You know what's cool about finding someone you're actually into? Holding hands. Making out. Gazing into each other's (actual) eyes. You know where you can't do these things? In the void. So why the hell are people proposing in virtual reality?
Black Mirror is bringing its brand of haunting dystopian storytelling away from the television screen and into the realm of books — and now we know the authors who will help bring Charlie Brooker's weird, often morbid world to the page.
Not to scare you, but you're getting hit with radiation constantly. First, there's just regular old light (yep, that's a kind of radiation). Then there are low levels of higher energy radiation such as the kind in nuclear reactors, including particles coming out of the soil and off of bananas. But the highest-energy radiation is the weirdest stuff. It's literally out of this galaxy.
In the capitalistic nightmare we live in, everything has to be a transaction. So, when Pact launched its fitness app that let you make money for working out — or else pay a fee for failing to do so — it seemed to be the perfect motivational tool. There was just one problem: The company apparently wasn't that great at paying up, and was it too good at collecting fees.
Crossovers are a staple of comic fiction, whether that's in the books themselves, in the movies, or even in the video game adaptations. At their best, they're fannish delights, getting to hint at what it would be like for such disparate characters to really meet. At their worst, they're squandered opportunities.
Marvel and ABC's beleaguered Inhumans series can't seem to catch a break. Though the series doesn't actually start airing on network television until next week, the ad copy on a new poster for the show has a number of people speculating that Inhumans won't see a second season.
Facebook founder and NASCAR enthusiast Mark Zuckerberg likes a lot of things. He likes Facebook. He likes being in charge of Facebook. He even likes talking about how much he likes being in charge of Facebook. Mark Zuckerberg does not, however, like it when reporters publish embarrassing but true details about how he runs his Facebook page.
Citizen, the extremely dubious rebranding of Vigilante — an app which notifies users of 911 reports near them and encourages them to go out and shoot videos of the crimes and their aftermath — has somehow managed to acquire a new round of eight-figure funding.
M. Night Shyamalan is making his own comic book universe, even if it isn't based on an actual comic book. Unbreakable stars Bruce Willis and Samuel L. Jackson, as well as Split lead James McAvoy, are set to reprise their roles in Shyamalan's latest superhero instalment, Glass.
Every year, Audio-Technica releases a limited edition pair of its world-famous M50x headphones. In previous years the M50 line has been blue, black, white, matte grey... and this year, they look like Iron Man.
Back in April, at Facebook's annual developer conference, the company announced an ambitious — and very creepy! — plan to read its users' minds. Facebook's secretive hardware R&D division, Building 8, planned to develop its own "brain-to-computer interface" hardware that would allow a user to send words straight from her brain to a computer by merely thinking. But until now, we've heard scant details as to how exactly Facebook plans to accomplish this.
Bose's QuietComfort 35 headphones are probably my favourite noise-cancelling headphones ever. I lost my pair a month ago on a flight out of China, and the memory still pains me. Lo and behold, what should Bose do but release a new model, the QuietComfort 35 II, with a dedicated button for activating Google's voice-powered Assistant.
Guys, I could turn on the lights in my house with my headphones.
Is it a phone? Or maybe a tablet with removable gamepads kind of like a Nintendo Switch? No one really knows, but Razer has been rumoured to be working on a mobile gaming gaming device for quite some time now, and according to a new interview between CNBC and Razer CEO Min-Liang Tan, it seems like that might actually happen.
Video: From the looks of it, the new Tomb Raider reboot is set to be a massive pivot from Angelina Jolie's much-derided take on the character. Instead, it's much more inspired by the 2013 Tomb Raider game that followed a much younger Lara Croft on her very first tomb raiding mission.
On or shortly after next Tuesday in Delaware's Court of Chancery, the founder and CEO of Facebook will take the stand for the second time this year. Unlike the intellectual property case against Zenimax that forced Facebook to cough up $US500 million ($631 million), Mark Zuckerberg stands to lose some of the control he's maintained over his his company over a suit pertaining to the bone-dry topic of stock restructuring. Don't worry, it's more digestible than it sounds.
The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has disclosed that hackers accessed sensitive information from its systems about publicly traded companies. And while the SEC has so far been tight-lipped about what kind of fallout the hack will have, the agency acknowledges that the hackers have probably conducted trades using the information.
The Lego Ninjago Movie starts like a strobe light and ends like a night light. At first, it's bright, loud, fast, and in your face — a constant barrage of visuals and sounds. Then it slows down considerably, focusing on the story and character development. One part is better than the other but neither is great, and, unlike Legos, they just don't fit together.
