Tesla is the biggest name in the EV market, but there’s no guarantee it’ll stay that way. Volkswagen has big plans to take on its competitor.
“What Sophia did that night was not something anyone would just do,” the Fairhaven Police Department wrote in a statement.
Apple is moving forward with a second season of its critically-acclaimed adaption of Min Jin Lee’s best-selling novel Pachinko. The company announced the renewal shortly before the show’s season one finale premiered this past Friday on Apple TV+.
Published in 2017, Lee’s multi-generational tale won accolades for its portrayal of a Korean family that immigrates to Japan before the outbreak of the Second World War. What’s striking about both the novel and Apple’s drama series is how they effortlessly weave history and the deeply personal stories of their characters together. From Japanese colonialism in Korea to the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, and later Japan’s economic boom in the 1980s, history has a profound effect on Pachinko’s characters and yet the story always feels intimate.
Friday’s season one finale pulled from a scene that occurs about a third through Lee’s approximately 500-page novel, so there’s plenty of story left for Apple’s TV+ series to adapt. The company didn’t say when season two will begin filming or when it plans to stream the new episodes. All of that just means you have time to catch up on Pachinko if you’ve been sleeping on it.
The conservative Democrat appeared in an ad for Rep. David McKinley, who is facing Trump-endorsed Rep. Alex Mooney in a GOP primary.
If you’re in the market for a new car, you can potentially get a great deal on an EV when it comes to tax credits, rebates, and state incentives.
For the first time since February, Amazon has discounted the Echo Show 8 to $90. That’s a $40 saving over the smart display’s usual $130 price. We gave the second-generation model a score of 87 when Amazon released it midway through last year. We liked the Echo Show 8’s vibrant 1,280 by 800 resolution display and handy video calling functionality. It comes with a digital pan-and-zoom face-tracking feature that follows you while you move around. Best of all, that feature works with every video chat platform available for the device, including Skype and Zoom.

In addition to discounting the Echo Show 8, Amazon has also put the Echo Show 15 on sale. At the moment, you can buy the device for $200, down from $250. The Show 15 is the most niche option in Amazon’s smart display lineup. While you can place it on a desktop stand, Amazon sells that accessory separately. You’ll get the most use out of the Show 15 by mounting it on a wall in your home.
Outside of a device like Meta’s Portal Plus, there aren’t many smart displays that feature a screen as big as the one found on the Show 15. It’s bright, and the picture frame design does a lot to enhance its best qualities. But don’t buy the Show 15 for its video calling capabilities. At best, we found they were average. Also, don’t expect a great speaker. It’s okay for playing music while you’re cooking, but you won’t be entertaining guests with the Show 15.
