Games Workshop Removes Gendered Language From ‘Horus Heresy’ Rulebooks

Games Workshop’s ongoing, fraught relationship with conservative elements of its Warhammer fanbase has led to increasing flashpoints whenever the miniatures maker has attempted to diversify the worldbuilding of its beloved tabletop game. But one lingering back-and-forth among fans simmering long before Games Workshop found itself in the crossfires of the culture war has been brought into light again thanks to the latest edition of one of its games: whether or not a female Space Marine could exis

Is the doc bot docs, or not?

July 8, 2025 Upgrading my Shopify email noti­fi­ca­tion templates this morning, I asked Shopify’s LLM-powered devel­oper doc­u­men­ta­tion bot this ques­tion: What’s the syntax, in Liquid, to detect whether an order in an email noti­fi­ca­tion con­tains items that will be ful­filled through Shopify Collective? I’d done a few tra­di­tional searches, but couldn’t find an answer, so I thought, okay, let’s try the doc bot! The reply came, quick and clean: {% if order.tags contains 'Shopify Coll

GenAI as a shopping assistant set to explode during Prime Day sales

A new report estimates that AI will be a larger-than-ever part of the online shopping process during Amazon’s Prime Day sale, which began Tuesday morning. Amazon’s annual sale, which this year spans four days (July 8-11), is predicted to drive $23.8 billion in online spending across U.S. e-commerce retailers, as other businesses run their own competing sales alongside the popular shopping event. Adobe, whose e-commerce division regularly releases estimates for online shopping events like Black

Bookshop.org mocks Jeff Bezos wedding invite in anti-Prime Day promo

The independent online bookseller Bookshop.org took a swipe at Amazon to celebrate the start of Prime Day, Amazon’s annual sale (which, despite its name, is actually four days this year). Like many other retailers, Bookshop.org holds a sale to coincide with Amazon’s big event — it’s a way to lure away consumers who may be tempted by Amazon’s deals, but could be convinced to spend a few extra dollars to support an independent business. These anti-Prime sales probably don’t make a huge dent in Am

Everything You Can Do in the Photoshop Mobile App

You know your software is a success when its name becomes a verb: You'll now commonly hear about images being photoshopped, even if the editing wasn't done with the Adobe image editor. Adobe might not like it, but the usage shows how dominant its flagship product has become. On mobile though, Photoshop hasn't achieved the same kind of ubiquity or brand recognition. We've had official Photoshop apps of various types down the years, but none of them have really translated the power and feature se

Amazon Prime Day starts on Tuesday: Here's everything to know

Amazon confirmed in a June press release that its annual Prime Day event will return Tuesday, July 8, through Friday, July 11. For the first time ever, Prime Day will be a four-day extravaganza two days longer than last year, confirming early rumors that swirled back in March. Now, the event is just a few days away. Also: Amazon extends July Prime Day and confirms 2025 dates In June, the retailer also unveiled early offers for Prime members, like savings on exclusive Amazon products and device

TikTok lays off more employees working on TikTok Shop US

In Brief Despite all of the ads you’re getting for collagen supplements and electric scrub brushes, TikTok Shop US is apparently not doing so hot. Per a report from Bloomberg, TikTok has conducted its third round of layoffs for this team since April, but has not disclosed how many jobs were impacted. TikTok Shop US, the company’s e-commerce retailer, launched less than two years ago, selling a variety of products and offering creators commissions for their videos that trigger sales. While Shop

I Took Photoshop's Generative AI for a Spin. These Are the Tools That Stuck Out

Photoshop is all in on generative AI, and it wants you to give it a whirl, too. Adobe has added a number of AI features to its premiere photo editor over the past few years; if you use Photoshop regularly, you've probably seen these pop up on your task bars. I spend a lot of time reviewing AI image generators and other AI creative software, so I had to put the original photo editor's AI to the test. AI might not be right for every project, especially for professional creators who regularly use

The best Apple deals you can shop ahead of Amazon Prime Day

If you want to get a head start on back-to-school shopping — or upgrade your Apple gear — there are already some great deals worth exploring ahead of Amazon Prime Day. From earbuds and laptops to tablets, the early deals are already starting to trickle in. Prices might drop even further during Amazon’s four-day sales event, sure, but gadgets like the latest AirPods and iPad Air are already matching their all-time low, giving you a solid chance to save before the four-day shopping event officiall

YouTube launches new Shopping product stickers for Shorts

YouTube is updating the Shopping experience for Shorts, the company announced on Wednesday. The platform is launching new Shopping product stickers to make it easy for viewers to know that the products being used in the Short are shoppable. The new stickers could be a way for creators to increase their earnings. During its testing last month, YouTube found that Shorts with Shopping product stickers saw over 40% more clicks on products than Shorts with the Shopping button, it said. Previously,

After Shopify bought his last startup, Birk Jernström wants to help developers build one-person unicorns

Sam Altman and “his tech CEO friends” have a betting pool on the year we will see the first one-person billion-dollar company. The idea of a single person reaching a billion-dollar valuation for a startup would have been unthinkable without AI. But single-person, AI-first businesses have been sprouting all over the tech industry and Birk Jernström, CEO of Polar, a “monetization platform to empower one-person unicorns,” is standing by to help them get there. Polar hopes to stand out from other

Instead of Making Prime Day Better, Amazon Is Making It Longer

Amazon’s Prime Day is effectively becoming “Prime Week,” and consumers online will soon be plagued with enough “hot deals” to exhaust even the sturdiest Black Friday veteran. Instead of hosting a two-day sales extravaganza, Amazon is pushing the total days to four while promising an avalanche of timed deals exclusive to those who pony up for a Prime membership. As far as making its annual shopping holiday any more pro-consumer, that already seems to be far less important than taking over e-comme

Games Workshop Just Can’t Stop ‘Horus Heresy’ Scalpers

It’s become an unfortunate par for the course in modern collecting that if you want something, you’re no longer just racing against fellow fans who want it: you’re facing off against a bot army driven by scalpers who want to make a pretty profit on the aftermarket. From trading cards to action figures, from sneakers to event tickets, bots are everywhere… including the grim dark future of Warhammer. This week Games Workshop announced plans to launch pre-orders for a bonus “final” entry in its lo

The BBC Radiophonic Workshop's archive is now available to sample

Attention audiophiles: the archive of the BBC Radiophonic Workshop is being made available to the public for the first name. This department was founded in the 1950s as a laboratory that could invent original music and sound effects for BBC radio, and later television, programming. Over the years, its roster of innovative musicians and composers created audio for iconic BBC productions of the 1950s and 1960s such as Doctor Who, Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, the Goon Show and Blake's 7.
