Everything worth knowing in tech today, November 18, 2020. Give your school support staff a big shoutout for National Education Support Professionals Day. ⏰ Today's Big Stories... in 30 Seconds Today We Watched, Read, and Listened to (so you don’t have to): 513 articles, 9 podcasts, 21 press releases, 591 tweets, and 8 YouTube videos 1. Twitter Introduces Stories-Like Fleets Twitter apparently decided to release a new Instagram- and Snapchat-style stories feature, Fleets, rather than clean up its white supremacy problem, but that's capitalism for you. You do you, Twitter. 2. Google Unleashes New, Faster Chrome If you're tired of Chrome taking forever to load and hogging all your battery power, Google's ready to help. The company just announced a Chrome update that it claims will be faster to start, faster to load pages, and use less battery. Yes, please, we would like some of that. 3. Expect Xbox Series X/S Shortages Until April 2021 If you're still trying to get your hands on a new Xbox Series X or S console, you may have a bit of a wait. Microsoft's CFO told guests at a virtual conference that shortages are likely to continue through March. That's kind of a bummer for anyone still trying to get one for the holidays. 🦑 Go Deeper Is your smartwatch sharing too much of your personal health data? That's a question Sascha Brodsky attempts to answer in this Lifewire-style deep dive. 🎱 By the Numbers 800-pound gorilla Data: Statcounter The numbers have changed a little since we last took a look at the browser market share in March, but mostly just to add Edge and Samsung Internet to the mix. Chrome is still the beast to beat. 🔥 Today's Hot Deal
Looking to save $500 on a massive 4K TV? Look no further than this delightful 86-inch LG UHD set. Seriously, don't sleep on this one. Don't Miss This Deal🤓 Nerd Out "Sorry, fossil fuel-lovers." -Rob LeFebvre, Senior News Editor Solar energy is now the cheapest per-watt energy source in the world, according to a new report from the International Energy Agency. Suck it, fossil fuels. (Share on Twitter) 💎 You Know You Want It It's seriously kinda dumb... Image: BudLight Yeah, this is ridiculous, but this Bud Light-branded gaming console with a built-in projector (and six games, including Tekken 7 and Soulcalibur VI) is something you may secretly want. Sadly, it's hard to find and super pricey, but whatever. We still want it. 🚀 Facing the Future Beam it to me, Scotty This is making the rounds lately, and for good reason. Imagine getting full stereo sound for music, movies, and podcasts without having to wear headphones, and without disturbing others. That's the future promise of this new "sound beaming" tech, and we're pretty excited for it, too. 🗞 Extra! Extra! We've got you covered with the best in daily tech news!
