It’s better if we just get this out of the way now: Yes, Solar Opposites is an extremely Justin Roiland joint, but to call it a Rick and Morty knockoff is to miss the point of the show, which is to dunk specifically on humanity, rather than existence as a whole. See? They’re different. Ish.

Last week, it was reported that SteelSeries could have a new MFi gaming controller in the works called the Nimbus+. Sure enough, the rumors were true as the company has since officially announced the new gaming accessory. While it is maintaining the Nimbus branding, clearly there are some improvements made over its predecessor.
According to SteelSeries, “Designed specifically for gaming on Apple devices, the Nimbus+ brings console-quality game controls to iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, Mac, and Apple TV. With an ergonomic design, ultra-responsive triggers and buttons, and a range of Apple connectivity options, Nimbus+ is the best solution to help bring gaming on Apple devices to the next level.”
Some of the new features of the Nimbus+ includes clickable joysticks, Hall effect triggers, and also improved battery life over the previous model where according to the company, the Nimbus+ should be capable of squeezing out 50 hours of game time before it needs to be recharged (although your mileage may vary).
As for pricing, the SteelSeries Nimbus+ will set you back $70, making it one of the more expensive gaming controllers you can find for iOS devices. However, SteelSeries does have a good reputation amongst gamers and with its MFi certification, you can rest assured knowing it will be compatible with Apple’s devices.

Until a vaccine for the coronavirus has been found, social distancing is expected to be the new norm. This is because there could be people out there who are asymptomatic and aren’t displaying signs of being infected, which makes it dangerous as it could result in them spreading the virus to others unknowingly.
There is no doubt that social distancing will be a huge thing for the foreseeable future, but how will it affect transportation, especially in confined spaces like an airplane? According French aeronautical engineer, Florian Barjot, he has put together some concept images and drawings as to how social distancing could work in such a situation.
As you can see in his drawing, Barjot imagines that there could be a plastic divider placed in the middle of seats. This would essentially kill off the middle seat while keeping passengers at a distance from each other. While it might be shorter than the recommended distance of 6 feet, we suppose this will just have to do.
Also, based on Barjot’s design, airline companies won’t have to make any major changes as these can be retrofitted. Of course, whether or not airline companies will adopt this particular design remains to be seen, especially since killing off a seat means one less passenger and less revenue.

If the rumors are to be believed, Apple could be exploring the idea of creating a foldable phone. Exactly how this device will materialize is anyone’s guess, but in the meantime, YouTube channel iOS Beta News has cooked up a concept video that shows what the iPhone could look like with a foldable design.
Instead of a foldable design where the phone becomes a tablet and back into a phone again, the video shows what the iPhone could look like if Apple adopted a design similar to the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip. We have to say that it looks amazing, although the hinge part of the phone doesn’t feel quite Apple-like.
However, the front of the phone where the main display is looks fantastic and looks like a taller/longer iPhone. This gives the phone slightly more screen real estate, especially if used horizontally to watch movies, surf the web, or while playing games. The concept has also added a small secondary display on the front where it can even display information from the wearer’s Apple Watch.
Presumably it could be customized to add other more useful widgets depending on the user’s needs. That being said, we should remind you that this is merely a concept, not a leak, not a rumor, so just admire it for what it is right now.

A team of researchers has published a new paper that suggests any stable liquids on the surface of Mars today wouldn’t be suitable environments for … Continue reading
