‘The Penguin’ Team Had Talks About Bringing in Robert Pattinson’s Batman

gizmodo.com Germain Lussier 2025-11-12 02:30:09

Almost a year has passed since audiences were first exposed to HBO’s The Penguin, and to call it a success would be an understatement. The show didn’t just find fans among critics and audiences alike; everyone involved has been swimming in awards ever since, with its recent 24 Emmy nominations being the latest. And yet, before its release, many were skeptical of the show. Why would we want to see this story? And did it make sense to do a Batman villain story without Batman himself? To that last

Show HN: Anchor Relay – A faster, easier way to get Let's Encrypt certificates

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-11-12 11:13:18

Anchor Relay excels when security and simplicity matter. You don't need to expose port 80 or forward HTTP - all certificate validation happens outbound. Configure DNS once up front rather than spreading API credentials everywhere. It works out of the box with tools like Certbot and integrates with tools like Caddy and cert-manager.

Worried about the Pixel 10 Pro XL benchmark controversy? Here’s why you shouldn’t be

Well, friends, the day has finally come: Google Pixel day. Today is the day that Google will officially reveal the Pixel 10 series after months of leaks, and it’s a day we should all be excited about. Instead, a lot of Pixel fans are upset and complaining. Those complaints stem from a last-minute Pixel 10 Pro XL benchmark leak, supposedly showing just how fast Google’s new Tensor G5 chip is. Assuming the benchmarks are legit, the good news is that the Tensor G5 is faster than the Tensor G4. How

When it comes to Severance, there are rarely simple answers. Everything is wrapped in mystery and intrigue. Which, admittedly, is kind of the best part about it. We love to explore and speculate about what’s going on at Lumon. And yet, getting an answer, even a small one, here and there is nice. Which is what the creator of the show, Dan Erickson, just did.

Researchers Find Strange Link Between Marathon Running and Cancer

gizmodo.com Ed Cara 2025-11-14 16:50:30

Some of the most physically fit people in the world may have a unique health risk. New research uncovers a possible link between marathon running and colorectal cancer. Oncologists at the Inova Schar Cancer Institute in Virginia conducted the study, which examined the colons of relatively young people who had run several long-distance races. They found these runners had a much higher rate of having potentially dangerous adenomas (a type of polyp) than would be expected for their age. Though the

Why Pooping on Planes Might Actually Be a Good Thing

gizmodo.com Margherita Bassi 2025-11-15 11:55:19

Researchers have developed a new critical warning system for the spread of antimicrobial resistant (AMR) superbugs: poop and pee from airplane bathrooms. Scientists predict that by 2050, AMR superbugs, or pathogens that don’t respond to antimicrobial medicines, might take more lives than cancer. As such, it’s critical for countries to keep an eye on the global propagation of these dangerous pathogens, which can travel with people, in order to best prepare for future infections.

Pick up Apple's AirPods Pro 2 while they're down to $169

They might be nearly three years old at this point, but Apple’s second-generation AirPods Pro remain some of the most popular wireless earbuds around for a reason, and right now they’re down to $169 on Amazon. That’s a not-insignificant 32 percent off the usual $249 price of the noise-canceling in-ears. Apple’s flagship AirPods were $100 off — a record-low $149 — during Prime Day, so we have seen them even cheaper than this, but for a non-sale period, Amazon’s current deal is worth considering.

Power users of OpenAI's blockbuster chatbot ChatGPT were left largely unimpressed by the company's recently unveiled GPT-5 AI model. Those who became familiar with the convivial and sycophantic tone of GPT-5's predecessor were particularly distraught by its "cold" and far less supportive demeanor, accusing OpenAI of cutting corners. The pushback was significant enough for OpenAI to both make previous iterations available once more to paying customers — and even to lean back into the sycophancy
