Let’s Talk About the Ending, and End Credits, of ‘Superman’

It feels almost offensive to immediately look past Superman now that the film is in theaters, but you kind of have to. After waiting several years to see what James Gunn had in store for this official kickoff to this brand-new, rebooted DC Universe, now we know. But, in surprising fashion, Gunn’s revelations aren’t shoved into end credits scenes like so many other comic book movies before. His biggest teases are in the movie itself, with the two end credits scenes serving a different purpose. Le

[Open Thread] Google bought Android 20 years ago, did it make it better or worse?

Rita El Khoury / Android Authority It’s been 20 years to the day since Google made what you might consider its “best deal ever” by acquiring a small, unknown startup called Android, Inc. The founders, Andy Rubin and Chris White, had first set out to build an operating system for digital cameras, but when they failed to attract investors in 2004, they pivoted to creating a mobile operating system, and went pitching their new project looking for investor support. Google’s Larry Page saw the signs

Microsoft and OpenAI's AGI Fight Is Bigger Than a Contract

I first learned about The Clause from Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella. During an interview with him in May 2023, I asked about the deal between Microsoft and OpenAI that granted his company exclusive access to the startup’s groundbreaking AI technology. I knew the contract had set a cap on how much profit Microsoft could make from the arrangement, and I asked him what would happen if and when that point was reached. The answer was a bit puzzling. “Fundamentally, their long-term idea is we get to su

When the TRS-80 Model I was released in 1977, the microcomputer market was small, centered around hobbyists, and many computer owners had built their machines from off-the-shelf components and/or kits. Tandy, Apple, and Commodore completely changed the market, but even th

Samsung may be rethinking the Galaxy S26 lineup, and the clues are hiding in model numbers

Lanh Nguyen / Android Authority TL;DR A new leak shows the base Galaxy S26 with a notable jump in its model number (SM-S942), suggesting potentially significant hardware changes.

A Bold Mission to Hunt for Aliens on Venus Is Actually Happening

A UK-based mission is aiming to settle, once and for all, whether life exists on Venus. The mission plans to send a probe to the planet in search of microbial life, not on the surface, of course, but in the Venusian clouds. Over the past half-decade, scientists have detected the presence of phosphine and ammonia—two potential signs of biological activity—in Venus’s clouds. On Earth, both gases are produced only by biological activity and industrial processes, and scientists are unsure of their

I’m Rewatching the Jurassic Park Movies to Get in the Mood for Jurassic World: Rebirth. Here’s Where You Can Binge the Whole Franchise

I first encountered Jurassic Park one fateful day during middle school when my teacher rolled in a cart topped with a CRT television, popped in a VHS tape of Jurassic Park and pressed play. I was instantly hooked and I've since watched the film countless times, including a 2013 trip to see the movie in 3D on the big screen at my AMC theater. Jurassic World: Rebirth hit cinemas on July 2 and I've been rewatching the entire series to get in the mood. With run times ranging from 1 hour and 32 minu
