This week’s Peacemaker episode ended with a twist fans have been calling for weeks, and now it’s affecting the show’s Fortnite presence. At the end of Thursday’s “Ignorance is Chris,” the 11th Street Kids go to find Chris in the alternate universe he’s been hanging around in. Turns out it’s the Nazi dimension, made clear by Adebayo getting chased down by white people and the swastika in place of the 50 stars on the American flag.

LG’s $1,800 TV for seniors makes misguided assumptions

LG is looking to create a new market: TVs for senior citizens. However, I can't help thinking that the answer for a TV that truly prioritizes the needs of older people is much simpler—and cheaper.

Android Remote Lock stops letting anyone who knows your number lock your phone

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-10-05 03:43:58

Hadlee Simons / Android Authority TL;DR Remote Lock lets you remotely secure a lost or stolen phone. So far, all you’ve needed to activate it was your phone number — so anyone who knew it could potentially lock your phone. That’s now slightly more secure with the addition of an optional security question. Google offers plenty of automatic ways to try and limit your exposure when someone takes off with your smartphone.

Samsung S95F QD-OLED Review: The Best Looking TV Screen of 2025

wired.com Parker Hall 2025-11-23 22:06:00

As a Samsung phone user of more than a decade, I still mostly hate using Samsung TVs. The stupid interface is annoying and hard to navigate, the apps are not that great, and I often stumble into some random section or other when I’m looking for something basic, like an input button, on the remote. The screen on Samsung’s flagship S95F QD-OLED is so utterly gorgeous that none of this matters.

A Viral Cybertruck Hoax Got So Big, Tesla Had to Break Its Silence

Elon Musk has always wanted the Cybertruck to be the vehicle everyone talks about. After a bizarre video went viral over the weekend, he got his wish, just not in the way he intended. The rumor grew so outlandish and spread so far that Tesla, a company that famously doesn’t have a public relations department, was forced to do something it rarely does: publicly deny it.
