10/26/2018, 5:40:11 PM
The 2019 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross relies on 1990s nostalgia, spiffy styling, and a new turbocharged engine to add some spice to a bland crossover recipe. Mitsubishi is trying to rebuild itself with a focus on SUVs, and the Eclipse Cross is an important part of that strategy. ✔ At high revs the engine makes an unpleasant grumbling sound, like it’s not having fun ✔ 2019 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross Compared To 2019 Volvo V60 2019 Audi Q3 2019 Genesis G70 2019 Audi Q8 2019 Audi A6 2019 Audi A7 2018 Audi RS3 2018 Mercedes-AMG GLC63 S 2018 Jaguar F-Type 400 Sport 2018 Audi R8 V10 Spyder 2018 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV 2018 Audi TT RS 2018 Infiniti Q50 2018 Subaru Crosstrek 2018 Volkswagen Tiguan

10/26/2018, 5:04:19 PM
Questions like whether a self-driving car should prioritize the life of its driver over pedestrians are, to put it mildly, complex ethical dilemmas. Researchers recently published the findings to a massive survey of 2.3 million people giving their thoughts on these conundrums. ✔ But there was disagreement, too, such as the fact that people in certain countries were more likely to elect to hit people crossing roads illegally than those in others ✔ Religious factors also seemingly played a role in differences, as did issues like economic inequality ✔ A paper describing the research was published in Nature

10/26/2018, 7:56:04 PM
Faster phones, easier access to on-demand video, simpler networking -- on the surface, 5G sounds like a dream. So why is it more of a nightmare? ✔ Small cells are bricks or maybe toolbox-sized pieces of gear that can fit outside your house, on buses, high on telephone poles, wherever ✔ Because winter is coming – and my network damn well better be prepared for the download demands ✔ The views expressed here are solely those of the author and do not reflect the beliefs of Digital Trends

10/26/2018, 5:26:27 PM
Something about the movie you’re watching looks too real or maybe too fake -- and it’s bothering you. It's not 4K resolution, and it isn't your TV panel.

Blackmagic BMPCC 4K review: A pint-sized video powerhouse

10/26/2018, 7:08:59 PM
Blackmagic's Pocket Cinema Camera 4K is a talented, powerful video camera in a compact package. ✔ As it happened, I was able to test it at the same time as the all-new and formidable Nikon Z7, Canon EOS R and Fujifilm X-T3 mirrorless cameras ✔ That will leave wedding and other videographers without a backup ✔ It's a lot of fun to use thanks to the excellent handling and beautiful 5-inch display ✔ Using any mirrorless camera after that is bound to be disappointing

10/26/2018, 4:35:37 PM
Commentary: I grew up learning that I would be targeted when I shop because of implicit bias.
