The NBA has suspended Bucks guard Patrick Beverley for four games without pay for throwing a basketball multiple times at fans and "an inappropriate interaction" with an ESPN producer after Game 6 against the Indiana Pacers last week.
Defense lawyers for Donald J. Trump, who has sold branded water, mattresses and steak, pressed Stormy Daniels about how she has capitalized on her account of a liaison with him.
“If we need to stand alone, we will stand alone,” the Israeli prime minister said, as the U.S. threatened to withhold more weapons.

And today, Instagram boss Adam Mosseri says the company is making it easy for anyone to see a post’s view count. “It’s important that people understand how their Threads posts perform, so we’re rolling out the ability to tap anywhere on a post to display its total view count,” he writes.

My Uber driver asked for my PIN recently. In my half-asleep state, I stared at him, alarmed, for a few seconds before it dawned on me: he was asking me to share the PIN Uber sent so I could verify my ride.
It turned out I’d activated all of Uber’s safety features while writing about Uber’s new safety customization section last month and then forgot about their existence entirely — which, to be honest, is pretty easy to do. Hidden away under Settings in...
Disney Plus, Hulu, and Max are teaming up for a new bundle this summer, Netflix is focused on the WWE and celebrity boxing, Disney Plus is getting ESPN, and Bloomberg reported earlier this week that Max could get a price hike. A familiar refrain emerged around all this news: streaming is becoming cable TV all over again and getting crummier in the process.

It’s earnings season, and anyone invested in the idea that electric vehicles are the future of transportation is all over Tesla.

“Buy our iPad or the piano gets it!” | Screenshot: Apple
I wonder if Apple CEO Tim Cook was surprised by the visceral revulsion many people felt after viewing the newest commercial for Apple’s iPad. In it, a plethora of creative tools are flattened by an industrial press. Watching a piano, which if maintained can last for something like 50 years, squished to advertise a gadget, designed to be obsolete in less than 10, is infuriating. The backlash was immediate.
The message many...
