We know for a fact that Roland Emmerich’s latest sci-fi disaster movie will be loud and dumb, as per the director’s oeuvre. But will it be fun? This newest Moonfall trailer suggests that maybe—just maybe—it might be, and if so, it’s all going to be because of John Bradley.
From Lindsay Graham to Ron DeSantis, Republicans complained that Democrats made a political issue out of Trump supporters attacking Congress one year ago.

This was proven by Everdrone, a Swedish company that develops drone-related tech with a strong focus on making autonomous drones useful within the emergency response and healthcare fields. In December 2021, an Everdrone device became the first … Continue reading
LinkedIn has been working on a Clubhouse-style live audio room feature since at least last March. It’s now set to roll that out this month as part of a new events platform.
The plan is to let organizers host virtual round tables, fireside chats and other kinds of discussions as they see fit, LinkedIn told TechCrunch. Hosts will be able to moderate discussions, while attendees will be able to speak with each other during events and afterward. Events will run on in-house tools that LinkedIn has built.
At the outset, LinkedIn is hoping members of its creator community (those who develop and share content on topics like career development) will host events. Around 1.5 million creators are already using LinkedIn’s live video streaming feature, according to the company. Down the line, LinkedIn is aiming to get larger organizations involved in running events.
A video version of the feature will be available in the spring. Organizers ostensibly won’t be able to charge for access for the time being, as LinkedIn doesn’t currently have plans for ticketed events.
Clubhouse exploded in popularity when it debuted during the onset on the COVID-19 pandemic and people who were stuck at home were looking for ways to connect with each other remotely (the invite-only approach created an air of exclusivity too). Other major tech companies created their own versions of live audio rooms, including Facebook, Twitter and Discord. LinkedIn might be slightly late to the party, but its take on the format might prove a success in the long run, with many of its users eager to learn from those who are willing to share their knowledge, experience and insights.
The European Space Agency has released a video of the Webb Space Telescope separating from the rocket that launched it from Earth. The video may be the last view we’ll have of the $10 billion telescope, which is currently heading for a destination 1 million miles away.
The retired congressman also ruled out a run for U.S. Senate, but says he hasn’t ruled out going back into politics in the future.

The new range is headed up by the Archer AXE200 Omni which distinguishes itself with smart antennas that use a robotic mechanism to auto-adapt their orientation for the best signal. Users can use the TP-LINK app to also manually adjust the direction of the antennas so they … Continue reading
It seems The Athletic, which quickly came to prominence for publishing exclusive reporting and high-quality sports journalism, is getting a new owner. According to The Information and Bloomberg, The New York Times has agreed to buy the subscription-based digital media company for $550 million.
The Times has set a goal of reaching 10 million subscribers by 2025 and it’s well on the way. It had 8.3 million subscribers as of September 30th. Along with its digital and print publications, the Times has separate plans for its cooking and games (which includes crosswords) products. It bolstered its offerings in recent years by acquiring Wirecutter and placing the popular product review site behind a paywall.
It’s not yet clear whether The Athletic will be rolled into the standard Times subscription or if it will remain a standalone product. The company previously said it didn’t expect to turn a profit until next year. The Athletic had 1.2 million subscribers as of November, though its growth was reportedly slowing by that point. The Times held talks with the company last summer about a deal, according to reports, but it backed out before returning to the negotiating table last month.
The Athletic has a roster of talented, big-name sportswriters, many of whom it poached from publications across North America and the UK by offering competitive salaries. Back in 2017, co-founder Alex Mather told The Times (oddly enough) that his company “will wait every local paper out and let them continuously bleed until we are the last ones standing” and “suck them dry of their best talent at every moment.” Mather later apologized for those remarks.
Researchers were able to identify 74 species of animals by looking for DNA in air samples collected at two zoos. The experiment shows that free-floating DNA could be used to track wild animals, including endangered or invasive species, without needing to observe them directly.
Later this year, it’ll have been a decade since Arrow hit The CW, establishing the first elements of a whole DC universe on the small screen that would change the face of superheroic TV as we know it. Now its transformation might reach an altogether different end, as the broadcast network that played home to Arrow, …
