Oracle's stock on pace for best week since 2001 on cloud momentum

cnbc.com Jordan Novet 2025-09-18 01:36:15

Oracle shares are on pace for their best week since 2001 as Wall Street cheers a strong earnings report and bullish comments on the company's prospects in cloud computing. The stock is up about 24% for the week, with almost all the gains coming in the two trading days after the company's quarterly earnings release. The last time Oracle had a better week was in April 2001, in the midst of the dot-com crash, when so-called dead-cat bounces were common. The prior quarter Oracle shares lost almost

Former Tesla Dealership Manager Says It's "Game Over" for Elon Musk

futurism.com Unknown 2025-09-18 00:18:03

Back in May, as Tesla Takedown rallies and anti-Musk vandalism rocked the world, Tesla dealership manager Matthew LaBrot launched "Tesla Employees Against Elon" — an act of protest that swiftly got him fired. We wrote about LaBrot's symbolic act of defiance against Musk's political maneuvers at the time. Now, a fresh tell-all interview with Hard Reset is shining some light on just how drastically things have changed for Tesla over the past few months. LaBrot is, first and foremost, a Tesla sup

Snapseed sprouts its first new growth in years, as major update blooms

Megan Ellis / Android Authority TL;DR Google has rolled out a big update to the Snapseed app for iPhone and iPad. The update refreshes the look and adds a new “Faves” tab. It appears there are no plans to update the Android version. You may remember Snapseed, the photo editing app Google acquired back in 2012. It’s been a while since Snapseed received a big update, but it looks like one just rolled out. The catch is that the update is only available for the iPhone and iPad. Spotted by 9to5G

The Internet Archive made it easier to search for '90s-era GIFs. GifCities contains millions of animations from the decade of flannel shirts and Soup Nazis. The GIFs were pulled from old GeoCities webpages, which (mostly) bit the dust in 2009. The new version of GifCities is much easier to search. You can now search semantically, based on the animation's content. In other words, it's much more likely to bring up the topic or scene you're looking for by describing it.

As previously reported, the British Film Institute had been advertising that it would be screening a very rare print of George Lucas’ Star Wars from its original theatrical run. It’s the version of the film you can basically never see anymore, at least not officially, so Kennedy showed up at the event to change that. “I’m here to make sure you don’t think
