| No, you don't own your apps — here's why it feels like you do
|
 Possessions are going out of fashion. An endless stream of media reports claim millennials – that amorphous mass of people born in the 1980s and 1990s who have grown up with the internet and digital technology – are in favor of accessing rather than owning stuff. And yet my research shows that owning possessions is still something millennials hunger for. It is just that these possessions are now digital rather than physical. People who become heavy users of the apps they download can develop deep relationships with these services, so deep that they take on what we call "psychological ownership"… This story continues at The Next Web

| Dota 2 International prize pool surpasses $30M, becomes largest in esports history
|
 In case anyone still needed convincing that esports is truly massive, the Dota 2 tournament to be held next month just accrued over $30 million in prize money. That's the largest pot ever offered for such a competition, and judging by the amount it's increased in just the last few months, it's going to be even more massive this time next year. The 2019 Dota 2 International, the largest tourney for players of Valve's MOBA, currently has a prize pool of $30,200,471 (at time of writing — it's still going up). That makes it the biggest ever offered for a single… This story continues at The Next Web

| Pixel 4 leaks show the notch will be replaced for a chunky forehead with a neat trick
|
 By now the Pixel 3 XL's giant notch has become something of a meme in the tech world. The most egregious example of an unfortunate design trend, it's a testament to human adaptation that the phone's users were eventually kinda-sorta able to ignore the notch. Sort of. Almost a year after I reviewed the Pixel 3 XL, the notch still haunts me now and then, especially when I see at a bezel-less phone like the OnePlus 7 pro. Google appears to have relented with the Pixel 4. While the company has already shown us what the back of the Pixel… This story continues at The Next Web

| Watch someone play GoldenEye with a piano as a controller
|
 Few third-party Nintendo 64 titles have managed to maintain as fond memories as Goldeneye 007, a title that was many a 90s kid's first FPS game. It also had some really catchy tunes. Now an enterprising YouTuber Jackson Parodi has combined music and gameplay by controlling Goldeneye with his digital piano. The concept is pretty simple. Parodi simply maps different piano keys to buttons on the N64 remote. Considering the N64 only had one analog stick and Goldeneye made you aim with four C-buttons or the D-Pad anyway, it's not as inconvenient a setup as it might seem. You can… This story continues at The Next Web

| Fox News Host Calls for '9/11-Style Commission' to Investigate How AOC Was Elected to Congress
|
 Reacting to Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's (D-NY) call for a "9/11-style commission" to be convened to investigate the Trump administration's child separation policy at the border, Fox News host Pete Hegseth said on Monday that there should instead be an investigation to see how the progressive lawmaker was elected to Congress in the first place. During a town hall in her district on Saturday, Ocasio-Cortez called for a lengthy study into the president's zero-tolerance immigration policy, adding that it's what's "required in order to reunify as many children with their parents as possible" On Monday's broadcast of Fox News' early-afternoon chatfest Outnumbered, the panel discussed Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer's recent visit to border detention centers, noting Schumer and other Democrats called the conditions at the camps "inhumane." Fox News host Melissa Francis then contrasted this with President Trump's weekend tweets about Schumer's visit in which he said Schumer "must have seen how dangerous ...
