Superman Saving a Squirrel Was Cut Out of the Movie, but James Gunn Put It Back In

gizmodo.com Germain Lussier 2026-01-17 05:45:04

There are plenty of weird and unexpected moments in James Gunn’s Superman, but one of the most unexpected has to be when he saves a squirrel in the middle of a giant battle. Not a human, not a group of animals, but a single, solitary squirrel. It speaks to the character’s kindness and respect for all life in a fun, quirky way, but apparently not everyone liked it. “It was probably the second- or third-most hotly debated moment in the movie,” Gunn said in a wide-ranging interview with Rolling St

cnet.com See Full Bio 2026-01-17 04:30:04

Google has lifted the curtains on the Pixel 10, its flagship phone for 2025, via a short clip posted on the Google Store homepage on Monday. The Pixel 10 will likely be fully revealed at a Made by Google event in New York on Aug. 20. The teaser video simply shows the back of the device with the Pixel's prominent oval-shaped camera bar, along with a flash and sensor of some sort. It follows a similar design to past Pixels, but whereas the Pixels 6, 7 and 8 all had camera bars that ran edge-to-ed

This X-ray view may shed some light on Anker’s recalled power banks

Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority TL;DR A firm specializing in X-ray CT scans has investigated the recently recalled Anker power banks. The scans show there are a few differences between the recalled models and the ones not recalled. Back in June, Anker recalled over 1 million of its PowerCore 10000 power banks (model A1263). Although the company didn’t go into details about what was wrong with the device, it did mention that units sold between 2016 and 2022 pose a potential fire safety ris

Google just forced some Pixel 4a holdouts to finally install their battery-nerfing update

androidauthority.com Unknown 2026-01-17 10:30:19

David Imel / Android Authority TL;DR Google’s been dealing with the fallout of bad batteries on the Pixel 4a and Pixel 6a. So far, that’s involved updates that limit charging capacity after a certain number of cycles. While there was a trick to avoid that update on the Pixel 4a, Google seems to have closed the loophole. This year, Google has found itself forced to confront and deal with an awkward problem that’s been casting a shadow across its otherwise largely well-received Pixel smartphon

As is tradition, Google has already shown off at least one of its new Pixel phones before it's announced. The front page of the Google Store currently features a short video teasing one of the Pixel 10 smartphones the company is announcing on August 20.

Astronomers Spot Companion Star in Orbit Around Iconic Star Betelgeuse, Confirming Suspicions

gizmodo.com Gayoung Lee 2026-01-17 10:50:48

In 2024, astronomers surmised that Betelgeuse might have a stellar “buddy.” If this hypothetical companion existed, it would help answer some questions about the red supergiant’s strange glowing patterns. As it turns out, these suspicions were correct. After numerous false signals and empty search results, astronomers with NASA’s Ames Research Center have confirmed that Betelgeuse does, in fact, have a tiny buddy star. The young star, with a mass about 1.5 times that of the Sun, likely exerts s

As word spread last year that 23andMe was about to go bankrupt, many of their millions of customers wondered if they should delete their data. Social and conventional media were quick to offer advice, sometimes coming from experts in genetics and genomics–my field, I should note–on how to go onto the 23andMe website and delete all of your data. In March of this year, the California attorney general issued a warning that 23andMe was “in financial distress,” and he told Californians that they oug

FCC to eliminate gigabit speed goal and scrap analysis of broadband prices

arstechnica.com Unknown 2026-01-17 15:49:17

The Federal Communications Commission is ditching Biden-era standards for measuring progress toward the goal of universal broadband deployment. The changes will make it easier for the FCC to give the broadband industry a passing grade in an annual progress report. FCC Chairman Brendan Carr's proposal would give the industry a thumbs-up even if it falls short of 100 percent deployment, eliminate a long-term goal of gigabit broadband speeds, and abandon a new effort to track the affordability of

Flickering lights? Blown breakers? Your home needs more power - here's what to do

PM Images/Getty The hair dryer routinely trips the breaker and kills power to the second floor. The kitchen lights dim when you run the microwave. The air conditioner can only cool one room at a time on a sweltering night. You don't have adequate power in your house to support your daily needs; we've all been there.
