Two men and a woman attempted to kidnap a three-foot long horn shark from the San Antonio Aquarium by disguising it as a baby. And yes, you did read that correctly.
On Saturday, a man plucked the shark from a tank at the Aquarium, quickly wrapped it in a blanket, put it in a bucket filled with a bleach solution, then put it into a baby carriage, according to BBC News.
The kidnappers were followed to their car by the Aquarium’s general manager, Jen Spellman, who noticed water leaking from the stroller, Aquarium owner Ammon Covino told USA Today. After they were asked to allow a search of their vehicle the suspects sped off, but Spellman took note of their license plate and car model and reported it to the authorities. Read more…

Samsung’s latest quarterly earnings confirm what analysts were expecting: the Galaxy S9’s sales aren’t so hot.
In Samsung’s just released Q2 report, the South Korean electronics conglomerate missed the mark on Galaxy S9 sales targets. The smartphone, which was released at the end of last quarter, accounts for a major chunk of Samsung’s 4 percent year on year drop in revenue.
Earlier this month, analysts warned that Samsung’s Galaxy S9 smartphone could be the worst selling Galaxy S series phone since the release of the Galaxy S3 in 2012. Analysts were estimating that the smartphone giant only shipped around 31 million Galaxy S9 phones since its release in March. Read more…

Warning: This post contains mild spoilers for Season 6 of Orange is the New Black.
I was 10 episodes into Orange is the New Black Season 6 when I realized I was truly invested.
I wasn’t ride or die for the show’s central couple, Piper and Alex, or for Nicky’s quirky quips as she tries to save Red. I care deeply about Taystee, but I was tired of how much of her story was inexplicably spent on Joe Caputo and his corporate love triangle (blegh).
No, what got me in was Carol and Barbara Denning, a.k.a. the “Little Debbie murderers” held in maximum security prison probably for the rest of their lives (Henny Russell and Mackenzie Phillips, respectively). The warring siblings (who killed their kid sister when they were teens, played by Ashley Jordyn and Lauren Kelston) run Litchfield Max and their feud is the most compelling thing in Season 6.

We’re going to let you in on a little secret: Bigger isn’t necessarily better.
Take tech, for example. No one wants to lug around a brick cellphone or full-fledged desktop computer when you can buy something slim and lightweight.
Speakers are no exception, and if you’re in the market for one that’s small, but packs a punch, check out Soundfreaq’s Pocket Kick Bluetooth Speaker.
Don’t be fooled by its size. The speaker might be small enough to fit in your pocket, and it does indeed weigh less than a pound, but it’s specially designed to maximize sound quality and frequency dynamism. Read more…

Everything from culottes to chokers to old sitcoms have made a comeback at some point or another in our cyclical culture, and now, a piece of technology from our recent past is experiencing a tiny resurgence.
Digital cameras from the aughts are having a moment again, and there’s a growing community online making space for them to shine.
The resurgence of relics from the past is usually chalked up to simple nostalgia, but it’s more than that when it comes to these cameras — especially to those who have found themselves picking up “digicams” (as they’re sometimes called) for the first time in years. Read more…

MoviePass is still kicking, but it’s not the “too good to be true” deal it once was. Maybe things were always going to turn out like this.
After a long Thursday-to-Monday weekend of service outages and customer outrage, MoviePass resurfaced on Tuesday morning with a new plan. Literally. The movie ticket subscription service is jacking up its monthly price and making some changes to the way it operates.
The biggest, most visible change is the cost of using the service. Sometime in the next 30 days, the $9.95 per month, one-screening-per-day plan will see its price increased to $14.95 per month. Read more…
