    Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's Twitch stream should be the blueprint for voter outreach - Morgan Sung Mashable !
    Using digital culture to engage with voters tends to have mixed results, but Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is leading the way for a new generation of politicians to interact with their constituents.  In an effort to encourage Americans to vote, Ocasio-Cortez teamed up with fellow U.S. Representative Ilhan Omar, Twitch streamer Pokimane, and political vlogger HasanAbi to stream a few rounds of Among Us, a Mafia-like game in which players must figure out who the "imposter" in the group is before they're killed.  The stream was a success, and at the peak, had a staggering 435,000 viewers, (...) -- Twitch, Aoc, Alexandria Ocasio Cortez, Culture, Web Culture

    GMC revives gas-guzzling Hummer as electric 'supertruck' - Sasha Lekach Mashable !
    It may seem like an oxymoron that the massive, gas-guzzling GMC Hummer, once known as a symbol of overconsumption and excess, is back as a zero-emission, battery-powered electric car.  But that's exactly what happened on Tuesday evening when the electrified Hummer was revealed through a video streamed on YouTube (you can watch it above). The hulking mass of an EV is supposed to reach up to 350 miles on a single charge and go from 0 to 60 in approximately three seconds.  The supertruck (it's part SUV, part pickup) was first officially teased back in January and NBA star LeBron James (...) -- Electric Vehicles, Hummer, Tech, Transportation

    7 horror films that will make you happy you're single - Sam Haysom Mashable !
    In Party for One, Mashable explores single life in 2020, from Carly Rae Jepsen's iconic single anthems, to the beauty of alone time, and the fascinating history behind the single positivity movement. For the most part, horror urges you not to stay in creepy accommodation, not to run upstairs when you should be running out the front door, and certainly not to "investigate" any strange noises in the attic.  But some movies would also advise you on another thing entirely: enjoy being single.

    Family is forever, but all good things must still come to an end. The beloved Fast and Furious franchise will sadly reach its finish line after an eleventh film, according to a new report by Variety. Fast and Furious veteran Justin Lin will return to direct the final two instalments, having previously steered Fast & Furious, Fast Five, Fast & Furious 6, and next year's F9.

    Twitter hack shows need for cybersecurity regulations, govt. report says - Jack Morse Mashable !
    In the eyes of government regulators, critical services and lax cybersecurity don't mix — especially when those services support the online accounts of former president Barack Obama, former vice president Joe Biden, and current president Donald Trump. The embarrassing and costly Twitter hack this past July served as more than just a wake-up call for the scores of public figures who trusted the social media giant to keep their accounts safe.

    After a four year trek through deep space, OSIRIS-REx made history this evening as it became the first NASA spacecraft to try and collect a surface sample from an asteroid (Editor’s note: servers may be down due to the breaking news). Once sensors verify the collected material is safely onboard, the vehicle will begin drifting away from the 490 meter wide Bennu in preparation of its eventual departure and return to Earth.

Well, Jaskolski said that he was working on a project that could automatically identify poachers and endangered animals from camera footage, and one of the major (...) -- Artificial Intelligence, Funding, Fundings & Exits, Recent Funding, Startups, Lupa Systems, Synthetaic

    Here’s why Netflix shares are off after reporting earnings - Alex Wilhelm TechCrunch
    Shares of consumer video service Netflix are down sharply after the bell today, nofollowing the company’s Q3 earnings report. Why is Netflix suddenly worth about 5% less than before? A mixed earnings report, a disappointing new paying customer number and slightly slack guidance appear to be the answer. Heading into the third quarter, Netflix told investors that they should expect it to generate revenues of $6.33 billion, operating income of $1.25 billion and net income of around $954 million, worth about $2.09 in earnings per share. Today, Netflix reported $6.44 billion in revenue, (...) -- Earnings, Media, TC, Netflix

    Netflix user growth slows as production ramps up again - Anthony Ha TechCrunch
    After the COVID-19 pandemic drove impressive subscriber growth earlier this year, Netflix’s numbers have come back down to Earth. The streaming service added 15.77 million net new subscribers in the first quarter of the year, nofollowed by 10.09 million in Q2. It only projected 2.5 million for Q3. Today’s earnings report shows the company falling short of that already underwhelming goal, with only 2.2 million net additions, bringing its total subscriber base to 195 million. And it’s forecasting 6.0 million net additions in Q4, compared to 8.8 million in the same period last year. “As we (...) -- Media, Netflix

    Adobe brings its misinformation-fighting content attribution tool to the Photoshop beta - Taylor Hatmaker TechCrunch
    Adobe’s work on a chain of custody that could link online images back to their origins is inching closer to becoming a reality.

Adobe says the preview of the new tool will be available to users in the beta release of Photoshop and Behance over the next few weeks.

    Mashujaa: Celebrate the communities of Kenya with Google Arts & Culture Google Blog
    Today in Kenya we’re celebrating Mashujaa Day, or National Heroes Day, and honoring the remarkable people who have shaped our nation. We are shining the spotlight on a pantheon of cultural and folk heroes, and how their superpowers continue to be the strength and heartbeat of not only the communities from which they came, but all of Kenya. We need days like these to remind us how our shared heritage and our diversity unites us as people, and it is therefore with great pride that I unveil the second chapter of the online project Utamaduni Wetu: Meet the People of Kenya, created in (...) -- Arts and Culture, Google in Africa,

    This (mostly) Transparent Tesla Coil Shows It All - Tom Nardi hack a day
    You’d be forgiven for assuming that a Tesla coil is some absurdly complex piece of high-voltage trickery. Clarke’s third law states that “any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic”, and lighting up a neon tube from across the room sure looks a lot like magic. But in his latest Plasma Channel video, [Jay Bowles] tries to set the record straight by demonstrating a see-through Tesla coil that leaves nothing to the imagination. Of course, we haven’t yet mastered the technology required to produce transparent copper wire, so you can’t actually see through the primary and (...) -- classic hacks, Science, acrylic, capacitor bank, high voltage, spark gap, tesla coil

    Untethered: Fishing Without Lines - Bryan Cockfield hack a day
    There’s a laundry list of ways that humans are polluting the earth, and even though it might not look like it from the surface, the oceans seem to bear the brunt of our waste. Some research suggests that plastic doesn’t fully degrade as it ages, but instead breaks down into smaller and smaller bits that will be somewhere the in environment for such a long time it could be characterized in layman’s terms as forever. Not only does waste of all kinds make its way to the oceans by rivers or simply by outright dumping, but commercial fishing gear is estimated to comprise around 10% of the waste (...) -- HackadayPrize2020, Supplyframe , Digi-Key , Microchip , Arm

    Lewis Latimer Drafted the Future of Electric Light - Kristina Panos hack a day
    These days, we have LED light bulbs that will last a decade. But it wasn’t so long ago that incandescent lamps were all we had, and they burned out after several months. Thomas Edison’s early light bulbs used bamboo filaments that burned out very quickly. An inventor and draftsman named Lewis Latimer improved Edison’s filament by encasing it in cardboard, earning himself a patent the process. Lewis had a hard early life, but he succeeded in spite of the odds and his lack of formal education. He was a respected draftsman who earned several patents and worked directly with Alexander Graham (...) -- Incandescent Electric Lighting

    Amazon's Luna Gaming Service Available on Mac and iOS as Part of Early Access Rollout - Juli Clover MacRumors
    Amazon today announced that its Luna cloud-based gaming service is available in the United States as part of an early access test, with Luna able to be used on Macs, PCs, Fire TV, and iOS devices through web apps. Amazon is not able to develop a native app for the iPhone because of Apple's restrictions that would require each cloud-based streaming game to be submitted to the App Store separately, a barrier that has also prevented Microsoft's xCloud and Google's Stadia from being brought to the iPhone and the iPad. Given this restriction, Amazon is using a web-based interface on the iPhone (...) -- Amazon
