‘Helluva Boss’ Team Breaches Tumblr Containment With ‘Homestuck’ Animated Series

gizmodo.com Justin Carter 2025-08-27 19:40:53

The most online of people likely remember Homestuck, Andrew Hussie’s internet fiction series. After Hussie ended the webcomic in 2016, loyal fans have kept it alive with various side projects and Hussie’s occasional guidance. Now, it’s getting its biggest side project yet in the form of an animated series. Or rather, the pilot for one. This comes courtesy of Hazbin Hotel creator Vivienne Medrano and her animation company Spindlehorse, and with some well-known voice talent attached. Video game a

Tesla’s Cybertruck Is Suddenly Sold Out (Sort Of)

gizmodo.com Luc Olinga 2025-08-27 19:52:03

After months of being a commercial disaster, something curious is happening with the Tesla Cybertruck. For the first time since its troubled launch, Elon Musk’s futuristic pickup is showing signs of life. The wait time for the Cybertruck’s cheapest model has suddenly stretched to over a month, suggesting a spike in demand for a vehicle that, until now, almost no one seemed to want. The question is whether this is a genuine turnaround for the polarizing pickup or just a temporary sugar rush fuel

James Mardsen’s Happy to Be Cyclops Again for ‘Avengers: Doomsday’

gizmodo.com Justin Carter 2025-08-27 21:00:11

After The Marvels and Deadpool & Wolverine laid the groundwork for more Fox X-Men to return, Avengers: Doomsday is going all in by bringing back several non-Wolverine (or Professor X) characters from the original films. Among them is James Marsden, who played Cyclops in that initial trilogy and didn’t really get to do much in them. Speaking to Vanity Fair, the actor recalled “20 years of listening to people say, ‘When are you coming back? When are you coming back? Are you coming back?’ But I’m

OpenAI Brings Back Fan-Favorite GPT-4o After a Massive User Revolt

After a disastrous 72 hours that saw its most loyal users in open revolt, OpenAI is making a major U-turn.

“Are you watching?” asks a creepy voice in the trailer for Weapons. And the answer to that question is a resounding “yes.” Per Variety, Zach Cregger’s sophomore outing earned $70 million worldwide. Domestically, its $42.5 million take was $10 million ahead of projections, and its overall take marks another win for New Line and parent company Warner Bros.

A Kentucky Town Experimented With AI. The Results Were Stunning

gizmodo.com Ece Yildirim 2025-08-28 00:34:47

A county in Kentucky conducted a month-long “town hall” with nearly 8,000 residents in attendance earlier this year, thanks to artificial intelligence technology. Bowling Green, Kentucky’s third largest city and a part of Warren County, is facing a huge population spike by 2050. To scale the city in preparation for this, county officials wanted to incorporate the community’s input. Community outreach is tough business: town halls, while employed widely, don’t tend to gather a huge crowd, and w

The Real Reason You Haven’t Been Replaced by AI Yet

gizmodo.com Luc Olinga 2025-08-28 00:44:46

It’s the ticking time bomb in the global economy, and every CEO knows it: AI is already powerful enough to replace millions of jobs. So why haven’t the mass layoffs begun? The answer has little to do with technology and everything to do with fear. Corporate leaders are quietly waiting to see who will be the first to pull the trigger. My discussions about Generative AI reveal a stark generational divide. Most people under 35 are convinced that AI is a reality, not a gimmick, and that the displac

Trump Is Undermining Trust in Official Economic Statistics. China Shows Where That Path Can Lead

Welcome back! Louise here. On Friday, President Trump fired one of the nation’s top economists after her agency published a disappointing jobs report. Trump claimed the numbers were “RIGGED,” but there’s no evidence that Erika McEntarfer or the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) did anything improper. The new employment data, however, suggested Trump’s policies are having a negative impact on the US economy. In the days since, Republicans have piled on, baselessly accusing McEntarfer of putting o

Phones were getting powerful enough to run console-like experiences, but the industry hadn’t yet drowned in gatcha tactics, ads after every level, or endless battle passes. Instead, developers focused on compelling single-player experiences, short but addictive gameplay loops, and just the right balance of challenge and accessibility.

It is the final poem in the collection, appearing directly after The Waste Land. To say it was first published in 1925 is a little misleading. The third section (of the five) appeared in the 1924 miscellany The Chapbook. It was part of a grouping of three lyrics under the title “Doris’s Dream Songs.” (Most of the contributors to The Chapbook are forgotten.
