Amazon has successfully convinced Apple to remove it from the App Store after the company raised concerns that the application provides misleading information and creates potential security vulnerabilities.

After drifting in space for almost a decade, it seems that Dead Space might actually be floating back into Earth’s orbit. The official YouTube channel for the Dead Space franchise has updated its profile picture for the first time in almost nine years, which is after eight years of total inactivity. While a seemingly innocent change, this combined with other reports seems to point to the franchise’s imminent return.

A generation ago, hard-core conservatives took over the largest Protestant church denomination in the U.S., the Southern Baptist Convention, and birthed what we now call “the Christian right.” They overcame a tradition of congregational and state-convention autonomy to impose biblical inerrancy, the subordination of women in the pews and at home...

Black Lives Matter's co-founder says she is resigning from its foundation, but not because of what she called right-wing attempts to discredit her. Patrisse Cullors said Friday would be her last day at the foundation, which she has led for nearly six years. The 37-year-old activist's finances came under scrutiny last month after it was reported she owned four homes.

Nintendo's long-awaited Switch upgrade is expected to be shown ahead of E3 2021, according to a report published by Bloomberg today and Eurogamer's own sources.

Netflix revealed that it will spend over $17 billion on content this year, according to its first-quarter earnings report. “As we’ve noted previously, the production delays from Covid-19 in 2020 will lead to a 2021 slate that is more heavily second half weighted with a large number of returning franchises,” said the company in its letter to shareholders.

We’re nearly five months into this new generation of consoles, and things are largely going as expected. It’s still frustratingly difficult to purchase either versions of the PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X | S. A wealth of high-profile games are being delayed into 2022 and beyond, largely due to the massive impact the pandemic had on all facets of development. But all things aside, the new boxes are solid pieces of hardware and show a bright future for both Microsoft and Sony.

Landing on Mars should be boring by now. NASA has been doing it since the 1970s. Last week, the agency did it again, achieving its sixth consecutive soft landing on the red planet, and its eighth total out of nine attempts. As records go, NASA never managed six consecutive controlled landings on the Moon, and either way, mere months after Neil Armstrong’s one small step for a man, the public had collectively tuned out the Apollo program.

Simone Biles is the last person international gymnastics officials should be using to try and make a point. In an effort to deter other gymnasts from trying skills they are not physically capable of doing, the International Gymnastics Federation watered down the value of a new element Biles plans to do at the world championships.
