The Galaxy S10 should hit stores at some point in early March, according to recent reports, which gives Samsung’s biggest Android rival some two months to sell phones featuring almost the same Galaxy S10 design. A brand new flagship phone just launched, sporting top specs in addition to that brand new screen design, as well as an affordable price.

2018 was certainly a great year for TV. We binged as much of it as ever, services like Netflix kept cranking out new series for us to get addicted to and more people than ever are cutting the cord completely — ditching expensive traditional cable TV packages and going all-in on Internet TV.

Which may explain why Google says its Android TV service is on something of a hot streak at the moment, growing to the point that an executive says the service now has “tens of millions” of users outside the US.

NASA’s New Horizons spacecraft has been speeding through space since early 2006 and it’s about to make what might be its most interesting flyby to date. After speeding past Jupiter and Pluto in the 12 years since its launch, the probe is about to have a very close encounter with a mysterious object in the outer Solar System called Ultima Thule. As luck would have it, it’s going to meet its target on New Year’s Day, and it’s a pretty big deal for NASA.

As we approach the probe’s arrival at Ultima Thule, NASA is announcing its schedule of events related to the probe’s flyby. The big show will begin on the afternoon of Monday, December 31st, and it’ll kick off three days of news and briefings that will give us our best look yet at an extremely distant Solar System object.

With all the flack Tesla gets for its inability to consistently meet its stated production goals, it’s easy to overlook the fact that demand for the Model 3 has remained incredibly strong for more than two years now. And with Tesla finally getting a handle on production, Model 3 sales may be primed to explode in 2019.

Looking ahead to the next year, analyst Dan Ives believes that Model 3 demand remains robust and that consumers are growing more interested in the mass market EV as demand for bulkier cars like SUVs slows down. What’s more, Ives’ note relays that Tesla should see a nice boost in sales as the company continues to expand across Europe.

There are few franchises I miss more than the SSX snowboarding games. In fact, the SSX reboot was one of my favorite games of 2012, but I haven’t spent much time on the virtual slopes in the years since. That’s precisely why I was so excited to see that Ubisoft’s Steep would be coming to the PlayStation Plus free games collection next month. It may not be quite the same, but I’m looking forward to racing down snowy mountains again.

Sandbox action RPG Portal Knights is the other headliner this month, though I think I’m even more interested in the Zone of the Enders HD Collection, which you should absolutely try if you’ve never played them before. Amplitude is a pretty great inclusion too, and worth having on your PS3’s hard drive.

It’s only been about a week since three of the crew members aboard the International Space Station flew back down to Earth aboard Russia’s Soyuz spacecraft. Their vehicle, which was the same one that sprung a leak on a component that was ultimately jettisoned before reentry, held up just fine and the trio made it back to Earth just fine.

Astronaut Drew Feustel is no strange to space, and while he wasn’t part of the crew that returned to Earth last week he knows all about the struggles facing anyone who endures an extended stay in space. In a tweet welcoming home the crew, Feustel offers us an eye-opening look at what space explorers have to deal with after they come home.

An ASMR microphone, a custom perfume service and an auto-adjusting computer monitor stand that helps users with their posture are among eight projects Samsung announced today that it plans to show off in just a few weeks as part of CES 2019 in Las Vegas.

The projects are all fueled in some way by artificial intelligence and were developed via Samsung’s C-Lab (Creative Lab) program. As part of this announcement, Samsung says these C-Lab projects that will be revealed represent the biggest number of projects the lab has ever unveiled in a single show since making its CES debut in 2016. And doing this, the company says, will help it “refine the projects and prepare the prototypes that will eventually become finished products to take to market.”

More than 3,700 patients who went in for surgery at the HealthPlus Surgery Center in New Jersey may have been exposed to HIV, hepatitis B, and hepatitis C, according to a harrowing report from NBC News.

While no patients at the clinic have reported any worrisome symptoms to date, the New Jersey Department of Health is naturally advising all patients who visited the clinic between January of 2018 and September 7 of 2018 to get tested. As it should, HealthPlus Surgery Center said it will foot the bill for any testing costs.

YouTube’s newest gaming personality is funny, eccentric, weird and very famous. We’re talking, of course, about Jack Black, who also very much knows his memes — the banner for the new gaming-focused YouTube channel he’s launched, Jablinksi Games, is ‘Sakurai Kirby,” and the channel will apparently see the first episode from the actor uploaded on Friday.

Jack is working on this with his son, who will apparently handle all the behind-the-camera stuff. The description underneath a short clip Jack posted to the channel by way of introducing it promises “games, food and life,” so make of that what you will. “It’s gonna be bigger than Ninja. It’s gonna be bigger than PewDiePie,” Jack promises in that short clip about his channel, which had already racked up almost 380.000 subscribers at the time of this writing.

The holidays are a time of giving, and if you’re looking to give a homeless pet a new life, you probably won’t do much better than Sniffles. Found by Orange County Animal Services, Sniffles is a stray with a rather unique condition: he was born without a nose.

The pup gets along just fine without a sniffer and, while he does have a habit of snorting, it hasn’t affected his pleasant disposition. After going through an exam at a local vet in Florida, Sniffles was given a clean bill of health. Now, he needs a forever home, and the internet is falling all over itself to find him one.
