Moog’s new analog synth is more than just a growling bass machine
Iconic synth maker Moog is technically showing at this year’s NAMM show, but in true Moog style, there’s no actual booth. Instead, the North Carolina-based company opted to create an off-site pop-up called the Moog Island Of Electronicus where it debuted its newest offering: an analog synth called Sirin. (Fun fact — the original “Island Of Electronicus” was a trippy, immersive experience the company came up with in 1971, replete with plush bean bags to sit on, stained glass, and of course, synths to play with.)
The Moog Sirin feels like it borrows from many other Moog products, but with key tweaks. It’s housed in a brushed stainless steel enclosure with a compact layout that harkens to the Minitaur synth, and it leans into a retro design...

VW just shut down part of its electric car charging network over a safety concern
Volkswagen’s dieselgate scandal may wind up birthing one of the largest electric car charging networks in the United States, but that plan just hit at least a slight bump — a “potential safety issue” that’s forcing VW-owned Electrify America to shut down most of its high-powered charging cables for now.
In a press release, the company doesn’t specify what the safety issue might actually be, only that it affects chargers between 150 and 350 kilowatts that are using liquid-cooled cables by Huber+Suhner, that it’s taking this action “out of an abundance of caution,” and that there’s a list of around 80 charging stations that will remain open.

Austin teen arrested for robbing a bank after using a Jump scooter as his getaway vehicle
The first rule of robbing a bank in 2019 is apparently not to use your credit card to rent the getaway car. According to Austin, Texas newspaper the Austin American-Statesman, 19-year-old Luca Mangiarano was charged yesterday with robbery by threat after showing up to a BBVA Compass bank on Austin’s Sixth Street and demanding money via a note handed to a teller. He was caught, however, because he allegedly used an Uber-owned Jump electric scooter as his means of escape after leaving with the cash.
The Statesman reports that Austin police contacted Uber about the robbery, and the company handed over Mangiarano’s name, address, and credit card number in relation to his renting of a Jump scooter seen in video footage, a scooter the police...

Tesla fined $29,365 for safety hazards in Model 3 production tent

Tesla failed to obtain a permit before building the tent, and failed to inspect it for potential safety hazards, according to Cal-OSHA. The company also failed to cover a hole in the floor that measured 22 inches wide, 14 inches long, and eight inches deep. Tesla also did not properly train employees on evacuation procedures in the tent, or on how to prevent and respond to heat illness. Lastly, the tent featured exposed metal rods and...

It’s not yet clear how much the new version of the subscription service (dubbed “Book 2.0”) will resemble the original (“Book by Cadillac”). In the original version, customers payed an upfront fee of $500, and then a $1,800 monthly fee that included insurance, maintenance, and more.

Bill Maher Slams Comic Book Readers, Calls Out Superhero Movies
Shortly after Stan Lee’s tragic passing late last year, Real Time host Bill Maher stirred up some controversy online (and that’s putting it lightly) with an incendiary blog piece. The ignorant and uncalled for article saw the comedian and TV personality use Lee’s death as a jumping off point for what became a blanket criticism of comic book culture in general, with Maher essentially telling us he thinks comics are simply an unimportant and juvenile art form, one which doesn’t deserve to be taken seriously.
Understandably, the fan backlash came in hard and fast, and given Maher’s history as a provocateur, it’s hardly surprising that he hasn’t been very apologetic about his statements. In fact, not only is he not willing to apologize, but it seems that he’s actually got more to say on the topic.
Yes, believe it or not, he’s still not done spewing his nonsense and earlier tonight he went on another rant. Taking shots at superhero movies, Kevin Smith and more, his words are sure to get people riled up and you can bet that the internet is going to have a lot to say about what Bill Maher put forth this time.
“Tonight’s editorial is about Stan Lee who, if you missed it, died in November,” said Maher. “And a few days later, I posted a blog that in no way was an attack on Mr. Lee, but took the occasion of his death to express my dismay at people who think comic books are literature and superhero movies are great cinema and who, in general, are stuck in an everlasting childhood. Bragging that you’re all about the Marvel Universe is like boasting your mother still pins your mittens to your sleeves.”
“You can, if you want, like the exact same things you liked when you were ten but if you do, you need to grow up,” ranted Maher. “That was the point of my blog. I’m not glad Stan Lee is dead, I’m sad you’re alive. By the way, if someone says you’re being childish and you react by throwing a tantrum, you’re not Iron Man — you’re Irony Man. Let me tell you, people were pissed about this post, I wasn’t even aware I ruffled so many capes until I saw that forty thousand Twitter followers unfollowed me like that [snaps], to which I say ‘Good riddance, go follow Yogi Bear.'”
But he wasn’t done yet. Oh no, far from it. Continuing on, the always controversial comedian and television host said the following:
“Director Kevin Smith accused me of “taking a shot when no shots are f**kin’ necessary,” except again my shot wasn’t at Stan Lee. It was at, you know, grown men who still dress like kids,” Maher said.
“Can we stop pretending that the writing in comic books is so good?” he continued. “Oh, please. Every superhero movie is the same thing — a person who doesn’t have powers, gets them, has to figure out how they work, and then has to find a glory thing. Justice League, glowy thing. Iron Man, glowy thing. Spider-Man, glory thing. Captain America, glowy thing.”
“I’m sorry, but if you’re an adult playing with superhero dolls, I’m sorry — I mean collectible action figures — why not go all the way and drive to work on a Big Wheel?” Maher said. “Grown-ups these days cling so desperately to their childhood that when they do attempt to act their age, they have a special word for it now: adulting.”
Regardless of whether you care for comics or think anything Maher’s said is worthwhile, it’s hard to see this as anything other than a case of a frequent provocateur taking an all-too-easy opportunity to stir up a response. In fact, comic book writer Neil Gaiman explained it best on Twitter a few months ago, saying:
“Maher’s just trolling, and lots of people are rising to the troll. (Julie Burchill did it better 30 years ago with her ‘There aren’t any adult comics because adults don’t read comics’ line. ) More people cared about Stan Lee’s death than care about Bill Maher alive.”
We certainly can’t argue with that last part, and though it remains to be seen if Bill Maher‘s latest comments will get folks as angry as his previous rant did, you can bet that the internet will definitely have something to say about this tomorrow morning.
