James Ennis has gone from subtlely suggesting the Lakers signing him on social media to outright begging. Earlier this summer, Ennis began liking tweets on Twitter suggesting he should sign with the Lakers. It was a very subtle approach, camouflaged by him liking tweets he return to the Magic as well. He then spent time liking and commenting on pictures from the Lakers on Instagram. Whether that directly led to him getting a reported workout with the team is unlikely, but it made his desires clear. However, Ennis — who is still unsigned — appears to be getting a bit more vocal. On Sunday during the fourth quarter of the Lakers fourth loss of the preseason and second to the Phoenix Suns, Ennis dropped the subtleties and facade and outright asked to be signed by the Lakers. I play defense sign me already lol— James Ennis (@JamesDa_Truth) October 11, 2021 Ennis, as mentioned, is still a free agent and the Lakers do still have an open roster spot. Trevor Ariza’s injury opens up a potential role for Ennis, a 6’7” forward, in the rotation. But the Lakers have maintained their desire to keep an open roster spot and that the…

Google Pixel Pass would be the latest subscription feature of the internet company if ever this speculation is true and would push forth once the Pixel 6 smartphone would release. It aims to incorporate all Google features into one subscription service to pay, and it includes the sale bundle of the latest flagship device of the company. Apple One, beware, as Google Pixel Pass is coming to take away the spot from you from all Apple needs and services in a single bundle. This may or may not include YouTube Premium, Google One, Google Play Pass, and other subscription services under the internet company's services.

DFree/Shutterstock Duff Goldman is known for his extraordinary and realistic cakes. Since Goldman made his television debut, the Charm City Cake owner has made a name for himself and his sweet creations on Food Network's "Ace of Cakes," constantly leaving fans inspired by his creativity. Goldman's cakes are pretty insane. And when the cake specialist isn't busy mentoring the next great baker on "Kids Baking Championship," Goldman is gushing over the latest addition to his family and sharing photos of his baby girl, Josephine, whom he welcomed in January of this year. He even shared his joy with his social media followers when he ribbed his daughter's "Aunt" Nancy Fuller over her sweet nickname.  Still, Goldman is true to his craft, and he clearly isn't afraid of a cake challenge, either. He shared with the Daily Beast that the cake that left him the most overwhelmed with pride is the R2-D2 cake he created for George Lucas. But it would be hard to judge his cakes without considering the "Harry Potter" inspired cake he made for the series' final film, the rollercoaster cake he created with King Dominion's Intimidator 305 in mind (via YouTube), or the five wedding cakes he baked for his own nuptials…

Last week, it was revealed that Twitch had suffered a massive data breach in which information about the platform was stolen. This contained data like Twitch’s source code, payout information to streamers, and a rather interesting tidbit of information, such as how Amazon could be looking to build its own Steam competitor.Steam, for those unfamiliar, is a digital storefront for games by Valve. It has become more or less the de facto platform to purchase video games online. According to a tweet by Twitter user @Sinoc229, as part of the data breach, it was discovered that Amazon could be working on their own version of Steam which they have cheekily codenamed “Vapor”. Grabbed Vapor, the codename for Amazon's Steam competitor. Seems to intigrate most of Twitch's features as well as a bunch of game specific support like fortnite and pubg.Also includes some Unity code for a game called Vapeworld, which I assume is some sort of VR chat thing. pic.twitter.com/4KeeEOspyQ — Sinoc (@Sinoc229) October 6, 2021It seems that Amazon is hoping to leverage Twitch’s user base because based on the findings, Vapor will apparently integrate a bunch of Twitch’s features into it, presumably livestreaming, and will also offer support for…

Instagram's long-form video format, IGTV, has been combined with feed videos to create Instagram Video. Here's what users can expect going forward. Instagram has merged IGTV with feed videos and created 'Instagram Video' in the process. IGTV previously allowed users to post a video between one minute and one hour, while videos posted directly to the feed were limited to 60 seconds. Here is everything that’s different under the Instagram Video name, including the new features.  First introduced in 2018, IGTV has its own dedicated app although Instagram has since added an IGTV button to the main Instagram app as well. Back in January of 2020, Instagram pulled the IGTV button from the home screen, with it ending up under the plus button on the user’s profile. While IGTV never really took off the way Instagram expected, other video formats have proven more successful. Instagram Stories offer users the opportunity to post quick videos that remain viewable for just twenty-four hours, while Instagram Reels is a popular TikTok alternative built into the Instagram app.  According to Facebook, IGTV has been combined with feed videos in order to make it easier for users to discover videos and create new content. The move also reflects how many creators are…
