Episodes of Joe Rogan’s show are disappearing from Spotify

Around 70 episodes of Joe Rogan's podcast mysteriously disappeared from Spotify on Friday, as spotted by JREMissing.com, a web tool that tracks missing episodes. The show (and Spotify's relationship to it) have faced heavy criticism over the past few weeks, but there's no clear connection between that and the missing episodes, nor is there any immediately apparent link between the episodes that were removed.

For anyone who's taken the sanity-preserving step of muting the phrase "Joe Rogan" on Twitter, here's a brief recap of what's been going on: Spotify, which has been the exclusive home of The Joe Rogan Experience since the streaming giant reportedly paid $100 million for the pleasure in 2020, has taken a lot of heat from people...

Amazon named as possible Peloton buyer in a suspiciously well-timed rumor

Peloton's no-good-very-bad downfall from its pandemic peak — losing over $20 billion in value since November and becoming a dangerous subplot in prime time TV — has attracted speculation that the connected fitness company is a target to be acquired, but by whom? A Friday evening report from the Wall Street Journal tosses out Amazon as one of the "potential suitors" that may be considering a deal — just as markets closed for the weekend and only a few days before Peloton issues its Q2 2022 earnings report on February 8th. Just the suggestion caused a spike in Peloton's stock price, sending it up 20–30 percent in after-hours trading.

Peloton's yo-yoing fortunes over the last two years have been well documented, but combine the...

The cost of ripping and replacing Chinese cellular equipment has ballooned by billions

The estimated cost of replacing Huawei and ZTE equipment in US networks has increased substantially. On Friday, Federal Communications Commission (FCC) chairwoman Jessica Rosenworcel told Congress that providers had applied to be reimbursed $5.6 billion for "ripping and replacing" equipment deemed insecure by the US government (via Light Reading). In September, 2020, the FCC estimated that the effort would cost $1.8 billion, and in December, 2020 Congress earmarked around $1.9 billion for the effort.

But Rosenworcel said Friday in a statement that the FCC had received "over 181 applications from carriers who have developed plans to remove and replace equipment in their networks that pose a national security threat." She went on to say...

The Nintendo Switch was, like most consoles during the pandemic, once in short supply. Thankfully, retailers like Best Buy, Amazon, and Walmart now routinely stock the Nintendo Switch and Switch Lite in multiple color configurations and models, giving those who struck out ample opportunity to purchase Nintendo's versatile console.

We're keeping an eye across the web to find where you can buy a Nintendo Switch, the Nintendo Switch Lite (the portable-only version of the console), and the new Nintendo Switch OLED model, as well as any bundles that seem like good deals.

Where can I buy a Nintendo Switch right now?

Hear me out: browser tabs in music player apps

All right, listen. This is not for those of you with Dewey Decimal mental filing systems or expertly curated music playlists that easily identify the music contained therein. But hear me out: we need music browser tabs in our music player apps.

I can't, unfortunately, take credit for this proposed — and tremendously useful! — addition to our music player interfaces. It was actually The Verge's deputy editor Dan Seifert who first tweeted the idea, which I enthusiastically threw my support behind. We're not the only two nerds who think this would be a handy feature, either. Wearables reviewer Victoria Song chimed in that she, too, would like a tabs-like feature in her music players. (A good and correct opinion.)

Apple reportedly plans to reveal the first iPhone SE with 5G in March

Bloomberg reporter Mark Gurman is typically a reliable source for Apple rumors, so we're listening when he says the company is targeting March 8th for a spring event to show off a new low-cost iPhone SE with 5G, as well as a refreshed iPad Air that adds a new CPU and 5G for cellular-equipped models.

Rumors of an update for the iPhone SE have been around since before the iPhone 13 launched, and now Bloomberg says we should expect to see a faster chip and improved cameras inside a shell that's similar to the existing model that has a 4.7-inch screen. The current iPhone SE was introduced in 2020, and its $399 price is the same now as it was on launch day, so an A15 CPU and 5G could make it a much better value. There's no word on the fate of...

OpenSea launches new contract-clearing system to protect against recent bug

Posted: 04 Feb 2022 12:48 PM PST

On Thursday evening, blockchain platform OpenSea launched a new system that will help users clear out unclaimed sale offers, set to roll out over the next two weeks. In an announcement post, CEO Devin Finzer described the changes as made to "ensure old, inactive listings expire."

The move comes after a bug that allowed attackers to exploit old contracts to buy tokens for hundreds of thousands of dollars below market price. In one particularly attention-getting case in January, a Bored Ape Yacht Club token was purchased for less than $2,000 and resold immediately for over $192,000.

The bug was a result of how OpenSea's platform interacts with the Ethereum blockchain, often saving gas fees by listing offers locally rather than coding them...

Jaguar Land Rover announced a software update this week that offers deep Alexa integration for newer vehicle models (via Bloomberg).

The update is available to over 200,000 Jaguar and Land Rover vehicles outfitted with the company's Pivi Pro 3.0 or later infotainment system via an over-the-air update. This comes after Amazon's efforts early last year to open up some of Alexa's AI to allow car manufacturers to better integrate Alexa into their vehicles.

Alexa in Jaguars and Land Rovers will be usable without the need of a smartphone and will be able to assist drivers hands-free with playing music, navigating to various points of interest, and everything else Alexa is capable...

NASA and SpaceX say lagging parachutes on Dragon capsule are not a problem

NASA and SpaceX say they are looking into a recurring issue with lagging parachutes on SpaceX's Crew Dragon capsule — critical features the spacecraft needs to land when it returns from orbit. However, the two spaceflight partners are downplaying the seriousness of the problem, claiming that the parachutes are still behaving safely despite the behavior.

The parachute issue cropped up during the two most recent landings of SpaceX's Crew Dragon capsule. During each of those descents to Earth, one of the four main parachutes on the spacecraft was slower to fully inflate than the other three. The lagging parachute was clearly visible during a livestream of a November landing, in which the Crew Dragon carried four astronauts home from the...

The House hearing on 5G and planes shows the ride isn’t over yet

On Thursday, after a month of confusion, delays, and canceled flights related to Verizon and AT&T's rollout of 5G C-Band networks, the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure held a hearing to "discuss the impact that deployment of 5G technologies has on the aviation industry."

Anyone tuning in hoping for bombshell revelations would've been disappointed. While some of the testimony was enlightening, giving insight into how certain segments of the industry viewed the events, the main takeaway was that we have a long way to go before C-Band and aviation will be able to co-exist happily.

"The process" that led to this situation, where...
