The ADL Defended Elon Musk’s ‘Awkward Gesture.’ Now He Calls It a Hate Group

When Elon Musk gave two Nazi-style salutes the day President Donald Trump was inaugurated in January, the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) came to the billionaire’s defense, saying it was just an “awkward gesture.” But Musk clearly doesn’t have the same kind of affection for the ADL. “The ADL hates Christians, therefore it is is a hate group,” Musk wrote in a tweet Sunday. The ADL hates Christians, therefore it is is a hate group — Elon Musk (@elonmusk) September 28, 2025 The billionaire Tesla CE

‘Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse’ Has Swapped Its Release Date Again

The ‘Silent Night, Deadly Night’ Remake Doesn’t Ring in the Holiday Cheer

A serial killer dressed as Santa Claus hacks his way through a small Minnesota town. Along the way, he also falls in love with a local business owner. He’s evil; he should be the villain, but in Silent Night, Deadly Night, we’re forced to consider, maybe he’s not? Written and directed by Mike P. Nelson, Silent Night, Deadly Night is a remake of the 1984 cult classic of the same name by Charles E. Sellier Jr. That film also followed a man dressed as Santa who thinks he’s killing for good, but, i

‘Predator: Badlands’ Wants to be a Relationship Story

As the current steward of the Predator franchise, director Dan Trachtenberg seems very conscious of not repeating himself. While fans are still holding out hope for Prey 2, there can be no complaints about the shortage of new material in the Predator universe. We already got the animated anthology film Predator: Killer of Killers earlier this year, and there’ll be a whole new flavor of sci-fi survival coming in November’s Predator: Badlands. In a new interview with Empire, Trachtenberg teased j

Google Tasks may finally add this critical time-management feature (APK teardown)

Andy Walker / Android Authority TL;DR We’ve spotted that Google Tasks looks to be testing deadline support. Deadlines would only be an option to add when editing a task, rather than when it’s created. The test version does not allow you to specify a deadline time and does not display the due date in the main list view. Google Tasks has always been a bare-bones tool. For some, that’s part of the appeal, but its stripped-down approach often leaves power users wanting more. The lack of sharing,

Waymo’s Tekedra Mawakana on Scaling Self-Driving Beyond the Hype

Autonomous vehicles have long been touted as “just around the corner,” but the reality of bringing self-driving cars to the streets is far from simple. At TechCrunch Disrupt 2025 — October 27–29 at Moscone West in San Francisco — Waymo co-CEO Tekedra Mawakana joins the Disrupt Stage for a wide-ranging conversation on the true state of AVs and where the industry goes from here.

‘The Long Walk’ Star Garrett Wareing on His Character’s Big Surprise

Now that The Long Walk is in theaters, members of its ensemble cast are free to talk spoilers. The movie, based on Stephen King’s story, revolves around a literal death march, so it’s not surprising that not all of the stars make it to the finish line. The brutal twists come with what order they go down—and at least one other surprising nuggets shared along the way. In a new interview with Deadline, Garrett Wareing, who plays Billy Stebbins, talked about his experiences on the film as well as w

Amazon's Blade Runner limited series finally has a release window. Deadline reports that the upcoming sequel show, Blade Runner 2099, is slated for a 2026 release on Prime Video.

The Skydance-Paramount Megamerger Could Lead to Legendary Jumping Ship

A new report from Deadline reveals that Paramount, under David Ellison, is working out a deal with Legendary. This comes on the heels of the Duffer Brothers’ Upside Down Productions moving from Netflix to Paramount over the weekend. The shakeups continue, as Legendary is now interested in starting a multi-picture global theatrical distribution deal through Skydance. The agreement, as Deadline reported, has been in the works since the spring and would exclude China but would give Paramount a bui

The ‘Predator’ Dropped In San Diego For a Surprise ‘Badlands’ Experience

Usually, activations at San Diego Comic-Con are announced at least a few weeks in advance. That gives fans an opportunity to prioritize their favorites, map them out, and then hit the ground running. This year though, one major experience seemed to join the party late. That’s Predator Badlands, which took over a huge section attached to the Hard Rock Hotel across from the convention center. Outside, security answered the questions of passersby about when the experience would open. And inside, th

Oh Lord, ‘Peacemaker’ Has Its Foxy Season 2 Song

One of the best, most everlasting parts of that first season of Peacemaker was its opening credits as the antihero and friends (and his dad) danced to “Do You Wanna Taste It?” by Wig Wam. With season two less than a month out, everyone’s been wondering what its song would be, and the answer is…”Oh Lord” by Foxy Shazam. During Saturday night’s Peacefest at San Diego Comic-Con, James Gunn took to the stage to break the news, calling it a song “from my favorite band in the world that is objectivel

The 2025 Audi RS 3 is a five-cylinder firecracker

First offered in a passenger car by Mercedes-Benz back in 1974, the five-cylinder engine has always been a bit of an automotive oddball. The unconventional configuration eventually gained a foothold in the 1980s with manufacturers who needed a transversely mounted motor that was narrower than a V6 but wanted something smoother and more powerful than an inline-four. For a time, the engine, with its distinctive exhaust warble, became closely associated with Audi’s lineup, aided in no small part b

Google’s Pixel Watch 4 might charge on its side

The watch may also get a roughly 25 percent improvement in charging speed over the Pixel Watch 3. Without charging contacts on the back, the Pixel Watch 4 will now have a “new array of sensors,” Android Headlines says. Th

Off with Their Heads: Illustrations of Blemmyes (ca. 1175–1724)

No matter that a headless tribe of people never existed, their inclusion in ancient histories made them popular fodder for later bestiary and travelogue traditions. Beginning with their appearance in the late-tenth century Marvels of the East, the Blemmyes often look just as confused as we are — staring out at the viewer, as if trying to understand where, exactly, their neck went wrong. In these illustrations, Blemmyes frequently keep equally strange bedfellows. The thirteenth-century Rutland Ps

Trump Says He Has a Buyer for TikTok

President Donald Trump says he has a buyer for TikTok. In an interview with on Fox News' Sunday Morning Futures with Maria Bartiromo that aired this past Sunday, Trump said that the deal will probably need Chinese government approval, but he thinks that China's President Xi Jinping "will probably do it." Trump didn't reveal who the buyer is, only that it's a group of "very, very wealthy people," adding that he plans to make an announcement in about two weeks. The comments come about a little
