Fujifilm’s GFX 100 is a medium format camera that performs like a mirrorless
Fujifilm has just officially announced its next medium format camera, the GFX 100. The latest GFX, the new model joins the GFX 50S and GFX 50R, released in 2016 and 2018, respectively. The GFX 100 introduces some major leaps over the prior models, including a much higher resolution, in-body image stabilization, and much faster performance. It will be available starting on June 27th for $9,999.95.
Unlike Fujifilm’s prior medium format bodies, the GFX 100 features a full-size design, meaning it has an integrated vertical grip and a much larger stance than the typical mirrorless camera. It’s much closer in size to Canon’s EOS-1D X than even Fujifilm’s own GFX 50R. Inside that hulking, three-pound frame is a new, 102-megapixel sensor and...

Indiegogo’s CEO steps down amid layoffs
David Mandelbrot is out as CEO of crowdfunding site Indiegogo, citing “personal reasons” in his farewell LinkedIn post. The company also laid off some employees, according to sources familiar with the matter.
Andy Yang will begin his tenure as the next CEO today, Mandelbrot said in his post, which was published yesterday. Yang was most recently “leading core product at Reddit,” and had previously been the CEO of 500px, an online platform and community for photographers. “I’m thrilled to take over the CEO reins from Dave and enable the company to further achieve its mission,” Mandelbrot quoted Yang as saying.
The post did not comment on the layoffs. An email to Mandelbrot wasn’t returned. Indiegogo declined to comment.

Las Vegas approves a $48.6 million contract with Elon Musk’s Boring Company
The Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority held a vote today, where it approved a $48.6 million contract with the Boring Company, Elon Musk’s tunneling venture. The Boring Company’s underground “people mover,” the LVCC Loop, will consist of two tunnels for vehicles and three stations, as well as a pedestrian tunnel.
The project is expected to be complete in time to be used at the Consumer Electronics Show in January 2021, LVCVA told me in March. Then, Musk got on Twitter and suggested the project could be running by the end of the year. The public contract suggests that tests will start by November 2020. Regardless of the completion date, two-thirds of the money in the contract won’t be paid until the project is complete.

‘Skyborg’ could let F-35 and F-15 fighter jets control their own companion drones
The US Air Force hopes that the XQ58-A Valkyrie drone wingman might someday accompany the F-35 and a new version of the F-15 fighter jet, according to Defense News.
The aircraft is designed to fill a role known as “loyal wingman” — imagined as a low-cost platform that would be controlled by a parent aircraft to accomplish a variety of tasks, such as flying ahead to scout out terrain, or absorb enemy fire in the event that they’re attacked.
The Air Force is reportedly talking with defense manufacturers Boeing and Lockheed Martin, which manufactures the fighter jets, about integrating the platforms. Will Roper, the Assistant Secretary of the Air Force for Acquisition, Technology and Logistics, told Defense News that a forthcoming...

Playdate is an adorable handheld with games from the creators of Qwop, Katamari, and more

Now, the developer is expanding its work in games and moving in a very unexpected direction. Today, Panic unveiled Playdate, a tiny, yellow Game Boy-like device with a black-and-white screen, a few chunky buttons, and... a hand crank for controlling quirky games developed by indie stars like Keita Takahashi and Zach Gage.
The company says that it wanted to create “something truly different in the world of video games.” From the looks of the Playdate, it managed to do just that. “The yellow color immediately made Playdate feel approachable, friendly, and impossible to...

Huawei executive accused of helping steal trade secrets
A Huawei executive was involved in a plot to steal trade secrets, claims California-based electronics startup CNEX Labs. Chinese telecommunications company Huawei and CNEX — which was co-founded by a former Huawei employee — have filed dueling lawsuits over trade secret theft. Now, The Wall Street Journal reports that high-level Huawei figure Eric Xu has been accused of helping oversee an alleged conspiracy.
The Journal quotes a newly released hearing transcript that offers some details in a largely locked-down trial. According to its write-up, CNEX claims that Xu — one of Huawei’s rotating chairmen — “directed a Huawei engineer to analyze Cnex’s technical information.” The engineer then allegedly posed as a potential CNEX customer to...

A quarter of Google Duplex calls are actually placed by humans
Earlier this month, I shadowed several restaurants throughout New York and talked to restaurant employees across the US to see how they’ve received Google Duplex, the AI that makes life-like calls for reservations on your behalf. Most if not all agreed that those calls sounded unmistakably human — and according to Google’s response to reporting by The New York Times, there’s a 25 percent chance that they were.
Google says that a quarter of Duplex calls start with human callers, and 15 percent start with the AI and are later intervened by a person from the Duplex call center. The company told The New York Times that it uses a variety of signals to decide whether a call should be placed by a human or a robot, “like if the company is unsure...

Smart home assistants need smarter timers. Today, you can use Alexa, Google Assistant, or Siri to set timers. You can use all three smart assistants to control your smart home gadgets.

Now, you could use a pre-programmed routine, but that’s not the same thing. You can set your lights to go on when a motion detector goes off, have your motorized shades close at sunset, or have your air conditioner turn on at exactly 12:53PM on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays.

A contentious legal debate over user agreements has been delayed after Elizabeth Warren called it ‘dangerous’
A group of legal experts has delayed a controversial vote about contracts that affects any internet user who’s clicked “Agree” without really reading a platform’s terms of service.
It’s difficult to buy products, use apps, or even go online without accepting the terms of dauntingly long user agreements, which govern everything from how companies use your data to whether you can sue them. People almost universally ignore these contracts, which has created a conundrum for courts: when has a user meaningfully agreed to something, and when is a company taking advantage of their ignorance?
The powerful American Law Institute (ALI) hoped to solve this problem with something called the Restatement of the Law of Consumer Contracts. The proposal...

Windows 10 May 2019 Update: the 10 best new features
Microsoft’s latest Windows 10 May 2019 Update is being made available to existing machines this week. After an extended period of testing, Microsoft is making this update available to everyone via Windows Update. Like previous updates, the May 2019 Update includes a bunch of new features, minor tweaks, and other changes.
I’ve been testing the Windows 10 May 2019 Update recently, and here are my favorite new additions.
A new light theme
The biggest new visual change to Windows 10 in the May 2019 Update is a new light theme. It takes over as the default theme for Windows 10 Home, and it’s essentially a white version of the currently black theme that most people use in Windows 10. While Windows 10’s dark mode isn’t always consistent...

Justice Department recommends blocking T-Mobile-Sprint merger
On Wednesday, the Antitrust Division at the United States Justice Department recommended that the law enforcement agency block the proposed merger of T-Mobile and Sprint, according to Reuters.
The $26 billion merger deal was greenlit by Republican commissioners for approval by the Federal Communications Commission earlier this week after T-Mobile agreed to new terms that would reportedly encourage a faster 5G rollout and provide greater in-home broadband access to rural America.
Reuters reported that the decision is expected to be made in about a month, likely sinking the deal that has been waiting for approval for over a year.

Apple’s new MacBook keyboard fix is reassuring and worrying at the same time
I genuinely don’t know whether to feel reassured or worried about Apple’s latest attempt to address its busted butterfly keyboards. I think it’s both — because on the very same day Apple announced a revised version of its MacBook Pro keyboard that supposedly won’t get crippled by mere specks of dust, it included those brand-new keyboards in the same free extended repair program designed to placate customers whose keyboards do fail.

ARM cuts ties with Huawei, threatening future chip designs
Chip designer ARM has suspended business with Huawei, threatening the Chinese company’s ability to create its own chips. BBC News reports that ARM employees have been instructed to halt “all active contracts, support entitlements, and any pending engagements” with Huawei due to the US trade ban. The US has banned any US companies from doing business with the Chinese telecom giant without permission from the American government, but ARM is based in the UK and owned by the Japanese SoftBank group.
ARM is concerned it is affected by the US ban, with an internal memo revealing that its chip designs include “US origin technology.” Huawei relies on ARM for chip architecture designs for its own Kirin processors, and it pays to license these....

EE and Vodafone drop Huawei phones from 5G launch in the UK
UK mobile carriers EE and Vodafone have dropped Huawei devices from the launch of their respective 5G networks. It’s the latest example of carriers distancing themselves from the Chinese tech giant after Google pulled the company’s Android license in response to a US government ban.
Both the carriers were set to include Huawei Mate 20 X 5G, one of the world’s first 5G-capable smartphones, as part of their 5G networks. Vodafone’s suspension of the device was reported by The Financial Times, with a spokesperson saying: “Huawei’s 5G handset is yet to receive the necessary certifications.”

EE’s service will be available in six cities at launch — London, Edinburgh, Cardiff, Belfast, Birmingham, and Manchester — and the operator says it plans to add ten more cities in 2020.
Although EE’s network is launching first, Vodafone’s network is due to be available in more cities initially. Vodafone’s network will be available in seven cities at launch — Bristol, Glasgow, Manchester, Liverpool, Cardiff, Birmingham, and London.

Sony CEO defends smartphone business but will focus on just four markets
Sony CEO Kenichiro Yoshida has reaffirmed the company’s commitment to its loss-making Xperia smartphone business, positioning it as a central part of Sony’s entertainment-focused identity.
“We see smartphones as hardware for entertainment and a component necessary to make our hardware brand sustainable,” Yoshida said in comments reported by Reuters. “And younger generations no longer watch TV. Their first touch point is [the] smartphone.”
Despite this, Sony is far from a major player in the smartphone industry, shipping just 6.5 million units over the past financial year and making an operating loss of 97.1 billion yen ($879.4 million). This week the company said at its investor day that it was “defocused” on all but four markets: Japan,...

Amazon turns warehouse tasks into video games to make work ‘fun’
Conditions in Amazon’s warehouses are notoriously grueling, but the company has a new tactic it thinks will make employees’ lives easier: turn work into a video game.
As detailed in a new report from The Washington Post, Amazon has started installing screens next to workers’ stations that feature simple games with names like PicksInSpace, Mission Racer, and CastleCrafter. Their physical actions, assembling orders and moving items, are translated into virtual in-game moves. So, the faster someone picks items and places them in a box, for example, the faster their car will move around a virtual track.
The games are intended to make work less tedious, but also encourage higher productivity by pitting workers against one another in the...

The Smart Clock is a smaller version of Lenovo’s existing Smart Display that’s meant more for a bedside table than a kitchen countertop. It’s got a four-inch display that’s mostly going to be useful for checking the time, but you can also use the Smart Clock to charge your devices and play music. It also supports Google Assistant Routines, allowing you to use a single voice command to complete multiple...

Avengers: Endgame And Infinity War Shot A Whopping 900 Hours Of Footage
Avengers: Endgame and Avengers: Infinity War are easily the two longest entries in the MCU to date, with the third Avengers movie coming in at 2 hours 30 minutes and its sequel clocking in at around 3 hours. When you consider just how much raw footage there was from the intensive year-long back-to-back shoot for both films, however, the time it takes to marathon the two doesn’t seem so bad.
Endgame co-editor Jeffrey Ford has revealed that a staggering 900 hours of material was shot across the pair of flicks. Ford, who worked with his fellow editor Matthew Schmidt, mentioned the shocking news to Business Insider, explaining that there was so much shot because the process of bringing the movies together was an ongoing job that spread across production on both Infinity War and Endgame.
“We were cutting every day, we were refining, we were figuring out what we were going to reshoot, figuring out what we had to finish. It was a constant state of pre-production, production and postproduction all at the same time for almost a year straight.”
Principal photography on the films lasted across 2017, but once that was up that didn’t mean Ford and Schmidt could kick back and rest. It sounds like their heavy workload during shooting was just cutting through the fat. It was over a four month period, including the very month that Infinity War hit theaters, that they had to put the first of the movies together for release.
“And then when we finished that year of insanity we went right into an absolutely hellish, almost impossible postproduction period that lasted from January to April when we delivered Infinity War, and that was one of the most intense periods of filmmaking I ever experienced, and I have worked on some crazy movies.”
Ford’s words are echoed by previous comments made by directors the Russo brothers, who revealed that their one big regret about making these pics is deciding to produce them back to back in the first place. The fact that 900 hours was filmed – that’s about 37.5 days! – just goes to show how hard it must’ve been to get them in shape.
So, next time you sit through Avengers: Endgame and complain about the strain it puts on your bladder, just think about the acres and acres of footage the editors must have sat through to turn it into a tiny 3-hour package for you to enjoy.

New Petition Calls For Marvel To Cast Danny DeVito As The Next Wolverine
For some reason, fans believe that their silly Change.org petitions will have an impact on the decisions that the higher-ups of billion dollar conglomerates make. The latest comes courtesy of user Ring Arius, who’s asked Marvel Studios to consider It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia star Danny DeVito to play Wovlerine if the character were to ever pop up in the MCU.
Given the multiverse we could be introduced to in Spider-Man: Far From Home in July, it may be possible that we see Wolverine, Deadpool, and other characters Disney has acquired from Fox cross over into the Marvel Cinematic Universe. But seeing the goofy comic actor, who played The Penguin in Tim Burton’s 1992 Batman Returns, don some pointed knuckles is hardly likely.
Still, the petition is picking up steam. At the time of writing, it’s garnered over 6,000 signatures and already surpassed its first benchmark goal by over 1,000 participants.
“The only man able to take the throne after Hugh Jackman,” Ring Arius says. “We believe that if Wolverine is to make an appearance in the Marvel Cinematic Universe that the only man able to pull it off is Danny [DeVito].”
Fan petitions have recently become a new and (ridiculously) popular means of communal complaining. At this time, there are ones dedicated to remaking the final season of Game of Thrones, getting rid of Brie Larson as Captain Marvel, and replacing Robert Pattinson as the next Batman.
Out of all of these, this one seems to be the most ludicrous, so perhaps Ring Arius is attempting to satirize the recent trend. But that’s unlikely.
For the sake of argument, could you see DeVito as an older, fatter Logan/Wolverine? Personally, I think the multiverse would have to extend pretty far out there to let the It’s Always Sunny star land that role, but let us know what you think in the comments below!

Robert Pattinson Says He Absolutely Cannot Talk About Batman
Ever since rumors started circulating that Robert Pattinson was being eyed for the title role in Matt Reeves’ The Batman, the former Twilight star has been the talk of the town. But not necessarily in a good way. While there has been some support for the 33-year-old actor, there’s also a petition on Change.org to replace him with Call Me By Your Name lead Armie Hammer.
With all that buzz flying around, Pattinson seems to be the only one who doesn’t want to – or perhaps isn’t allowed to – discuss it. Speaking with GALA Magazine, he quickly shut down the question that’s on most every Dark Knight fan’s mind:
GALA: What can you tell us about being chosen to be the next Batman?
R.P.: I’m sorry, but I absolutely can’t talk about that.
As of now, we know very little about The Batman. Warner Bros. also hasn’t confirmed Pattinson’s role in the film, and any details of the plot have been left under the table at this point (though Josh Gad, Nicholas Hoult and Sebastian Stan have been looking at roles as The Penguin and Riddler, respectively). But given that Reeves’ new project is set to enter production this December, more questions will have their answers soon enough.
What’s interesting to think about when it comes to Pattinson is his age. Fans all over the internet got excited when it was looking like the 32-year-old Armie Hammer was in final talks to star in The Batman. But multiple sources, and the actor himself quickly denied those claims. Then, THR reported that Reeves was “looking to cast a late 20-something actor,” driving an additional nail into the Hammer coffin.
But here’s the thing: Pattinson is older than Hammer. So unless Reeves still sees the teenage vampire in the actor’s eyes, there might be a change of expectations. And that would open the door for a whole bunch of other A-list performers. Personally, I’m still hoping to see Armie step foot in Gotham City. But I guess I’ll have to keep hoping.
