Apple’s AirPods are an excellent option for iPhone owners looking for noise-canceling earbuds. | Photo by Chris Welch / The Verge Black Friday might technically be a 24-hour event, but in reality, it’s more like a month-long affair. That’s because many retailers have already begun their sales, including Best Buy, which is dropping impressive deals ahead of its early sales event tomorrow. Today only, for example, Best Buy is offering the second-gen AirPods Pro with a USB-C for $169.99 ($80 off), which is just $1 shy of their lowest price to date. Walmart is also matching Best Buy’s pricing, though the latter retailer won’t begin offering Black Friday deals until November 11th. The current promo drops Apple’s highest-end earbuds to roughly the same price as the open-style AirPods 4 with ANC, which are currently on sale for $168.99 ($11 off). That being said, Apple’s...

Discovery CEO David Zaslav thinks putting Donald Trump back in the White House could offer a friendlier environment for major media mergers. “We have an upcoming new administration,” Zaslav said during an earnings call on Thursday. “It’s too early to tell, but it may offer a pace of change and an opportunity for consolidation that may be quite different.” Zaslav made the statement in response to a question about streaming partnerships, saying changes under the Trump administration could have “a real positive and accelerated impact” on the entertainment industry. With more competition than ever in streaming, it’s getting harder for services to get a viewer’s undivided attention. “This is an industry that really needs to... Continue reading…

The reason I'm so excited about genAI products like ChatGPT, Gemini, Meta AI, and Siri becoming personal assistants in the not-too-distant future is for one particular use case. I like genAI's ability to answer all sorts of questions, even though I know it can hallucinate information. I'm also a fan of what OpenAI has achieved with Advanced Voice Mode. But my end goal is to be able to control all my devices with my voice. I want powerful, capable AI that understands my intentions when using my Mac and iPhone. I want it to understand complex commands, such as instructing it via voice to open certain apps, browse certain sites, perform searches in different tabs, take notes, download or play content, and even make purchases on my behalf. I can't wait to start using AI like that. But there's no way I'm going to use an AI agent like Google's leaked Jarvis AI anytime soon, if ever. Continue reading...

Warner Bros. Discovery CEO David Zaslav said a Trump administration might bring "a real positive and accelerated impact on this industry that's needed," specifically deregulation, the Hollywood Reporter reported.

The Federal Reserve cut its key interest rate Thursday by a quarter-point in response to the steady decline in the once-high inflation that had angered Americans and helped drive Donald Trump's presidential election victory this week.

Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, and Rep. Andy Biggs, R-Ariz., on Thursday slammed the FBI for quietly revising 2022 federal crime data that showed violent offenses rose rather than dropped, reported the New York Post.

A scathing new report points to unclear protocols and multiple failures to raise alarms at the Arecibo Observatory in Puerto Rico before the collapse of the site's radio telescope in 2020.

Quincy Jones worked with nearly every star, including Michael Jackson, Aretha Franklin, Frank Sinatra, and Miles Davis. However, he was glad to have skipped this one person—Elvis Presley. Quincy, who died days ago at 91, was considered the late king of Rock ‘n’ Roll racist and was vocal about this. Sources have also backed up this claim in the past since an incident in Boston in 1957, where he allegedly made racist comments while filming “Jailhouse Rock’s” music video. He denied the allegation, saying those who know him well would never agree to such utterances. Why Quincy Jones thought Elvis Presley was racist Quincy Jones/Everett Quincy narrated an encounter with Elvis from when he was writing for Tommy Dorsey. Elvis walked into the studio, and Tommy refused to play with him because he was racist. Tommy had worked with Elvis via the Dorsey Brothers Stage Show, which may have been the origin of their feud. Quincy never had a direct experience to prove Tommy’s accusations, but he recalled seeing Otis Blackwell coaching Elvis to sing on many occasions. Otis was the star behind Elvis’ biggest hits and his signature mannerisms, and he had to give up his writing credits for the singer. Elvis Presley/Everett Quincy Jones called out racism in the industry Quincy did not shy away from the topic of racism while he was alive, as it was a big problem in the music industry. He once narrated hearing some guys hurl racist slurs at him in Yiddish while he walked down the hall at Universal Studios. Quincy Jones/Everett He also met a producer at the studio to discuss Gregory Peck’s Mirage, and his host turned to music supervisor Joe Gershenson in shock, saying he did not know Quincy was a “negro.” The late legend was a supporter of the Black Lives Matter movement, which started in 2013 but became popular after the 2021 protests.
