Twitch Tries to Exterminate Bot Infestation With Legal Action
Twitch IRL. Image: TwitchMaking a name for oneself on the popular video game streaming network Twitch is a bit of a rough job these days, particularly with around 100 million monthly visitors struggling for attention. To scramble to the top of that pile, some of Twitch's broadcasters have been shelling out cash to companies who shower their channels with bogus viewers and followers for a price. Yesterday, though, Twitch announced it was sick of it and that it was doing something about it beside..>> view originalMercedes Benz's E300 is a luxury car that happens to be high-tech
It's easy to get caught up in the luxury of the E300. It's luxurious and swift (thanks to 241 horsepower and 273 pounds of torque), with features you didn't think you needed until you actually experience them. For instance, when you take a corner, the sides of the chair expand to keep you from sliding in your seat. It's like a side hug for g-forces.Keeping your butt in the seat (which isn't novel, but still pretty necessary) is one of those instances where Mercedes takes an idea and gives it a ..>> view originalNo Man's Sky can keep its name after developer settles with Sky TV
No Man's Sky, the hotly anticipated adventure game due out this summer, won't suffer a last-minute name change. Hello Games founder Sean Murray tweeted last night that the company had just settled with Sky, the UK's largest pay-TV broadcaster. Murray didn't state what the terms of the settlement are, but apparently the legal battle has been plaguing Hello for years: Yay! We finally settled with Sky (they own the word "Sky").

Antarctica recently witnessed an event that last took place four million years ago: Carbon dioxide levels broke through the barrier of 400 parts per million (ppm).In fact, the frozen continent is a laggard in this respect. The announcement Wednesday by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) gave the date of this milestone as May 23. But the global annual mean concentration of carbon dioxide already surpassed 400 ppm last year, the first time that has happened in human histor..>> view originalWaze will help you avoid difficult intersections
You know those intersections with no traffic lights and everyone's trying to cross at the same time? Waze calls them "difficult intersections," and the navigation app will help you avoid them altogether, so long as you're in Los Angeles. The app now calculates the best possible route and ETA with as few of them as possible. It could bypass them entirely if there's route that allows you to do that.
