DC Ends ‘Red Hood’ Comic After Writer’s Charlie Kirk Comments

gizmodo.com Justin Carter 2025-10-06 05:04:05

DC Comics canceled its new, mature-rated Red Hood comic just hours after it launched on September 10 because its writer made comments about the assassination of right-wing activist and Turning Point USA creator Charlie Kirk at Utah University. Red Hood writer Gretchen Felker-Martin made comments and joked on social media about Kirk’s death—which occurred on the same day as the comic’s launch. Red Hood, which Felker-Martin was creating along with artist Jeff Spokes, will discontinue after its f

CRISPR Offers New Hope for Treating Diabetes

news.ycombinator.com Javier Carbajal 2025-10-06 08:45:28

Crispr gene-editing technology has demonstrated its revolutionary potential in recent years: It has been used to treat rare diseases, to adapt crops to withstand the extremes of climate change, or even to change the color of a spider’s web. But the greatest hope is that this technology will help find a cure for a global disease, such as diabetes. A new study points in that direction.

Best Travel Cameras (2025), Tested and Reviewed

wired.com Scott Gilbertson 2025-10-06 09:00:00

If you want a camera that has a capable zoom, shoots excellent RAW images and great 4K/30 fps video, and manages to fit in most pockets, the Sony RX100 VII is your best bet. The Zeiss Vario-Sonnar T* 24-200-mm F2.8-4.5 zoom lens allows a huge range of shots from something that's pocketable—this alone makes it a great travel camera. The 1-inch sensor produces 20.1-MP images (RAW or JPG or both) and while f/2.8 isn't the fastest aperture, it's enough to handle shooting indoors in moderate light. T

Zaslav spoke about the future of the streaming service at the Goldman Sachs Communacopia + Technology Conference. “The fact that this is quality — and that’s true across our company, motion picture, TV production, and streaming quality — we all think that gives us a chance to raise price,” he said. “We

Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority AT&T takes a different approach than Verizon and T-Mobile when it comes to promotions, upgrades, and special deals. While its rivals often advertise free phones with no trade-in required, AT&T rarely offers devices entirely free up front. That can make it less appealing to switchers, but the trade-off is that existing customers typically get the same deals as new ones.
