Early last month, we reminded our readers that there are hundreds of secret categories on Netflix that the company uses internally to better organize its ever-growing content library. The regular Netflix interface on computers and in mobile or smart TV apps only gives users access to the top-level categories, such as “Dramas.” But what most people don’t realize is that there are nearly 20 hidden subcategories buried within the Dramas category, such as “Crime Dramas,” “Teen Dramas,” and “Political Dramas.”

Using these hidden categories lets you narrow down your search so it’s easier to find content you’re in the mood to watch, and we showed you an awesome free plugin that makes browsing all of Netflix’s secret categories much easier. But now that you know how to access them, which hidden categories should you check out first?

Almost all smartphone makers out there have “all-screen” phones in stores this year, as we’ve reached a smartphone design peak. We want pocketable devices with displays that extend from corner to corner, and we’re nearly there. It won’t be long until smartphones with a real all-screen design come out, the kind that doesn’t make any compromises. But once the notches, the camera holes, and the slide-out mechanisms are gone, smartphone makers will have fewer ways of increasing the size of the display without also increasing the size of the device. Foldable displays will offer users a tablet-sized smartphone that can still be placed in a pocket. A more exciting way of improving the display experience is projecting holograms out of the display. And Samsung is interested in both of these technologies.

In just a matter of weeks, we saw a few Android flagship smartphones come out sporting 10GB of RAM, which seems like overkill for mobile devices. Chinese smartphone makers Xiaomi and OnePlus have such devices, including the Xiaomi Black Shark and Mi Mix 3, and the OnePlus 6T McLaren Edition. But forget all about that for a second, as the first smartphone with 12GB of RAM was just unveiled. Spoiler alert, it also comes from China, and you can’t get it right now.

An African grey parrot has made headlines recently for inadvertently making orders via his owner’s Amazon Echo. Originally reported via The Times of London, the parrot — whose name is Rocco — would mindlessly activate Alexa and have the virtual assistant tell jokes and play music. Rocco even tried to order a few items from Amazon, but the owner wisely had set up controls to prevent unauthorized purchases.

What makes the somewhat lighthearted story even more amusing is that Rocco previously had a stint living at the UK’s National Animal Welfare Trust (NAWT) but was kicked out — yes, kicked out — because he was swearing too much. As the old adage says, truth is stranger than fiction. Rocco was subsequently placed under the care of a NAWT employee named Marion Wischnewski whereupon he quickly started activating Alexa.

Of all the planets in our Solar System, you’d have to agree that Saturn is the most immediately recognizable. With its iconic rings, you can pick Saturn out in an instant, but if NASA scientists are right, we might actually be watching the planet’s most eye-catching feature disappearing right in front of us.

In a new video, NASA Goddard explains that while we’ve always seen Saturn with its bold rings, the rings themselves are actually fairly young. Estimated to be less than 100 million years old, they’re a “new” feature of the planet, and they won’t be sticking around for long.

If I were to choose between Touch ID and Face ID, I’d go for Apple’s 3D facial recognition system without thinking twice. It turns out that I don’t miss Touch ID at all, and that was one of my initial worries last year when Apple revealed that the iPhone X would not have fingerprint-sensing capabilities.

I’ve been using Face ID for more than a year now, with hardly any problems, and I’m still rocking an iPhone X. But it turns out that Apple hasn’t entirely given up the idea of combining Touch ID and Face ID on the iPhone.

NASA’s Juno spacecraft has delivered the best glimpses of Jupiter ever, and it’s just getting started. In a new blog post, NASA celebrates the halfway point in Juno’s long mission by offering a brief recap of some of the more interesting discoveries the craft has made over the years while offering a glimpse at what the future might hold.

The orbiter, which was launched way back in mid 2011, has now completed 16 flybys of Jupiter, gradually mapping the planet and providing a number of insights into how the planet works. Juno has helped scientists understand more about Jupiter’s thick atmosphere and how deep its massive storms stretch into the planet, but there’s still plenty more to learn.
