| My big fat Italian vampire-slaying family Posted: 05 Mar 2022 09:00 AM PST  I was floored as soon as I got to the main menu of Vampire Survivors. I knew this hot indie darling sounded up my alley when I heard it described as a reverse-bullet hell blended with a roguelike, but I was not prepared for it to hit so close to home. While the main menu looks low-rent and the Castlevania-inspired aesthetics seems at first like a poor imitation, what stopped me in my tracks was the starting character. Antonio Belpaese: the first in a lineup of four Belpaese family members and a menagerie of other characters with incredibly Italian-sounding names. Even before playing a minute of the game, I was enthralled by my namesake taking the lead. As I struggled through the first few runs and slowly unlocked more characters, I felt... |
| PayPal pauses service in Russia, citing ‘violent military aggression’ Posted: 05 Mar 2022 07:31 AM PST  PayPal is suspending its services in Russia in response to the country's "violent military aggression in Ukraine," according to a report from Reuters. Ukraine's vice prime minister Mykhailo Fedorov tweeted out a letter from PayPal CEO Dan Schulman, confirming the company's decision to shut down its operations in Russia.
"Under the current circumstances, we are suspending PayPayl services in Russia," Shulman says in the letter. "We are... |
| Fully’s stellar Jarvis standing desks are still 15 percent off Posted: 05 Mar 2022 06:00 AM PST  The days are starting to get longer as we creep ever closer to springtime in the US. And coincidentally, the deals are getting better. Is there a correlation? Let's go with yes and not think about it too much. The Verge Deals team has been playing the hits this week, with deals so good that they bear repeating for the weekend crowd. Check out some of the best deals below. And if you're looking slightly toward the future, stay tuned from whatever comes from next Tuesday's Apple event. We expect the company to announce a new iPhone SE, among other exciting products. If you're ready to upgrade your phone, there will probably be some good carrier deals and trade-in promos in store. Fully Jarvis standing desks are 15 percent off through March... |
| Paramount Plus is still figuring out Paramount Plus Posted: 05 Mar 2022 06:00 AM PST  Paramount Plus celebrated its first birthday yesterday. During its first year, the service debuted a SpongeBob movie, added original shows like 1883, and occasionally surprised us with exclusives like the second season of Evil, which was originally a CBS exclusive show. Plus, Paramount Plus managed to swipe the highly anticipated live-action Halo series — set to debut this month — from sister service Showtime. But a year after its launch, Paramount Plus is still suffering an identity crisis: the streaming service has yet to prove why we should care about Paramount Plus beyond its big Star Trek catalog and obsession with Yellowstone. So far, it's seemed as though Paramount has struggled to find the sweet spot between propping up its... |
| Snapchat turns off public ‘heatmap’ for Ukraine Posted: 04 Mar 2022 05:29 PM PST  Snap has announced that it's temporarily turning off Snapchat's "heatmap" feature for Ukraine, making it so the app no longer shows how many snaps are being taken in particular locations. The company says that the move is "a safety precaution" and that there will still be a curated public feed of snaps submitted by Ukrainians. Normally, the Snap Map displays a color code to show how many people are posting public images in an area. In practice, that means you can get a good idea of where Snapchat users are concentrated. While this publicly available data isn't usually meaningful (it's not a surprise that more people are posting from downtown Seattle than the nearby national forest), in a wartime scenario where Russia may want to track... |
| Posted: 04 Mar 2022 05:26 PM PST  With CES 2022 having wrapped not too long ago, the future looks bright if you're looking to nab a great TV deal. Many manufacturers — including LG and Samsung — announced new versions of some of their most popular models during the event, ranging from The Frame to LG's new C2 lineup. That means we're probably going to start seeing prices fall on last-gen models as newer models become available throughout the rest of the year. For those looking to pick up a solid deal before the new models arrive, however, fret not, as there are still some great discounts available. There are currently a number of discounted 4K TVs to choose from, spanning a wide variety of prices, size configurations, and feature sets. Whether you want a secondary TV for... |
| Facebook won’t let Russian advertisers create or make run ads ‘anywhere in the world’ Posted: 04 Mar 2022 05:10 PM PST  Facebook is cutting off ads in Russia. It's pausing ads that target people in the country and is no longer letting advertisers in Russia "create or run ads anywhere in the world, including within Russia," the company announced on Friday. The moves mark a big escalation of its actions against the country and could help prevent Russian misinformation tied to its invasion of Ukraine from appearing in Facebook ads. Russia earlier on Friday began blocking Meta-owned Facebook entirely in the country, preventing many Russians from posting to social media amid the crisis. "As a result of the Russian government's decision to block access to Facebook in the Russian Federation, soon millions of ordinary Russians will find themselves cut off from... |
| Elon Musk, head of world’s largest EV company, now says we need more oil and gas Posted: 04 Mar 2022 05:07 PM PST  Elon Musk — the man whose Tesla and Tesla Solar have basically devoted their existence to competing with gas-guzzling cars, oil, and coal, and which briefly reached a market cap of $1 trillion and delivered nearly 1 million EVs last year — is now publicly in favor of increasing oil and gas production.
"Obviously, this would negatively affect Tesla, but sustainable energy solutions simply cannot... |
| TikTok plans to add labels to ‘some’ state-controlled media Posted: 04 Mar 2022 04:43 PM PST  TikTok has announced that it'll start putting labels on videos from "some" state-controlled media outlets as it starts rolling out its new state media policy. According to a news post from the company, it is "expediting" its plans for piloting the policy due to the Russian invasion of Ukraine. The company says it started working on the policy last year. Users can expect the labels to start appearing within the next few days, according to the post. A TikTok spokesperson told The Verge via email that the labels would be applied to at least some Russian state media accounts but didn't specify which ones or how many. The Verge confirmed that at least one Russian state-controlled outlet, RT, has a verified account on TikTok. The spokesperson... |
| Samsung has stopped shipping products to Russia Posted: 04 Mar 2022 04:00 PM PST  Samsung is suspending shipments of all of its products to Russia, the company announced Friday. "Due to the current geopolitical developments, shipments to Russia have been suspended," reads a statement from an unnamed Samsung representative, via Samsung's generic PR email address. "We continue to actively monitor this complex situation to determine our next steps." It's not just smartphones — Samsung's suspension includes products ranging from "chips to smartphones and consumer electronics," a source informed Bloomberg — meaning the move cuts off Russia from a huge range of products from one of the largest electronics vendors in the world. Samsung is also making donations to... |
