As Spider-Man fans look ahead to Spider-Man: Brand New Day, arriving in theaters next summer, there’s still a lot of love for 2021’s Spider-Man: No Way Home, especially for its incorporation of previous Spider-Men Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield into Tom Holland’s Marvel world.

‘Lazarus’ Is a Briefly Gorgeous Anime That Vibes Hard But Can’t Outpace Its Own Silence

When Adult Swim first announced that it was working with director Shinichirō Watanabe, Jujutsu Kaisen studio Mappa, and John Wick director Chad Stahelski on a new anime project, Lazarus already had the cards stacked against it. In the rollout of its stylish and musical trailers, the anime hewed close to Watanabe’s Cowboy Bebop aesthetics, setting it up to live up to a standard from a bygone era of animation that it would never be able to satisfy audiences with, and never tried to. Set in 2052,

The best fitness trackers and watches we’ve tested

is a senior reporter focusing on wearables, health tech, and more with 13 years of experience. Before coming to The Verge, she worked for Gizmodo and PC Magazine. Fitness trackers have come a long way from the simple bands that tracked steps and little else.

How urea forms spontaneously

Urea is one of the most important industrial chemicals produced worldwide. It is used as a fertiliser, for the production of synthetic resins and explosives and as a fuel additive for cleaning car exhaust gases. Urea is also believed to be a potential key building block for the formation of biological molecules such as RNA and DNA in connection with the question of the origin of life (see ETH News from 28 June 2023). Until now, the origin of urea itself on Early Earth has not been conclusively c

Updating my Pixel Watch was a nightmare until I did these tricks

Kaitlyn Cimino / Android Authority Most people reading this know that Google Pixel phones are some of the best you can get if you prioritize fast, reliable software updates. Most of the time, you’ll get a notification on your phone within a few days after an update goes live.

One of the best Android smartwatches I've tested is not a Google or Samsung

ZDNET's key takeaways The Mobvoi TicWatch Pro 5 Enduro is available in Obsidian black for $349 (but on sale for $160 at the time of writing).

Finally, I found a cheap smartwatch that provides extensive health data (and it's on sale)

ZDNET's key takeaways The Amazfit BIP 5 is typically sold on Amazon for $89. It's a solid budget smartwatch that integrates with the Zepp app, providing a breadth of health and fitness data.

Jon Watts Left ‘Fantastic Four’ to Get His Groove Back

Before Matt Shakman took over directing duties for the MCU’s first Fantastic Four movie, Jon Watts was in charge. The director of the Spider-Man: Home trilogy dropped out in 2022, and his reasons for leaving are completely valid: he had to take a much-needed break. During a recent storytelling class at the Mediterrane Film Festival, Watts revealed he was basically “out of gas” by the time he was wrapping Spider-Man: No Way Home, which was shot in the early days of the pandemic.

Other MagSafe Power Banks to Consider Photograph: Simon Hill We like a few other MagSafe power banks that didn’t make it into our top picks.

Amazon Is Building a Gigantic Computing Facility to Match the Human Brain

But to what end? Fields of Data Indiana's newest cash crop isn't soybeans or corn; it's AI data centers — lots and lots of AI data centers. The New York Times reports that Amazon is building a vast complex of AI infrastructure facilities on top of 1,200 acres of former cropland, all meant for startup Anthropic's project to build an AI model that is as powerful, complex — and, just possibly, as intelligent — as the human brain. To that end, Amazon has constructed seven data centers on site, w

I tested the Garmin Vivoactive 6 and Apple Watch SE, and I still prefer Garmin as a gym mate

Kaitlyn Cimino / Android Authority The Apple Watch SE is the blueprint for what most people expect from a smartwatch: a clean design, deep smartphone integration, and enough wellness tracking features to stay reasonably healthy. At a reduced price compared to the brand’s flagship lineup, the SE is also accessible. However, with the launch of the Vivoactive 6, Garmin seems to be stepping up to the plate with a potential competitor. After testing both watches side by side, it’s clear Garmin isn’

I’ll only upgrade to the Galaxy Watch 8 if it focuses on these 2 features

Kaitlyn Cimino / Android Authority I’ve used several smartwatches throughout my career, switching between devices to match my changing priorities. However, the one smartwatch I always return to is my Galaxy Watch 4. Now paired with a Galaxy smartphone, it’s become the center of my ecosystem.
