His plan, the star said several times, is to “get out of his shell” more. Those plans may be over almost immediately, however. Lengyel has just started settling into LA life, but is already talking about leaving, claiming he’s moving back to Texas once he finishes several projects.

Since its earliest days, the Portal line has been plagued by one major question: why? Not so much why did Facebook make it (for that I give you the following: $$$), but rather, why should people be interested, given Amazon and Google’s respective head starts in both the smart assistant and display categories?In addition to its integration with Facebook services, Portal’s original standout feature was smart panning, which used object detection to reframe its subjects. It was a clever addition -- if not necessarily enough to justify purchasing a Facebook-produced product over the competition. Since then, however, Google, Amazon and even Apple have introduced their own versions of the technology, removing Facebook’s edge.Image Credits: Brian HeaterWhile the Portal Go doesn’t address the larger question of why, it does once again showcase Facebook’s ability to think outside the smart screen box by adding portability to the mix. Honestly, it’s one of those things I’m surprised the competition hasn’t gotten on board with. Amazon discontinued its portable Bluetooth speaker,  » Read More

The Collegiate Chess League is officially past the halfway mark, and teams are starting to jock for playoff positions. With only 3 rounds remaining in the regular season, every point earned could be the difference between being eliminated or not. How to watch? Matches are broadcast live at Twitch.tv/collegiatechesleague with commentary by the league's commissioner, Joe Lee, with additional guests throughout the season. Playoffs will be broadcast on Chess.com's Twitch Channel. Division 1 Highlight UC Berkeley and Mizzou are perhaps the two strongest teams in the entire league, and they played again for the first time since last year's finals. On that occasion, Mizzou took home the gold after winning by a score of 11-5. However, Berkeley has come back stronger this season and was looking forward to taking revenge on the powerhouse team from Mizzou. And they did exactly just that in round 4 by taking down the Mizzou team by a score of 10.5-5.5. This was the first time Mizzou had lost a match since they lost to SLU in the finals of season 1. This strong performance from Berkeley proves they have a serious shot at winning the championship along with the $5,000 prize fund for first…

A lawsuit alleging that YouTube violated the Constitution's First Amendment by removing videos promoting the QAnon conspiracy theory has been thrown out by a federal judge.U.S. District Judge Beth Freeman dismissed the suit against YouTube parent company Google on Tuesday. The complaint was filed last year by a group of self-described "conservative content creators" who claimed that their rights were violated when YouTube suspended their accounts. The judge found that the plaintiffs failed to prove that Google, as a private company, was acting on behalf of the government—the only entity liable for First Amendment claims."Based on the inapplicability of any of the four state action tests outlined by the Supreme Court... the Court finds that Plaintiffs have failed to plead a proper First Amendment claim due to their failure to sufficiently allege that Defendants' conduct constituted state action," Freeman wrote in her decision.Freeman dismissed the First Amendment claim "with prejudice," meaning that the plaintiffs cannot not appeal the decision in federal court. She was not convinced by arguments that YouTube was forced to act on behalf of the government by members of Congress who "demanded that the unpopular speech dubbed 'misinformation,' and QAnon-related speech be limited and erased."Lawyers for the…

Member Article Friends Quest, the latest the company’s release for Snapchat, is a real-time competitive multi-player platform game where the player needs to pass a series of levels full of dangers and mysteries. Friends Quest is the third title Gismart released on Snapchat as a part of a multi-game partnership agreement signed earlier this year. Released on the 10th of September, over 4.8 million players have already played Friends Quest globally on Snapchat. Together with previous game releases, Color Galaxy and Crazy Run, Gismart games generated nearly ninety million players, with the fourth title in development. Friends Quest was developed using Snaps Play Canvas, a web-first 3D game engine where developers can build HTML 5 games collaboratively. “We view social platform games as a sustainable growing business for Gismart. With Snapchat, the chances of releasing a hit game are higher than in a hyper casual world today. For instance, Color Galaxy, our first title on Snapchat, is comparable with successful hyper-casual games both in terms of the number of players and the profit received. The game is still one of the most popular on the platform and continues to generate profit” said Lana Meisak, VP Business Development and Marketing at…
