Star Wars Day- What Is It And The History Of May The 4th Be With You

Happy Star Wars Day to everyone in a galaxy far, far away. Today, you’ll see and hear people say “May the 4th be with you.” And sure, it may feel a little weird, but May 4 is the day where people around the world celebrate the Star Wars franchise. But where does this tradition come from and what does it mean?

The first movie in the multimedia franchise, Star Wars: A New Hope, hit theaters on May 25, 1977. The movie was a smashing success making over $775 million globally. Keep in mind, this is 1977 and getting close to that $1 billion mark during that time was huge. It was already a cultural phenomenon, just after one movie. And 44 years later, it’s still going strong.

Obviously, the phrase “May the 4th be with you” is based on “May the Force be with you,” something said num…

Fraudster charged with $12 million in stolen royalties used 1,000 bots to stream hundreds of thousands of AI tracks billions of times

They say crime doesn’t pay. But North Carolina musician Michael Smith allegedly managed to con music streaming services out of $12 million by setting up a 1,000-strong army of bots to stream AI-generated tunes he’d uploaded. At least, he did until the Feds caught up with him and charged Smith with multiple crimes.

Smith along with his co-conspirators is said to have operated his dastardly scheme from 2017 until 2024. Aware that simply uploading a track or two and using bots to stream the bejesus out of them would raise red flags with streaming services, Smith hatched a plan to use hundreds of thousands of AI-generated songs.

Each track would then only be streamed a relatively small number of times and thus be less likely to attract attention. According to court documents (…

How to use a PS4 controller on PC

The PS4 controller isn’t the hottest gamepad around anymore, but you know what, it’s still a great PC controller. When the PlayStation 4 came out, its redesigned DualShock 4 was a big deal. It had a touchpad, new analog sticks for the first time since the PlayStation 1, and most importantly for us, it could connect to a PC with a USB cable or Bluetooth, no special adapter required.

The DualShock 4 is easy to use on PC, still feels great in the hand, and is lighter and smaller than the PS5 controller. For those reasons it may be the right PC pad for you, even years into the PS5’s life. Sure, it’s not quite as exciting as the PS5’s DualSense controller with its adaptive triggers and advanced haptics. But sometimes the best controller is the one you have sitting around.
