Illustration by Alex Castro / The Verge Netflix will delist just about all of its interactive shows and films as of December 1st, the company confirms to The Verge. Netflix’s “Interactive Specials” page lists 24 titles, but only four will remain: Black Mirror: Bandersnatch, Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt: Kimmy vs. the Reverend, Ranveer vs. Wild with Bear Grylls, and You vs. Wild. The removal of the titles marks a disappointing conclusion to Netflix’s earliest efforts into interactive content. The company first launched the interactive titles in 2017 with Puss in Book: Trapped in an Epic Tale, and I remember being wowed (and horrified) by paths in Black Mirror: Bandersnatch. In addition to specials based on franchises like Carmen Sandiego and Boss Baby, Netflix also tried ideas... Continue reading…

To continue complying with Europe's Digital Markets Act, Apple has revealed when EU users will be able to change more of the default apps to third-party options. This will give users greater control over their preferred choices with their iPhones. According to a document spotted by MacRumors, Apple says that by spring 2025, it will add support for "setting defaults for navigation apps and translation," which means EU iPhone owners will be able to choose Google Maps and Google Translator (among others, of course) as their main navigation and translation apps. If Apple follows the schedule, these changes may be available with iOS 18.4, which is expected to be released in April. This will likely be the most important change update during the iOS 18 cycle. As previously reported, Apple plans to expand Apple Intelligence to more countries and regions in April. This is when the platform will be compatible with Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Korean, and many other languages. In addition, this is when Apple Intelligence will finally be available for EU iPhone users. Currently, Apple Intelligence is only available in macOS Sequoia for the region, as the DMA does not consider the Mac a gatekeeping platform. While iOS 18.4 is still several months away from being released, Apple is committing to other changes for EU iPhone models. For example, iOS 18.2 is expected to add a new Default Apps section in Settings where users can manage their default apps. While EU iPhone users can choose their default browser, mail, app marketplace, and contactless apps, iOS 18.2 will let them choose the default apps for phone calls, messaging, password managers, keyboards, and call spam filters. iOS 18.2 is expected to be released in early December. This software update will expand Apple Intelligence features for non-EU users with Genmoji, Image Playground, Image Wand, and Visual Intelligence for iPhone 16 users. BGR will let you know once these features roll out for iPhone users.

In an important discovery, archaeologists from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem and the National Academy of Sciences of Tajikistan have uncovered a multi-layered archaeological site in the Zeravshan Valley, central Tajikistan, shedding rare light on early human settlement in the region. The findings from the site, known as Soii Havzak, provide crucial evidence that Central Asia played a vital role in early human migration and development.

Using a sophisticated new modeling approach, researchers at the University of Massachusetts Amherst have estimated carbon dioxide emissions from inland waters to 22 million U.S. lakes, rivers and reservoirs. It marks the first time this approach has been applied at a continental scale, and reveals previous methods may have overestimated CO2 emissions by as much as 25%.

The Amazon region is a global hotspot of biodiversity and plays a key role in the climate system because of its ability to store large amounts of carbon and its influence on the global water cycle. The rain forest is threatened, however, by climate change as well as by intensified deforestation activities.

The continuing release of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere is a major driver of global warming and climate change with increased extreme weather events. Researchers at Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (JGU) have now presented a method for effectively converting carbon dioxide into ethanol, which is then available as a sustainable raw material for chemical applications.
