A Quiet Place: Day One ushers audiences back into the horror franchise, where extraterrestrial monsters who hunt by sound chase down any human who makes a peep. For the first two installments, writer/director/actor John Krasinski centered on rural parents, desperately and determinedly protecting their defenseless children against ravenous extraterrestrial monsters. But in this prequel, new to the franchise helmer/scribe Michael Sarnoski offers a pet parent named Sam (Lupita Nyong'o) and her cuddly cat, Frodo.

As their Lord of the Rings names tease, they are tightly connected as they make their own dangerous quest through a Manhattan terrorized by "Death Angels," who chase any sound like it's a dinner bell. And this has some animal-lovers nervous.

"Does the cat die?" has become a common question since the first trailers revealed Sam's feline sidekick. Sure, the first two movies put the Abbott children — including a newborn — in danger. But that doesn't mean cat people are ready to witness a fleeing feline be gobbled up like so much little brother Beau. (He just wanted to play with a rocket!)  

So, for those of you that absolutely need to know before you go, we'll answer the biggest question about this new horror offering:

Deep breaths, animal lovers: Frodo the cat lives — as do the native rodents scurrying around Manhattan. It seems the Death Angels aren't much for snacking. Or perhaps they're targeting humans not for nourishment so much as taking down the dominant species for swift conquering? But that's a topic for another time. For now, rest easy-ish knowing that for all those who will fall prey to A Quiet Place: Day One's Death Angels, sweet, fluffy Frodo will keep her nine lives intact.

A Quiet Place: Day One is now playing in theaters.

Adobe has rolled out a new addition to its Lightroom photo editing platform called Generative Remove. It leverages Firefly, Adobe's generative AI model, to enable novice and hobbyist photo editors alike to select and erase elements from pictures, where the replacement content seamlessly fits in with its surroundings.

With the recent arrival of Generative Remove, three major reasons emerge that make Lightroom a powerful photo editing suite for non-pros:

Easy clean-up

With Generative Remove, Lightroom users can simply mouse or swipe over objects, people — whatever is interfering with their otherwise well-composed photo, and the tool will automatically recognize the thing that doesn’t belong and wipe it from the image. You don’t need to define the element by outlining it. Generative Remove just knows what you’re pointing out and how to get rid of it. 

Plus, the AI engine can generate ultra-realistic backgrounds or mimic complex patterns like paisley based on a photo’s visual information. 

Studio-level lens effects

Lightroom comes with Lens Blur, a tool for adding professional-grade lens effects to your photos in post-production. With this feature, you can achieve the soft focus and macro-lens look and feel associated with studio shooting with the output of any camera or smartphone. 

There are also seven presets to choose from, giving novices an easy way to apply these dreamy effects to their photos.

Adobe knows that so much of today's photography is captured and viewed by smartphones. The company has built out a truly mobile-optimized UI for its Lightroom app so that creators can manage their photo production from start to finish, all in the mobile app. This includes Generative Remove. 

If you're ready to try your hand at the latest AI-enhanced Lightroom, Adobe is offering a seven-day free trial. Get started here.

In May, Reddit announced it would allow OpenAI to train its models on Reddit content for a price. Now, according to The Verge, Reddit will block most automated bots from accessing, learning from, and profiting from its data without a similar licensing agreement.

Reddit plans to do this by updating its robots.txt file, the "basic social contract of the web" that determines how web crawlers can access the site. Most nascent AI companies (including, at one point, OpenAI) train their models on content they've scraped from across the web without considering copyright or the Terms of Service of individual sites.

SEE ALSO: Reddit's traffic is way up – but why? It's Google.

Per The Verge's Alex Heath, search engines like Google got away with this form of scraping thanks to the "give-and-take" of Google sending traffic back to individual sites in exchange for the ability to crawl them for information. Now, AI companies are tipping the balance by taking that same information and providing it to users without sending them back to the sites the information came from.

Reddit's chief legal officer, Ben Lee, told The Verge that the parameters of robots.txt are not legally enforceable but that publicizing Reddit's intention to enforce its content policy is "a signal to those who don’t have an agreement with us that they shouldn’t be accessing Reddit data."

In a blog post about the change, Reddit noted that "good faith actors – like researchers and organizations... will continue to have access to Reddit content for non-commercial use." These include the Internet Archive, home to the Wayback Machine.

Instagram wants to be TikTok with Reels, and now TikTok wants to be Instagram with Whee.

Like Instagram, Whee allows users to post and edit photos and message other users. It launched earlier this month in some countries to little fanfare. According to TechCrunch, as of Tuesday, the app was only downloaded on 13,000 iOS devices and a little over 10,000 times on Android devices. It has yet to breach the Top Free Apps chart in Apple's App Store or become one of the Top 500 Social apps in the countries it's available in.

SEE ALSO: Here's how the TikTok ban will likely play out in the courts

The app has yet to launch in the U.S. So far, it's most popular in Malaysia, where it's been downloaded 2,400 times. TechCrunch also found that ByteDance, TikTok and Whee's parent company, has yet to advertise the app via Apple's Search Ads, which boosts apps' ranking in the App Store's search. ByteDance's strategy remains unclear.

Whee's launch is reminiscent of one of ByteDance's other ventures, Lemon8, a Pinterest-esque photo-sharing platform that got off to a slow start but now boasts millions of downloads.

The public first heard of TikTok's potential Instagram dupe, which was initially known as TikTok Photos, back in March.

Lemon8 launched in the middle of TikTok's battle against the potential ban in the U.S., and now that the ban is written into law, ByteDance pushed Whee forward. But the ban will likely take all ByteDance apps down with TikTok.

If Hawk Tuah Girl was hesitant about her sudden overnight fame, maybe things are starting to shift now that the cash is rolling in. The viral star, real name Hailey Welch, has reportedly begun making good money via merchandise.

Rolling Stone contacted Fathead Threads, a local Tennessee apparel brand working with Welch to sell shirts and hats. Jason Poteete from Fathead told Rolling Stone that they'd sold about 2,000 hats already, which, via back-of-the-napkin math, equates to roughly $65,000 in revenue. Welch reportedly gets an undisclosed percentage of sales, but it stands to reason she's made a decent chunk of change from the merch.

Tweet may have been deleted

In case you missed the mega-viral video, Hawk Tuah Girl first surfaced in a Tim & Dee TV video where she was asked to give a "move in bed that makes a man go crazy every time?"

She, quite funnily, answered: "Aw, you gotta give 'em that 'hawk tuah' and spit on that thang! You get me?" That has since become a big-time meme and clip over TikTok, X, and just about any other social media platform.

SEE ALSO: Who is the 'Hawk Tuah' girl, and what does it mean?

However, going viral does not always guarantee making money from it. With that in mind, Poteete wanted to assist Welch — who has not done any interviews in the wake of the viral clip — in monetizing her moment.

"Of course, she hasn't gotten a dime from the first viral video that went out," Poteete told Rolling Stone, while nothing he's known Welch for years. "Nobody was asking permission for her to do nothing, neither. I just wanted her to get some profit off of this deal."

Here's hoping Welch can squeeze every cent out of the video. Page Six reported that major talent agencies were in talks with Welch, which hopefully means more cash for the viral star.

The disruption affected mostly visitors with AT&T, T-Mobile and Verizon service, cutting them off data networks across the continent for 24 hours or more.

Another day, another newly discovered exploit. But this vulnerability has the potential to be a really big problem.

This week, Progress Software announced that it had discovered two new items for the common vulnerabilities and exposures (CVE) list of the enterprise product MOVEit Transfer, a popular way for businesses to securely transfer and exchange sensitive files and data. 

SEE ALSO: Two MIT students charged for exploiting Ethereum blockchain bug, stole $25 million in crypto

This most recent MOVEit vulnerability, known as CVE-2024-5806, allows hackers to bypass authentication protocols and access the potentially sensitive information being transferred.

While many readers may not be familiar with Progress Software or MOVEit, this vulnerability could result in serious consequences. As Ars Technica points out, a MOVEit vulnerability affected millions of people last year. Thousands of organizations, including the US Department of Energy and Shell, were compromised. The 2023 exploit's effects on the Canadian province of Ontario’s government birth registry alone left 3.4 million people compromised.

Currently, MOVEit is installed on as many as 2,700 networks globally. Bad actors, such as at least one ransomware gang, have already made attempts to exploit this most recent vulnerability, according to cybersecurity researchers with The Shadowserver Foundation and the security firm Censys.

Progress Software has since released a patch to close the exploit, which can be found here.

Prime Day 2024 is officially coming. We knew it would land sometime in July, but this week, the brand confirmed the sale will run July 16 and 17. Now that we all have it marked on our calendars, we're officially on the hunt for early deals. We know the bulk of discounts won't arrive until Prime Day starts, but that doesn't mean some hidden gems won't show up on TVs, laptops, and more.

We're tracking tablet deals. With the launch of new iPads from Apple just this year, we're staying laser focused on markdowns on the latest tech. Plus, we expect to see prices slashed on older generations of still good tech.

SEE ALSO: Prime Day 2024 is coming: Here are the best live deals to shop early

At the moment, the savings aren't huge, especially on iPads. However, because the latest iPad Air and iPad Pro are so new, we are still seeing them at their lowest prices ever. They've been at these prices since early June, so we're holding out to see even bigger savings come Prime Day.

We'll be updating our list of tablets on sale at Amazon throughout the weeks leading up to Prime Day and will keep you posted when Amazon makes the big switch to official early Prime Day deals. For now, deals with a strikeout were either sold out or no longer available at their best sale price when we last checked. Anything marked with a 🔥 has dropped to an all-time low price.

Plus, it's ready for your summer adventure with it's IP68 rating, making it one of the few water- and dust-resistant tablets. Take that, Apple.

The Beats Studio Pro are a great, affordable pick for anyone looking for an alternative to Apple's over-the-ear headphones. They offer warm, immersive sound with support for lossless audio, with three different profiles to choose from when listening to your favorite songs. Opt for either active noise cancelling or transparency mode to either block out the world or let the important things in, and get up to 40 hours of battery life with 10 minutes of juicing up granting you four more hours. This pair also has support for personalized spatial audio, so you can listen to music with 360-degree soundscapes to feel like you're actually at that concert you wish you'd gone to. At this price, they're absolutely worth grabbing, so get them while you can.

The Bose 700 headphones are our favorite pick when it comes to noise cancellation. They're excellent at what they do, with ten adjustable levels of active noise cancellation and transparency mode to make sure you can still hear what's going on around you. They offer some of the highest levels of customization when it comes to noise canceling, so if you're the type of listener who needs things your way instead of adapting to rigid settings that make listening feel like a chore, these headphones should do you well. Your ears will be satisfied – Mashable tech reporter Alex Perry can attest to that after testing the headphones on the bustling streets of New York City, and we think that's definitely something to be excited about.

The Apple AirPods Max are spendy, but they're worth the money if you can afford to shell out on these svelte lookers. Thanks to their Apple H1 chip, they sound fantastic, with equally great active noise cancellation that works great to keep outside sound out. They also offer spatial audio support with dynamic head tracking as well as Dolby Atmos support. But one of their greatest achievements are their ability to stay comfortable even during long wear sessions. You also get the added effect of everyone noticing what you're wearing – they're certainly status symbols. But what's important here is that they deliver as headphones, and if you want a great pair, they're even better when you can get them at a discount.

Have you ever tried packing for a relaxing vacation and realized those 12 books you plan to read pool-side won't fit into your luggage? While reading will forever be one of the best hobbies around, it can be cumbersome to tote around your current book, whether you're on vacation or commuting to work with an 800-page hard-back book. Save yourself some trouble and cash in today's deal at Amazon on one of the best e-readers available.

As of June 27, the Kindle Scribe Essentials Bundle (16GB, Basic Pen) is on sale for $271.97 at Amazon, down from the usual price of $439.97. That's a savings of $168 or a 38% discount. It also happens to be the lowest price we've ever seen at Amazon.

The Kindle Scribe Essentials Bundle includes a 16GB version of the e-reader, a leather folio cover, the Basic Pen, and a power adapter, so you'll be ready to roll with all necessary accessories.

The Kindle Scribe is a versatile e-reader, allowing you to not only read your favorite books but giving you the power to write and draw thanks to the included pen. If you prefer to take notes in the margins of books, the Scribe could be the best Kindle out there for you. It also allow you to write on documents, create lists, write notes, or draw your best digital sketch yet.

SEE ALSO: A 3-month membership to Kindle Unlimited is now free for Prime members

Thanks to its 10.2-inch screen size, the Scribe can display two book pages at once with landscape orientation, making the experience more similar to reading a physical book. It's also glare-free, so reading in the sun won't be an issue. Amazon also mentions the Scribe gets the longest battery life out of any Kindle, getting weeks of use on a single charge. Plus, the pen doesn't require a battery so you'll never need to set it down to re-charge.

In Mashable's review of every Kindle device, the team rated the Scribe as the best model for those who like to take notes. "If you haven't been able to get on board with e-readers because you like to jot down notes in the margins of your books, the Amazon Kindle Scribe just might convert you," says the review.

If you love reading and taking notes, today's deal on the Kindle Scribe could be a great investment when it comes to the enjoyment category of life. At the lowest price we've ever seen, the bundle also comes with a folio case and a charging adapter, making this a one-stop-shopping experience.

"All [Rabbit] R1 responses ever given can be downloaded," according to an R1 research group called Rabbitude.

Rabbit and its R1 AI device has already been dunked on for being nothing more than an Android app wrapped up in a hardware gadget, but something much more alarming is afoot.

SEE ALSO: I tested Rabbit R1 vs. Meta AI: The winning AI assistant will surprise you

The report (via The Verge) said Rabbitude gained access to the codebase and discovered API keys were hardwired into its code. That means anyone with these keys could "read every response every r1 has ever given, including ones containing personal information, brick all r1s, alter the responses of all r1s [and] replace every r1’s voice." The investigation discovered that these API keys are what provided access to ElevenLabs and Azure for text-to-speech generation, Yelp for reviews, and Google Maps for location data.

What's worse, Rabbitude said it identified the security flaw on May 16 and that Rabbit was aware of the issue. But "the API keys continue to be valid as of writing," on June 25. Continued access to the API keys means bad actors could potentially access sensitive data, crash the entire rabbitOS system, and add custom text.

The following day (June 26) Rabbit issued a statement on its Discord server saying that the four API keys Rabbitude identified have been revoked. "As of right now, we are not aware of any customer data being leaked or any compromise to our systems," said the company.

But the plot thickens. Rabbitude also found a fifth API key that was hardwired in the code, but not publicly disclosed in its investigation. This one is called sendgrid, which provides access to all emails to the r1.rabbit.tech subdomain. At the time Rabbitude published its follow-up report, the sendgrid API key was still active. Access to this API key meant Rabbitude could access additional user information within the R1's spreadsheet functions and even send emails from rabbit.tech email addresses.

If you were already skeptical of the R1's half-baked capabilities that Mashable Tech Editor Kimberly Gedeon blamed on "rushed innovation, disillusionment, and impetuousness" in her review, this might be your sign that Rabbit is at best, not worth the money, and at worst, incapable of keeping your data private.

Prime Day 2024 finally released its July dates, and with them come an avalanche of competing sales. Target is among the rival retailers to launch their summer sales with the return of Circle Week, coming July 7 through 13. While other retailers require a paid membership to shop the deals, Target's Circle membership is free and gains you full access to all the deals. Target claims this is their "biggest sale of the season", so we're locked in to see if that's actually true, especially when it's competing against the behemoth of Amazon.

Ahead of the sale, Target has released some sneak peak deals. The focus of Circle Week is deals for the whole family with markdowns on toys, kitchen, home, and food and beverage. Here's what we know so far.

When is Target Circle Week?

Target Circle Week kicks off July 7 at 2 a.m. CT and runs through July 13 on Target.com. While most of the deals will arrive on July 7, Target is bringing back deals of the day — some of which you can shop in-person, including a Starbucks Buy a Beverage, Get One 50% off.

If you like to compare prices like us, these deals fall inconveniently right before Prime Day, which runs July 16th and 17th.

Can you shop Target Circle Week without being a Target Circle member?

As the name implies, Circle Week is for Circle members. The good news? Unlike Prime or Walmart+ membership, Circle Membership is totally free. It's more of a rewards program than a paid service, however, members get to enjoy daily Circle deals and cash back bonuses. So if you're not a member of any retailers membership program, Target Circle is the one to join — it quite literally costs nothing.

In addition to the base membership program, Target also offers Target Circle 360, a paid membership program that gets your orders to you faster. 360 members enjoy unlimited same day delivery and free two-day shipping, similar to the delivery benefits of Amazon Prime.

Best deal to shop during Target Circle week?

Prime Day deals span every category, and we expect to see the same during Target Circle Week. However, according to the company's press release, there will be a focus on toys, kitchen, and back-to-school items.

Plus, there are opportunities to spend and save. When Circle members spend $50 on home care products, they'll receive a $15 Target gift card, and when they spend $40 on select products from Ulta Beauty at Target, they'll receive a $10 gift card.

Additionally, expect to see 50% off toys and up to 40% on kitchen and floor care tools. While the deals aren't officially coming until July 7, here are the deals you can start shopping now.

Ahead of Prime Day, Amazon has dropped the price on the Kindle Scribe Essentials Bundle by 38% — that knocks it down to a record-low $314.97. The bundle includes the Kindle Scribe (32GB), premium pen, black leather folio cover, and a power adapter. While it's not a perfect device, we do appreciate the Scribe's ability to bridge the gap between traditional reading and e-reading by including a stylus to mark up whatever you're reading. The premium pen's virtual eraser on the back and customizable shortcut button on the side make it easy to scribble notes, doodle, or mark up books to your heart's content.

Regularly $189.99, Prime members can snag it on sale for only $109.99. That's a record-low for this model.

It's kind of a dire time for social clip sharing features on game consoles, but the Steam Deck soldiers on.

Valve revealed on Wednesday that Steam is getting a native app called Steam Game Recording, which does exactly what you think it does: records videos of your gameplay and allows you to edit and share them online. It's available on Steam on PC, of course, but Valve clarified it's also verified to work on Steam Deck.

To be perfectly clear, this feature is in beta at the moment. You'll have to go to the Settings menu, find the Interface section, and go to Beta Participation to opt into the Game Recording beta. Once you do, though, you should be good to go.

Valve's take on game recording on Steam Deck seems like a solid effort, at least if the website advertising all the features is to be believed. You can set it to record when you press a hotkey or constantly record in the background while you play. Clips can be exported to a PC or the Steam mobile app for sharing purposes, and a replay feature will let you watch what just happened to you in a game so you can hopefully avoid it a second time.

The Steam Deck is already one of the best gaming devices out there, and Valve just keeps making it a little better.

In Mashable's review of every Kindle e-reader, the team found the Scribe to the best option for taking notes. The Scribe gets bragging rights as the largest Kindle, with a 10.2-inch screen with Amazon's Paperwhite display which is designed to look similar to an actual book page.

Summer is no time to dote on household chores. Pass of the task of vacuuming to the Shark AI Ultra robot vacuum which is on sale at Amazon for just $299.99. That's a 50% discount off the usual price of $599. The Shark AI Ultra comes with a charging dock that also serves as a self-emptying base, holing up to 60 days worth of debris. That means you can schedule the robot to vacuum the entire house everyday, and you won't have to think about it for two months. This model uses Shark's Matrix Clean Navigation technology which takes several passes over areas that need deeper cleaning, instead of just a single pass that happens with most robot vacuums. Thanks to its suction power and self-cleaning brush roll, this could be a great robot vacuum for homes with pets.

Echo Dot vs. Echo Pop: Specs Credit: Chart: SaVanna Shoemaker / Mashable Design: We like color options

The Echo Dot and the Echo Pop are nearly the same size, but while the Echo Dot is round the Echo Pop has a flat face. It basically looks like a cross-section of the Dot.

The Echo Dot also comes in three fairly muted colors (gray, white, and blue), but the Echo Pop is available in some, well, poppier colors (lavender and teal in addition to gray and white).

Overall, I like the appearance of the Echo Pop a little better. The brighter colors can add a cute splash of color to a corner shelf, or the Pop can serve as a more discreet Alexa assistant than the Echo Dot (which is fairly universally recognized as a smart home device).

Both have a modern, sleek appearance that can easily complement or blend into any style of decor.

Winner: Echo Pop

Setup and ease of use

Amazon has made setting up these devices extremely easy. You’ll need the Alexa app on your phone, and it walks you through setup step-by-step. The app is also where you’ll connect other apps like Spotify or Audible to stream them on your Echo devices using Alexa voice commands.

SEE ALSO: Echo vs. Echo Dot: Which Amazon device should you buy?

The devices themselves are also very straightforward. The physical buttons on them allow you to mute and unmute the microphone and adjust the volume. Everything else is done through voice commands or through the Alexa app. I had no problems setting up either device and both were highly responsive to my “Hey, Alexa’s.”

Winner: Tie

Sound quality is almost identical

Amazon describes the Echo Pop’s sound as a “full sound” that’s a good fit for bedrooms and small spaces and the Echo Dot’s sound as a “bigger vibrant sound” for any room.

In my side-by-side comparisons of the Echo Dot and the Echo Pop, I couldn’t detect a difference in sound quality between the two devices. Both devices were excellent for playing background music in my office or listening to podcasts while doing housework, providing fuller, clearer sound and increased volume compared to my smartphone.

The Echo Pop does have an ever-so-slightly larger speaker. However, the Dot’s round shape can help it to fill a space with sound no matter where it’s placed.

Winner: Echo Dot

Alexa integration and smart home connectivity

Both the Echo Dot and the Echo Pop integrate with Alexa through the Amazon Alexa app. You can use Alexa to ask questions, check the weather, set timers and alarms, and open connected apps (like music or streaming apps including Spotify, Pandora, Audible, and Amazon Music). 

Personally, I have always found Alexa devices most handy in the office and in the kitchen. They provide a hands-free, screen-free way to set timers (for productivity or pizza) or to stream audio. A centrally-located Echo device is also a great way to free up space in your brain. I’ve used Alexa to remind me to water my plants, put birthday cards in the mail, and check the water level in the pool at regular intervals when filling it up for the season.

However, the Echo Dot edges out the Echo Pop here in two key ways: temperature sensing and motion detection. So your Echo Dot can execute Alexa Routines that involve temperature or motion, while the Echo Pop can’t. Some examples: 

• The Echo Dot can adjust your smart thermostat settings when it reaches a certain temperature

• The Echo Dot can turn on smart lightbulbs when it senses motion in a room

Winner: Echo Dot

Considering additional features

The Echo Dot and the Echo Pop can both serve as WiFi extenders if you have an existing Amazon Eero network, adding up to 1,000 square feet of additional WiFi coverage.

However, once again the Echo Dot edges out the Echo Pop in terms of extra features. As mentioned above, the Dot comes equipped with motion and temperature detection capabilities. 

Also, the Echo Dot with Clock ($59.99) comes with all the features of the 5th gen Echo Dot and a simple LED display that can show the time, temperature, and timer countdowns. The Echo Dot With Clock served me well for a time as my alarm clock, but it wouldn’t have earned that spot on my nightstand without the LED display so I could glance at the time.

Winner: Echo Dot

Internet 'It' girls Rachel Sennott and Reneé Rapp sat down together for Instagram's new Close Friends Only video podcast.

SEE ALSO: Instagram teens are regularly recommended sexual and explicit videos, new report finds

In addition to dishing on their upcoming projects, the Bottoms actor/co-writer and Mean Girls star talk about their friendship and flirting techniques with their characteristic wit and chaos. In the preview for the episode below, Sennott asks Rapp, "What about me are you most intrigued by?" (you'll have to watch to find out), and Rapp shares her favorite of her lyrics.

Close Friends Only is Instagram's first podcast, which centers guests' conversations around the platform. In this ep, Sennott brings up her finsta and the duo share that they first connected on the app. The podcast is produced by the women-led creative agency SUN-NY SIDE UP and The Unwell Network, the Gen Z media network founded by Call Her Daddy's Alex Cooper.

Sennott and Rapp are only the second guests on the podcast. The first episode featured Doja Cat and Ice Spice. Their episode was roughly 22 minutes long, so you can expect a similar length from Sennott and Rapp.

Instagram's podcast venture makes us wonder what pie it will stick its fingers in next.
