The new take on Flappy Bird will include alternate game modes. | Screenshot: The Flappy Bird Foundation Last week, The Flappy Bird Foundation announced a game called Flappy Bird. But while the group has been framing it as the triumphant return of a classic mobile game, Flappy Bird’s original developer, Dong Nguyen isn’t calling it a comeback — in fact, he says he’s not involved at all. Nguyen posted as much on X (for the first time since 2017!) this morning, saying he didn’t “sell anything.” The Flappy Bird Foundation wrote in the announcement it shared with press last week that it had “acquired the rights from Gametech Holdings, LLC,” which had secured the trademark from Nguyen, but it doesn’t appear as though that was the result of any dealings between him and the group. No, I have no related with their game. I did not sell anything. I... Continue reading…

During the WWDC 2024 keynote, Apple introduced a single Watch Face exclusive to watchOS 11. However, after the announcement of the Apple Watch Series 10, the company unveiled two more faces for users, which are available with the Release Candidate version of watchOS 11. Here's everything you need to know about them. Photos Face: Over the years, Apple has offered different takes on the Photos Face. This time, it says you can cycle through your chosen photos or a synced album as watch faces. These photos can be of specific people, places, pets, and cities from the photo library, and a new photo appears every time you raise your wrist or tap the display. You can choose from three different styles and select up to 24 photos. watchOS 11 Photos Face Image source: José Adorno for BGR Reflections: Referencing the materials used to make the Apple Watch, this face features a metallic sunburst dial that reflects light in response to the movement of your wrist. Reflections are available in a range of colors and feature four customizable complications. Flux: Flux combines typography with color and movement to show the passing of time. Color fills the face from the bottom as seconds count up, and the numerals snap into new forms when the minute changes. Both the colors and numerals are consistently in flux. Flux Watch Face is my favorite watchOS 11 option Editing the FlFluxatchOS 11 Watch Face. Image source: José Adorno for BGR After trying the Photos Face throughout the beta testing of watchOS 11, I was happy to see Apple adding two other options. While I can see why many people enjoy the Photos Face, I don't think they are for me. However, seeing how they mix with time is interesting. The Flux Watch Face is the most enjoyable, especially with several colors and three different numeral options. The face also changes how the time is displayed depending on the hour. It also looks good on Apple Watch Ultra. watchOS 11 Reflections Watch Face Image source: José Adorno for BGR Another great option is the Reflections Watch Face. At first, I thought it would look cooler on regular Apple Watch models. However, I think the Jet Black option looks great on the Apple Watch Ultra. Nonetheless, it's nice to see how the different materials reflect while I move my wrist to see the time. A more condensed version of this face is also possible with a few complications.

Archaeologists in Chełm, Poland, have uncovered two children's skeletal remains, one of which exhibits signs of an anti-vampire burial, dating back to the 13th century. The discovery was made during ground repairs in the former Unica bishop's gardens on Góra Chełmska, an area not previously known for burials, adding to the intrigue of the find. The most striking burial featured a decapitated skeleton, with the skull placed face-down on the body and held down by a stone—a known practice used to prevent the dead from rising as malevolent spirits. According to lead archaeologist Dr. Stanisława Gołuba, these burial methods reflect medieval superstitions and fears of the undead. Evidence of two poles, possibly used to further restrain the body, was also found at the site.
