There’s been speculation about a HomePod with a built-in display for a while now, and it looks like we could see the redesigned HomePod sooner rather than later.According to 9to5Mac, code in tvOS 17.4 beta 3 references a new device capable of running the software “Z314.” Apple TV and HomePod both run tvOS, despite the latter lacking a user interface. In the source code, the “Z314” is powered by an A15 Bionic chip, and the code reveals there are production versions of the product in testing. tvOS 17.4 beta 3 also adds…

Bandai Namco. The Tekken series isn’t just known for its slick 3D fighting. Like the Soul Calibur series, Tekken has become just as celebrated for its excellent character customizer over the years. As seen with Street Fighter 6‘s create-a-character, if you give players access to a tool this powerful, then you can expect tons of designs ranging from jaw-droppingly impressive to just plain weird. In Tekken 8‘s case, players immediately began creating their own dream guest characters using the customization mode once it…

During the peak of its notable decline, Netflix implemented one of its most hated changes, the password-sharing crackdown. Many viewed this as the nail in the coffin for Netflix, but it proved successful. Now, after Disney+ has followed suit, Hulu is going to bring its own password-sharing crackdown. Other streaming services and the internet at large pretty much laughed at Netflix when it started cracking down on password-sharing. However, when Netflix officially brought down the hammer, it actually proved successful in…

Even those who agreed that jobs will come back in “the long run” were concerned that “displaced wage-earners must eat and care for their families ‘in the short run.’” This analysis reconciled the reality all around—millions without jobs—with the promise of progress and the benefits of innovation. Compton, a physicist, was the first chair of a scientific advisory board formed by Franklin D. Roosevelt, and he began his 1938 essay with a quote from the board’s 1935 report to the president: “That our national health,…

The ousted founder of bankrupt EV startup Lordstown Motors has launched a new company called LandX Motors, that prominently displays the same electric pickup truck he once promised would beat Tesla, Ford and General Motors to market. Steve Burns, a self-described “serial entrepreneur,” bought most of the remaining assets of his former startup late last year as part of the Lordstown’s Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings, including a large chunk of its electric pickup trucks. On a new website for…

The Motional Pad is great, the terrible name aside. It seems like a bit of a gimmick at first — a large X/Y touchpad, not unlike the Korg Kaoss Pad, dedicated to modulation. But once you get past the initial strangeness (and Roland’s factory patches that lean hard into its gimmicky side), it’s hard not to see the value. It’s used to control the waveshaping and phase modulation of oscillator one, but you can also assign almost any parameter you want to the X and Y axis and change them by simply dragging…

If you were looking forward to using Apple Vision Pro with native YouTube and Spotify apps once the headset launches on February 2, we’ve got bad news for you.According to Mark Gurman at Bloomberg, not only are these companies joining Netflix in not offering a Vision Pro app — but their iPad apps, which can easily be made to work on the headset, won’t be allowed on the platform either.Instead, you’ll be asked to use Apple’s Safari web browser — completely missing the point of what a video app is capable of with Vision…
