| Tech industry appeals the bad Texas social media law to the Supreme Court Posted: 13 May 2022 06:15 PM PDT  Tech industry trade organizations NetChoice and the Computer Communications Industry Association have appealed directly to the Supreme Court for an emergency stay of the Texas social media law known as HB 20. The law, which creates liability for content moderation decisions that are based on "the viewpoint of the user or another person," could make it impossible to enforce bans on hate speech — or to even moderate platforms at all. HB 20 was successfully blocked in court late last year, and then unblocked by an appeals court on Wednesday without explanation. "Texas HB 20 strips private online businesses of their speech rights, forbids them from making constitutionally protected editorial decisions, and forces them to publish and promote... |
| The best Chromebook deals you can get right now Posted: 13 May 2022 06:05 PM PDT  If you're looking for an affordable laptop alternative, Chromebooks are a great option to consider. Yet there are several kinds on the market these days, and it can be overwhelming to pick the right for you and your needs. Some are better suited for basic work tasks, for example, while some of the higher-end models can even rival some of the best laptops you can buy. Moreover, just because one Chromebook has more features than the other doesn't mean it's the right one for you or the best value for your money. That's why we've curated this comprehensive list of the best Chromebook deals. Each varies in price and comes with its own strengths and weaknesses, but all of them come recommended for one reason or another. And if you'd like to do... |
| Halo Infinite’s next update will bring back the campaign’s secret ultrapowered gun Posted: 13 May 2022 04:52 PM PDT  Halo Infinite's glitched and overpowered "tank gun" will be added back to the game's campaign in a forthcoming update, developer 343 Industries announced Friday. The tank gun is an extremely powerful weapon — essentially a portable version of a Scorpion tank's cannon that has unlimited ammo — and it's been popular with speedrunners and as a way to make the game a lot easier. But even though you need to know exactly where to look to find the gun (which is invisible, by the way), Halo senior community manager John Junyszek said in April that 343 would be removing the "tank gun glitch" alongside the game's second season, which launched May 3rd. That decision wasn't a very popular one with the community, and it seems there's been enough... |
| Phishing attack pop-up targets MetaMask users visiting popular crypto sites Posted: 13 May 2022 03:55 PM PDT  As if this week weren't bad enough for many cryptocurrency owners, with stablecoins crashing and Coinbase suffering an outage at a particularly bad time, now they've reportedly been targeted by a new phishing attack. As reported by CoinDesk and The Block Crypto, sites including Etherscan, CoinGecko, and DexTools all warned users that they were aware of suspicious popups appearing for visitors, and advised them not to confirm any transactions based on popups. Like many recent phishing attacks, this one appeared to promise a link to the Bored Ape Yacht Club project, with an ape skull logo and a (now-disabled) nftapes.win domain. It prompted users to connect their MetaMask wallets (a software cryptocurrency wallet that enables access on... |
| PUBG: Battlegrounds is earning a lot more money after going free-to-play Posted: 13 May 2022 02:21 PM PDT  PUBG: Battlegrounds, the PC and console version of the battle royale shooter series, is making a lot of money following its switch to free-to-play in January, as revealed by developer Krafton's latest earnings report published Friday. According to the report, on PC, sales were up 61 percent year over year to $82.3 million. On console, the sales jump was even bigger, increasing 124 percent from the previous quarter and 274 percent year over year, though Krafton didn't put a dollar figure behind those increases. The game also saw a "nearly tripled" increase in average monthly active users from Q4 2021. PUBG: Battlegrounds was originally a paid title when it launched on Steam in early access in 2017, but the outsized financial success of... |
| SIDS study shows the risks of science hype Posted: 13 May 2022 01:53 PM PDT  Sudden infant death syndrome, or SIDS, is a devastating condition that's still very poorly understood, so when new research comes out, it can feel like a very big deal — especially if that research seems to offer a way to save children's lives. Posts on social media cheered one such new study this week, heralding the research as identifying the reason hundreds of babies die unexpectedly each year. But even though the study points in a promising direction for future research, it isn't a panacea, experts say. "There is nothing definitive about this at all," said Rachel Moon, a researcher studying sudden infant death syndrome at the University of Virginia, in an email to The Verge. The surge in interest around the study is understandable,... |
| The Steam Deck finally has Windows audio drivers Posted: 13 May 2022 01:22 PM PDT  Two and a half months after our Steam Deck review, Valve has finally provided the drivers you'll need for audio if you choose to install Windows on the gaming portable. Before today, you would have had to pair Bluetooth headphones or plug in USB-C earbuds or a dongle to get any kind of audio on Windows at all. Both the speakers and 3.5mm jack did nothing on Windows before today, and it blamed AMD for the delay. But now, this pair of new drivers should enable both of the missing audio features. It took a while for AMD and Valve to bring out the initial set of graphics, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and SD card drivers for Windows, too. Is it time to install Windows on your Deck? Nope, I definitely wouldn't say that. While Valve keeps squashing bugs... |
| Lego’s next batch of official unofficial sets go on sale May 17th, and you’ll want to be quick Posted: 13 May 2022 12:59 PM PDT  If you consider yourself a Lego fan, you're going to want to read this story and visit this website before Tuesday, May 17th, at 10AM PT / 1PM ET. That's because Lego is about to put its third and possibly final batch of officially unofficial sets on sale, and that's the time you can vote with your dollars for the five fan-made creations that will become a reality. These Lego sets were designed by fans, not the Danish brickmaker itself, and Lego originally rejected each and every one. But, now, Lego's Bricklink Designer Program will give a gorgeous 1950s diner, a working waterfall, a huge train station, a steampunk science lab, and more a second chance at official Lego stardom. The sets are pieced together and shipped by Lego itself,... |
| Twitter CEO: ‘We need to be prepared for all scenarios’ Posted: 13 May 2022 12:47 PM PDT  Twitter CEO Parag Agrawal acknowledged the possibility that Elon Musk's deal to purchase the company could fall through in a series of tweets this afternoon that sought to explain why he's shaking up Twitter's leadership. Agrawal said that he's still "accountable for leading and operating" Twitter for the time being and that his recent changes are meant to "build a stronger Twitter" and help manage costs. "While I expect the deal to close, we need to be prepared for all scenarios and always do what's right for Twitter," Agrawal said. His remarks come after Musk tweeted this morning that his $44 billion purchase of Twitter is "temporarily on hold" over concerns about spam and fake accounts. While it is entirely unclear whether Musk can... |
| Anonymous bulletin board app Yik Yak is revealing its users’ exact locations Posted: 13 May 2022 11:22 AM PDT  Yik Yak, an app that acts as a local anonymous message board, makes it possible to find users' precise locations and unique IDs, Motherboard reports. A researcher who analyzed Yik Yak data was able to access precise GPS coordinates of where posts and comments came from, accurate within 10 to 15 feet, and says he brought his findings to the company in April. First launched in 2013, Yik Yak was popular on college campuses, where it was often used to gossip, post updates, and cyberbully other students. After waning relevance and failed attempts at content moderation, the app shut down in 2017, only to rise from the dead last year. In November, the company said it had passed 2 million users. Motherboard spoke with David Teather, a computer... |
