If you visit Apple’s executive leadership team page today, you’ll be in for a surprise. The official headshots of its exec team have been replaced by emoji-fied portraits. It’s the company’s tongue-in-cheek way to both celebrate World Emoji Day and announce the 70 new emoji it’s introducing for its platform.

The new MacBook Pros are getting a new “quieter” keyboard that is also said to protect against damage from dust. Unfortunately, if you have an existing MacBook that did suffer some damage by dust, you won’t be getting this new keyboard. CNET reports that both Apple Stores and Apple Authorized Service Providers won’t be permitted to replace the old keyboards with the new one because these are considered to be exclusive to the 2018 model.
It isn’t clear why this is the case but one theory is that it just won’t fit. A teardown done by iFixit of the 13-inch model found the top case has been shaven down, which is said to make more room for the larger battery on the laptop.
Tuesday, July 17, 2018 at 5:01AM A new Stranger Things season 3 trailer shows us what could be a key plot location for the new season. The 1:26 minute clip introduces us to Hawkins, Indiana’s newly opened Starcourt Mall. With it being described as opening in 1985, this seems to set the new season a year after season two. We can’t exactly glean how important this location will be but Steve (played by Joe Keery) and Robin (Maya Hawke) are seen working at Starcourt Mall’s Scoops Ahoy Ice Cream shop. Netflix hasn’t revealed a release date yet for the new season but the trailer does hint at “summer next year.”

If you wanted more out of your Mario Kart 8 Deluxe experience on the Nintendo Switch, you’re getting that. Nintendo’s head of software development Shinya Takahashi confirmed in a Twitter video that there will be more updates to the popular Super Mario game. He, however, didn’t elaborate on what the updates will bring and when they’re arriving. One of the latest announcements is the game is now compatible with Nintendo Labo.
Mr. Takahashi answered a few questions on some of his favorite #NintendoSwitch titles, including The Legend of #Zelda: Breath of the Wild, and #Splatoon2! pic.twitter.com/UsKJKHNfLT
