Honeywell has today announced the second-generation version of the Honeywell Lyric thermostat. The first version (currently discounted ahead of the new hardware) was labelled with HomeKit advertising in various places, but that support never materialized. Honeywell has clarified that interested customers will have to buy the new $249 hardware to use the Lyric with HomeKit, currently available for preorder from the Honeywell website. If you don’t want to wait, check out the ecobee3 system....

A new Hostile Planet clip shows a jaguar battling a crocodile. On the National Geographic docuseries that debuted early April 2019, host Bear Grylls explores the world’s most brutal habitats. National Geographic first launched on television in 2011. Over the years, it’s been known for producing nature-themed series, along with numerous documentaries about historic events and historical figures. In recent years, National Geographic aired the docudrama science fiction series Mars, and the network has also broadcast the talk show StarTalk hosted by Neil deGrasse Tyson....

After deploying its C-band 5G coverage at the beginning of the year – including some controversy with the FAA – Verizon and AT&T are looking to catch up to T-Mobile. Now a new report from Opensignal shows how much of a difference the new mid-band 5G coverage has made for performance so far. In its latest study, Opensignal measured “the impact of the C-band launches on the 5G mobile experience.” While AT&T and Verizon’s C-band is mostly in the frequency range of 3....

If you pre-ordered a fancy new iPhone SE or 9.7-inch iPad Pro and expected it to be delivered today, you might have to wait a little longer depending on which part of the country you live in. The culprit to potential iPhone SE and iPad Pro delivery delays is a giant thunderstorm band stretching across the midwest toward the east coast. My own pre-ordered Apple hardware comes from a fulfillment center in Nashville, Tennessee, then goes north to Kentucky, down to Pensacola, Florida, and across Mobile, Alabama before reaching my front porch....

Hereditary, Ari Aster’s incredible horror debut, is well-known the world over for being perhaps one of the best horror movies of recent memory. The film itself is so expertly crafted that you may not have noticed some of the hints it gives its viewers about the cult-shaped carnage that’s going to ensue in the last quarter of the film. While not all of these are obvious on the first watch without being fairly familiar with occultism and a keen eye, upon a second watch, you’ll notice people hiding in the shadows and a strange symbol around the necks of a lot of the main family....

The all-powerful Deathwing is finally coming to Heroes of the Storm, immediately becoming the largest playable character in the game. Many may remember Deathwing as the spectacularly large dragon that arrived in World of Warcraft and forever changed the layout of the game’s world in its Cataclysm expansion. Since then, the character has gone on to become one of the most beloved in WoW lore, which eventually led to a rather adamant fan base requesting the dragon’s inclusion in Blizzard’s Heroes of the Storm....

Jojo Rabbit’s marketing has revived the old Hitler Reacts meme for a funny video that promotes the release of Taika Waititi’s upcoming anti-hate WWII satire. Waititi, an actor-filmmaker-producer who hales from New Zealand, has quickly become a big name in the U.S. following the success of his irreverent, ’80s-inspired superhero adventure Thor: Ragnarok. But before he returns to the MCU for the recently-announced 2021 release of Thor: Love and Thunder, Waititi will unveil a smaller and even more idiosyncratic project that takes him back to his moviemaking roots....

When Apple announced HomeKit Secure Video, one of the first products to be desired by customers was a doorbell. Ring doorbells had become very popular, but customers wanted an option that integrated nicely with HomeKit and Apple products and provided an end-to-end encryption option for recording. The idea that a smart doorbell would be able to show you who was at your front door before even opening it up seemed like something out of a science-fiction novel a few decades ago, but now, there are multiple products and platforms that offer this service....

When it comes to oil diffusers, some people think they’ll solve the world’s problems and others believe they are humidifiers that smell nice. I fall in the latter category, but we still have multiple products around our house. We’ve tried several HomeKit options in the past, and while they technically worked well the overall appearance of them left a bit to be desired. The new Meross Smart Wi-Fi essential oil diffuser brings a much better-looking option to this category of products....

Update: After Apple released today’s build 19J5304e of HomePod Software 15, it appears that the Lossless Audio quality toggle is gone. For a brief moment on the previous build, a few users were able to use the smart speaker with this higher-quality but it seems like Apple has removed it for now. Apple today released HomePod Software 15 beta 3 for the HomePod mini and HomePod, and it appears the update brings support for Lossless streaming in Apple Music....

Apple CEO Tim Cook recently agreed to testify to the House antitrust committee, alongside the chief execs of other tech giants, but it appears it has already heard from Microsoft’s president – who reportedly expressed concerns about the App Store. The committee has a wide-ranging remit to see whether tech giants are guilty of anti-competitive behaviors, with Apple coming under the most scrutiny for the way it operates the App Store …...

House of Cards was perhaps one of the best television shows of the modern era. Or, at least, it was until the scandal. Once the news came out of Kevin Spacey’s gross misbehavior, his (rightful) firing from the show doomed the final season. Everyone had tuned in to watch the story of the evil, manipulative Frank Underwood. Although Claire is also a greatly compelling character, the show’s sixth and final season without Frank simply felt empty....

Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. season 5 has come to a triumphant close, and the S.H.I.E.L.D. team has successfully changed the timeline. It seems time isn’t fixed after all; it is, as Jemma Simmons notes, an ever-changing, beautiful thing. Season 5 has seen Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. transform into a science-fiction series, with the agents attempting to avert a dystopian future timeline in which the Earth had been shattered like an eggshell. Every step along the journey seemed preordained, and that apocalyptic future seemed to be set in place....

The moderated discussion will take place at the annual Tribeca Film Festival in New York on Thursday, April 25 at 6pm ET, and will be heavily focused on the upcoming game from Kojima Productions. Death Stranding is one of the most heavily anticipated game releases in recent memory, and it doesn’t even have an official release date yet....

There are some big features that should arrive with iOS 15.1 but one of the subtle and useful changes coming looks to be the option to set HomeKit automations based on humidity sensors. iOS 15.1 is shaping up to be a notable release with SharePlay showing up in the beta along with a fix for the Unlock with Apple Watch feature, and support to store COVID vaccination cards in Apple Wallet and Health....

The Great Firewall of China prevents open communication over the Internet, but technologies like AirDrop do not require the Internet to function. Protesters in Hong Kong are using AirDrop to share digital fliers without fear of censorship, via Quartz. Whilst AirDrop defaults to receiving content from ‘Contacts Only’, a lot of people ultimately switch the setting to ‘Everyone’. In the US, some kids have fun with the feature in cities and airports by spreading memes around to unsuspecting strangers....

One of the coolest new features in iOS 13 is something called Audio Sharing. This lets you easily share your headphones audio with a friend via Bluetooth, allowing you to listen to the same music, watch a movie together, and more. Here’s how it works. What headphones work with Audio Sharing in iOS 13? Support for Audio Sharing in iOS 13 is a bit arbitrary. You’d think the feature would work across all headphones with Apple’s W1 or H1 chip inside, but that’s not the case....
