The price hike on the Nintendo Switch 2 we all anticipated was made official earlier this month. Customers in the U.S. will now pay $50 more for the console ($499.99 instead of $449.99) starting later this year. So, if you're already going to have to dish out more money, you might as well get a free game out of it, right?
Launching in early June, participating retailers will be offering a new Nintendo Switch 2: Choose Your Game Bundle for $499.99 (the same price as the console alone will soon be). The bundle includes the Nintendo Switch 2 system along with a download code for your choice of one of these titles: Mario Kart World, Donkey Kong Bananza, or Pokémon Pokopia. These games cost $79.99, $69.99, and $69.99 respectively.
Nintendo says you'll be saving up to $30 on these games by snagging the bundle, but after the price hike goes into effect, you'd essentially be getting a game of your choice for free. This could be the perfect way for you to finally play the Switch 2 game that you can't stop thinking about (it's Pokopia, isn't it?).
Folks on Reddit are calling the bundle a "smart move" by Nintendo to ease the blow of the price hike. And I can't say they're wrong.
"Offer start date and end date varies by retailer," Nintendo said in the press release. The only details we have are that the bundle will launch in early June and be available for a "limited time" from participating retailers. We'll certainly be keeping an eye out for it in the next few weeks.
Crisis averted?
Edtech giant Instructure, maker of the popular learning management system (LMS) Canvas, announced that it made a deal with the hacking collective known as ShinyHunters to safeguard the user data the group stole during the recent Instructure data breach.
According to Instructure CEO Steve Daly, ShinyHunters has agreed not to release the stolen data taken in the breach and will not extort any of Canvas's users.
Instructure had its systems breached not once but twice by the hacking collective known as ShinyHunters over the past two weeks. On April 30, the cybercriminals said they were able to extract data belonging to 275 million Canvas users at nearly 9,000 schools worldwide. The affected users included students, teachers, and staff, and the data included usernames, email addresses, student IDs, and private messages exchanged on the platform. Some of Instructure's impacted users are underage students.
Then, in a second incident last week, ShinyHunters defaced the Canvas login pages for numerous schools due to a weakness in the platform's Free-For-Teacher accounts.
The data breaches resulted in Canvas being taken offline multiple times. What's worse, these incidents happened to coincide with finals week for many schools, and the platform downtime resulted in some educational institutions having to reschedule tests and coursework.
ShinyHunters had threatened to release the stolen data if Instructure did not "negotiate a settlement" and pay a ransom by May 12.
Instructure and ShinyHackers strike a dealOn Monday, Instructure announced that it had struck a deal with ShinyHunters, seemingly giving in to at least some of the hackers' demands.
"We know that concerns about the potential publication of data related to this incident remain top of mind for many customers," Daly said in a statement posted to the Instructure website. "We understand how unsettling situations like this can be, and protecting our community remains our top priority. With that responsibility in mind, Instructure reached an agreement with the unauthorized actor involved in this incident."
Instructure said the agreement with ShinyHunters required that the hackers return the stolen data. The company also said that it received "digital confirmation of data destruction" in the form of shred logs.
Finally, the company says it received an agreement from ShinyHunters that individual customers will not be extorted with the stolen data from the Instructure breach. The Canvas-maker says that the agreement that the company made with the hackers "covers all impacted Instructure customers."
"There is no need for individual customers to attempt to engage with the unauthorized actor," Instructure said in its statement.
Instructure didn't share details regarding any sort of monetary arrangement with ShinyHunters. The company also acknowledged that the deal was struck with a party that cannot necessarily be trusted and may not hold up their end of the deal.
"While there is never complete certainty when dealing with cyber criminals, we believe it was important to take every step within our control to give customers additional peace of mind, to the extent possible," Daly said. "We continue to work with expert vendors to support our forensic analysis, further harden our environment, and conduct a comprehensive review of the data involved. We will continue to provide updates as that work progresses."
Instructure says that students, teachers, and other customers affected by the breach can visit the incident response page for further updates.

Featured Video For You Is ChatGPT Changing the Way We Write?Project Hail Mary is the first movie to bring me to the theaters in an embarrassing amount of time. So long I'm not willing to disclose it on the internet. But I am so glad it's the film that brought be back to the theater because it was So. Dang. Good.

Sure, it took some liberties with the story, but it makes for a faster-paced, more emotional journey. Plus, I'm not mad about a lot of the science babble getting cut.
It stars a witty, impeccably dressed Ryan Gosling as Ryland Grace and an adorable rock spider alien named Rocky (voiced by James Oritz).
Project Hail Mary made its theatrical debut on March 20, 2026 and can still be seen in theaters across the country, but now the film is expanding its horizons and giving you another way to tune in. Here's everything you need to know in order to watch Grace and Rocky at home.
What is Project Hail Mary about?Middle school science teacher Ryland Grace (Gosling) wakes up from a coma on a spacecraft (the Hail Mary) with no memory of who he is or why he's there. As his memory slowly returns, he realizes he's the sole survivor of a crew on a suicide mission to save Earth from alien microorganisms (astrophage) that are eating the sun's energy. Can his science skills and perseverance help him to save humanity?
Check out the official trailer below:
When will Project Hail Mary be streaming?Amazon MGM Studios announced in mid-April that it was delaying the streaming release for Project Hail Mary and extending its theatrical run. The film even returned to IMAX theaters for a week to give audiences a chance to see the film in the way it was originally intended.
"We announced yesterday that MGM is extending the exclusive theatrical window for Project Hail Mary, so it won’t be on streaming anytime soon," Co-director Christopher Miller said in a post on X. "This is a movie that needs to be seen on a big screen...make plans to see it in a theater now! Bring friends and loved ones. It’s an experience to share with others."
It's not following the same theater-to-streaming trajectory as other Amazon MGM films, but I can see why. This is also completely new territory for the studio. The highest-grossing film for Amazon MGM ever and the second highest earner for 2026 as a whole, it appears the studio is waiting as long as possible before debuting it on streaming.
However, there is a light at the end of the tunnel. While it won't be hitting streaming services quite yet, you will be able to watch it at home if you purchase or rent it on digital.
How to watch Project Hail Mary at home Credit: Amazon MGM Studios Buy or rent it on digitalProject Hail Mary officially made its at-home debut on digital retail sites like Prime Video and Fandango at Home on May 12, 2026. You can rent it for a slightly lower cost or buy it forever for a little more at any of the retailers below. With rentals, you'll have 30 days to watch and just 48 hours to finish watching once you begin.
Prime Video — buy for $24.99, rent for $19.99
Apple TV — buy for $24.99, rent for $19.99
Fandango at Home — buy for $24.99, rent for $19.99
Google Play — buy for $24.99, rent for $19.99
YouTube — buy for $24.99, rent for $19.99
When Project Hail Mary finally does arrive on streaming is anyone's guess, but I'm going to go out on a limb and say it could arrive in mid June (at the earliest). However, like I noted above, this is unprecedented territory. The streaming release could be pushed back even further. We'll update this story when we find out more.
Another thing to note is that it could make its streaming debut on either MGM+ or Prime Video. Previous Amazon MGM Studios films like Challengers and Blink Twice graced MGM+ first before finally expanding to Prime Video. It seems unlikely that Amazon would choose to debut its biggest movie ever on its smaller, niche streaming service, but we wanted to give you fair warning that it is possible.
The good news is that both Prime Video and MGM+ offer free trials if you're a new subscriber. If you're not currently a Prime Video or Prime subscriber, then you can sign up for a 30-day free trial to Amazon Prime. That goes for brand new subscribers and those returning to Prime after some time away. MGM+ offers users a free seven-day trial to kick things off, then goes for $7.99 per month or $5.17 per month if you sign up for a whole year.

Now, Phillips is a tabloid sensation, making headlines about faking a pregnancy and getting a boyfriend like any other influencer would. Between late Nov. and Dec. 2024, her name was Googled 6.4 million times, according to Google Trends.
Being an adult creator mixes something she really enjoys — sex — with creativity, Phillips told Mashable in an interview. "It was something I just really wanted to do," she said. "I knew it was something that was just for me."
SEE ALSO: 'We're all sinners': the Conservative tradwife who does OnlyFansAnd she makes money from it. A lot of it.
While Phillips was tight-lipped about a typical month's earnings, she did share that her biggest month pulled her in $800,000 following the shoot with 101 men.
"What's not to love?" she asked.
Phillips's profile has risen at the same time as a moral panic against porn, both stateside and in the UK, where she resides.
For years, adult content creators like Phillips have been pushed off mainstream social media platforms. More recently, with the enactment of age-verification laws in many states and in the UK, access to explicit content has become more restricted; if a porn site complies, visitors must submit proof of age, be it a government ID or a facial scan. This has also occurred with content that's not at all explicit but deemed potentially harmful to minors, like a Reddit forum to help people stop smoking.
For Phillips, who mainly uploads content on her OnlyFans account, porn allows her to be creative and make the content she wants (within the OnlyFans guidelines, of course).
"For me, I see it as a real art," she said. "And it sounds silly, but I really…get to create my own art every day."
"I wasn't very good at school. I'm not great academically or anything like that. So to find something that I excel in feels amazing," she continued.
What people get wrong about Lily PhillipsThere are many misconceptions about sex workers out there. The ones Phillips has heard about herself include that she's money-hungry ("No, I just do something that I enjoy and love") and that she has an "evil demeanor" ("No, none of this is evil or necessarily wrong…I'm just putting my art out there for people to also enjoy").
"And if the male porn star [were sitting] here, is that the first question you would ask him?"She also sees how she's treated differently from men in the adult industry. One of the most-asked questions she received is what her parents think. "And if the male porn star [were sitting] here," she said, "is that the first question you would ask him?"
There's an idea of "ownership" when it comes to women, Phillips said, like her parents somehow own her. "No, this was just a choice I made on my own when I was an adult," she said.
She herself is open-minded about other people's perspectives, so she finds it sad that others aren't the same way. "When someone's made their mind up, and they think they know everything about you and your job, it can be quite frustrating."
She'd love to sit down with someone who is anti-porn and hear why they're against it, and destigmatize the industry for them.
Phillips is also a supporter of the Online Safety Act, the UK's age-verification law that went into effect in July 2025.
SEE ALSO: Porn censorship is going to destroy the entire internet"There's nothing worse than…someone underage seeing my porn," she said. She first saw porn at 11 years old, and thinks the thought of someone underage seeing it is gross.
Early studies about age-verification laws, however, suggest that they don't work to keep minors off porn sites due to software like VPNs and non-compliant websites. Many instead urge for device-level filters, which free speech advocates say don't infringe on adults' rights. Last week, Pornhub announced it's live in the UK again following the implementation of such a filter on iOS 26.4 devices; it previously blocked itself due to the Online Safety Act.
Phillips is also a proponent of more sex education and media literacy in schools. She mentioned that young men could watch porn and think that sex is like this in real life. As an adult, you come to learn that porn isn't like how everyone has sex, but that's not the case when you first become sexually active, she said. (Though some adults likely don't know this, either.)
Phillips told Mashable she hasn't seen her income impacted by the Online Safety Act at all. That could be because OnlyFans requires a credit card to create an account, which is a form of age verification. But a preliminary study shows that other adult creators have experienced income losses due to these restrictions.
A typical day for Lily PhillipsEvery day is "super different," Phillips said, but she gave an example of what she was up to the day of her Mashable interview. That morning, she walked her dog and filmed custom content for clients and social media content.
After the interview, she said she had other calls scheduled, including video calls with clients. Then, she was going to wind down for the evening.
"Most people think it's a huge amount of sex, but I probably only really have sex with other creators once a week," she revealed. "People probably think I'm banging out every single day, but [I'm] really not."
"I probably only really have sex with other creators once a week. People probably think I'm banging out every single day, but [I'm] really not."As for porn studios, Phillips said she only works with them around once a month. She prefers her content to be exclusive to her OnlyFans, as she owns it herself. When she makes a video with a studio, "You sign that contract and they can sell [the video] when you're dead." Plus, studios don't pay as well. An industry professional told Mashable that the typical heterosexual scene pays around $1,200-1,600 for women and $700-1,000 for men. This can increase for specialized scenes or higher-profile performers.
Especially with OnlyFans, marketing and advertising are a huge part of getting an audience. OnlyFans itself doesn't have discovery functions, so creators need to go elsewhere, like social media, to find customers. So a lot of her time is spent creating social media content.
And it just so happened that days before Phillips spoke to Mashable, her Instagram account disappeared.
What happened to Lily Phillips's Instagram?Phillips and her team confirmed to Mashable that her Instagram account was removed in early May. A Meta spokesperson told Mashable on May 11 that the account was removed in error and has been restored.
"A huge amount of industry girls are being deleted at the minute," Phillips told Mashable while the account was still down. This isn't too surprising, as more and more sex-related, LGBTQ, and reproductive health accounts are reporting that Meta is censoring them.
"We're really being discriminated against," Phillips said. "All my content is always in the guidelines. I really don't even show my ass cheeks or anything like that. I'm pretty strict."
"All my content is always in the guidelines. I really don't even show my ass cheeks or anything like that. I'm pretty strict."Instagram is one of her biggest platforms that brings in OnlyFans subscribers, so if it remained down, it would've impacted her financially, she said. Her vlogging Instagram account with over 110,000 followers remained active while the main account, @lilyphillip_s, was down, but that's a small fraction of the 1.6 million following on her other account.
What's next for Lily Phillips?In the immediate future, Phillips is appearing on the new Australian reality series Turned On: Dirty Sexy Money, which premieres at the end of May.
Phillips sees herself as a workaholic, saying she sometimes doesn't sit back and take in how much she's made or the recognition she's received. But as the nature of content creators, adult and not, you can't just sit back on your laurels once you have an $800,000 month. If you want that to happen again, you have to work for it.
"Sustaining that can be quite hard," she said. Once you have a viral moment like Phillips did with 100 Men, she thinks about how she can top herself (figuratively) and keep doing better.

Spotify has just turned 20, and the company has a gift for you.
On Tuesday, the company launched a new feature called "Party of the Year(s)," an experience that gives you a quick trip down memory lane.
We won't spoil the surprise, but it's very similar to Spotify Wrapped, the biggest difference being that it spans your entire history on Spotify. At the end of it, you'll get a playlist featuring your all-time favorite songs on the service.
SEE ALSO: Claude can now connect with Spotify, Uber, and a lot more appsTo check it out, go here and scan the QR code with your mobile device, or just go to spotify.com/20 on your phone.
By the way, we checked, and it isn't exactly Spotify's 20th today, at least not if we're talking about the music streaming service that launched in 2008. Spotify, the company, was however founded in April 2006, roughly 20 years ago.
Windows laptops aren't the only computers getting more expensive amid the global RAM shortage. Two PC makers just quietly raised the prices of their premium Chromebooks as well.
As of mid-May, two configurations of the Lenovo Chromebook Plus 14 and one variant of the Acer Chromebook Plus Spin 514 were up to $250 pricier than they were at launch last year:
Lenovo Chromebook Plus 14 (MediaTek Kompanio Ultra 910, 16GB RAM, 256GB UFS) — was $749.99, now $999
Lenovo Chromebook Plus 14 (MediaTek Kompanio Ultra 910, 12GB RAM, 128GB UFS) — was $649.99, now $829.99 (but sold out)
Acer Chromebook Plus Spin 514 (MediaTek Kompanio Ultra 910, 12GB RAM, 256GB UFS) — was $699.99, now $749
A second configuration of the Acer model has remained steady at $799.99 since its release in September 2025, though it was out of stock at the time of writing.
Lenovo and Acer haven't formally announced these price changes, which were first reported by the tech site Chrome Unboxed. Mashable reached out to both companies and will update this story if we hear back.

Both Chromebooks are best-in-class machines (we've tested them), but they were already costly at their original MSRPs. The now-$999 Lenovo Chromebook Plus 14, in particular, is impossible for me to recommend at full price despite its beautiful OLED display and peppy processor. An on-sale M5 MacBook Air is a vastly smarter buy.
If nothing else, these Chromebooks make Apple's new budget laptop, the Mashable Choice Award-winning MacBook Neo, look like even more of a bargain at $599 (or $499 for education buyers). But it might not be available at that price for much longer.
The Lenovo Chromebook Plus 14 is a really nice Chromebook — but for $999, just get an on-sale MacBook Air.

The RAM crisis has gotten so dire lately that scammers have started selling fake RAM modules, and it's expected to get worse next year.
In April, Microsoft announced price hikes of up to $500 for its Surface Laptops and Surface Pro convertibles, blaming "recent increases in memory and component costs" in a statement to Windows Central. Meanwhile, the modular PC maker Framework has adjusted its RAM and SSD prices every month since December. Most recently, it told customers that it's seen some stability this spring, but cautioned that it's likely just "a temporary reprieve."
For its part, Apple has been largely immune to "RAMageddon" so far, though it discontinued the cheapest configuration of its Mac mini desktop computer earlier this month. The base MacBook Neo might soon suffer the same fate, according to tech analyst Tim Culpan.

Donald Trump's newly released UFO files not only glow with distracting X-Files energy but also the power of Céline Dion, according to Stephen Colbert.
The Late Show host unpacked the U.S. government's recent drop of "new, never-before-seen files" on unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAPs), a term Colbert described as "also my pre-show warm-up."
Mashable 101 Fan Fave: Vote for your favorite creator today!
"So, what's in these mysterious, top secret, super cool files?" asked the host. "For example, one of the astronauts [Alan Bean] from Apollo 12 reported 'flashes of light.' And we actually have footage of the astronaut describing what they saw."
Cut to the music video for Dion's eternal power ballad "It's All Coming Back to Me Now." "Thank you, Commander Dion," says Colbert.
And the Céline reaction videos do not stop there.

Stephen Colbert's Late Show is coming to a close, and the guests appear to be getting more entertainingly chaotic every day.
Last week we had leg wrestling with John Krasinski, and on Monday we had Colbert interviewing all four other late night hosts that were in the Strike Force Five podcast — Jimmy Kimmel, Jimmy Fallon, Seth Meyers, and John Oliver — at the same time.
The result is as hilarious and ridiculous as you'd expect, with jokes and anecdotes gradually leading on to a game in which the hosts hold up paddles to vote for which one of them is most likely to do various things. Fallon and Colbert even share a brief kiss.
If you want to know when the last episode of the Late Show will air and how to watch it, we've got you covered.
