The Pelicans need to make a bold move to better their future.
With the New Orleans Pelicans season now over courtesy of a first round sweep at the hands of the Oklahoma City Thunder, the next battle for the team to face involves the future of Brandon Ingram.
The blame for how quickly the Pelicans’ season ended doesn’t fall solely on Ingram’s shoulders – losing Zion Williamson to injury (again) surely doesn’t help – but it...

Let’s figure out which teams helped themselves the most during the 2024 NFL Draft, and which teams didn’t do enough.
The 2024 NFL Draft is in the rear view mirror and we’ve had some time to evaluate every class. This idea that “you can’t evaluate a draft for three years” is often parroted and holds some truth, but it’s an over-used phrase by fans of teams who had consensus terrible drafts to make them feel better...
This will definitely end well and be fine.
In a move that surely won’t result in someone taking a Skee-Ball to the face, Dave and Buster’s announced Tuesday that patrons will soon be able to gamble on arcade games.
Lucra, the company behind the betting technology is very careful not to use the term “gambling” or “betting,” instead referring to them as “challenges” or “real-money contests” — but if is walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck. It will allow for...
Thanks to its self-cleaning mop, automatic water tanks, and supersize bin, this robot vacuum can go for two months without any manual intervention.

The white Nova Pro in an optional carrying case.
SteelSeries is launching a white version of its excellent Arctis Nova Pro Wireless headset today. While it’s mostly just a white color option for a headset from 2022 that’s packed full of tech, there’s an important change to the ANC mics that could make these even more appealing.
SteelSeries has made the ANC mics within the ear cups slightly smaller overall, with less of a bump so they’re more comfortable to wear. At launch,...
Beats’ on-ear headphones get an overdue refresh with a more comfortable design, longer battery life, and wired audio over both USB-C and the 3.5mm jack — but no ANC.

Beats just announced its new Solo 4, its latest in a long line of on-ear wireless headphones. The latest model, priced at $199.99, offers battery life of up to 50 hours. That endurance is no doubt helped by the fact that these lack active noise cancellation, a feature present in many competing products at the same price point. But Beats says plenty of other improvements await buyers of the Solo 4.
For one, they support wired audio over both USB-C and the 3.5mm jack. And...

Roku has a plan to boost ad revenue. The company will start showing video ads on your homescreen at some point. Roku CEO Anthony Wood told investors during the company’s earnings call last week that the company will put the video ads in the “premier video app we called the Marquee” where static image ads live now.
It sounds like Wood is referring to the box on the homescreen that sits to the right of your Roku apps, which hopefully means the video ads...

Microsoft is officially holding its big Xbox summer showcase on June 9th, as The Verge reported earlier this month. The showcase will air on Sunday, June 9th, at 10AM PT / 1PM ET / 6PM UK and will include a deep dive into the next installment of Call of Duty after the main show ends.
Microsoft is only teasing the Call of Duty Direct as “the next installment of a beloved franchise,” but sources familiar with the company’s plans tell me that this is indeed Call of...

Bumble’s redesigned dating app has a new “Opening Move” feature that’s supposed to take the legwork out of starting conversations. Women on the app can now choose from a list of prewritten prompts — or come up with their own — that the app will send to all their matches.
Unlike dating apps like Tinder and Hinge, Bumble lets women take the first move when they get a match. The new Opening Move option should at least make it less intimidating (and less...

Converting to egg production is not only costly but is also high risk due to bird flu infections.
Some U.S. farmers who once raised chickens for Tyson Foods to slaughter are shifting to sell eggs instead after the meatpacker closed six plants, a move that left local suppliers with limited options for work.
The Climate Reality Check tracks how climate change shows up in films. The films that pass tend to be more profitable, says a new study.
Any modern movie would seem unrealistic if it didn’t depict people looking at their phones all the time. One of the few storytelling strategies for getting around the fact that 90% of Americans now own smartphones is to set one’s film in the past. The ubiquity of these devices is simply too enmeshed in the fabric of our reality now to avoid addressing...

This generation, born between 1997 and 2012, currently makes up 21% of the U.S. population. As they continue to come of age, their spending power...
