Tesla Proposes a Trillion-Dollar Bet That It's More Than Just Cars

wired.com Aarian Marshall 2025-10-13 10:26:44

For a while now, Tesla CEO Elon Musk has seemed awfully distracted. His past few years in non-Tesla activities include: buying and renaming Twitter; going all in on President Donald Trump’s election campaign and then an obscure Wisconsin Supreme Court race; a lot of babymaking, plus attendant drama; and months spent standing up the so-called Department of Government Efficiency. Meanwhile, Tesla sales have slid as the electric-car maker faces fierce competition from Chinese manufacturers and rej

gizmodo.com Lucas Ropek 2025-10-13 14:05:16

President Trump recently fired Erika McEntarfer, the head of the Bureau of Labor Statistics, accusing her of having “rigged” job reports. In her place, Trump has selected E.J. Antoni, a former Heritage Foundation economist who was photographed at the January 6th debacle (but who claims he was just a “bystander” to the chaos) and who, according to reports from CNN and Wired, formerly ran a Twitter account that posted all sorts of gnarly stuff.

’Think different’ was an iconic Apple ad campaign, and it might just be the best way to summarize the company’s new Apple TV+ strategy for movies. Here’s why recent debuts like Highest 2 Lowest and F1 reflect a growing trend of Apple making movies that Hollywood won’t.

Noah Hawley Elaborates (a Little) on His Never-Made ‘Star Trek’ Movie

gizmodo.com Cheryl Eddy 2025-10-13 18:30:19

As Star Trek eases out of its TV revival era, winnowing down its number of series to just a handful (Strange New Worlds, the upcoming Starfleet Academy), Paramount has signaled fresh interest in returning the stalwart sci-fi franchise to the big screen. As fans know, it’s been trying to make that move for years now, with stop-and-start progress on a fourth Star Trek movie to continue the “Kelvin timeline” adventures.

Prehistoric Skull Found Fused to Cave Wall May Have Belonged to Mysterious Ancient Hominid

gizmodo.com Margherita Bassi 2025-10-13 22:56:20

In 1960, a villager found something terrifyingly creepy in Greece’s Petralona cave—a humanoid cranium with a protrusion on its forehead, fused to the cave wall. Since then, researchers have been trying to date the strange specimen and understand how it got there, but these efforts so far have yielded only a frustratingly broad age range of between around 170,000 and 700,000 years. The skull’s ambiguous stratigraphic position is also less than helpful. So a team of researchers took a slightly di
