Add StarCraft II to the list of increasingly sophisticated games at which well-trained AIs can smash fallible, meat-fingered humans to chunky bits. Google’s DeepMind AI beat two professional players of Blizzard’s StarCraft in two multi-game series that happened in December, the companies jointly announced today.
Several years ago, Facebook launched an app called Moments. The app was designed to be a private photo sharing platform where users could upload and share photos with people that they wanted to, versus their Facebook profiles which are sometimes visible to the public. Unfortunately it seems that the app has come to an end.
In a statement made to CNET, director of product management for Moments, Rushabh Doshi, confirmed that the app would be killed off and that the service would be shutting down. “We’re ending support for the Moments app, which we originally launched as a place for people to save their photo. We know the photos people share are important to them so we will continue offering ways to save memories within the Facebook app.”
Presumably this is due to the lack of usage of the app, which shouldn’t be too surprising since we’re not sure if the app was ever necessary to begin with. In more recent times with the Facebook privacy scandals, it feels like there are now even less reasons to use such an app. Users who want to export their photos that they’ve uploaded to Moments will be able to do so by heading to a special website that Facebook has setup for this purpose.

It’s 2019, and ordinary beer bongs just won’t cut it. Gravity just doesn’t deliver beer fast enough for some people. That’s why we now have the Q-bong pressurized beer bong, a device designed to shoot beer down the throat of its recipient faster than ever.
All you have to do is fill the reservoir with up to 32-ounces of beer, pump the air bulb to your desired beer-pressure, press the trigger valve and get to chugging. Isn’t college fun? Now it’s a little less fun because it’s so convenient to chug all by yourself with no one helping.
Is it called the Q-Bong because some guy in British intelligence who invents gadgets for a living came up with this? I have no idea, but I can tell you that the guy in the video looks like Ryan Reynolds demonstrating this device. And just as I thought, he doesn’t look like he’s having a lot of fun chugging from this thing. Calling it now, this thing kills parties dead. Oh look, there’s so and so over there chugging by himself in the corner from what is essentially a juice box of beer. No one likes that guy.
I like how the video also cuts off right before he chugs. Because he can’t. Because he’s clearly too old for college.

It wasn’t too long ago that Google launched its third-gen Pixel phones. In fact, we might still be waiting for a Pixel 3 Lite, if that truly exists. That doesn’t mean, however, that Google isn’t already working on what would be the Pixel 4 later this year. That does seem to be the implication in this extremely early sighting of … Continue reading
