Lego Batman delayed in Oz as Roadshow repeats 'hell of a mistake'
They say that those who forget history are doomed to repeat it.
But if you're Village Roadshow, the studio behind the wildly popular Lego Movie franchise and one of the most vocal critics of film piracy, you're quite happy to make "one hell of a mistake" all over again.
On March 30 next year, Australians will be able to see "The Lego Batman Movie" in cinemas for the first time. That is, if they didn't pirate it after the US release seven weeks earlier.
Village Roadshow's film distribution arm, Roadshow Films, took to Twitter to confirm the Batman spinoff of the original "The Lego Movie" will be launched at the end of March. But the US and UK (along with a number of other countries across North and South America and Europe) will get the film by February 10 -- a staggering 48 days earlier.
But most surprising of all, this kind of delay has happened before -- and Village Roadshow admitted it was a massive screw up the first time.
Roadshow released the original "Lego Movie" in February 2014 in the United States, but Australia, which had played host to much of the production on the film thanks to local animation house Animal Logic, had to wait until April 2014.
Back then, the company's outspoken CEO Graham Burke admitted the massive error that led to pirates to run rampant in downloading the film.
"We made one hell of a mistake with Lego," Burke told an audience at the Online Copyright Infringement Forum, an industry event chaired by then Communications Minister Malcolm Turnbull, in September 2014.
"We held it for a holiday period, it was a disaster. It caused it to be pirated very widely. And as a consequence: No more. Our policy going forward is that all of our movies will release day and date with the United States."
And it was no small mistake -- while Australians waited, piracy of the film was rampant, costing Village Roadshow a reported "$3.5 million to $5 million."
Burke has long been a vocal advocate for making content "cheaper, affordable and available as early as practical." But his company has matched words with litigious action. Village Roadshow took iiNet to Federal Court in 2008, claiming the internet service provider was complicit in the piracy of its customers, and this year the movie studio has been back in court in a bid to get suspected piracy sites blocked by local ISPs.
This case is still in court awaiting judgement.
So well may Burke and other rights holders praise the industry's move to day-and-date releases, while also decrying the scourge of piracy, slamming pirate websites as "sleazy neighbourhoods" that sell "hardcore pornography and scams such as party pills and steroids", and also taking legal action against ISPs.
But if you release one of the biggest films of 2017 two months late in Australia, what is your tough talk on piracy actually worth?
And if you recognise just how monumentally you failed your customers the first time, only to do exactly the same thing two years later, just how serious are you about beating the root causes of piracy?
CNET has contacted Village Roadshow and Graham Burke for comment.

DJI made a $119 phone camera stabilizer that folds and it's awesome
DJI made a $119 phone camera stabilizer that folds and it's awesome
Motorized phone camera stabilizers are great for getting smooth and steady shots from your phone -- assuming you use it. For me, it's one of those products you buy with the best intentions and then don't use because it's simply too large, awkward and fragile to bring with you all the time. DJI'sOsmo Mobile 3 tackles this with a unique folding design that makes it more compact and easier to toss in a bag and go. And it's $10 less than its predecessor.
Available today for $119, the redesigned gimbal unlocks and folds fast and has locks to keep it from swiveling around. You can even throw it into a standby mode so you can partially shut it down, fold it and move to a new location and then quickly unfold and immediately start shooting. The whole device is lighter and more compact than previous models, but still runs for up to 15 hours on a single charge.
The new design also addresses a few issues users had with the Osmo Mobile 2. The gimbal no longer blocks the ports on your phone so you can connect an external mic and charge your device off the Osmo's battery. You also no longer need to manually rotate your phone from landscape to portrait as it can now do it with a button press and position the camera right-side up.
From left to right: DJI Osmo Mobile, Mobile 2 and the new Mobile 3.

A slider on the grip's side lets you activate your phone's zoom and a trigger in front will automatically switch between your phone's front and rear camera. In selfie mode you can even use hand gestures to start a self-timer for photos and video. The trigger will also do things like recenter the camera and start DJI's ActiveTrack feature that automatically tracks a subject and keeps them centered in the frame.
The Osmo Mobile 3 uses DJI's Mimo app it introduced with the palm-sized Osmo Pocket in November 2018. Although you can use the Osmo Mobile 3 with your phone's camera app, Mimo is what gives you all the unique features like ActiveTrack and gesture controls. Mimo also enables you to create panoramas and shoot motion time-lapse and hyper-lapse videos. There's a Story mode as well that will take your videos and edit them into short, social-friendly clips using one of 13 templates.
Though mainly known for its camera drones, DJI has spent much of the past year building out other categories. Last month it introduced a first-person view HD video transmission system for drone racing and a compact motorized gimbal for pro cameras. In June, DJI introduced a $500 RC robot rover with a mini cannon made for students. It launched its first action cam in May, the DJI Osmo Action.

Chromebooks can now play PC games with GeForce Now
The competition in cloud gaming is heating up, with Microsoft's Xbox game streaming (xCloud)arriving in September, and now Nvidia encroaching on GoogleStadia's turf by adding Chromebooks to GeForce Now's supported platforms. The ability to run on a Chromebook is a great option, and GeForce Now is a slightly more sensible choice than Stadia. It's also easy to use: Just go to play.geforcenow.com, add a game you own that's in Nvidia's supported list, and launch.
Unlike Stadia, which has a small library of custom-optimized games that you buy specifically to run on its platform, GeForce now is bring-your-own-game. At least if you buy a game on Steam, Epic or Ubisoft, you'll still be able to run it on a PC if Nvidia pulls the plug on the service rather than get stuck with a pile of useless bits. However, I stand by my opinion that you shouldn't buy games exclusively to play with any of these services. They move in and out of the libraries because of licensing deals, and you may yet end up with that pile of useless bits; with GeForce Now, you'd have to buy a PC capable of running the game if it flits out of the library.
You don't necessarily need to buy games, though. There's a large selection of free-to-play games -- nothing that's not free on every platform, but now you can play them on a Chromebook. You can give the $4.99-per-month Founders membership (which entitles you to priority access and longer sessions than the free option) a try with Nvidia's new promotion: six months for $24.95, which is equivalent to a free month. It includes a Season One battle pass for Hyper Scape and some content.
The nice thing is that you can fire up one of the free-to-play games with the free account on your Chromebook and give it a shot at zero cost.
Now that you can sync your Steam library with GeForce Now, matching Nvidia's list with your library is not longer as onerous as it used to be, but if you have games through Epic Games Store it's really tedious on a Chromebook. That's because there's no EGS launcher for Chromebooks, and you can only see your game library in the launcher, not via the site. It's not Nvidia's fault, but it's Nvidia's problem.
The minimum recommended Chromebook specs aren't those you'd find in a cheap model, despite Nvidia's claim that a $299 model will run GeForce Now "fine": a 7th-gen Intel Core M3 or better (which has integrated Intel HD Graphics 600) and 4GB or more of RAM. Just as with its general network requirements, Nvidia does recommend a wired or 5GHz wireless connection -- that means WiFi 5 (802.11ac) -- and a network connection speed of at least 15Mbps (25Mbps recommended).
Although those are the recommended specifications, Nvidia has tested about 14 Intel-based models so far, some of which fall well below them:
I gave the service a whirl on the Chromebook 715, which falls on the high-end of the performance spectrum. When it works, it works well, and the experience matches playing on the desktop.
But, as usual, beyond a certain point it's not the hardware that holds back the experience; it's your internet connection. And bandwidth is only one factor when playing. The consistency of the connection is even more important, and it's something you can't measure because it changes minute to minute, and it's hard to fix in many situations. That doesn't always translate to poorer gameplay, but it frequently does start glitching the controls.
I'd launch a game when the connection was OK and at least 150Mbps, but by the time the opening screen appeared I'd start getting "spotty connection" warnings on a regular basis. In Observation, the glitchy video and unresponsive camera controls could pass as part of the game. In a platformer like Dead Cells, not so much. So your mileage may vary.
I suspect the problem is crowding on the Wi-Fi channels; there are no lightly used ones among the 20 or so Wi-Fi networks surrounding my apartment and my router. Ethernet is an option, but really inconvenient, which is probably true for a lot of people. This isn't unique to GeForce Now. It happens with all the services for me. But clearly it's an issue, given that Nvidia has a recommended router program for the service.
The other problem is Chromebook screens, which tend to be dim and washed out. They're usually not designed for a great gaming experience or with high contrast the way a phone or higher-end laptop screen is.
The Chromebook version supports all the latest features of GeForce Now, including Highlights, which can automatically record notable gameplay, and FreeStyle, for applying filters to your games. Ansel -- the high-resolution capture tool in Nvidia's drivers -- will be arriving soon in GeForce Now.
If you've got a Chromebook, even one that doesn't meet the minimum specs, it's certainly worth giving it a shot to see how well it works on your particular setup.

Samsung aims to make smart home tech easier with Matter support in 2022
Samsung aims to make smart home tech easier with Matter support in 2022
Samsung SmartThings devices will adopt the Matter standard starting in 2022 for easier installation and use of smart home products, the electronics giant said Tuesday at its developer conference. Matter support will come to Samsung TVs, refrigerators and other devices.
Matter is designed to make it easier to connect devices like networked light fixtures, thermostats and security cameras to different manufacturers' phones and smart speakers. Amazon, Google, Apple, Samsung and others announced the technology earlier this year but delayed its release a few months until 2022.
One big part of Matter's promise is that devices supporting it should easily fit into homes overseen by tech giants Amazon, Google and Apple -- for example controlling a Nest thermostat with an Apple iPhone or an Amazon Echo smart speaker. Today's connection problems are a problem for consumers and device makers alike, so Matter's success could help speed adoption of smart home technology.
SmartThings refers to Samsung's line of smart devices, the app it uses to control them and underlying technology for linking them. Matter support should make it easier for Samsung devices to bridge its system with others' and "makes smart home connectivity nearly effortless," the company said in a statement.
Dozens of the biggest names in smart home technology have pledged support for Matter. When Matter certified devices arrive on the market, they'll be recognizable with a logo showing three round-tipped arrows pointing toward a central point.
Matter is core to Google Home device technology, and Amazon is adding it to its Echo smart speakers. For controlling devices, Google and Apple are building Matter support into Android and into iOS.
Matter support was only one piece of Samsung's home-centric announcements on Tuesday. Samsung also showcased its Bixby Home Platform, which is meant to be a thread that connects SmartThings to Samsung's voice assistant for easier smart home control.
During the presentation, Samsung showcased how a single Bixby command like "Play an action movie" could trigger multiple actions across devices, such as dimming the lights, pulling up a movie on the TV and turning on the sound bar. Amazon and Apple offer similar functionality though their own respective features known as Alexa Routines and Scenes.
SmartThings got its start on Kickstarter in 2012, and Samsung acquired it in 2014. The idea behind SmartThings seemed pretty solid: There are a lot of different smart home devices out there, all with different apps and set ups, making early adoption confusing for many. SmartThings would take all of your scattered products and connect them under one app and one hub. But while Amazon, Google and Apple continue to add features and new hardware into the mix, complicated user interfaces and glitches are still holding SmartThings back, making it a less compelling option among its competitors.
Samsung is clearly trying to address those shortcomings with updates like Matter support and simpler voice controls through Bixby. But Samsung's voice assistant has also struggled to keep up with its rivals. A study from Voicebot.ai that measured smartphone virtual assistant usage between 2018 and 2020 found that Apple's Siri was the most frequently used mobile digital assistant with 45.1% of the market in 2020. The Google Assistant placed in second with 29.9%, while Amazon Alexa claimed third with 18.3%, and Samsung's Bixby only accounted for 6.7%.
Samsung held its developer conference virtually for the first time in 2021 after canceling the event in 2020 because of COVID-19. The conference is Samsung's opportunity to get developers excited about developing for its devices, much like Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference. In the past, the Samsung Developer Conference has also been a vehicle for showcasing new technologies before official product announcements. In 2018, for example, it provided a glimpse into Samsung's foldable phone designs before the Galaxy Z Fold or Galaxy Z Flip made their debuts.

Twitter Unveils Plan to Combat Misinformation in 2022 US Midterm Elections
Twitter is laying out its plan to address misinformation ahead of the 2022 US midterm elections in November. In a blog post Thursday, the social media company outlined efforts to combat false information while promoting "credible" data and a "healthy civic conversation."
Twitter will enforce its Civic Integrity Policy, which seeks to protect elections and root out misleading tweets. The platform will issue warning labels and reduce the visibility of false information related to voting, of content meant to intimidate voters and of claims designed to undermine public confidence elections.
In some cases, people may be unable to like or share tweets with misleading information in order to minimize their reach, said Twitter. The company will also proactively address common misinformation by putting prompts in people's timelines or when they search for related terms or hashtags.
The approach is crucial "to protect the civic conversation on Twitter, and to make it easier to find reliable information about elections," Twitter spokesperson Elizabeth Busby told CNET.
In addition, people using Twitter can also expect to see information on how and where to vote, a US elections explore tab and state-specific hubs with "real-time election information from state election officials, plus local news outlets and journalists."

Make Your Apple Watch Work Better by Changing These Settings
Make Your Apple Watch Work Better by Changing These Settings
Changing a few settings on your Apple Watch can go a long way. Even though the Apple Watch is already easy to use, you'll likely benefit from making certain customizations. For example, you can choose how you'd prefer to activate Siri, make your apps appear in a list view rather than a grid and set Portrait Mode photos from your iPhone as your watch background.
You'll be able to use these features and settings on any watch model that Apple currently sells, which includes the 4-year-old Series 3 (although we wouldn't recommend buying a Series 3 in 2022). But it's best to make sure that your watch is running the latest version of Apple's WatchOS 8 software. Doing so not only ensures that your watch has access to all of the latest features and improvements, but it's also a good safety measure since updates often include security-related fixes.
This fall, Apple Watch owners will have more new features to look forward to with the debut of WatchOS 9. The update will bring more detailed sleep monitoring and a new app for tracking medications to the Apple Watch Series 4 and newer. A beta version of WatchOS 9 will be available to the public this month, Apple said when unveiling the new software in June. We're also expecting to see the rumored Apple Watch Series 8 and Apple Watch Pro debut in September, which is when Apple typically introduces new watch models.
Here's a look at the Apple Watch settings you should change to get the most out of your watch.

Adjust all of your Activity goals
With the release of WatchOS 7 in 2020, Apple added the option to change your goals for the amount of time you stand and exercise. Previously, you could only change your Move (or calories) goal.
So instead of using the defaults -- 30 minutes of exercise and a cumulative 12 standing hours a day -- you can change either one to fit your actual daily routine.
This small change will make it possible for you to hit your own targets when you actually start your day, not when Apple tells you to. For example, if you use sleep tracking overnight and need to charge your watch more often in the morning, you won't feel like you've lost an hour of time needed to close those rings.
Open the Activity app on your watch, scroll to the bottom and tap ChangeGoals. Make your adjustments for all three metrics and start closing those rings.

You now have full control over what it takes to close your activity rings.

So long, random screenshots
To take a screenshot on the Apple Watch, you press the Digital Crown and side button at the same time. It's a simple and convenient method, unless you're like me and find yourself frequently triggering it accidentally, filling up the Photos app with random pictures of your watch face.
To turn off the ability to take screenshots altogether, open the Settings app on your watch or use the Watch app on your phone and go to General and scroll down until you find Screenshots. Tap this option and toggle off the switch next to Enable Screenshots for a clutter-free camera roll.
Customize which apps appear in your dock
If you have a lot of apps installed on your Apple Watch, it can be difficult to find the right ones when you need them. That's where the Apple Watch's dock comes in handy. If you're not familiar, the dock is essentially the iPhone's app switcher, but for the Apple Watch. You can trigger it by tapping the side button, which pulls up a carousel of recently used apps.
However, you can also customize the dock to show any apps you want instead of your most recent apps. To do this on your watch, open the Settings menu, tap Dock and select the Favorites option. But I recommend setting this up in the Phone's Watch app instead so that you can customize these apps.
Open the Watch app on your iPhone and tap Dock. Once the Favorites option is selected, you'll see a list of apps divided into two sections: Favorites and Do Not Include. Favorites are the apps that are currently in your dock, while the latter lists all of the other apps on your watch that aren't included. Tap the Edit button in the top right corner to customize the Favorites list to your liking.
Choose the Portrait mode photos you want to see on your wrist
You can set Portrait mode photos as the background for your watch face. But first, you have to dig into the settings in the Watch app on your iPhone. To get started, launch the Watch app and navigate to the Face Gallery tab at the bottom of the screen. Then, tap the Portraits option under the New Watch Faces category. Tap the Choose Photos option under Content to select up to 24 photos that will rotate automatically when you raise your wrist or tap the screen.
Apple's new Portrait watch face lets you set photos taken in Portrait Mode as the watch's backdrop.

Keep the Apple Watch's screen awake for a longer period of time
There are times when you might not want your Apple Watch's screen to go idle right away. Perhaps you were in the middle of reading a long text message and got distracted, or maybe you want to keep an eye on your timer. Once you tap the Apple Watch's screen, it typically stays active for 15 seconds. But you can extend that to 70 seconds by launching the Settings menu on your watch, tapping Display & Brightness and choosing Wake Duration. Then select the Wake for 70 Seconds option.
Stop every app from automatically installing
Every time you install an app on your iPhone, it will automatically install its Apple Watch counterpart if there is one. This can clutter up your watch's app grid pretty quickly, making it hard to find the apps you do want to use on your watch.
The Apple Watch is so much more than a way to view your notifications.
Vanessa Hand Orellana/CNET
In the Watch app on your phone, go to Settings > General and then slide the switch next to Automatic App Install to the Off position. You can also do this on the watch by opening the Settings menu, tapping App Store and toggling the switch next to Automatic Downloads.
From now on, you'll install individual apps on your watch by opening the Watch app on your phone, then scrolling to the bottom where you'll find a list of available apps.

Silence those noisy notifications
Smartwatches can be useful for discreetly checking an alert or the time. But loud notifications can defeat the purpose. Turn on your Apple Watch's silent mode by swiping up from the bottom of the screen to launch the Control Center. Then tap the icon that looks like abell to trigger Silent Mode.
You can also do this by opening the Apple Watch's Settings menu, scrolling down to Sound & Haptics and toggling the switch next to Silent Mode. There's also a volume slider for adjusting how loud or quiet incoming notifications sound if you'd rather not mute them completely.
Have Siri only speak out loud when you're wearing headphones
Siri can be useful for quickly setting timers, starting workouts or checking the weather from your watch. But you might not always want to have Siri speak out loud. You can easily change this so that Siri only provides audible feedback when you're wearing headphones. Open the Settings menu on your Apple Watch, scroll down to Siri and navigate to the Voice Feedback section. Then tap the Headphones Only option. When your Bluetooth headphones are connected to your Apple Watch, you should now see the name of your headphones appear above the Siri volume setting in the watch's settings menu.
Make text easier to read by increasing the font size
Reading notifications and news headlines can be difficult on a screen that's so small. Luckily, you can increase the font size on the Apple Watch to make things a bit easier on your eyes. To do so, launch the Settings app on your watch, tap Display & Brightness and scroll down to Text Size. Rotate the Digital Crown or tap the letters that appear on either side of the meter to adjust the text size on your watch. If you have the Apple Watch Series 7, you'll have more size options for enlarging the text, since it has a bigger display.
Stop those annoying reminders to "Breathe"
Every few hours your Apple Watch will beep and tap your wrist, reminding you to take a moment to breathe. The first time it happens it's kind of comical; Why do I need a reminder to breathe, wacky watch?! Then it happens again. And again. Every 4 hours by default, for a physiological act that is literally involuntary.
The Breathe reminder is designed to help you take a few minutes to clear your mind and control your respiration, in turn lowering your heart rate and potentially helping you feel more centered and calm. But if you're like me and never follow the prompt, take a few seconds to turn it off so you no longer have to be reminded to breathe.
Open the Apple Watch app on your iPhone, then scroll down and tap the Mindfulness app option. Next, select Notifications off. (Note: If your watch isn't running WatchOS 8, this will appear as Breathe instead of Mindfulness.)
Unlock your Apple Watch with your iPhone
Typing in your passcode to unlock your Apple Watch can be a pain, but there's an easier way to do it. You can choose to have your Apple Watch unlock automatically when your iPhone is unlocked.
Tap the Digital Crown and navigate to the Apple Watch's Settings menu. Scroll down to Passcode, and make sure the switch next to Unlock with iPhone is toggled on. Your iPhone will now also display an alert saying that your iPhone is being used to unlock your Apple Watch whenever you put this into practice.
You usually have to type in your Apple Watch's passcode to unlock it.

Make it easier to find your apps
The honeycomb app grid looks great in promotional photos and at first glance, but it can be difficult to find the app you want to launch, particularly if you have a lot of apps installed on your watch. Instead of in a grid, the watch can display all of your apps in an alphabetical list.
Either in the Watch app on your phone or in the Settings app on the Watch, tap App View > List View. Now, when you press the Digital Crown to leave your watch face, you'll see a list of apps that you can quickly scroll through and find what you're looking for.
See, doesn't the app list look better?
Sarah Tew/CNET
Control when you'll see Siri
There are three different ways to activate Siri on your Apple Watch. You can raise your wrist toward your mouth and start talking, long-press the Digital Crown or use the wake phrase, "Hey, Siri."
I've found that I often accidentally trigger Siri when trying to check the time or read a notification while I'm talking to someone else (but my watch thinks I'm trying to talk to Siri). It's annoying, but it can be changed.
Either in the Watch app on your phone or in the Settings app on the Watch, select Siri and there you'll find three buttons to control when you'll see Siri. Slide each button to the Off position for any of the options you don't want to use.
This is a hidden feature that you should memorize right now.
Jason Cipriani/CNET
Rearrange Control Center
Just like Control Center on your iPhone, Control Center on the Apple Watch is where you go to quickly adjust settings like do not disturb and airplane mode and to activate the flashlight.
You may find the default list of options in the Control Center isn't the best fit for how you use your watch, however, and you want to rearrange the list. For me, that means moving the Bedtime toggle from near the bottom of the list to the top. That way when I want to track my sleep over the weekend when I don't have sleep goals set, I can swipe up and tap the icon.
To access the Control Center on your watch, swipe up from the bottom of the watch face, or when in an app you can long-press on the bottom of the screen until you see Control Center start to slide up, after which you just need to slide your finger up to access it. The same trick works to view your notifications from anywhere.
Change the order, or hide some buttons in the Control Center by tapping the Edit button at the bottom of the list. The icons will begin to jiggle and show a red minus sign to hide an option. Drag and drop the icons into your preferred order, or tap the red minus button to remove the option altogether.
When you're done, tap Done or press the Digital Crown on the side of your watch to go back to the watch face.
There are plenty more Apple Watch features that are worth checking out. For example, the ECG app can help identify heartbeat irregularities, there are new workout options for Pilates and Tai Chi and you can even share your custom watch faces.
