The Members of the Dull Men's Club

The 18th-century English writer Samuel Johnson once wrote, “He is not only dull himself; he is the cause of dullness in others’. It’s a sentiment eagerly embraced by The Dull Men’s Club. Several million members in a number of connected Facebook groups strive to cause dullness in others on a daily basis. In this club, they wear their dullness with pride. The duller the better.

‘Predator 2’ Walked So the New Films Could Run

After 'Predator: Killer of Killers,' we decided to give the Danny Glover 1990 sequel a spin and were pleasantly surprised. Predator 2 is a very weird movie. As a concept, you totally understand why it exists. It’s a 1990 sequel to the 1987 hit starring Arnold Schwarzenegger, taking the titular character into a completely new location and pitting him against a new high-profile, macho movie star. Schwarzenegger was in the jungles of Central America, and Danny Glover is in the concrete jungles of

Federal Forecasters Lose Access to Critical Tool as Hurricane Season Begins

As Atlantic hurricane season surges to life, federal forecasters must say goodbye to one of their most valuable tools—Saildrones.

For the past four years, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has deployed Saildrones to improve the accuracy of its hurricane forecasts and warnings. The small drone ships have played an especially impor

Michael Sheen Sounds Unconvinced That the ‘Good Omens’ Finale Special Will Be Released

It’s been a roller-coaster of emotions for Good Omens fans since that heartbreaking season two finale. News that the Prime Video adaptation would get a third and final season came in December 2023; the following year, production was reportedly paused amid the allegations against showrunner and source material co-author Neil Gaiman.

Here We Go Again: TikTok Sale Deadline Approaches

The clock just never seems to run out for TikTok. A federal ban of the wildly popular social media app is set to kick in later this week, unless it reaches a deal to sell itself to a buyer deemed fit by US officials, or it's given yet another extension to do so by President Donald Trump. Many observers are betting on the extension. The New York Post and the Wall Street Journal both published stories earlier this month quoting anonymous sources who said Trump planned to issue one.

Patreon to Take Bigger Cut From New Creators Starting This Summer: Here's What to Do

Patreon is changing its business model, and new creators will soon feel the difference. Starting later this summer, Patreon will increase the percentage it takes from newly launched creator accounts.

In the hours after Vance Boelter was named as the suspect in the fatal shooting of Melissa Hortman, a Democratic Minnesota state representative, and her husband Mark Hortman, far-right conspiracists and Republican influencers claimed he was a violent, leftist Democrat. “The far left is murderously violent,” Elon Musk wrote on X on Saturday, a post that remains on the site and has been viewed over 50 million times.

Instagram tests a reposts feature

Instagram is testing the ability for users to repost posts, the company confirmed to TechCrunch on Monday. The move doesn’t come as a surprise, as the social network was spotted developing the feature as far back as 2022.

Of course, not everyone will be on board if Instagram decides to roll out the change officially, especially si

AMD shares rise 10% after analysts say they expect a 'snapback' for chipmaker

Shares of Advanced Micro Devices rose nearly 10% on Monday after analysts at Piper Sandler lifted their price target on the stock on optimism about the chipmaker's latest product announcement.

James Webb Peers Into Mysterious Haze Covering Pluto

Astronomers using the James Webb Space Telescope have peered into a mysterious blue haze cloaking the surface of Pluto — and discovered that it's controlling the dwarf planet's climate and atmosphere. The findings, reported in a new study published in the journal Nature Astronomy, also hint that other worlds, including our own, may have a hazy history as well, potentially reshaping our understanding of how the Earth came to possess its current climate.

MagSafe Monday: ArmorGo Magnetic Wallet Stand adds a solid kickstand and RFID protection in a slim design

MagSafe accessories continue to be a mix of great ideas and daily annoyances, but I keep trying them all. I’ve tried enough wallets to fill a drawer in my desk, and most of them get something right, but miss on a few minor things. Recently, I’ve been trying some new wallets that do more than hold credit cards. That’s what caught my eye with the BENKS ArmorGo Magnetic Wallet Stand, and I’ve been using it for the past few weeks.
