Kanye West brings The Life of Pablo to Google Play Music All Access and Spotify

Alright folks, this isn’t an April Fools’ Day prank: Kanye West has brought his latest album, The Life of Pablo, to the major music streaming services, including Google Play Music All Access and Spotify. The album was initially released as an exclusive to the Tidal streaming service, and West had previously stated that it would remain that way.

The Life of Pablo is West’s seventh studio album, and features several guest vocalists, including Rihanna, Chance the Rapper, Frank Ocean, and The Weeknd. Interestingly, while the track listing for the album remains the same, a number of people are reporting that the tracks themselves have been updated and tweaked since their initial release on Tidal.

If you like to purchase your music, unfortunately you can buy The Life of Pablo from Google Play, though it is available for $20 directly from Kanye West’s website.

Muzik wants its smart headphones to do more than just share

Muzik’s smart headphones are set to arrive this spring, and the company is looking for more apps to integrate with its newfangled cans. Thanks to a hand from Microsoft, Muzik launched an SDK for Windows 10, iOS and Android that will allow apps and services to make use of the headphones’ smart keys. Muzik already announced the audio gear would allow to you share what you’re listening to via social networks, and the folks at Microsoft used the SDK to allow sharing to Slack as well.

“Muzik and Microsoft aim to create integrated user experiences between applications, games and hardware, which has not previously existed in the headphone category,” the SDK announcement explains. The headphones were announced back at CES, touting the ability to share tunes, photos and location info to social channels like Twitter. In fact, Twitter invested in the company, but details on the partnership have been rather scarce. Hopefully we’ll hear more about what the two have planned, and the fruits of the SDK release, when Muzik’s $299 over-ear model launches in the coming weeks.

Uncovering the glory and gore of a 1970s South American cult

It’s 1970 and you’ve abandoned the cruel machinery of modern society and started fresh in a South American jungle. You’re surrounded by like-minded folks — people fed up with wars, poverty, segregation and corruption — and you all contribute in some way to the fledgling commune. It’s led by two charismatic leaders with grand ideas about the future of humanity. Outsiders call it a cult.

Everything goes well, until one of your comrades is repeatedly caught stealing food from the storage unit — a heinous crime in such a small, tightly knit community. If the commune were still a part of larger society, its leaders would throw the thief in jail. But there is no jail in the jungle, and your leaders have no plans to implement a costly prison system. What do you do with the rule-breaker? How do you make him fall in line so the entire commune doesn’t come apart at the seams?

A fellow member suggests an option that would not only teach the thief a lesson, but send a message to the entire community: Chain him up and publicly beat him until the dirt runs red.

“It’s not that I condone that behavior, but you could see how, in that sort of environment, there would be an ethical debate about, should we torture people? How much should we torture them?” asks Richard Rouse III, a veteran game developer who’s spent a lot of time pondering questions about commune life.

Rouse isn’t a fledgling cult leader, but he is intrigued by the mechanisms of alternative societies. His latest game, The Church in the Darkness, is set in a fictional South American commune called Freedom Town in the 1970s. Its leaders, Isaac and Rebecca Walker of the Collective Justice Mission, preach socialism and sustainable agricultural living in a Christian society.

On the surface, the Walkers’ commune doesn’t sound like a terrible place to live. It’s on the fringe and extreme, to be sure, but its systems aren’t inherently evil, exploitative or dangerous. At least, not at first.

Playing as Vic, a former law enforcement officer, you sneak around Freedom Town in a top-down perspective, attempting to locate your nephew, Alex, who voluntarily left the United States to join the commune. Freedom Town isn’t particularly friendly to visitors, so Vic treads lightly, sticking to the shadows behind dusty, tin-roof huts and steering clear of any red-adorned elite guards. Players get to choose their play style: conduct a nonlethal, stealthy invasion or go in guns blazing.

The commune is different in every play-through. Sometimes Isaac and Rebecca are harsh, authoritarian rulers inflicting punishment on their followers for the slightest of missteps, and other times they’re fun-loving, understanding leaders. Half the game is figuring out which kind of commune you’re sneaking around.

Each story unfolds mainly through Isaac and Rebecca’s regular updates over the camp’s PA system — and these should be infinitely entertaining, considering the couple is voiced by celebrated husband-and-wife voice actors Ellen McLain (GLaDOS in Portal) and John Patrick Lowrie (The Sniper in Team Fortress 2).

Rouse met Lowrie back when he was building the 2004 horror game, The Suffering, and Rouse thought he’d be a great fit for The Church in the Darkness — after all, Lowrie was once a “traveling hippie musician” with friends who once belonged to communes. Though they’ve lent their skills to numerous titles, this is Lowrie and McLain’s first gig in which they’re portraying a married couple in a game, and they’ve been providing input from the beginning of development.

“That’s the cool thing I find about being indie like this, is you can just go try to get this creative person and this creative person, and [collaborate],” Rouse says. “That’s not always as possible when you’re working on the bigger projects.”

On top of the announcements, the game’s scenery is packed with clues about each commune’s systems. Documents, sounds and landmarks shed light on Freedom Town’s true purpose every time you load a new game. In one play-through, Isaac may thank his followers for constructing a basketball court (he’s a huge hoops fan), and in others, he might growl through the PA system, demanding to know who destroyed his court. You may spot a wooden pole surrounded by chains and blood, or see “HELP US” spelled out with tree branches in a secret clearing — signs that your nephew, Alex, could be in trouble.

“The game has a lot of immersive SIM-type of qualities you might find in Dishonored or something like that, but it’s trying to be grounded in reality as much as possible,” Rouse says.

Freedom Town takes inspiration from real-life cults, communes and fringe groups. Rouse is particularly intrigued by the Source Family, a spiritual commune that took root in the Hollywood Hills in the late 1960s. Led by James Edward Baker, known as Father Yod, the Source Family attracted more than 100 followers and valued nature, organic vegetarian diets and communal living (and copious amounts of sex, as it happens). Eventually, the group moved to Hawaii — and that’s when Baker realized how difficult it was to run a utopian society, Rouse says.

In 1975, Baker, by then a self-declared god, attempted to hang-glide with no previous experience. He crash-landed and died that day. After mourning his death, some of his commune members remained in Hawaii, while some joined other fringe groups and still more reverted to traditional lives, working at places like Goldman Sachs, Rouse says.

The Source Family was passionate, innovative and wild, but it wasn’t evil.

“You hear less about those types of groups, where it’s like they tried to do something just as progressive and radical, but then they pulled back before oblivion,” Rouse says. “That was what interested me: How do you know which type of group and how do you interpret it?”

Another community that inspired Rouse was Rajneeshpuram, a mystical, sex-focused community that attempted to settle in Oregon in the 1980s. After arguing with locals over land, Rajneeshpuram followers ended up carrying out the largest biological warfare attack in US history: They sprayed the salad bars of local restaurants with salmonella, poisoning 750 people.

Rouse recognizes the strangeness and corruption that often seeps into communities like the Source Family and Rajneeshpuram, but he also sees their ingrained humanity. In researching communes and cults, he discovered a common thread among many former followers: They repeatedly claimed they weren’t brainwashed or crazy, and they looked back fondly at their time in the communes. Their intentions were noble, even if ego and power eventually won out.

“You don’t join a cult because you’re a weak person,” Rouse says. “You join it because you want to change the world or you have a really strong viewpoint or you can imagine the world could be better. So, you’re going to join this group and see if you can make a go of it.”

That’s something Rouse wants to inject into The Church in the Darkness when it launches on Steam, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One early next year: humanity. Isaac and Rebecca are extreme, but they can also be compassionate and caring. Or they can be power-hungry monsters. It all depends on which story you see.

Egypt blocked Facebook’s Free Basics over surveillance requests

Facebook was forced to abandon its Free Basics program in Egypt after refusing to facilitate government surveillance, according to a report by Reuters. The news agency refers to two unnamed sources who are supposedly familiar with the matter, each confirming the disagreement and its relation to the shutdown last December. Free Basics had only been available for two months, through an agreement with the domestic carrier Etisalat. The service is part of Facebook’s internet.org, an initiative which provides free access to some “basic” applications including Facebook.

Reuters’ report is light on detail. It doesn’t mention when the talks took place or what type of access the government was requesting. What is clear, however, is that Facebook refused to comply with the demands. Facebook and Etisalat are yet to comment on the matter. Mohamed Hanafi, a spokesperson for Egypt’s Ministry of Communication, gave Reuters a different explanation, however. He said it was a regulator’s decision:

“The service was offered free of charge to the consumer, and the national telecommunication regulator saw the service as harmful to companies and their competitors.”

Since the closure, Facebook’s internet.org has been forced to pull out of India too. That decision, however, was due to wider criticisms about Free Basics and its effect on net neutrality. By supplying free access to a select group of services, the argument goes that Facebook was discouraging alternative sites and apps. As a result, not all data was being treated equally — an action that breaks the spirit of net neutrality. India and Egypt are massive markets, but it doesn’t spell the end of Free Basics just yet. The service is still live in 37 countries, including Thailand and Mexico.

Hacker claims he helped swing Mexican election

A Bloomberg Businessweek report centered on a Colombian online campaign strategist alleges he hacked political rivals to engineer results in elections across nine Latin American countries.

The man, Andrés Sepúlveda, is currently serving a 10-year prison sentence for offences related to hacking during Colombia’s 2014 presidential election. But talking to Bloomberg, he alleges that his involvement in politics in the region runs far deeper. The full article runs almost 5,000 words, exposing a vast array of hacking activity.

Sepúlveda alleges that the money for these operations came from Juan José Rendón, a Venezuelan political consultant based in Miami. Rendón vehemently denies his involvement, and says emails provided to Bloomberg as proof were faked.

Assignments that Sepúlveda claims he was handed range from mundane activity like protecting a Honduran candidate from other hackers, or stealing opponents’ email databases to spam accounts with disinformation. But some are far more nefarious. Perhaps the most ostentatious allegation he makes is that he was paid to ensure Mexico’s Institutional Revolutionary Party’s (PRI) candidate, Peña Nieto, won the country’s election in 2012.

Sepúlveda claims he was given a $600,000 war chest to ensure victory, and assembled a team of hackers to make it happen. The team, he says, installed router malware at the headquarters of PRI’s main opponents. and used that to tap into phones and computers in the buildings. With this link established, he could read campaign schedules and speeches before they were even finished, and read confidential emails between campaign team members.

He then used both fake, hand-written accounts and an army of 30,000 Twitter bots, using this confidential information to give his candidate the upper hand. In one example of it all coming together, Bloomberg says Sepúlveda discovered a candidate’s weaknesses among voters in an internal staff memo, and started stoking that fear to make the topic trend on Twitter.

Other tactics allegedly used during the campaign include faking 3am robo-calls from political rivals on election eve, or starting a (fake) movement of gay men backing a candidate to alienate his heavily Catholic voter base.

Rendón acknowledges that he has worked with PRI candidates for 16 years, but says his working relationship with Sepúlveda never extended past website design. Sepúlveda, for his part, admits that candidates in some elections may not have been aware that he was even involved, let alone breaking the law. Since being incarcerated, he says he’s been working on behalf of the government to “track and disrupt drug cartels” using a modified version of the software he created to hack campaigns. He also claims he can identify ISIS recruiters on Twitter within minutes of them signing up, and says he wants to share the software he uses to do it with the US and other countries fighting the terrorist organization.

Sepúlveda’s story is truly stunning, and Bloomberg was able to corroborate parts of the narrative, although admits that not all details could be independently verified. One anonymous source in the Mexican campaign “substantially confirmed Sepúlveda’s accounts of his and Rendón’s roles in that election.”

The best standing desks

By Mark Lukach and Nathan Edwards

This post was done in partnership with The Wirecutter, a buyer’s guide to the best technology. Read the full article here.

Three years ago, The Wirecutter was the first publication to pit all of the major standing desks against one another in a head-to-head test. After spending hundreds of hours testing 13 desks over the years, we can say that the Ergo Depot Jarvis Bamboo (configured with a 60-inch bamboo desktop, cable management, and the handset upgrade) is the best standing desk for most people. It’s as reliable as desks costing more than $1,500, but it provides more stability, sells for half the price, and comes with a seven-year warranty that eclipses the one- to five-year policies its competitors offer.

We also recommend getting our pick for the best standing-desk mat, which will provide support for your feet and relieve pressure on your heels, back, legs, neck, and shoulders to help you stand longer and mitigate injury risks.

Who should buy this and why

If you have a desk job, making sure you move around during the day and alternate between sitting and standing can help keep you healthy and injury-free. (But if you’re reading this, you probably already knew that.) You can find a staggering amount of convincing research about the perils of sitting, though as more data comes in, it’s beginning to look like the problem isn’t sitting per se, but the opportunity cost of sitting, namely a lack of physical exercise (standing all day isn’t any better for you).

You should consider an adjustable standing desk if you spend most of your day working at a desk—especially if you have some control over what kind of desk you work at, and particularly if you work from home, as a growing number of people do.

Before you buy it, try it

We’re big believers in starting cheap: One of our testers worked at his kitchen counter for a year before he bought anything. You could also stack boxes or books on your desk so that you can give it a shot—just make sure the ergonomics are right.

You can easily piece together a makeshift standing desk, like Colin Nederkoorn’s $20 IKEA hack, the Standesk 2200. Mat Honan, BuzzFeed’s Silicon Valley bureau chief, built one at his office when he worked at WIRED. “I think I may have been the first person at WIRED to build one, and now there are eight people at the office who have one, too,” Honan told us. “It’s cheap and easy and it looks good.”

What to do if you have a laptop

Whether you’re sitting or standing, the ergonomics of a laptop are awful. The screen is right by the keyboard, rather than up at eye level, so either your hands are in the wrong place or your neck is at the wrong angle. If you work at a laptop, get a stand to raise the screen to eye level, and purchase a separate keyboard and mouse so that your forearms are parallel to the floor; otherwise you’re going to end up with neck or wrist issues. If you use the IKEA hack linked above, put your keyboard and mouse on the lower shelf and your laptop on the top one. For more options, check out our full guide.

How we picked and tested

After deciding to focus primarily on electronic adjustable desks (thanks to their positive effect on your long-term health, as well as their popularity, reliability, and cost-effectiveness), we brought it in a total of 13 standing desks for testing.

Testing began as soon as the packages arrived. Before using the desks, we factored in how long it took to arrive, how many boxes it came in, and ease of assembly. One of our testers set up desks in his garage on concrete and also on a piece of carpeting, to best emulate most offices. He tried to work at each desk for several hours a day over the course of a week, and varied the height multiple times each hour to see how consistently responsive each desk was. He also paid attention to the subjective category of aesthetics, which in the world of furniture clearly matters.

Our pick

The Ergo Depot Jarvis is a great (and great-looking) desk for the money. Photo: Kevin Purdy

The Ergo Depot Jarvis Bamboo has all the essential features of a great standing desk you’d expect to cost more than $1,500, but for about half that. It has the most stable frame of any desk we’ve tested because Ergo Depot redesigned the frame so that the larger, heavier end of the lifting column is on the bottom—most desks using the original design have the opposite arrangement. This results in minimal wobble, even when fully extended up to 50 inches (which includes the height of the desktop itself). That’s high enough to fit people as tall as 6’7″ or so—whereas most desks top out at either 45 or 48 inches.

The height adjustment is controlled by a wired remote that has four presets; that means you can customize ideal sitting and standing heights for up to two people. It’s driven by a reliable electrical motor that can raise or lower at 1.3 inches per second (in line with other desks in this price range). Additionally, Ergo Depot also offers an array of functional, unpretentious accessories, like a wire-management bundle that contains a six-outlet power strip, a raceway for cable organization, and a bunch of zip ties (and mount points for those zip ties). The desk comes with a seven-year warranty and ships quickly. And if you already have a desktop you like, you can buy the frame by itself—it adjusts to work with desktops of many different sizes.

For converting your existing desk

If you already have a desk that you like and you don’t want to commit to a full-size sit/stand desk, consider the Ergo Desktop Kangaroo Pro Junior. It sits on top of your existing desk and converts from sitting to standing position in seconds without electricity. Instead of motors, the Kangaroo uses pneumatic springs to lift its work surface, and you lower it by pushing it down manually. It’s much lighter and less bulky than other conversion options like those from VARIDESK, and you can easily move it around your desk if you need to.

Microsoft’s diversity should mirror its keynote

At Build 2016, Microsoft offered a glimpse at the company’s future. We saw a preview of new universal apps, Linux development within Windows 10, a HoloLens update and its brand new Cortana-fueled AI strategy. But we might have also had a peek at another side of Microsoft, one that is attempting to acknowledge and perhaps overcome its diversity issues.

During the company’s keynote, four out of 11 Microsoft employees who presented on stage were women (there was one non-employee: Pamela Davis, Case Western Reserve University medical school dean). That’s not quite 50 percent, but it’s still an impressive number. Especially when you consider that most tech keynotes don’t usually have so many women on stage. Apple’s keynote a couple weeks ago had one woman out of five presenters; its iPhone event last year had three out of 14. Last year’s Google I/O featured three women out of nine.

It’s even more noteworthy when you consider Microsoft’s latest faux pas. A couple weeks ago, it hired several scantily-clad women to dance at a company-hosted party during the annual Game Developer’s Conference in San Francisco. It was a bad look for a company that has made public statements pledging to increase diversity within its ranks.

Microsoft admits it, too: Shortly after it received criticism for the party, head of Xbox Phil Spencer apologized, stating: “We must ensure that diversity and inclusion are central to our everyday business and core values. We will do better in the future.”

The fact that four out of 11 — that’s 37 percent! — of presenters at the firm’s developer conference are women is certainly better. It’s also great to see that these women on stage were not necessarily marketing executives, but engineers and product managers, people who are immersed in the day-to-day technological side of creating a product. Ashley Speicher is an Xbox game dev, Lilian Rincon is the principal group manager from the Skype team, Lili Cheng is an engineer and Cornelia Carapcea is a senior product manager for Microsoft’s cognitive services.

That said, Microsoft’s efforts shouldn’t stop there. It’s all well and good to make a show of diversity at a keynote, but it’s more important to increase diversity efforts within the company as a whole. At last check, 26.8 percent of Microsoft’s global organization are women, while only 17 percent of both tech and leadership positions are filled by women.

But it’s good to see Microsoft at least make an attempt. If the company cared enough to increase gender diversity on stage, perhaps that’ll translate to the rest of the firm. And, hopefully, to the tech industry as a whole.

Uber CEO faces class-action lawsuit over price fixing

After failing to get a class-action lawsuit dismissed, Uber CEO Travis Kalanick will go to court over price fixing claims. A US district court judge in New York ruled Kalanick has to face the class of passengers alleging that he conspired with drivers to set fares using an algorithm, including hiking rates during peak hours with so-called surge pricing. According to Reuters, district court judge Jed Rakoff ruled the plaintiffs “plausibly alleged a conspiracy” to fix pricing and that the class action could also pursue claims the set rates led to the demise other services, like Sidecar.

The ride-hailing app is no stranger to legal trouble. In addition to fighting for the right to operate in a number of countries outside of the US, Uber faced driver protests and criticism over benefits for full time employees and how it screens drivers. The company has also received a lot of scrutiny over its practice of charging higher rates during times of high demand. Earlier this year, New York City announced that it wouldn’t place limits on Uber’s surge pricing or limit the number of cars it could put on the city’s streets. We’ve reached out to Uber on the matter and we’ll update if/when it responds.

The return of comments

Last Friday, we announced that we were taking a week-long hiatus from the open comments section — a decision we anticipated a lot of feedback on. What we didn’t anticipate was that a good amount of it would be positive. Here are some of the things we heard from readers via email and social media:

“So glad you’re doing this concerning the comments section. I wish a lot of other content sections would do the same.”

“This was a great move on Engadget’s part since it is quite disgusting seeing what some people post at times. Thanks.”

“Do you Engadget! I will remain loyal!”

“As a long time Engadget reader, and somebody who has never commented, I feel compelled to inform you I will not be frequenting your site again until the comments are turned back on.”

Well, we have good news for that last person — and everyone else who has missed the comments section — because today, as promised, we’re turning the comments back on. So… now what?

Not every single post will have an open comments section; much like before the comment break, some stories will not have comments because they concern topics that, in the past, have proven incendiary and difficult to moderate. We aim to eventually have comments open on all stories, and there’s more on how you can help with that below.

One of the things that was most clear when we turned off comments last week was that our comments section had become a problem — it wasn’t serving you, our readers, with a great community. Readers were sidestepping our comments section like something unsavory on a sidewalk, while others were coming just to watch the insults be hurled and the fighting commence. The relationship between our editors and writers and our commenters was often antagonistic. In short, no one was happy with the situation.

So, consider this an olive branch — we’d like to work with you to make this a better online community. We want a comments section full of interesting, informed observations, unique and well-phrased opinions, and some quality constructive criticism. We’ll be working on rolling out features to make this happen, the first of which will be in-line moderator tools. This means we’ll be looking for volunteer moderators — because no one can moderate a comments section better than its own members. If you’re interested in that, send us an email here.

Comments will be increasingly moderated; because there has been some confusion about what does and does not qualify for removal here are a list of the types of comments and behaviors that will get deleted. Please note, these are in addition to our standard set of guidelines which include no sexism, racism, homophobia, or personal attacks:

• No more name calling. Oddly enough, calling someone an idiot or a fanboy rarely results in a productive or civil conversation. (I know, strange right? I always want to have lengthy discussions with people who start off by insulting me…Oh wait. No, I don’t and neither does anybody else.) Here’s the thing: This isn’t a grade school playground and if you can’t argue your point without being disparaging and disrespectful then what you need to do is improve your argument. This counts everything from “You’re an idiot” to “Stupid fanboy” or “SJW!” or “Dirty Republican scum!” or what have you.
• While we’re okay with the PG-13 level swear words, anything above that is probably going to get flagged by our mods. Any time you’re swearing AT someone, that comment is getting deleted, period. Don’t drop those f-bombs please.
• No threats or suggestions of violence or self-inflicted violence. That means no more “kill yourself” or “you should jump off a bridge” or “you sound like you need to get punched in the face.” Those comments will absolutely always be deleted, and if you make them repeatedly, your account might be as well.
• If you only come to Engadget to tell us how much we suck, to call us biased shills (without backing up that statement with facts), to tell us our articles suck and that you hate our website well then… We’re probably going to delete your comments. We may even ban or remove your account. Because there’s a difference between constructive criticism when we’ve left out a pertinent fact or misspelled someone’s name, and those who apparently only visit to complain about articles that no one is forcing them to read.
• It’s (clearly) fine to debate the merits of your OS of choice, but having every article that mentions either Apple or Google (and even some that don’t) devolve into people lobbing insults and arguments is getting really old. If you’re singing the same iOS vs Android tune in an article that has nothing to do with either, we’re just going to start Rick-rolling you.

I am…almost certainly not kidding about that.

In short, if you find yourself wondering if a comment is going to be a problem, ask yourself the question our mods do: Does this contribute to the conversation? And: Can I back this up with verifiable facts?

Now, another reason for the break was so we could get the moderation tools ready and we’ll be looking to roll out more features consistently. Here’s what we’re working on for the comments section:

• Log-ins: Currently, log-in certificates last about 18 hours which is why you need to log in to comment (even if you were logged in the previous day). We’re trying to push that to at least 24, ideally more like 36 hours, but regardless we want to have a pop up box alert you when you start typing and aren’t logged in yet.
• Notifications. You will be notified when someone replies to one of your comments, or a new comment appears in a thread you’ve commented in or are following. You will. IT WILL HAPPEN.
• Profiles. It clearly helps foster a feeling of community when you know who the members are. Because we do take pride in our community, and we want you to as well, we’ll be rolling out full community profiles that includes a history of all that persons comments.

In the meantime, I’ll be including updates on the progress with comments in the Public Access Weekly posts, and via social media. If you have suggestions, or feelings, or adorable animal GIFs feel free to leave ’em below. In the comments section.

Eerie adventure ‘Everybody’s Gone to the Rapture’ heads to PC

Everybody’s Gone to the Rapture was one of my favorite games that came out in 2015. Yes, it’s one of those divisive “walking simulators,” but the intriguing narrative and stunning depiction of rural England had me hooked. Today, developer The Chinese Room has confirmed what’s been rumored for almost three months now — that the game is coming to PC. There’s no release date just yet, but when it does arrive it’s safe to assume it’ll be available on Steam. If you’ve opted for a PC gaming rig over a PlayStation 4, this is your chance to see what the fuss is all about.

It’s been the worst-kept secret, but it’s now official… Rapture will be coming to PC! No release date yet, but we’ll keep you posted!
