Twitter is finally testing out an Edit button

After years of many users asking for it, Twitter is teasing that it's working on an Edit button. The company says it's been working on the feature since "last year" and previewed what it will look like. The option is kept within the three-dot menu in a tweet. It's unclear how the feature will work. All we know is that it'll give you the option to edit a tweet after it has been posted.

Twitter plans to roll it out first through Twitter Blue Labs, which offers beta features to Twitter Blue subscribers. The company plans to "learn what works, what doesn't, and what's possible" before bringing the option to everyone.

Patent filing shows Apple's plans for game controller concept

It looks like Apple is thinking about what it can offer in the gaming space. A patent filing shows what the company is thinking about regarding gaming controllers. The filing is titled "Magnetically Attachable Gaming Accessory, showing an accessory that could "readily attach to an electronic device, can be easy to use, and can have a small and efficient form factor." It seems Nintendo Switch-like, with the controller being either attached to the device or used separately (à la Nintendo Joy-Cons). But it will use magnets, which we presume rely on MagSafe or a variation of it.

One of the controller variations shown in the patent comes with a projector, which would be a new offering in the space. If it ever becomes a product, you don't even have to worry about having a bigger display nearby to play. We have to repeat this again, but patents don't always mean these ideas become actual products. But it does show us the headspace of the company when it comes to thinking about gaming. We're hoping it pushes through with this one.

Coca-Cola teases 'pixel-flavoured' Byte soda in 'Fortnite'

Ever wondered what a pixel tastes like? Coca-Cola seems to have cracked that mystery and announced a new drink flavour called Coca-Cola Zero Sugar Byte or Byte, for short. It's the follow-up to the space-flavoured Coca-Cola Starlight released earlier this year.

The Coke Byte first made its appearance in Fortnite. There's a Coca-Cola Pixel Point Fortnite island where you'll find two Coke-themed games. And when Byte hits stores next month, the physical soda can has a scannable label that brings you into an augmented reality experience on your phone. Even the can gets a unique pixelated Coca-Cola branding. Would you try it out?
