It’s ChromeOS now, not Chrome OS

Chrome OS, Google's Linux-based operating system for its Chromebook devices, has been around for more than a decade, but the company has made a small but notable branding change: it's now called ChromeOS, with no space in between. James Croom, Google's senior director of marketing for ChromeOS, confirmed the change to The Verge.

You can see the change for yourself all over Google's ChromeOS dev page (though the official logo at the top appears to have a lowercase c.)

That's three entire spaces saved just in this screenshot. (And four if you count the logo.)

The change hasn't rolled out everywhere just yet. On this ChromeOS page on Google's Chromebook site, for example,...

Hyundai imagines a grim future where metaverse ‘artists’ live in their cars

New car events are usually pretty cringe, full of pointless pyrotechnics, emotionless futurescapes, shameless pandering to "the youth," or hapless CEO antics. (Remember Elon Musk's Cybertruck window smash fail? Simpler times.) So it is with some degree of hesitation that I must point you to this video from Hyundai as the latest exhibit in this ongoing series of "car companies present depressing visions of the future."

The video, which was released yesterday, was intended to reveal the sleek-looking Ioniq 6, Hyundai's latest electric vehicle with a 77.4kWh battery and 379 miles of range. Instead we got a smorgasbord of buzzwords — "trashion," metaverse, NFTs — ideally aimed at appealing to a youthful demographic, but going about it in the...

Prime Day may be done and dusted, but there are still plenty of awesome deals to be found at Amazon and other retailers. Right now, for instance, are still plenty of discounts to be found on true wireless earbuds, laptops, TVs, video games, and a host of other tech. A few of the highlights still available include the Beats Fit Pro — which are still discounted to $159.95 (normally $200) — as well as the Apple Watch SE, which currently starts at $219 ($60 off).

We'll continue to update this page by adding any products that we might have missed and removing anything that's no longer available, so make sure to check back regularly.

Wordle is being turned into a multiplayer board game

The hit online puzzle Wordle is being turned into a multiplayer board game. The New York Times, which purchased Wordle earlier this year, is partnering with Hasbro to bring Wordle from the digital world to the physical one as Wordle: The Party Game later this year.

Wordle rose to prominence in large part because, at least for a little while, it seemed like literally everyone was sharing their results on Twitter. But actually solving a Wordle puzzle is generally a solitary endeavor. In Wordle: The Party Game, though, Wordle becomes a group activity.

One player thinks of a five-letter word that other players have to try and guess first. Once people have made their guesses, the word-thinker will slide translucent yellow and green tiles over...

Giant NFT marketplace OpenSea lays off about 20 percent of its staff

OpenSea co-founder and CEO Devin Finzer revealed this afternoon that the NFT marketplace is laying off about 20 percent of its employees. Finzer did not indicate how many people that represented. A Forbes article in January celebrating Finzer and his co-founder Alex Atallah's $2.2 billion net worth (each) said the company employed more than 70 people, but an OpenSea spokesperson tells The Verge that 230 people will remain with the company.

When we profiled OpenSea in February, the company had just received an additional $300 million in funding with a valuation of $13.3 billion and was the dominant player in selling the tokens, earning a 2.5 percent commission on trades.

Still, a sustained drop in activity and prices has led to headlines...

This is an unlisted tweet

Twitter's experiment in letting two people tweet together has a weird loophole. It's now possible to accidentally make an unlisted tweet. It's not private, but you can only see it if someone sends you a link. Or embeds it in a website.

Here is my unlisted tweet:

These tweets do not appear in your timeline, and they do not appear if you search for them — and yet, they exist. People can even reply to them. And, if they do, those replies will appear in a Twitter search, and people can find the original tweet in a roundabout way.

Here's the trick, assuming you have access to...

Facebook’s new test allows people to have up to five profiles

Facebook will allow some users to have multiple profiles as part of a test, the company announced today, signaling a major shift as Meta looks for new ways to encourage users to stay on the platform amid increased competition from rivals.

As part of the test, some Facebook users will have the ability to create up to four additional profiles tied to their original account. The idea is that additional profiles can be used for different purposes, like one for friends, one for co-workers, and others for interacting with interest groups and influencers. Users will still have one account but be able to switch between profiles with a few clicks.

Nissan Leaf, EV pioneer and sales dud, is reportedly on the chopping block

The Nissan Leaf, a pioneer electric vehicle and one of the cheapest EVs currently on the market, is nearing the end of its life span. According to a report in Automotive News, Nissan does not plan on introducing a next-generation version of the Leaf and may even discontinue the nameplate altogether.

Production of the current version of the Leaf is set to wind down by mid-decade, the outlet reports, citing three anonymous sources. A spokesperson for Nissan declined to speculate on the Leaf's future but did say that the company has noted a "renewed" interest in the Leaf amid high demand for EVs.

"We are seeing renewed interest in LEAF with the increased demand for EVs and its overall value proposition," Nissan spokesperson Stephen Oldham...

Escape Academy is the escape room game you never wanna leave

I've been in the mood for a good puzzle game. No, that's not accurate enough. If a good puzzle game came to my door and proposed marriage, I would blow up my life and career for it the same way that journalist did for that pharma bro. (But I'd at least have the good sense to take the inevitable L privately.)

I wanted Escape Academy to ruin my life like that, the same way Inscryption did.

And while the escape room puzzle game / visual novel isn't the equivalent of Tessa Thompson or Tom Hiddleston — or Tessa Thompson and Tom Hiddleston — showing up at my door on bended knee; I can say it's more like that greasy guy from The Bear cooking an intimate dinner for two in his furniture-less apartment — absolutely incredible but sparse and far...

Netflix is partnering with Microsoft for its new ad-supported tier

Posted: 14 Jul 2022 11:24 AM PDT

Netflix is partnering with Microsoft for its upcoming ad-supported streaming tier, the company announced Wednesday. The streaming service says Microsoft will become its "global advertising technology and sales partner" upon rolling out the cheaper option.

"It's very early days and we have much to work through," Netflix COO Greg Peters writes in the post. "But our long term goal is clear. More choice for consumers and a premium, better-than-linear TV brand experience for advertisers. We're excited to work with Microsoft as we bring this new service to life."
