The new MacBook Air might come with a long wait time

Apple is poised to reveal a new MacBook Air at its annual Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) on Monday, but even if it does, you may not be able to immediately buy one. According to a report from Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, COVID-19 shutdowns at the Chinese plants that make MacBooks might mean a limited supply of new devices or a release date that's further off.

China's zero-COVID policy has led to the temporary closure of factories that make Apple products, including Pegatron and Quanta. Although China has begun to relax some of the movement restrictions it initially reinstated in March, some neighborhoods in Shanghai still remain under lockdown.

Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo expects Apple to ship about six to seven million new MacBook...

We’re still waiting for the laptop’s big year

After a long, long month of laptop releases, Computex 2022 is finally over. In some ways, it's the Computex that wasn't.

The early part of this year was an exciting time to be a laptop reporter. Every company and its mother announced that big ideas were on the way. Wacky products abounded, from monitors to phones. LG Display (which supplied the 13.3-inch panel for Lenovo's ThinkPad X1 Fold) showed off a 17-inch foldable OLED screen. We saw RGB, OLEDs, and haptics galore. Chipmakers promised architectural innovations and performance gains. We were told that these were all coming soon.

At the end of May was Computex, the biggest laptop-specific show of the year. (Well, it really was all of May — since many global attendees couldn't get to...

Three Chinese astronauts, or taikonauts, arrived at the Tianhe core module of the unfinished Tiangong space station on Sunday morning, where they'll stay for six months to help finish its construction (via Space.com). The Shenzhou 14 spacecraft took off from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center in the Gobi Desert on Saturday at 10:44PM ET (10:44AM local time) and docked with Tianhe at 5:42AM ET (5:42PM local time).

The three-person crew includes Chen Dong, Cai Xuzhe, and Liu Yang, who originally made history as the first Chinese woman in space during the country's Shenzhou 9 mission in 2012. While they're in orbit, the crew is expected to conduct several spacewalks and prepare the station for the arrival of two additional lab modules,...

Fortnite’s new season has a rollercoaster, Darth Vader, and vibes

Posted: 05 Jun 2022 05:05 AM PDT

Following a few months of gritty warfare — and a live event last night starring a giant mech — the latest season of Fortnite is surprisingly laid-back. In fact, season 3 of the game's third chapter is called, simply, Vibin'. It brings with it some notable changes to the island, including new locations like an amusement park — complete with a rollercoaster — as well as a trippy-looking forest called Reality Falls that features magical saplings players can plant and grow for better loot.

Here's a closer look at how the western edge of Fortnite's island looks now:

Gameplay-wise, the season brings back a fan-favorite vehicle, the Baller (which looks a bit like a giant hamster ball). It has been tweaked slightly, though: it has...

Morbius gets resurrected by memes, flops on first day back in theaters

Morbius is back in theaters — despite no one even asking for it — and its unpopularity is only making itself more obvious. The film made just $85,000 on Friday after making a return to over 1,000 theaters, bringing its domestic cumulative to $73.6 million (via Forbes).

Morbius was originally released on April 1st and wasn't the most well-received. In The Verge's review of the flick, our TV and film reporter, Charles Pulliam-Moore, says Morbius' pacing, plot, and the performance of its lead actors feel "ill-conceived," and "calls into question Sony's grand project of building an entire cinematic universe on Spider-Man's back."

Sony likely re-released...

Fortnite’s latest live event was a giant mech battle

Posted: 04 Jun 2022 01:51 PM PDT

A huge battle took place today in Fortnite's most recent live event — which featured a gigantic mech, as well as some hints for what to expect from the game's next season. If you missed the rollercoaster-like experience, you can check out what went down in the video above.

Before the event kicked off properly, players were transported to what appeared to be a frosted-over space station, where they could kill time by using huge guns to clear away an array of asteroids that circled the station while listening to characters like Agent Jones and The Origin bicker over a loudspeaker. They were then given a mission: stop a powerful weapon that could wipe out all life on the island.

It turns out, that space station actually housed a giant mech...

Apple’s mixed reality headset will reportedly feature content created by Hollywood directors

Apple is reportedly teaming up with Hollywood directors to create video content for its upcoming augmented reality (AR) / virtual reality (VR) headset, according to a report from The New York Times. Sources familiar with the matter told the Times that Jon Favreau is just one of the directors involved — he's reportedly tasked with delivering a mixed reality experience based on Prehistoric Planet, the dinosaur-filled Apple TV Plus series he produced.

Unfortunately, it doesn't look like we'll be able to immerse ourselves in a Jurassic Park-like landscape anytime soon. In line with an earlier report from Bloomberg, the NYT says Apple's headset might not launch until 2023 due to issues with battery life and performance. That said, its...

Someone says they bought a Pixel 7 Pro prototype on Facebook Marketplace

Another alleged Google Pixel 7 prototype has surfaced, this time from a Reddit user who says they bought it on Facebook Marketplace. From appearances, it's a Pixel 7 Pro, which Redditor AMC20_ says was listed as a Pixel 6 Pro without a box. It is not, in fact, a Pixel 6 Pro.

Google's phones have a long history of unusual leaks, but even by Pixel standards, this is a strange one. It's also the second time a prototype Pixel 7 Pro has surfaced in the last week. In case you missed episode one of this saga, someone listed a Pixel 7 prototype on eBay. As Android expert Mishaal Rahman pointed out, the photos seem to have been taken with another prototype unit — a Pixel 7 Pro, which can be seen in the reflection on the phone's glossy back panel....

New York gets closer to cracking down on Amazon’s warehouse production quotas

Posted: 04 Jun 2022 10:38 AM PDT

New York's State Assembly passed the Warehouse Worker Protection Act (WWPA) on Friday, a bill that would require Amazon and other companies to disclose production quotas to workers, as first reported by CNBC. If New York Governor Kathy Hochul (D) signs it into law, it would also prevent employees from having to meet quotas that require them to skip lunch or bathroom breaks.

Just like a similar bill passed in California last September, the WWPA states that employers will need to provide each warehouse worker with "a written description of each quota to which the employee is subject" when they're hired (or within 30 days of the bill becoming law). It also bars employers from punishing workers for failing to meet quotas that weren't...
