The supply and demand problem in the Pokémon TCG market is still ongoing. Generally, this issue inflates the MSRP of products from certain sets, but discounts in this market are still popping up here and there. On Jan. 12, the Lugia ex and Latias ex Premium Collection, a hot buy right now, is now only $119.95 at Amazon.

Here's what you're getting:

• Five Destined Rivals booster packs

• Five Mega Evolution booster packs

• Special stamped Lugia ex promo card

• Special stamped Latias ex promo card

• Oversized fun Lugia card

Granted, this collection has been cheaper in the past, but the ever-shrinking quantity from its limited supply has been driving the prices up. That’s especially true of the included Destined Rivals packs — a hit expansion from May 2025 with restocks that have been rarer than the newer Mega Evolution expansion.

TCGPlayer, the dedicated trading card selling platform that’s home to some fantastic deals in the Pokémon, Magic: The Gathering, and One Piece spaces, only has one listing available for $277.99 with a jaw-dropping $200 shipping cost included. The Lugia ex and Latias ex Premium Collection is an Amazon retailer exclusive, so it’s less likely you’ll find stock elsewhere.

With Pokémon’s supply issues not ending anytime soon, and with the Pokémon Company’s sights firmly set on new expansions for 2026 like Perfect Order, we don't expect to see a lot of price drops on premium collections like this. If you want more Destined Rivals packs or the limited Latias ex and Lugia ex promo cards, this is probably going to be as good as it gets for now.

In the meantime, you can get over $10 off the Pokémon TCG’s Mega Evolution Phantasmal Flames Booster Bundle. If you’re hunting more of the Mega Evolution set, you can grab the Mega Lucario & Mega Gardevoir Elite Trainer Boxes at around market price at Amazon.

Golden Globes host Nikki Glaser kicked off the awards ceremony with a self-aware monologue tonight, nodding at current news events that are driving pretty much everyone to distraction.

"Yes, the Golden Globes: without a doubt, the most important thing that's happening in the world right now," said Glaser. "I cannot believe the amount of star power we have in this room tonight. It's insane. There are so many A-listers. And by A-listers, I do mean people who are on A-list that has been heavily redacted."

Glaser also jokingly announced a few Golden Globe winners for non-existent categories, awarding Best Editing to the U.S. Justice Department and Most Editing to CBS News.

"CBS News: America's newest place to see BS news," Glaser quipped.

That isn't to say Glaser didn't dedicate plenty of time to roasting the Golden Globes' attendees as well. This included a dig at One Battle After Another actor Leonardo DiCaprio for his infamous habit only dating women under 30 — apparently the only information Glaser could dig up about him.

"I tried not to [make that joke], but like, we don't know anything else about you, man," Glaser said, addressing DiCaprio from the stage. "Like, there's nothing else. Like, open up. I'm serious! I looked. I searched. The most in-depth interview you've ever given was in Teen Beat magazine in 1991. Is your favourite food still pasta, pasta, and more pasta?"

If you like playing daily word games like Wordle, then Hurdle is a great game to add to your routine.

There are five rounds to the game. The first round sees you trying to guess the word, with correct, misplaced, and incorrect letters shown in each guess. If you guess the correct answer, it'll take you to the next hurdle, providing the answer to the last hurdle as your first guess. This can give you several clues or none, depending on the words. For the final hurdle, every correct answer from previous hurdles is shown, with correct and misplaced letters clearly shown.

An important note is that the number of times a letter is highlighted from previous guesses does necessarily indicate the number of times that letter appears in the final hurdle.

If you find yourself stuck at any step of today's Hurdle, don't worry! We have you covered.

The Moon is in its Waning Crescent phase, meaning it's less than half visible. Soon, there won't be anything to see at all. But for now, there's still enough illuminated that we can see some features on its surface. Keep reading to find out what you can spot.

What is today’s Moon phase?

As of Monday, Jan. 12, the Moon phase is Waning Crescent. According to NASA's Daily Moon Guide, 33% of the Moon will be lit up tonight.

Tonight, with just your naked eye you'll should be able to see the Oceanus Procellarum Plateau and the Kepler Crater. If you have binoculars, you'll also be able to see the Grimaldi Basin and the Mare Humorum. If you're lucky enough to have a telescope in your kit, this will help you see all this plus the Apollo 12 landing spot and the Schiller Crater.

When is the next Full Moon?

The next Full Moon will be on Feb. 1. The last full moon was on Jan. 3.

What are Moon phases?

According to NASA, the Moon takes about 29.5 days to complete a full orbit, a period known as the lunar cycle. As it moves around Earth, the Moon goes through a series of eight distinct phases. The same side of the Moon always faces our planet, but the sunlight hitting it changes depending on its position in orbit. This is why the Moon can appear fully lit, partially lit, or completely dark at different times. The eight phases that make up the lunar cycle are:

New Moon - The Moon is between Earth and the sun, so the side we see is dark (in other words, it's invisible to the eye).

Waxing Crescent - A small sliver of light appears on the right side (Northern Hemisphere).

First Quarter - Half of the Moon is lit on the right side. It looks like a half-Moon.

Waxing Gibbous - More than half is lit up, but it’s not quite full yet.

Full Moon - The whole face of the Moon is illuminated and fully visible.

Waning Gibbous - The Moon starts losing light on the right side. (Northern Hemisphere)

Third Quarter (or Last Quarter) - Another half-Moon, but now the left side is lit.

Waning Crescent - A thin sliver of light remains on the left side before going dark again.

Industry's Season 4 premiere dives headfirst into the debate around online age verification, with the London-set series introducing an Online Safety Bill that mirrors the UK's own age-verification law.

SEE ALSO: 'Industry' Season 4 review: HBO's criminally underrated drama thrills in most ambitious season yet

The law instates age checks on sites with explicit content so that minors can't use the sites. Ways of confirming a user's age include facial recognition and banking information. Similar laws are going into effect in the United States and around the world, but experts have sounded the alarm on potential security and privacy concerns.

Age verification takes center stage in Industry's Season 4 premiere.

Despite art mimicking reality on Industry, age verification was less of the hot-button issue it is now when the show's co-creators Mickey Down and Konrad Kay began working on the season. While earlier, failed iterations of age verification had been floated in the UK in 2019, then in 2022, age verification only officially went into effect in July of 2025.

"We actually ended up writing about it and filming it before it became a thing in the UK, without any sort of consultant inside scoop on it," Kay told Mashable in a video interview alongside Down.

SEE ALSO: Here's why 'Industry's Trump nod is so important

That prescience winds up working in Industry's favor. Season 4's emphasis on age verification proves the show's ability to keep its finger on the pulse, even in the fast-moving digital age.

In Industry's Season 4 premiere, titled "PayPal of Bukkake," the Online Safety Bill is the catalyst for a major shift at fintech company Tender. Once a payment processor for porn websites, including Industry's OnlyFans analog Siren, Tender plans to shift away from adult content in order to gain respectability.

This isn't the first time Industry has explored the world of porn. Introduced in Season 3, Pierpoint grad Sweetpea Golightly (Miriam Petche) has a side hustle on OnlyFans. With Season 4, Down and Kay didn't want to leave that thread dangling. In fact, they wanted to complicate their portrayal of her sex work.

"In Season 3, the picture is quite empowering for Sweetpea, and in Season 4, it's depicted a little bit more like exploitation," Down told Mashable. "I think that ambiguity is interesting, and I'm interested to see how audiences take to it. It was a 50-50 split in the writers' room, but we were like, 'Are we telling a story where it's about a character who felt empowered to do something at a young age, who's now feeling exploited by her own decision? What does that mean about her relationship with her own femininity and for female empowerment?'"

Kay added: "The intersection of pornography, of cell phones, the commoditization of selfhood... All of that stuff feels very 2025 capitalism to us, so we ended up leaning into it all."

On top of building more character moments for Sweetpea, Industry Season 4's focus on porn and age verification also allowed Down and Kay to further integrate the UK government into the season, especially as age verification has been a "political football" for quite some time, as Down put it.

"It was difficult to understand on what side of the political aisle people were on about it, because you had some right-wing commentary about why it was a great thing, and you had some right-wing commentary about how it was a terrible thing, because it was really about free speech and freedom of expression," Down told Mashable.

In Industry, though, the Labour government is the one pushing the bill, which soon gets them embroiled with Tender.

"It felt like a great opening gambit for the Labour Party in Season 4," Down said. "The Labour Party now feels like an ideologically complex and compromised institution to me, because they've come into the government with really good, highfalutin ideas, but they are backed with the same kind of hedge fund money and the same sort of media superstructure behind them that the Conservative government was, and that's kind of what the season's about."

While it plays a big role in the premiere, much of Industry's discussion of porn and age verification takes a backseat to the meat of the season: What, exactly, is going on with Tender?

The bait and switch is something Industry has pulled before, introducing one big subject in a premiere before segueing into something new and unexpected.

"With Season 3, you come into it thinking it's going to be about Lumi's IPO, and it becomes about Pierpoint and its attitude towards its own destruction," Down said. "Then [in Season 4], you think it's going to be about the Online Safety Bill and pornography, and all that stuff continued in a thematic way, but it really was a jumping-off point to a story about the payment processor."

There, Down and Kay weave a tale of yes, porn and digital privacy, but also of money's role in government, of shady business dealings, and the rise of authoritarianism. It's a dizzying ride, but Industry never loses control.

"It all feels like part of a capitalist puzzle," Kay said. "Because these things, if you drill into them enough, there is overlap between all of them."

New episodes of Industry Season 4 premiere Sundays at 9 p.m. ET on HBO and HBO Max.

The NYT Connections puzzle today is not too difficult to solve if you don't break an oath.

Connections is the one of the most popular New York Times word games that's captured the public's attention. The game is all about finding the "common threads between words." And just like Wordle, Connections resets after midnight and each new set of words gets trickier and trickier—so we've served up some hints and tips to get you over the hurdle.

If you just want to be told today's puzzle, you can jump to the end of this article for today's Connections solution. But if you'd rather solve it yourself, keep reading for some clues, tips, and strategies to assist you.

The NYT's latest daily word game has become a social media hit. The Times credits associate puzzle editor Wyna Liu with helping to create the new word game and bringing it to the publications' Games section. Connections can be played on both web browsers and mobile devices and require players to group four words that share something in common.

This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.

Each puzzle features 16 words and each grouping of words is split into four categories. These sets could comprise of anything from book titles, software, country names, etc. Even though multiple words will seem like they fit together, there's only one correct answer.

If a player gets all four words in a set correct, those words are removed from the board. Guess wrong and it counts as a mistake—players get up to four mistakes until the game ends.

This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.

Players can also rearrange and shuffle the board to make spotting connections easier. Additionally, each group is color-coded with yellow being the easiest, followed by green, blue, and purple. Like Wordle, you can share the results with your friends on social media.

Strands, the New York Times' elevated word-search game, requires the player to perform a twist on the classic word search. Words can be made from linked letters — up, down, left, right, or diagonal, but words can also change direction, resulting in quirky shapes and patterns. Every single letter in the grid will be part of an answer. There's always a theme linking every solution, along with the "spangram," a special, word or phrase that sums up that day's theme, and spans the entire grid horizontally or vertically.

By providing an opaque hint and not providing the word list, Strands creates a brain-teasing game that takes a little longer to play than its other games, like Wordle and Connections.

Originally created by engineer Josh Wardle as a gift for his partner, Wordle rapidly spread to become an international phenomenon, with thousands of people around the globe playing every day. Alternate Wordle versions created by fans also sprang up, including battle royale Squabble, music identification game Heardle, and variations like Dordle and Quordle that make you guess multiple words at once. 

Wordle eventually became so popular that it was purchased by the New York Times, and TikTok creators even livestream themselves playing.

HBO's Industry has never shied away from current events, from Season 2's handling of the COVID-19 pandemic to Season 4's centering of online age verification in the UK. However, in its Season 4 premiere, Industry goes one step further by bringing in a real-life political figure: President Donald Trump.

SEE ALSO: 'Industry' Season 4 review: HBO's criminally underrated drama thrills in most ambitious season yet

The show's version of Trump, played by a Trump look-alike, makes a brief appearance during a scene in which a now-retired Eric Tao (Ken Leung) hits the golf course. He and his fellow millionaire retirees spot Trump from afar, sporting his usual red MAGA hat, and exchange a wave with him.

"Has 47 ever allowed anyone to play through?" one of Eric's friends wonders.

"Not in this lifetime," another responds.

It's a surprising allusion, the ultimate move in Industry's portrayal of a world of wealth, access, and power that the vast majority of its viewers will never see. But more than that, it's a crucial character moment for Eric, indicating just where life has taken him post-Pierpoint.

SEE ALSO: 2026 TV preview: All the TV shows you need to know, and where to stream them

For starters, the routine of the golf course is a far cry from the high-stakes, high-pressure, high-speed trading floor Eric used to lord over. It's stagnant, whereas Eric would rather monitor the market's every change — the last thing on his golfing companions' mind.

"He's surrounded by these older white guys who have made loads of money. They have this passive wealth that is constantly compounding, so they just play golf and go to the same restaurant over and over again," Industry co-creator Mickey Down told Mashable over Zoom. "Eric is trying to convince himself that this is the good life and that he isn't feeling the pull of the old life that he experienced in the first three seasons."

Trump's presence on the golf course does actually call back to Eric's "old life." Not his time as a leader in Industry's first three seasons, but his earliest days on the trading floor.

In Industry's second season, the series explores Eric's relationship with his own mentor, a man named Newman. The audience never meets him before his death, but in one key scene in Season 2, episode 4, Eric spends time in his New York office, which has been left untouched since his passing. On the desk is a MAGA hat, a symbol that speaks volumes not just about Newman's ideologies, but also about what his relationship as a white man in a person of power may have been like with his Asian subordinate.

"You go under [Eric's] hood a little bit more in Season 2, you realize that he has this background where he [experienced] some sort of racial abuse from the trading floor in the '90s," Down explained.

Eric's Season 4 interaction with Trump, even if it's from afar, feels like "the apogee" of Eric's complicated relationship with his mentor, according to Down. He recalled adding a reminder of Newman's racism into the premiere script to truly drive the moment home.

"In the script [Industry co-creator Konrad Kay and I] wrote, [Eric's] mentor was this person. Now he's here, waving at number 47," Down said. "It felt like a real moment of, 'Where the fuck am I? How did I get here? How did a kid like me, from where I am from, end up waving at the president, who represents all these things?'"

New episodes of Industry Season 4 premiere Sundays at 9 p.m. ET on HBO and HBO Max.

Walmart is building out its on-demand drone delivery service to an additional 150 stores across the country in another major partnership with Wing.

SEE ALSO: NASA preparing for its first crewed Moon mission in 50 years

The drone company is owned by Google parent Alphabet and first partnered with Walmart in 2023. Since then, Wing has made an aggressive push to service additional retail locations and scale its operations across the country. With the new drone offerings, the company will operate its autonomous delivery drones in 270 locations and service about 10 percent of the U.S. population, or around 40 million Americans, TechCrunch reported. The company has referred to it as the "largest residential drone delivery service."

Building off of infrastructure in the Dallas-Forth Worth and Atlanta areas, customers will see drone delivery options roll out gradually throughout 2026 and into 2027, pushing into major metropolitan cities like Los Angeles, St. Louis, Cincinnati, and Miami.

In June, Walmart expanded its drone delivery service to five cities — Atlanta, Charlotte, Houston, Orlando, and Tampa — and more than 100 store locations, marking the first major retailer to scale drone delivery across five states and hundreds of locations. According to the company, Walmart has completed more than 150,000 successful drone deliveries since launch.

"Whether it’s a last-minute ingredient for dinner, a must-have charger for a phone, or a late-night essential for a busy family, the strong adoption we’ve seen confirms that this is the future of convenience,” said Greg Cathey, senior vice president of digital fulfillment transformation at Walmart, in a press release.

NASA is getting ready to finally send off the crew of the Artemis II, the first crewed expedition to the Moon since the Apollo missions ended in 1972.

Following several test rounds and small delays, the team is now readying to transport its Space Launch System (SLS) rocket and Orion spacecraft to the Kennedy Space Center. NASA says it's preparing for a potential wet dress rehearsal at the end of January and a launch as early as Feb. 6, the agency wrote in a Jan. 9 blog post. "It is another step toward new U.S.-crewed missions to the Moon’s surface, leading to a sustained presence on the Moon that will help the agency prepare to send the first astronauts — Americans — to Mars," said NASA.

SEE ALSO: Who is the sick astronaut on the ISS? What we know.

The Artemis II mission was originally slated for Nov. 2024, with astronaut Reid Wiseman appointed as commander of a 4-person crew aboard the agency's brand new space vehicle. The scheduled date was pushed back to April 2026, however, and now appears to be ramping up for an even earlier 2026 blast off.

Members of the team include NASA’s Wiseman, Victor Glover, and Christina Koch, and Canadian Space Agency astronaut Jeremy Hansen. The crew will be testing the ship's life support systems over a 10-day period and travel more than 4,000 miles to the far side of the moon.

This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.

The mission, if successful, may push the U.S. space agency closer toward winning the modern space race, a decades-long effort to get astronauts back on the lunar surface and prime the space body for further scientific discovery, surface mining, and a potential interplanetary existence. The U.S. is up against China's National Space Administration, which has landed multiple crew-less missions on the moon and is shooting for a human touchdown in 2030, and India's Space Research Organization, which became the first agency to get a moon lander to the space rock's south pole. Private sector efforts, including Elon Musk's SpaceX, have also advanced missions toward the Moon, Mars, and beyond.

Grok access has been cut off for users in Indonesia and Malaysia following concerns that the xAI chatbot's safeguards were ineffective.

Both countries issued temporary suspensions intended to remain in effect until xAI implements safeguards that comply with regulators' demands.

"The government views the practice of non-consensual sexual deepfakes as a serious violation of human rights, dignity, and the security of citizens in the digital space," wrote Indonesia’s minister of communications and digital affairs Meutya Hafid in a statement released Saturday. Indonesia has sweeping internet censorship laws governing content deemed "obscene."

SEE ALSO: Character.AI settles lawsuits related to teen deaths

Malaysia had recently launched an investigation into "misuse of artificial intelligence (AI) tools on the X platform," part of a wave of intervening actions taken by regulators. That investigation followed on the heels of an Indian IT ministry notice directing X to take immediate action on Grok's alleged misuse. The notice alluded to potential violations of the country's Information Technology Act.

French authorities in the Paris prosecutor's office and other foreign governments, including the UK and an EU probe, have announced similar investigations into xAI's technology and its regulation under relevant online safety laws. Australian prime minister Anthony Albanese also issued a statement concerning Grok's deepfake problems, reiterating the country's decision to ban social media for users under the age of 16. In addition, the U.S. based National Center on Sexual Exploitation (NCOSE) has called on the Department of Justice and Federal Trade Commission to investigate X under existing child sexual abuse material (CSAM) laws and the recent Take It Down Act.

UK technology secretary Liz Kendall recently said she would support blocking X outright, should the UK's Office of Communications (Ofcom) conclude the platform violates the Online Safety Act. Kendall said she expects a decision to made in the next few days.

Elon Musk, who has previously said users should face consequences for "uploading illegal content" on X, responded to the threats of a ban by accusing the UK government of being overly eager to censor the company. In a post on X, Musk wrote: "They just want to suppress free speech." Musk also shared several X posts claiming that Grok is being targeted by government officials.

A recent Wired investigation found that the desktop and app versions of Grok Imagine were able to produce sexually violent and graphic material, depictions of celebrities in sexual scenarios, and potential AI-generated CSAM, despite built-in safeguards. The chatbot has a now well-documented track record of producing sexualized deepfakes, including at the request of users who ask Grok to non-consensually "undress" individuals in publicly-uploaded photos.

Wild Card Weekend continues what has already been something of a wild season. The New England Patriots certainly want to make this a playoffs to remember. At one time in time the Patriots were almost guaranteed to appear in the playoffs, but they now qualify for the first time since 2021, posting an impressive record of 14-3.

As AFC East champions and No. 2 seed, they'll host the Los Angeles Chargers in this Sunday Night Football playoffs showdown. The Chargers finished runner-up in AFC West, nabbing a Wild Card berth with their 11-6 record.

The Chargers will have their work cut out and will need to rely on their robust defense. The Patriots' QB Drake Maye has had a superb season and New England are coming off a three-game winning streak. Both teams are sure to give it their all and as they battle for a place in the Divisional Round. All which means this game is one to watch closely.

TL;DR: Live stream 49ers vs. Eagles for free on TVNZ+. Access this free live stream from anywhere in the world with ExpressVPN.

It's one of the big questions of the NFL playoffs as Wild Card Weekend continues: Can the Philadelphia Eagles follow the Kansas City Chiefs and make it two-for-two? In other words, can they win back-to-back Super Bowls? With the Chiefs out of the playoffs picture, the Eagles don't have their regular Super Bowls rivals to worry about but it's not a sure thing. It's been a patchy season for the reigning Super Bowl Champions, particularly on offense.

The Eagles clinched the NFC East title with 11-6 but ended the season with a loss to the Commanders. The No. 3 seed now face the San Francisco 49ers, the No. 6 seed, in the Wild Card Round. The 49ers are always chasing that Quest for Six — that elusive sixth Super Bowl win — but their season has also seen some ups and downs.

That said, San Francisco won more games than the Eagles this season, with a 12-5 record, despite finishing third against tough competition in NFC West. But that's all in the past. Postseason has kicked off and both the Eagles and 49ers are looking forward, with a spot in the Divisional Rounds in their sights.

It's certainly been a dramatic NFL season. With teams such as the mighty Kansas City Chiefs crashing out, missing the playoffs for the first time in 11 years, Wild Card Weekend seems all the more unpredictable.

All eyes are on games such as this one, as the Buffalo Bills, the AFC No. 6 seed, face perennial underdogs and No. 3 seed the Jacksonville Jaguars on the road in the second day of postseason action. This could prove one of the most intriguing matchups of the weekend.

Entering their seventh straight playoffs, the Bills have arguably underperformed while the Jaguars had a hugely exciting season under first year coach Liam Coen. Their 13-4 record certainly whipped up excitement for fans. Even as a higher seeded team, the Jaguars are still aiming to prove themselves on the national stage and make a postseason statement.

If you like playing daily word games like Wordle, then Hurdle is a great game to add to your routine.

There are five rounds to the game. The first round sees you trying to guess the word, with correct, misplaced, and incorrect letters shown in each guess. If you guess the correct answer, it'll take you to the next hurdle, providing the answer to the last hurdle as your first guess. This can give you several clues or none, depending on the words. For the final hurdle, every correct answer from previous hurdles is shown, with correct and misplaced letters clearly shown.

An important note is that the number of times a letter is highlighted from previous guesses does necessarily indicate the number of times that letter appears in the final hurdle.

If you find yourself stuck at any step of today's Hurdle, don't worry! We have you covered.
