Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey opens in theaters one year from this Thursday—on July 17, 2026—and something big might be coming to celebrate. Showtimes (just showtimes, not a way to actually buy tickets) for select IMAX 70mm screenings of the film have begun to show up on ticketing websites, which is odd because a) It’s over a year in advance, b) Nolan is still making the movie, which means c) there isn’t a locked-in runtime yet. And yet, if you head over to a site like Fandango, there they ar
Sony’s subsidiary Aniplex Inc. has made Resident Evil: Survival Unit available for pre-order on the App Store, ahead of its release. Way ahead, as it turns out. Here are the details. Pre-order now, get it… December 31 (but likely before that) Earlier this month, developer Aniplex announced Resident Evil: Survival Unit, a new mobile strategy game for iOS and Android set in the iconic zombie-infested universe that spans nearly three decades of console and PC games, multiple remakes, and several
Former Sequoia partner Matt Miller has already locked in $355 million for his new VC firm, Evantic, which is also backed by Sequoia, TechCrunch learned. Last December, Miller announced his departure from Sequoia after twelve years to “start [his] own fund focused on the great founders of Europe.” Despite the European focus, TechCrunch’s understanding is that Evantic will actually invest on both sides of the Atlantic, with a focus on B2B companies at the Series B and growth stages. However, its
Anthropic's Claude can now create and edit designs with visual studio Canva from within an AI chat. This integration is powered by a Canva server that uses Anthropic's Model Context Protocol, or MCP. Claude can use Canvas's tools to generate a design or search for materials within a user's Canva workspace. This functionality requires a paid subscription to Claude, and access also varies based on the user's Canva plan. Multiple artificial intelligence platforms have started using MCP to connect
JEFF PACHOUD/Getty Images Although Google's earlier-than-expected release of Android 16 was missing a few important features, the updated OS does deliver improved security that every Android user would be well-advised to enable. I'll explain these two key security features and how to find and enable them. Also: Google quietly confirms ChromeOS-Android merger - here's what it means for you 1.

ZDNET's key takeaways At $199, the Tapo RV20 Max is an affordable option that works surprisingly well. The RV20 Max robot vacuum features strong 5,300Pa suction, great navigation skills that don't use the bump-and-run system, and plenty of customization options for the price. On the downside, the Tapo RV20 Max doesn't have great obstacle avoidance, often getting its brush tangled with cables and small items.

ZDNET's key takeaways The new Ecovacs Deebot N30 Omni retails for $700 This midrange robot vacuum and mop features auto-emptying, mop washing and drying, and strong suction, which we were able to confirm during testing The downside is that the Deebot N30 Omni doesn't boast the best obstacle avoidance capabilities, which significantly hinders how often you have to rescue it after it gets stuck on a small object. $669.99 at Amazon $379.98 at Walmart more buying choices I've tested robot vacuums
CFOTO / Contributor/Getty Claude just gained a little more autonomy. Anthropic, the AI start-up behind Claude, announced Monday that the system can now directly interact with and pull information from a directory of third-party apps and websites, including Stripe, Figma, Prisma, Canva, Asana, and others. The idea is to save users time that would ordinarily be spent transferring information from Claude's outputs into one of those external services, and vice versa. Also: Claude might be my new

Starting today, Claude users will be able to use natural language prompts to complete design tasks in their linked Canva account, such as creating presen
Yesterday’s emerging tech is now essential to business success — and the next wave is coming fast. To maintain competitive advantage through the next five years, which innovations must forward-thinking companies prioritize right now?

Weekly subscriptions have now become one of the most popular ways iOS apps are earning revenue, with these plans contributing 46% to the bottom line, according to a new report by app revenue management platform Adapty. The study, which observed $1.9 billion in revenue across more than 11,000 apps, noted that weekly plans have grown by 9.5% this year compared to one-time purchases, which grew by 6.3% in the first quarter. Other paid plans, including monthly, yearly, and lifetime subscriptions, d

I’m Carter, I lead growth and operations at Handstand [a bit more on me here]. I grew up just outside of Portland, Oregon - naturally, Nike has been in my orbit and part of my life since day one (see below: “Dear Santa, please bring me a pair of Chicago 1s”). It’s an inspiring brand we discuss and think about often, so I decided to write about it. Excited to continue sharing more perspectives from different voices on the team.

Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority TL;DR T-Mobile has added two new privacy toggles: one for sharing certain financial information and another for fraud/identity theft protection. The first toggle allows T-Mobile to share your financial data with affiliates and marketers, while the second is meant to help detect fraud. You can disable both toggles in the T-Life app, and for most people, turning off the first is strongly recommended. T-Mobile and the other big carriers have a certain reputat
Appendix H. Peterson's Algorithm In 1981, Gary L. Peterson came up with a beautiful solution to the mutual exclusion problem, now known as ``Peterson's Algorithm'' [37]. Figure 5.6 presents the algorithm. Why does it work? We will focus here on how one might go about proving mutual exclusion for an algorithm such as Peterson's. It turns out that doing so is not trivial. You have to understand a little bit about how the Harmony virtual machine (HVM) works. In Chapter 4 we talked about the concep
Sun Day is available now for iOS via TestFlight, and the code for the project is available on GitHub. The app uses location-based data to display your local UV index and sunlight hours. You can detail your skin type and clothing level, then manually toggle when you’re in and out of the sun and the app will track your rough vitamin D levels for the day, along with how long you can be in direct sunlight without burning.

Most VPN providers offer a VPN app for Mac computers, but it can be difficult to choose the right provider with so many options available. Based on our extensive research and hands-on testing of VPNs over the years, these are the most important factors to consider when choosing a VPN: Privacy The primary consideration for any VPN -- including a Mac VPN -- should be privacy. If your Mac VPN is unable to sufficiently protect your online privacy, then your VPN is useless. At a minimum, your VPN s
Few tech products have been as broadly contentious as video-generating artificial intelligence. These complex algorithms, which cleave millions of datapoints together into seconds-long gobs of video, are notoriously trained on proprietary material, leading to widespread ethical and legal concerns. (That's before we even mention how much energy it takes to synthesize an AI video.) Tech billionaires tend to argue that this is simply the way things need to be — if you want AI, we need to feed it
