST |
| Biden Orders Military to Fight Omicron Posted: 13 Jan 2022 11:25 AM PST  The U.S. military is joining another forever war against an unconventional enemy force, hiding in the civilian population in a never-ending quagmire—though this time it's the novel coronavirus, so you can let out a deep breath. |
| This Raised by Wolves Season 2 Trailer Is Heavy on Wolves Posted: 13 Jan 2022 11:15 AM PST  Full disclosure: the only two minutes of Ridley Scott's gooey sci-fi HBO Max series Raised by Wolves that I've seen were in the original trailer for season one, which didn't really capture my attention. Now I've seen two more minutes, courtesy of this brand-new season two trailer, you can consider my attention… |
| This Ad-Free Google Search Alternative Is Actually Worth Using Posted: 13 Jan 2022 11:00 AM PST  When a company like Google controls more than 90% of the search engine market, it's always seemed near-impossible for any competitor to woo away the company's users. More recently though, that tide's started to change—Google's constant flubs in protecting users' privacy have left folks looking for alternatives that… |
| Ghostbusters: Afterlife: The Spoiler FAQ Posted: 13 Jan 2022 10:30 AM PST  There's something strange in the neighborhood… and it's the plot of Ghostbusters: Afterlife! In celebration of Ivan and Jason Reitman's critically divisive, audience-adored sequel to the original Ghostbusters movie coming to digital on demand last week, we've decided to give it the (admittedly belated) Spoiler FAQ… |
| No, Smoking Weed Won’t Help You Avoid Covid Posted: 13 Jan 2022 09:55 AM PST  A new study that found compounds in cannabis could stop the coronavirus from infecting cells has understandably captured the internet's attention this week. But while the findings are worth following up on, people shouldn't get too excited yet, as the researchers are very clear that simply smoking or otherwise… |
| Javier Bardem Wants to Ride a Dune Sandworm and He Should Get His Wish Posted: 13 Jan 2022 09:45 AM PST  Filmgoers who hadn't read Frank Herbert's Dune probably found it very curious that two huge stars like Oscar winner Javier Bardem and pop icon Zendaya only appeared in the new movie for a short amount of time. By the time the film ended, however, the reasoning surely became clearer: Bardem and Zendaya play Freman, the… |
