The affordable Artline doubles as a design piece and comes close to outshining the reigning champion of art TVs, the Samsung Frame Pro.

Why This Deserves More Attention Than It Gets Credential leaks are one of the most common and preventable security incidents in software. Bots actively scan GitHub for newly pushed API keys, database URLs, and private credentials — and they find them within minutes of a commit going public. Rotating compromised credentials is painful, and in some cases the damage is done before you even realize what happened. This isn't just an enterprise problem. It happens on solo side projects, open-source repos, and internal tools at startups. And the root cause is almost always the same: someone treated secrets like regular configuration and didn't have a clear strategy for keeping them out of version control, logs, and error messages. The patterns in this guide aren't bureaucratic overhead. They're the minimum viable approach for any app that talks to a real database or a real API. What Environment Variables Actually Are An environment variable is a key-value pair that lives in a process's environment — a set of values the operating system makes available to any running program. Every process inherits the environment of the process that spawned it. In Node.js, you access them through process.env : const port = process . env . PORT ; const dbUrl = process . env . DATABASE_URL ; In Python: import os port = os . environ . get ( ' PORT ' ) db_url = os . environ . get ( ' DATABASE_URL ' ) The core idea — and the reason env vars are the standard approach — is that they decouple what the app does from where it runs . The same application code can point at a local development database or a production cluster. The code doesn't change; only the environment does. This is the heart of the 12-Factor App principle: store config in the environment, not in the code. The .env File: What It Is and What It Isn't In local development, you don't set environment variables by hand before every terminal session. Instead, you use a .env file — a plain text file at the root of your project with one key

Sorry Anker: JMGO now makes my favorite flagship portable projector. The N3 Ultimate is an excellent portable 4K projector that defeats moderate ambient light at severe placement angles and can rival more expensive home theater installations at night. After a few weeks of testing, I think the raw adaptability exhibited by the JMGO's N3 Ultimate […]

You can watch all ten episodes of the Among Us cartoon on Paramount+.

It should have been the final straw. The new power couple of editorial failure - Bari Weiss and Nick Bilton - had fired legendary 60 Minutes journalist Scott Pelley. Why? Because he dared to question the fact that CBS had installed sycophants in its top ranks. Instead of standing in solidarity, correspondents Lesley Stahl, Bill […]

When Quilty hit the industry trades earlier this year, the AI startup promised that its tool could accurately predict a film's success just by reading the script. When people actually got a chance to experiment with Quilty's product, though, they were left skeptical. Even with all the available data in the world, it predicted the […]

Dumpert is a Dutch video site I've watched for years, but there's never been an Apple TV app, so I built one. DumpertTV is an unofficial, open-source tvOS client. Here's how it's put together and a few things that were more interesting than I expected. Disclaimer up front: this project is not affiliated with Dumpert or DPG Media B.V. It's an independent app that uses the public Dumpert API. The stack Swift 6 with strict concurrency ( complete mode) across every target SwiftUI for all UI, tvOS 18+ XcodeGen so the .xcodeproj is generated from a project.yml and never committed CloudKit , GroupActivities (SharePlay), Vision , AVKit , Swift Testing One actor for the network, one source of truth for the UI The whole networking layer is an actor . That makes per-request state like ETags and retry bookkeeping thread-safe without a single lock: actor DumpertAPIClient { private var etags : [ URL : String ] = [:] func fetch < T : Decodable > ( _ endpoint : APIEndpoint ) async throws -> T { // Exponential backoff on 5xx + network errors; honours 304 Not Modified. try await fetchWithRetry ( endpoint , attempt : 0 ) } } The UI reads from a single @Observable @MainActor repository injected through the SwiftUI environment — no Combine, no view models competing over the same state: @Observable @MainActor final class VideoRepository { private(set) var hotshiz : [ MediaItem ] = [] let apiClient : APIClientProtocol // protocol-backed for testing } ContentView () . environment ( videoRepository ) Views just read repository.hotshiz ; updates flow automatically. With Swift 6's strict concurrency on, the compiler kept me honest about every actor hop. Things that were trickier than expected tvOS focus + a top tab bar. Getting a Netflix-style hero carousel to behave with the focus engine took real care. It also made automating screenshots interesting — scripted remote input doesn't reliably drive the simulator, so I added #if DEBUG launch-argument hooks to jump straight to any tab/category f

A video creator known as Doctor Spaghetti has scrutinized hours of Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives to get to the bottom of an explosive culinary conspiracy theory.

Season 3 of Silo premieres on July 3.

Amazon Prime members will be able to buy July 29 tickets for Spider-Man: Brand New Day.

Pat Casey and Josh Miller, the pair behind the Sonic the Hedgehog trilogy, are penning the script for the Streets of Rage movie.

Though Gen Z has developed a reputation for being so disinterested in sex that they don't even want to see it on TV, the popularity of series like Heated Rivalry and The Summer I Turned Pretty has made it very clear that more than a few young people do, in fact, like their entertainment a […]

Art TVs aren’t exactly known for being affordable, which is why Woot’s latest sale is notable. Now through June 26th, the retailer is discounting Samsung’s 2025 Frame TV and Hisense’s 2025 CanvasTV. The 65-inch CanvasTV is down to $779.99 ($520 off) — its best price of the year — while Samsung’s like-minded Frame TV is […]

Backrooms is a wild ride, and it's yet another example of how many great directors are coming from the internet

Season three of Amazon's Lord of the Rings show skips forward several years from the second season finale.

The NYT's word game has been pretty much everywhere else.

It's the best Mortal Kombat film yet.

It will cover events from Queen Victoria's death in 1901 until Princess Elizabeth's wedding.

The extremely British action RPG should translate well to an episodic format.

Zach Cregger's take on the video game source material hits theaters on September 18.
