(Photo by Lee Klafczynski/ISI Photos/Getty Images) Reggie Cannon, like most of the U.S. men’s national soccer team, has traveled the globe representing his country and playing his sport. He grew up in Texas, some five hours from Uvalde, but he now lives in Portugal. And so, as news of May’s devastating shooting in his home state left Cannon “completely distraught,” his… Source link

Russia won’t run on Dunkin’ — at least anymore. U.S. multinational coffeehouse Dunkin’ Donuts is the latest consumer favorite to part ways with its business ties to Russia, joining a growing-by-the-minute list of corporations shunning the country in response to President Vladimir Putin’s military invasion of Ukraine. “Dunkin’ has suspended all current development and investment in Russia,” a spokesperson told Yahoo Finance Friday, indicating the company has approximately 20… Source link

The good news for Josh Taylor is that he’ll walk to the ring on Saturday in Glasgow, Scotland, to a hero’s welcome as he prepares to defend his undisputed super lightweight title against mandatory challenger Jack Catterall. The bad news is, there’s going to be plenty of these mandatories popping up in short order, and it’s going to take a heroic effort in order to keep the belts. Normally, the mandatory challengers aren’t the fights fans are itching to see. And with no offense meant… Source link

If you’ve spent any time speaking to Black coaches or front-office personnel in the NFL, if you’ve spent any time paying attention to the league around hiring season, Brian Flores’ racial discrimination lawsuit isn’t a surprise. That does not make the lawsuit he filed any less stunning. Flores’ decision to potentially lose his career as a coach, the thing he said in a statement had been gifted to him from God, at just 40 years old cannot be understated. There are moral stands, and then there… Source link

The latest Google Pixel Stand is less of a “must-have” accessory if you’re a Pixel phone owner and more of a “nice to have.” For $79, its primary job is fast wireless charging, and it does that well. But unless you’re a Pixel 6 or 6 Pro owner and you’re really sold on one of the stand’s handful of extra features supported by your phone, then you’d be better off saving your money and getting an inexpensive third-party charger. … Source link

Good luck to her, because this will be a tough battle. Big Tech carries out its own AI research with much more money, effectively sucking oxygen out of the room for everyone else. In 2019, for instance, Microsoft Corp. invested $1 billion into OpenAI, the research firm co-founded by Elon Musk, to power its development of a massive language-predicting system called GPT-3. A Harvard University study on AI ethics, published Wednesday, said that investment went to a project run by just 150… Source link

Like the original, it automatically adjusts the phone’s UI for docked use to pull up photo frames or shortcuts to your… Source link

A big question is on the minds of jurors, prosecutors, and maybe even Elizabeth Holmes and her defense team, as government lawyers come close to wrapping up their fraud case: Will the fallen Silicon Valley entrepreneur take the stand to defend herself? There’s no easy formula to arrive at a decision, criminal trial attorneys tell Yahoo Finance, though some critical considerations are bound to weigh in. “The biggest risk that you can take at trial as a defense lawyer is to call your client… Source link

Thursday, Nov. 4, 2021 | 2 a.m. In an all-too-rare instance of positive news coming from Big Tech, Yahoo announced this week that it was pulling out of China.
