As disclosed by the Washington Post this morning, Facebook has been ranking users on their trustworthiness in identifying false information—though in a statement to Gizmodo, the platform distanced itself from implications that trust rank is broadly applicable to all facets of the network.
The original Honda Insight landed in the United States in December 1999. The tiny aerodynamic hatchback didn’t light the electrified vehicle world on fire like the far more popular Toyota Prius. But it did show that the automaker was serious about hy…

The Mosaic Manufacturing Palette 2 – an upgrade the original Palette – is a self-contained system for full color 3D printing. It works by cutting and splicing multiple filament colors and then feeding them through as the object is printed. The system uses a unique and internal cutter called the Splice Core that measures and cuts filament as it prints, ensuring the incoming filament can change colors quickly and easily.
The printer can out items in four colors and it can print any amount of any color. It extrudes excess color into a little object called a tower, allowing it to print as much or as little of a color as necessary. It also has automatic runout detection which lets you print larger objects over a longer period.
It works with a number of current 3D printers and the printers require no real updates to use the Palette or its more robust brother, the Pro. A new piece of software called Canvas allows users to plan their color prints and send the instructions to both the Palette and the printer for printing.
The Palette 2 costs $449 while the Pro costs $699. The Pro lets you print faster than the Palette 2.
It’s a very clever hack – instead of making the printer do all the work you instead make the filament do the work. Because it is a self-contained system you can use the Palette with nearly any printer although the team is working on native support for many popular printers. They are able to print lots of interesting stuff including 3D printed phone case models, rubbery watch bands using stretchable materials, and even educational objects. Most impressive? They were able to print a scan of a brain with evidence of a tumor visible in yellow. While it’s not completely full color – yet – the Palette is a great solution for those looking to print color on a budget.
LG has begun rolling out Android updates to some of its more recent flagship phones, but don’t expect a taste of Android 9 Pie to come of it.

A new study suggests that life on Earth is far older than science once suspected. The scientific world’s been relying on the oldest known fossils to date the start of life on this planet – they’ve been doing this for ages. This sort of science works, but because its source material changes, it’s not entirely accurate. A study published this … Continue reading
Shenmue III, the much-awaited crowdfunded title, was originally due to be released in December last year but that didn’t happen. Multiple delays have pushed back the title’s release considerably but the developers have now confirmed when this title will finally be available. Shenmue III is going to be released next year.
It has been a long time since the first two games in this series were launched and fans have been patiently waiting for the third installment to arrive. Whether or not Shenmue III will be able to live up to expectations remains to be seen.
Ys Net, the developers of this title, have confirmed that Shenmue III is going to be released on August 27th, 2019. It has only confirmed the release date at this point in time and hasn’t revealed any additional information about the title’s story.

The ROG Phone is aimed at serious mobile gamers. It ships with an overclocked Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 and 8GB of RAM. The handset has a price tag to match but it appears that the company might have developed a slightly more affordable version of the handset. Chinese regulatory agency TENAA has revealed that there are two versions of the ROG Phone with 4GB and 6GB of RAM.
Just how much the company will be able to trim the price tag remains to be seen because this model retains the 2.95GHz processor. The design appears to be similar as well. The TENAA listing also mentions a single 12 megapixel camera at the back instead of the ROG Phone’s 12 + 8 megapixel dual camera system.
The current ROG Phone has a 4,000mAh battery but this particular model is listed with a 3,850mAh cell. It’s not uncommon for such listings to have inconsistencies so we may not be getting the full picture here with regards to this model of the ROG Phone.
ASUS hasn’t said if it’s planning to introduce a version of the ROG Phone with less RAM. There’s no saying how much of a discount a lower RAM variant of the device will offer compared to the €1,000 price of the existing handset.
