The more you match, the more you get to destroy of the planet. Each level gives you a fake news report to move the story along. The game is by the same people who did Fruit Ninja.

Columbo season 10 episode “A Trace Of Murder” finds the detective coming up against a killer who also happens to be a CSI agent. The character of Columbo had something of a strange evolution before becoming an icon. Bert Freed first played the detective in an episode of The Chevy Mystery Show, an anthology series, before Peter Falk (The Princess Bride) took over for 1968 TV movie Prescription: Murder. Even then, Falk’s take on Columbo was more aggressive than the one seen in the TV series....

While many customers were hoping Apple would end the era of white-only AirPods with the launch of AirPods Pro, they didn’t debut in a black option. As it’s done in the past, ColorWare is now out with custom colors to create a unique pair of AirPods Pro in both matte and glossy finishes. ColorWare debuted its AirPods Pro custom color options with 16 solid color choices and 16 metallic ones. Both the solid and metallic colors are available in both glossy or matte finishes....

The Information reports today that Sony is exploring selling off its Playstation Vue service.

The U.S. Justice Department has said that is now satisfied with Apple’s measures to guard against any repetition of the type of anti-competitive behaviour ruled illegal in the long-running ebooks trial. Bloomberg reports that the department has recommended that the court-appointed monitor is no longer necessary. The letter did, however, note that Apple “never embraced a cooperative working relationship with the monitor” … In a letter to the Manhattan federal judge who found in 2013 that Apple illegally conspired with publishers to set e-book prices, the U....

The entertainment world is still reeling from the tragic death of Luke Perry, and as fellow actors continue to pay tribute, more unheard stories about his life are beginning to surface, including from Colin Hanks. Perry, who was only 52-years-old, passed away just days after suffering a massive stroke at his home in California. Perry first skyrocketed to stardom due to his role as Dylan McKay on the teen drama Beverly Hill, 90210 (which just announced a six-episode event series)....

Gas station chain Chevron is planning to integrate support for Apple Pay checkouts at its pumps starting early next year, according to Bloomberg. Chevron has already supported Apple Pay inside many of its stores since Apple’s iPhone-based mobile payment service launched earlier this year in late October.

Chris Hemsworth is joining the cast of Kevin Smith’s upcoming Jay and Silent Bob Reboot. The film is a sequel of 2001’s Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, which was the first standalone film for the titular duo played by Jason Mewes and Smith himself. Smith’s View Askewniverse started with the low-budget, black and white comedy Clerks in 1994, and later included everything from Mallrats to Dogma. Jay and Silent Bob appear in all of these films, and eventually starred in their own film, Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back....

Fight for the Future, Algorithmic Justice League, EPIC, and other civil rights organizations launched a website – called Dump ID.me – allowing people to sign a petition against the IRS plan. This campaign site comes after days of criticism from privacy, justice, and civil rights groups concerned about the potential for a company like ID.me to have access to peoples’ most sensitive data. ID.me’s CEO Blake Hall faced widespread backlash for a LinkedIn post where he admitted that the company had been lying about the way its tool works....

WARNING: Spoilers for Cloak & Dagger and Avengers: Endgame. How will Marvel TV shows like Cloak & Dagger deal with the events of Avengers: Endgame. The answer is… not really. Marvel’s TV programming has yet to even touch the events of Avengers: Infinity War (outside of some name drops of Thanos), and this week’s episode of Cloak & Dagger - the sixth of season two - doesn’t change this. One of the trickiest parts of Marvel TV’s “it’s all connected” mantra is how the shows do or do not address what is happening in the films....

As businesses increasingly shift their infrastructures, employees will likewise require a broader range of technical skills. SEE: Remote working jobs row shows how much tech has changed Milind Govekar, chief of research at Gartner, says one of the biggest changes in the workforce will come as organizations lean harder into automation – which he calls “the centrepiece” of cloud business strategies. “Automation changes the entire mindset of the IT organization, particularly the infrastructure and operations organization, where they need to stop being administrators and become programmers – completely different skillsets,” Govekar tells ZDNet....

Here are my takeaways from our conversation with Goldin. Proactive doing is more important than having a playbook. Goldin and her team at Hint had to respond to the supply chain challenges due to the COVID-19 pandemic....

Uh-oh, says Facebook, it turns out millions of user passcodes were stored in plaint text on the social network’s servers. Facebook disclosed the mistake that risked exposing the passwords of Facebook and Instagram users in a new blog post called Keeping Passwords Secure — presumably the irony is not intentional. Facebook says it discovered the mistake earlier this year: The company goes on to say that no one outside of Facebook had access to user passwords, and to their knowledge, no one internally abused having access to exposed passwords stored in plaint text....
