The new trailer has just been released for the season 4 premiere of the hit vampire mockumentary comedy, What We Do In The Shadows, and it promises a season that’s sillier and more absurd than ever. Based on the film by Taika Waititi and Jermaine Clement, and adapted for American television by Clement, the show has…
The company that built a 1.7-mile long, one-lane, 35mph car tunnel underneath the Las Vegas convention center and called it transportation innovation is making new moves in Texas.
Meta wants to create its own digital landscape called “the metaverse,” and the company reportedly no longer has the patience or funding for the U.S.’ political struggles. Two separate reports claim the company is no longer putting its money toward derailing election misinformation and the U.S. 250th anniversary.
Because most people’s cats live better lives than I do, do-it-yourselfer Whitney Fabre constructed the CAT-CAT, an AT-AT-inspired cat condo. She built the condo for her feline friend, Captain Jack Harkness, who was named after the Doctor Who character. Why she didn’t build a TARDIS cat house instead is anybody’s guess.
For those of you interesting in building your own CAT-CAT, Whitney was kind enough to create an Instructable, so you can follow the directions and, provided you have the skills and supplies, wind up with something similar and not just a dangerous pile of wood scrap and nails like I did. But you know what they say: The best-laid plans of mice and men often go awry. And the worst-laid plans like mine almost always go awry.
There’s no question it’s a fine-looking cat condo. But even if I was able to successfully construct one, would my cat play in it or purposefully ignore it to spite me for all the time and effort I put into building it? Here, let me give you a hint: We named him Spiteful Bill for a reason.

No Man’s Sky will make its long-awaited arrival on Nintendo Switch on October 7th. The Switch version was previously announced for this summer, so that marks a delay of at least a couple of weeks.
The sandbox survival title landed on PC and PlayStation 4 in 2016 and Xbox One two years later, so its Switch debut has been a long time coming. From the jump, Switch players will have access to all of the features and upgrades Hello Games has brought to No Man’s Sky since its rocky launch. The game’s in a much healthier place than it was at the outset.
Some players might have reservations about how well No Man’s Sky will run on the Switch’s aging hardware. Hello Games tried to placate concerns with a video that shows the game running fairly well on the console, though it remains to be seen what Switch performance will actually be like.
There will be physical and digital editions of No Man’s Sky available for Switch on October 7th. On the same day, fans will be able to purchase a physical version for PS5 for the first time. No Man’s Sky is also slated to arrive on Mac and iPad later this year.
The cast of the Hunger Games prequel continues to grow. Go behind the scenes and learn very little at all in Nope’s latest cryptic featurette. Disney’s Percy Jackson series finds a few more young heroes. Plus, what’s coming on The Flash and Superman & Lois. To me, my spoilers!

If you’re looking to upgrade to a speedy, compact desktop, Apple’s Mac Mini M1 is a good option. The machine is back on sale at Amazon right now for $570 thanks to a coupon that knocks $99 off its price. That’s the lowest price we’ve seen on the desktop that runs on Apple’s M1 chipset, 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage.

Yes, we’re on M2 machines at this point, but only a couple of Apple computers run on that updated processor (and only the M2 MacBook Pro is even available right now). The Mac Mini M1 remains the most affordable way to get an M1 device in your home, too, as the latest iPad Pros that share the same processor start at around $799. The desktop is powered by an eight-core CPU and eight-core GPU, plus a 16-core Neural Engine. While we haven’t given the Mini M1 the full review treatment, you can expect it to run similarly to the MacBook Air M1, which is speedily and efficiently.
While the Mac Mini M1’s design isn’t anything to write home about, that almost works to its advantage. Apple didn’t change much from the Intel version, keeping the machine a sleek, square box interrupted only by a couple of ports: two Thunderbolt ports, two USB-A connectors, an Ethernet port, one HDMI port and a headphone jack.
The biggest issue we have with the desktop is its lack of upgradeability — its RAM and storage are soldered in place, so you’re stuck with the amount that you initially purchase. RAM is arguably more crucial than storage here, since you can always connect an external SSD to the Mini M1 if you need to offload important files. If those limitations don’t bother you, the Mac Mini M1 could be a great replacement for your aging desktop.
