Eventually, a movie will attempt to reboot or continue the story of Gremlins, the Joe Dante horror comedy that hit big in 1984 and had a less profitable but even funnier cult classic spring from its back in 1990. But the lower-stakes animated Gremlins series that’s been quietly streaming on Max makes the case that sometimes a weird Saturday morning-style spinoff is more rewarding than a splashy legacyquel attempting to recapture an old movie’s old magic.To be fair, Gremlins: The Wild Batch is more ambitious than most movie-related cartoons from the original Gremlins era. (The same goes for its predecessor/first season, which went under the title Gremlins: Secrets of the Mogwai.) Set in the 1920s, the show follows future curiosity-shop owner Sam Wing (Izaac Wang, recently seen in the affecting Didi) in the early days of his custody of the cuddly, apparently centuries-old Mogwai Gizmo. The first season was set in and around Sam’s native Shanghai, which was eventually, inevitably overrun by Gizmo’s accidental spawn: more mischievous Mogwai with a destructive drive to eat after midnight and transform into meaner, toothier gremlins. These antics adapt surprisingly well to a kid-targeted, TV-PG cartoon, where the violence is less explicit, but plenty of chattering beasts can still be squished into green goo, aided by 3D animation with its own cutely caricatured style. At times it’s almost like a Gremlins version of a DreamWorks fantasy cartoon.The Wild Batch follows Sam, his reformed-thief pal Elle (Gabrielle Nevaeh Green), his adventure-minded grandfather (James Hong), and the ever-adorable Gizmo on an extended trip to the United States, where a ship full of gremlins fled at the end of the first season. This second season has been split in half, which seems unnecessary for a total of only 10 22-minute episodes. But the two batches of five (one dropped last fall, with the rest premiering on Max this week) do make sense as mini-seasons, moving from San Francisco to the fading American West for the final five.While the first season started out building its characters before unleashing plenty of gremlins mayhem in its later episodes, The Wild Batch evidently feels comfortable enough to make the creatures almost secondary in some episodes. The main storyline involves Elle’s attempt to free her sort-of dead mother Margot (Yael Grobglas) from the clutches of Kung-Kung, the Water God. The whole season entwines Chinese mythology with American iconography, and the final five episodes go especially heavy on this technique, with a ghostly cowboy (Keith David) serving as a prominent supporting character. At times, these elaborations threaten to overwhelm the simple urban-legend appeal of the original movies. It’s almost as if the show’s creators had a whole other idea for an animated fantasy-adventure series and have been forced to figure out what available franchise could possibly accommodate it. Gremlins: The Wild Batch Season 2 GalleryOn the other hand, Gremlins is as rich and relatively untapped a world as any, and who can resist Timothy Olyphant voicing the ghost of Johnny Appleseed running a casino populated by spirits and trickster animals? Even as The Wild Batch goes lighter on the anarchic Looney Tunes energy that powered Gremlins 2: The New Batch, it maintains a certain try-anything spirit that feels compatible with that movie. (There’s even a direct homage to a pair of prominent, desert-appropriate Warner Bros. cartoon characters.) The only non-Gizmo Mogwai to carry over from last season is also a New Batch homage: a talking gremlin nicknamed Noggin (George Takei) cleary meant to evoke Tony Randall’s “brain” gremlin from that movie. While some killer instinct remains, Noggin also does a stint as a benevolent crime boss and a psychological counselor for Gizmo, who feels stirrings of his wilder side in these episodes.That subplot gets a little repetitive, but The Wild Batch makes enough weird detours – gremlins at Alcatraz! A haunted house connected to the ancestors of Gremlins 2 villain Daniel Clamp! Magical travel portals! – that it doesn’t matter too much when the season’s second half takes its time in unleashing the inevitable mayhem. So many spin-offs go heavy on the lore out of some misguided sense of fandom obligation. Gremlins: The Wild Batch does it with true-believer conviction.

Waking up in a bedroom that doesn’t inspire you is like starting your day with cold coffee—sure, it’s functional, but hardly the experience you deserve. We spend roughly a third of our lives in our bedrooms, so shouldn't we feel great in them?A groundbreaking January 2025 survey revealed that 38% of Americans reported better sleep quality after simply changing their bedroom color. Color psychologists have long understood that different hues trigger distinct physiological responses. Cool blues and greens top the charts for promoting serenity, signaling to your brain it's time to wind down, even lowering heart rate and blood pressure.For those seeking tranquility, soft whites, creams, and lavenders evoke feelings of safety and comfort. Earthy tones like sage green and terracotta create a connection to nature, promoting feelings of stability and grounding—perfect for quieting a restless mind after a chaotic day.

This is Rumor Replay, a weekly column at 9to5Mac offering a quick rundown of the most recent Apple product rumors, with analysis and commentary. Today: new iOS 19 leaks, iPad Fold on track for 2026, HomePad status update, and a special 20th anniversary iPhone Pro design. Here are this week’s Apple rumors. Revealing new iOS 19 leaks Credit: Jon Prosser’s Front Page Tech This week Jon Prosser published a new video that, if accurate, provides our best look yet into iOS 19’s rumored new design. Highlights include more rounded icons that are still squircles, search bars at the bottom of apps, new tab bar designs, glassy elements throughout, and more. Prosser even says iOS 19 will have an iPhone 17 Pro-exclusive Camera app feature. My takeaways If Prosser’s leaks turn out to be an accurate portrayal of some of iOS 19’s changes, I think Apple is definitely on the right track. A big redesign is a risky move, and Prosser’s mockups show Apple demonstrating care and balance with its design choices. It doesn’t seem to be making as extreme of changes as, for example, iOS 18’s Photos app did. But Apple also seems to be infusing enough new elements in iOS 19 that the iPhone software should feel fresh. So far, I’m optimistic. Reporting from Mark Gurman has pinned Apple’s upcoming 18.8-inch foldable iPad for a launch in 2028 or later. But this week analyst Jeff Pu reiterated his previous claim that Apple will launch the iPad Fold in late 2026 instead, alongside its first iPhone Fold. My takeaways I’m not entirely sure what to make of this report. If Gurman says 2028 or later, then I find it hard to believe we could see the iPad Fold next year. No doubt, Apple could make an especially big show of launching iPhone Fold and iPad Fold at the same time. And I hope it does so. I’m just wondering if Pu’s information might be outdated. ‘Bold’ new iPhone Pro design for 20th anniversary Over the weekend, Mark Gurman reported that Apple is planning a “bold new Pro model that makes more extensive use of glass.” This is part of Apple’s plans to celebrate the iPhone’s 20th anniversary. No other details are yet available, and there’s even uncertainty over whether the device is next year’s iPhone 18 Pro or 2027’s iPhone 19 Pro. My takeaways There’s not a lot to go off here. What does using more glass mean? But as far as timing goes, I’m inclined to think this anniversary iPhone Pro is coming in 2026, not 2027. In his report, Gurman paired the iPhone Pro’s mention with the iPhone Fold which is coming next year. He has also previously said 2026 may bring ‘another new iPhone design.’ Finally, it makes sense to honor the iPhone’s 20th with a device that launches shortly before the iPhone announcement anniversary rather than many months after. That way, Apple can sell the new iPhone throughout the product’s entire 20th year. Originally expected to be in users’ hands by this point, Apple’s ‘HomePad’ smart home display now may get punted to 2026. Mark Gurman says the company “is considering a delay until 2026, when [new] Siri features are expected to land.” My takeaways I’m very torn on this report. On one hand, from everything we’ve heard about the HomePad, Siri’s upgrades don’t necessarily seem essential to its usefulness. Sure they’ll make it a better product, but I’d love to get my hands on some HomePads even with the current Siri. I understand, though, if Apple wants to make more of an impact with HomePad when it launches as part of a renewed smart home push. You only get one chance at a first impression. And I’m sure the company remembers early HomePod reviews fixating on Siri’s inability to set multiple timers. Debuting HomePad at the same time as Siri’s big AI upgrades could provide a lot of momentum for the product, and the new and improved Siri overall.

When Donald Trump first ran for president in 2016, he promised his voters that he would run the government like a business: draining the swamp of corrupt bureaucrats, leveraging tax loopholes to keep money flowing, and keeping operations "under budget and ahead of schedule."That's a bad enough idea for the federal government as a whole — as we saw when the US lost 3 million jobs over Trump's first term — but an especially horrifying thought when applied to a law enforcement agency. Yet that's exactly what Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) acting director Todd Lyons envisions for the future of deportations in the United States.Speaking at the Border Security Expo earlier this week, Lyons bellowed that "we need to get better at treating this like a business," specifically, "like [Amazon] Prime, but with human beings.”His goal for the agency, Lyons said, is to see caravans of trucks hauling off immigrants at an industrial scale, reminiscent of the e-commerce giant's roving crews of "delivery service partners," who don't actually work for Amazon.Lyons' rhetoric matched that of numerous speakers who told the crowd of military-industrial complex delegates that the Trump administration "is depending on the private sector to implement its mass deportation agenda," the Arizona Mirror reported. "We need to buy more beds, we need more airplane flights and I know a lot of you are here for that reason," said Tom Homan, Trump's "border czar."In addition to streamlining the task of rounding people up, Lyons noted his dream of incorporating AI into the immigration system in order to "free up bedspace" and "fill up airplanes" — basically insinuating, along with Homan, that the goal is to simply ship human beings out of the US as fast as possible, due process be damned.If there's a more mechanized horror show than the one we already have, it's pretty hard to imagine. Like each of his predecessors, Trump's ICE is furthering the industrialization of immigration enforcement in the US by partnering with Silicon Valley to deploy AI surveillance tech, invoking the Alien Enemies Act to expedite deportations, and outsourcing detention to brutal sites like Guantanamo or the El Salvador's Terrorism Confinement Center.The sheer scale harkens back to the German government under Adolf Hitler, which gradually learned to industrialize the Holocaust by partnering with private companies like IBM, which provided punch cards and routed trains for the Third Reich.For ICE, Amazon isn't just a model to aspire toward, but a valued partner. Eerily, a 2020 report by Mijente found that Amazon was the key player in the "Cloud Industrial Complex," providing ICE and other law enforcement agencies with biometric data storage and case management systems, enabling mass surveillance, detentions and deportations. A recent investigation uncovered that Amazon was providing cloud computing capacity to US Customs and Border Control, confirming its continued role in the automation of the US migration system.If Lyons gets his way, it'll mean huge payouts for companies that get their hands dirty — and even more suffering for those seeking asylum on US soil.More on immigration: A Peek Into Trump's AI Border DystopiaShare This Article

Apr 10, 2025Ravie LakshmananCyber Espionage / Malware The Russia-linked threat actor known as Gamaredon (aka Shuckworm) has been attributed to a cyber attack targeting a foreign military mission based in Ukraine with an aim to deliver an updated version of a known malware called GammaSteel. The group targeted the military mission of a Western country, per the Symantec Threat Hunter team, with first signs of the malicious activity detected on February 26, 2025. "The initial infection vector used by the attackers appears to have been an infected removable drive," the Broadcom-owned threat intelligence division said in a report shared with The Hacker News. The attack started with the creation of a Windows Registry value under the UserAssist key, followed by launching "mshta.exe" using "explorer.exe" to initiate a multi-stage infection chain and launch two files. The first file, named "NTUSER.DAT.TMContainer00000000000000000001.regtrans-ms," is used to establish communications with a command-and-control (C2) server that's obtained by reaching out to specific URLs associated with legitimate services like Teletype, Telegram, and Telegraph, among others. The second file in question, "NTUSER.DAT.TMContainer00000000000000000002.regtrans-ms," is designed to infect any removable drives and network drives by creating shortcut files for every folder to execute the malicious "mshta.exe" command and hide it. Subsequently on March 1, 2025, the script was executed to contact a C2 server, exfiltrate system metadata, and receive, in return, a Base64-encoded payload, which is then used to run a PowerShell command engineered to download an obfuscated new version of the same script. The script, for its part, connects to a hard-coded C2 server to fetch two more PowerShell scripts, the first of which is a reconnaissance utility capable of capturing screenshots, run systeminfo command, get details of security software running on the host, enumerate files and folders in Desktop, and list running processes. The second PowerShell script is an improved version of GammaSteel, a known information stealer that's capable of exfiltrating files from a victim based on an extension allowlist from the Desktop and Documents folders. "This attack does mark something of an increase in sophistication for Shuckworm, which appears to be less skilled than other Russian actors, though it compensates for this with its relentless focus on targets in Ukraine," Symantec said. "While the group does not appear to have access to the same skill set as some other Russian groups, Shuckworm does now appear to be trying to compensate for this by continually making minor modifications to the code it uses, adding obfuscation, and leveraging legitimate web services, all to try lower the risk of detection."

If you’ve been within 20 feet of a big box store lately, it’s pretty obvious that Easter is just around the corner.And because of that, you’ve likely encountered one of the most mind-boggling hoaxes you can imagine — and it has to do with (of all things) carrots and rabbits.Bunnies and Carrots MythCanvaloading...There’s a good chance you’ve seen chocolate bunnies, stuffed rabbits, or even greeting cards with cartoon bunnies munching carrots, but a video by author Jason K. Largan circulating on social media explains that this isn’t even true.The Whole ‘Rabbits Love Carrots’ Thing Is a Total LieIn addition to rabbits loving Trix, it’s been a staple of modern lore that they love a good carrot. In fact, if you had a pet rabbit as a kid (or many, as is bound to happen) you probably fed your cute bunnikins a healthy supply of carrots. Turns out, according to Vets Now, carrots are terrible for rabbits — they’re high in sugar and can actually be harmful to their health. They don't even eat them in the wild.What?!Enter Bugs Bunny: The Real Reason This Myth ExistsSo why do we all think that rabbits love carrots? You can thank everyone's favorite wisecracking, fast-talking, and totally unflappable animated "wascally wabbit" — Bugs Bunny.In the 1941 short 'The Wabbit Who Came to Supper,' Bugs Bunny sings 'Oh carrots are divine, you get a dozen for a dime, it's magic.'You probably assumed that Bugs Bunny always loved carrots.READ MORE: Can You Identify These Popular Family Pets?You wouldn’t see him without one in his hand, while asking, “What's up, Doc?” with his mouth full. But get this: he wasn't eating because he liked them. He was making fun of a scene from 1934’s It Happened One Night, a phenomenally popular film that came out prior to the launch of Bugs Bunny's character in the Merrie Melodies shorts. In the scene, legendary actor Clark Gable stands by a fence and exaggeratedly eats a carrot while having a conversation with co-star Claudette Colbert’s character.You can watch the “carrot chomping” scene from It Happened One Night below:How influential was this movie and Clark Gable’s character? So influential that animators used the gag as inspiration for Bugs Bunny’s speech style — and his iconic devotion to carrots.And here’s where it gets really strange: while Gable’s character influenced Bugs Bunny, the popularity of Bugs Bunny ended up shaping how the world sees rabbits, even though the whole rabbit-and-carrot thing is total fiction. Even today, it’s hard to imagine an Easter Bunny or cartoon rabbit on a greeting card not holding a carrot.31 Terrifying Easter Bunny Photos That Will Have You Hiding Instead of Eggs This YearEvery Easter, we are reminded there's no good way to dress up a human to look like a bunny that people would allow in their homes while their children are asleep.Gallery Credit: Rob CarrollREAD MORE: Awesome ’80s Candies We Were Totally Obsessed WithEvery Movie Theater Candy, Ranked From Worst to BestFiled Under: Looney TunesCategories: Longform, TV News

April 10, 20254 min readWhy Trump Axed a Bedrock U.S. Climate ProgramThe dismemberment of the U.S. Global Change Research Program was outlined in Project 2025 as a way to elevate the “benefits” of climate change when fighting regulations in courtBy Scott Waldman & E&E News U.S. President Donald Trump, listens to a question as he visits Chez What Furniture Store which was damaged during Hurricane Helene on September 30, 2024 in Valdosta, Georgia. Michael M. Santiago/Getty ImagesCLIMATEWIRE | The Trump administration is dismantling a 35-year-old effort to track global climate change that was used to shape regulations and policies across the government.Federal employees at the U.S. Global Change Research Program were removed from their positions Tuesday, and a government contract with ICF International, which has supported the National Climate Assessment for years, was severed, according to two former officials who were granted anonymity to avoid reprisals.The move marks a key step by the administration to undermine federal climate research as it rolls back environmental regulations and promotes additional fossil fuel production.On supporting science journalismIf you're enjoying this article, consider supporting our award-winning journalism by subscribing. By purchasing a subscription you are helping to ensure the future of impactful stories about the discoveries and ideas shaping our world today.The program was established by Congress in 1990 and signed into law by President George H.W. Bush. In addition to climate science, it focused on land productivity, water resources, fisheries, ecosystems and the atmosphere. Its most visible product was the National Climate Assessment, a Congress-mandated report that comes out every four years and is used to help shape environmental rules, legislation and infrastructure projects.Decades ago, the program identified how a depleted ozone layer was harming Americans, leading to regulations to address the issue.The next version of the National Climate Assessment is due late next year or in early 2027.The changes mirror the writings of Russ Vought, director of the White House Office of Management and Budget, who wants to eliminate the program so its work can't be used to bolster federal climate regulations in court battles.Vought wrote a chapter in Project 2025, the conservative blueprint that has been closely followed by President Donald Trump, in which he outlined how to “reshape the U.S. Global Change Research Program (USGCRP) and related climate change research programs.”The chapter spells out how the program could make it harder to enact pro-industry policy and fight court battles that challenge environmental regulations. The USGCRP would “be confined to a more limited advisory role,” he wrote.“USGCRP actions can frustrate successful litigation defense in ways that the career bureaucracy should not be permitted to control,” the chapter said.Under Vought’s proposal, OMB would help select researchers to produce a National Climate Assessment that relies on a small pool of scientists who question humanity’s contributions to climate change and give equal weight to industry-produced studies.An OMB spokesperson did not respond to a request for comment. Neither did ICF International, the contractor that supported the climate assessment.Vought has been aided by David Legates, who briefly served as the head of the USGCRP in the waning days of the first Trump administration. Legates was removed from his post after he attempted to publish research papers that questioned basic climate science.“Take a look at the U.S. Global Change Research Program, because that needs to be closed down, lock, stock and barrel,” Legates said recently on a podcast hosted by the Heartland Institute, a conservative advocacy group that spreads climate misinformation.Legates also said on the podcast that Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency had been “alerted” to the need to eliminate the program.White House officials have explored producing a version of the National Climate Assessment, or another type of scientific report, that highlights the “benefits” of global warming. That, in turn, could become part of an effort to challenge the 2009 endangerment finding, which required EPA to regulate greenhouse gases because they're harmful to human health. Legates has proposed creating a second body of alternative climate research that shows “carbon dioxide is not an evil gas.”The National Climate Assessment is considered the gold standard of climate science by both Republican and Democratic administrations, said Katharine Hayhoe, a climate scientist at Texas Tech University who has served as a lead author on multiple versions of the report.“If you care about transportation, or energy, or food, or health, or communities, or rural areas or Indigenous tribal nations — whatever it is you care about, it's got that chapter,” she said.“We need the information to actually factor into the decisions that will help us build a better and more resilient future,” she added.Shutting down the Global Change Research Program is going to “have a huge impact on our society in the long run,” said Don Wuebbles, an emeritus professor of atmospheric science at the University of Illinois who worked on all five of the previous National Climate Assessments.He pointed to the current flooding in Kentucky as an example of extreme weather that the assessment can help plan for. The program has warned the public that a warmer atmosphere holds more water vapor, which drives larger storms and flooding. Infrastructure could be built to withstand such risks, he said.“Adapting and being resilient, we could save a whole lot of money, billions of dollars, and so they're going to end lots of lives,” Wuebbles said.Reprinted from E&E News with permission from POLITICO, LLC.
