This new Russian drone is literally a 12-gauge shotgun with wings
Military drones have existed for some time now, and while most of the time we imagine drones in wartime as surveillance tools or, in some cases, instruments used in precision strikes against an enemy force, Russia is developing drones that are essentially just guns with wings. If that sounds a bit silly, just wait until you see it in action.
In a new video demonstration, one such drone is shown carrying a 12-gauge semi-automatic shotgun, firing at airborne targets as it speeds along above the heads of its handlers. The drone which, as Tom’s Guide notes, is being developed by the Russian state-owned weapons manufacturer Almaz-Antey, is capable of some remarkable feats.

Huawei’s P30 Pro low-light camera feature has to be magic
While mobile photography has improved by leaps and bounds over the past few years, delivering quality shots in low-light environments has proven to be one of the more challenging frontiers to conquer. Interestingly enough, some of the more impressive gains we’ve seen when it comes to low-light photography hasn’t come from Apple but from the Android side.
Most notably, Google has managed to pull off some incredible low-light improvements solely via software. If you recall, Night Sight mode on Pixel phones uses advanced software to deliver surprisingly crisp and vibrant photos in environments with little surrounding light. And for as impressive as what we’ve seen from Google, the new P30 Pro from Huawei takes low-light photography to an entirely new level.

New ‘Avengers: Endgame’ toys confirm some of the biggest spoilers we’ve seen
Less than four weeks from today, Avengers: Endgame will finally hit theaters around the world and bring us what will undoubtedly be an epic conclusion to Phase 3 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Avengers: Infinity War ended with what may very well be the greatest cliffhanger in any movie from our generation, and people are dying to see how the Avengers will respond after Thanos completed his life’s mission and wiped out half of all life in the known universe with a single snap of his fingers. Will the remaining heroes finally defeat the mad Titan? Will they find a way to travel back in time and resurrect their fallen comrades as well as everyone else who turned to dust when Thanos used the Infinity Gauntlet? Only the actors and production team involved with making Avengers: Endgame know for certain, but a flurry of leaks and spoilers have given us a pretty good idea of what to expect.
We know that there is going to be some serious heartbreak in Avengers 4. In fact, someone who worked on the movie accidentally confirmed that at least one main character will die at some point in the movie. We also recently got confirmation in the second Endgame trailer that many of the remaining heroes will travel to the Quantum Realm, which will likely play a huge role in helping the Avengers triumph over Thanos. How do we know? Because the trailer shows the Avengers marching in new Quantum suits just like the one Hank Pym wore to travel to the Realm in Ant-Man and the Wasp. Now, thanks to a big leak from one of Marvel Studios’ partners, several other spoilers we’ve seen recently have been proven to be genuine. It should go without saying at this point, but note that some major Avengers: Endgame spoilers follow below, so don’t read any further if you want to avoid them.

Apple insider claims 2019 iPhones will have two-way wireless charging
All of the major smartphone vendors around the world do their best to one-up the competition year in and year out, and this year, it’s Apple’s turn to play catch-up. Samsung’s latest phones feature a variety of bleeding-edge upgrades, including 5G connectivity, quad rear cameras, Infinity-O displays, and two-way wireless charging. Apple will no doubt bring some of these features to its next flagship phones, but at least one has been all but confirmed by the always reliable Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo this week in an investor note.
According to Kuo, Apple will bring two-way wireless charging (also known as bilateral or reverse charging) to its next iPhone models, expected to launch this fall. Two-way wireless charging will let the iPhone charge other devices, such as the new AirPods wireless charging case, and all three models are said to have this ability.

Watch Tesla’s new ‘Sentry Mode’ catch a woman on video keying a Model 3
Tesla last month introduced a new security-oriented feature dubbed Sentry Mode. As the name subtly implies, the new feature enables Tesla owners to record 360 degree video of their car when a serious incident or attempted theft occurs. The car’s camera’s aren’t on continuously, it’s worth noting, but spring into action when a threat of some sort is detected.
Recently, Sentry Mode managed to film a woman who, with no apparent rhyme or reason, decided to key the outside of a Tesla Model 3. As evidenced by the video below, the woman in question — who has two kids with her, mind you — tries to subtly damage a Model 3 by scratching the outside door panel with her keys. Close-up shots of the video make it overwhelmingly clear that she knew exactly what she was doing and acting with malicious intent.

This new app makes finding a movie on Netflix like swiping through Tinder
Services like Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon Prime video are fantastic. Once upon a time, you were at the mercy of network and cable television channels when it came to watching TV. If you wanted to actually pick something to watch, you get to head over to your local video store and rent DVDs or Blu-rays. Those days are thankfully long gone, and the aforementioned streaming services have massive catalogs of content to choose from. Of course, everyone knows all that content can actually be a double-edged sword. Sometimes there are so many choices that it becomes overwhelming and you don’t know what to watch, so you end up just rewatching something you’ve already seen.
There are tons of different apps out there that aim to make it easier for people to find things to watch on various streaming services. Some work better than others, but there’s a new one that just launched and it takes an entirely different approach to movie recommendations: It makes finding movies on Netflix, Hulu, or Amazon Prime Video like finding a date on Tinder.
