Apple’s first professionally directed short ‘immersive’ movie Submerged is an okay romp that will leave you wanting more.

I don’t like submarines. The idea of being trapped, several hundred feet underwater, in a narrow, creaking death trap? No thanks. I already knew that going into a screening of Submerged, the first scripted short film shot in Apple Immersive Video for the Vision Pro. Now that I’ve seen it, I’m triply sure. Written and directed by Oscar winner Edward Berger, Submerged takes place inside a WWII submarine that’s under attack. It follows the crew as they try to escape a sinking submarine. I, however, was seated comfortably in 2024 on a couch at Apple’s demo space in Manhattan. There weren’t any other theatergoers because I was going to strap the theater to my face. It was a little weird. At least, until the film got going. Then, I, too, was...

Porsche is recalling thousands of its Taycan electric vehicles over a possible short circuit risk that could cause a fire. The recall affects 27,527 Taycans built between October 21st, 2019, and February 1st, 2024, according to the NHTSA safety recall report. The problem has been narrowed down to a cell block module in the LG Chem-produced batteries used in the Taycan. However, Porsche doesn’t actually know which cars have the problem and says it can’t get the analytics to check: This recall (ARB6/ARB7) applies to a vehicle population for which Porsche currently has no positive knowledge that data anomalies exist in the high-voltage battery modules... Even if Porsche currently has no positive knowledge that data anomalies exist, Porsche...

A major IV fluid supplier has temporarily lost its North Carolina facility due to severe flooding from Hurricane Helene, and hospitals everywhere are feeling the crunch.

Sometimes, an app’s icon just doesn’t look right on your homescreen. For example, let’s say — just for the sake of argument — that the icon for a social networking app was switched from a pretty blue bird to a rather stark “X.” Could you change that icon? The answer is yes — it’s doable using Apple’s built-in Shortcuts app. You actually won’t be replacing the app’s official icon. Rather, you’ll be creating a separate shortcut that leads to the app. It’s a tedious and time-consuming process, but in the end, you can have a fully customized iPhone homescreen. Here’s how you do it:

Captain Nemo is one of 19th-century French novelist Jules Verne's most captivating fictional characters, appearing in Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea (1870) and The Mysterious Island (1875). Prime Video is bringing us a 10-episode series exploring Nemo's origin story, loosely based on the former, called Nautilus, premiering in a couple of weeks. The official trailer just dropped, and it has all the swashbuckling, deep sea diving adventures, and exotic sea creatures one would expect from a classic Verne tale—including that infamous giant squid and a plucky romantic interest for good measure. (Minor spoilers for the novels below.) In Verne's novels, Nemo is a mysterious figure also known as Prince Dakkar, who lost his kingdom and his family in the Indian Rebellion of 1857. He devotes himself to science and builds an electrically powered submersible ship called the Nautilus, salvaging gold bullion from shipwrecks to fund his travels, occasionally coming to the aid of people in need (a pearl diver under a shark attack or castaways in need of rescue). He is well-read, has a Western education, and is fluent in several languages, as well as being a gifted engineer. And he appreciates the fine arts. Read full article
