Twitter Blue has finally started letting subscribers on Android customize the app's navigation bar. The feature, which was previously available only on iOS, lets you get rid of the Spaces icon that's smack-dab in the middle of your navigation bar (and of course, remove some of the other tabs if you want, too).

With custom navigation, you can reduce the number of displayed tabs to as few as two, or keep all five that appear by default — handy if you're tired of stretching your finger over the Spaces tab just to get to your DMs and notifications. Twitter first started testing the Spaces tab on iOS last year and rolled out the tab on Android in May, which seemed to only give more inconvenienced users a reason to sign up for the $2.99 /...

British Army’s YouTube and Twitter accounts were hacked to promote crypto scams

Posted: 03 Jul 2022 01:40 PM PDT

Hackers altered the British Army's Twitter page to make it seem like it was associated with The Possessed NFT project.

Both the British Army's Facebook and Twitter accounts were hacked and used to promote cryptocurrency scams, the UK Ministry of Defence confirmed on Sunday. It's unclear when exactly hackers took over the two accounts, but they both appear to be back to normal now.

"We are aware of a breach of the Army's Twitter and YouTube accounts and an investigation is underway," the Ministry of Defence Press Office said on Twitter. "The Army takes information security extremely seriously and is resolving the issue."

Hackers hijacked the British Army's Twitter page, swapping out the organization's profile picture, bio, and cover photo to make it seem like it was associated with The Possessed NFT collection. The account sent out various retweets for...

An update broke my favorite game on Xbox, but there is a way to fix Apex Legends input lag

Apex Legends: Awakening Collection Event

Update July 3rd, 4:38PM ET: While EA, Respawn and Microsoft have not provided any comment or further updates on the issue, I have found a fix that addresses the problem, at least for Xbox players who use the Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2 with the instructions from this Reddit post, and detailed below.

Last week, EA's battle royale shooter Apex Legends launched a "collection event," which is shorthand for a limited-time setup that is mostly about players buying a bunch of cosmetic items from the in-game store. The only problem is that this time, the massive update has made the game nearly unplayable for many people on consoles.

Without warning, the battle royale shooter's usually tight and responsive controls — a known quantity...

Tesla is facing yet another racial discrimination lawsuit

15 former or current Black Tesla employees are suing the company for allegedly failing to prevent racial discrimination at its Fremont, California factory (via Bloomberg). The lawsuit, which was filed in a California court last week, details workers' claims that they were subject to racial slurs, derogatory comments, and racially-motivated harassment in the workplace.

As outlined in the filing, workers allege that their colleagues frequently used the N-word and other racist or discriminatory terms like "slavery" or "plantation" to describe the factory's work culture. In addition, Tesla allegedly left racist graffiti on bathroom walls, benches, lockers, and workstations that contained "KKK," the N-word, and drawings of swastikas.

Apple Watch Series 8 will reportedly be able to detect if you have a fever

The upcoming Apple Watch Series 8 will reportedly come with a body temperature sensor that can tell whether you're running a fever, according to a report from Bloomberg's Mark Gurman. Instead of giving you an exact reading, Gurman believes the watch should be able to detect a spike in body temperature, and then encourage you to talk to a doctor or use a thermometer.

Gurman says the body temperature sensor still has to pass internal testing, and if it does, Apple's expected to incorporate the feature in the Watch Series 8, as well as the rumored "rugged" smartwatch for extreme sports athletes. The upcoming entry-level Apple Watch SE likely won't have the sensor, though.

Sony had to make a PC gaming monitor because the PS5 isn’t enough

It's no mystery why Sony made a PC gaming monitor that can also work well with the PS5. The PC gaming business is simply too big to ignore, and it's just money on the table that's otherwise up for grabs by other monitor makers.

Sony didn't say those exact words, but it didn't have to for me to know that it's one of the reasons why it decided to announce two gaming monitors this week. Another reason is because Sony's growing focus on services means that PS Plus will eventually go beyond the console. Getting its games in front of more people instead of locking them down as exclusives has, in the past few years, become a welcome change in strategy.

Sony is late to this particular party, though. Nintendo's Switch and Valve's Steam Deck can...

Neon White’s creative director on making the ‘most video games game possible’

Posted: 03 Jul 2022 06:00 AM PDT

I don't think I've ever played something that blends genres quite like Neon White. Let me try to summarize the game: you play as a demon hunter who destroys baddies in heaven by using cards that serve as either guns or special movement abilities, and the goal is to get through each level as fast as you possibly can. It's part first-person shooter, part first-person platformer, part puzzler, part card game, part time attack, and even part visual novel.

I've struggled to come up with a better description, but in an interview, Neon White creative director Ben Esposito finally gave me one: "a really gamey game."

"It's a really unlikely game," he said. "It's a really gamey game that's full of gamey things. But the combination of elements is...

I’ve been getting tons of ‘wrong number’ spam texts, and I don’t hate it?

Posted: 03 Jul 2022 05:00 AM PDT

The text that arrived at 3:51PM on Monday, March 28th, seemed innocent at first.

"Mr. Steven," it read, "I am very sorry, after our communication and understanding during this period of time, I feel that we are not suitable in some ways."

That's odd, I thought, must be a wrong number. But who was this mysterious Mr. Steven? What was the nature of the disagreement? What the heck did Mr. Steven do to offend this person? I was intrigued — but not enough to respond.

Several weeks later, I received another text, this time from someone named "Amy" asking about "a location for coffee." A couple days after that, "Irene from Vietnam" reached out to ask if I was still living in New York. And then "Sophia" texted, calling me "Laura" and asking...

Crypto hedge fund Three Arrows files for bankruptcy

Cryptocurrency hedge fund Three Arrows Capital (3AC) filed for Chapter 15 bankruptcy in a bid to protect its US assets from creditors in the country, as reported earlier by Bloomberg and CNBC. Representatives for the Singapore-based company made the filing in a Southern District New York court on Friday, which legally protects the US assets of insolvent foreign debtors from creditors in the US.

Founded in 2012 by Kyle Davis and Su Zhu, 3AC managed about $10 billion in assets as recently as March, later sinking to $3 billion in April. Like several other crypto firms, including the lending giants Celcius and Babel Finance, 3AC's turn in fortunes is part of the so-called crypto "winter" that's brought down stablecoins and sent Bitcoin's...
