Welcome to the new look of The Morning After. With some changes to the backend here at Engadget, we’ve adjusted how we do things in a way that should hopefully make our daily newsletter look and feel even better. Expect to see more changes soon, and let us know if anything is broken or even just bent.
Hopefully, the changes leave you in a better mood than Bubba Wallace, the NASCAR driver who logged out 11 laps into the Food City Showdown from Bristol Motor Speedway on Sunday night after another driver hit him. Sure, it’s just a game… er iRacing esports simulation, but because this one was being broadcast live on Fox, his sponsor responded by dropping Wallace. The driver was already back in action Monday night with a different sponsor’s logo on his Richard Petty Motorsports #43 stock car.

They're urging a stop to attacks based on false 5G coronavirus conspiracies.

Boeing’s Starliner will make another uncrewed test flight
Take two.
In December, Boeing’s Starliner failed to reach the correct orbit and dock at the International Space Station. In light of that issue and other glitches, the company is now planning a second uncrewed flight for its Commercial Crew Program vehicle, instead of moving forward to a crewed flight. In a statement, Boeing said, “We have chosen to refly our Orbital Flight Test to demonstrate the quality of the Starliner system. Flying another uncrewed flight will allow us to complete all flight test objectives and evaluate the performance of the second Starliner vehicle at no cost to the taxpayer.” Continue reading.

Enable it in the Face Unlock menu and you’ll have to be awake and at least vaguely lucid to get into your phone. Continue reading.
Review: Samsung Galaxy Chromebook
That 4K screen comes at a major cost.
Google has been selling expensive, high-end Chromebooks for years now. But last year, the company changed tactics. The Pixelbook Go was “only” $650, a far cry from the $1,000-plus the company asked for its previous Chromebooks. But if you’re after the fanciest of Chromebooks, then Samsung is where you should be looking. According to reviewer Nathan Ingraham, Samsung’s new Chromebook does a lot of things right -- the keyboard is great and the screen is beautiful. But for $999, its poor battery life is almost impossible to forgive. Continue reading.
