Anker’s first 3D printer might be the one you’ve been waiting for

Posted: 06 Apr 2022 12:00 AM PDT

3D printing can be a time-consuming and expensive hobby — even if you try to do it on the cheap. It feels like I've adjusted, replaced, or upgraded half the parts on my Ender 3 Pro. It's been fun, but never easy.

But what if a truly consumer-ready 3D printer changed that? We may be about to find out. Trusted phone charger company Anker is officially expanding beyond its Eufy smart home devices, Soundcore audio, Nebula projectors and Roav car accessories into 3D printing this year — and not in a small way. The just-revealed AnkerMake M5 looks like it could give leading brands a serious run for their money.

Vases are a relatively fast thing to print on any FDM printer, but the M5 could make them even...

On Tuesday morning, YouTube channels for some of the world's biggest stars showered fans with strange music videos. Vevo channels for artists like Lil Nas X, Eminem, Drake, Taylor Swift, Ariana Grande, Harry Styles, The Weeknd, Michael Jackson, Kanye West, and many others were affected. The channels in question have subscriber counts that add up to hundreds of millions. Before the videos disappeared, viewers saw bizarre clips of Paco Sanz, a Spanish conman sentenced to two years in jail after being convicted of fraud for lying about having terminal cancer, and rapper Lil Tjay.

YouTube did not respond to requests for comment from The Verge; however, Vevo — which bills itself as "the world's leading music video network" — did acknowledge...

Plex's latest beta features are a modern solution to a modern problem — having to search through HBO Max, Netflix, Disney Plus, and like, three other services to find something to watch. The company announced a new "Discover" feature, which aggregates and recommends content from various streaming services and a universal watchlist that gathers everything you want to watch all in one place.

The Discover screen acts like most streaming services' homepages, giving you recommendations on what to watch next, but with the ability to show content from many different catalogs. It shouldn't overwhelm you with selections you don't have access to, though. There's a setting that lets you choose only the services you have. Plex has been working for...

Block, the parent company of products like Cash App and Tidal, said in an SEC filing that a former employee downloaded "certain reports" that "contained some US customer information" without permission from Cash App Investing (via Protocol).

Data in the reports, which Block said were downloaded on December 10th, included "full name and brokerage account number" and for "some customers" included "brokerage portfolio value, brokerage portfolio holdings and/or stock trading activity for one trading day." The employee, who downloaded the data after they left the company, had access to the reports "as part of their past job responsibilities," according to Block.

"The reports did not include usernames or passwords, Social Security numbers,...

Within the news of Elon Musk taking a significant ownership stake in Twitter — and the revelation that it really is working on an edit button for tweets — many people noticed a wrinkle that seemed small at first but could cause problems later.

On Monday, Musk filed beneficial ownership report paperwork with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to note his ownership of 73,486,938 shares of Twitter (about 9.2 percent of its outstanding common stock and enough to make him the company's largest individual shareholder), and the box checked on the form (pdf) indicated it was a Schedule 13G, which allows for a simple disclosure for investors who intend to remain "passive" in the company's affairs.

A former employee at DeepMind, the Google-owned AI research lab, accuses the company's human resources department of intentionally delaying its response to her complaints about sexual misconduct in the workplace, as first reported by the Financial Times.

In an open letter posted to Medium, the former employee (who goes by Julia to protect her identity) says she was sexually harassed by a senior researcher for months while working at the London-based company. During this time, she was allegedly subject to numerous sexual propositions and inappropriate messages, including some that described past sexual violence against women and threats of self-harm.

Julia got in contact with the...

Microsoft’s pen-first notetaking app Journal graduates from a Garage project into a fully supported app

Microsoft has elevated its Garage project Journal, a notetaking app designed for styluses and pens, into a full-fledged product now called Microsoft Journal, the company announced Tuesday.

The app offers "a delightful freeform personal notetaking experience that lets you take notes and reason through ink," Microsoft's Renee Malone said in a blog post. The app lets you write and draw like many other notetaking apps, but it also supports gestures like scratching out words to erase them and circling words or phrases to select them. You can use the app to mark up PDFs, which is a popular thing to do, according to Malone; a pie chart in her post says that 59 percent of all page types in Journal were PDFs.

Netflix actually added a short-ass movie category

Yes, Netflix actually added a "short-ass" movie category in response to Pete Davidson's Saturday Night Live ode to movies shorter than an hour and 30 minutes. Netflix quote-tweeted the SNL rap on Twitter, casually saying "good idea" and linking to the new short-ass movie category on Netflix.

On the page, you'll find a list of movies — organized by genre — that won't have you stuck on the couch for hours, like Zoolander, Death at a Funeral, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Midnight in Paris, and a whole lot more. It, disappointingly, lacks some of the titles mentioned in the SNL skit, like Driving Miss Daisy and The Lion King...

Germany shuts down servers for Russian darknet marketplace Hydra

Posted: 05 Apr 2022 03:25 PM PDT

German authorities shut down the server infrastructure for the Russian darknet marketplace Hydra, seizing €23 million (~$25.2 million USD) worth of Bitcoin in the process, Germany's Federal Crime Police Office (BKA) announced on Tuesday (via Bleeping Computer).

Hydra is a large marketplace on the dark web that serves as a hub for drugs, stolen credit card information, counterfeit bills, fake documents, and other illegal goods or services. The market primarily caters to criminals in Russia and surrounding nations. "Treasuremen," or dealers connected with the site, push drugs throughout the region by hiding them in geo-tagged pickup locations.

Twitter announced on Tuesday that it will "require the removal of Tweets posted by government or state-affiliated media accounts" if they contain images or videos that show prisoners of war from the Russian invasion of Ukraine. The company also said it would "drastically" reduce the chances of people seeing posts from Russian government accounts.

In its most recent updates to a post detailing how the company is responding to the conflict, Twitter says this decision is meant to ensure its platform isn't used to spread content that violates the Geneva Conventions, one of which requires prisoners of war be protected from "acts of violence or intimidation and against insults and public curiosity." This comes after the government of Ukraine h...
