Samsung's Galaxy Z TriFold was a brave experiment that largely worked out well, but the experiment might be coming to an end. A new report from Korean outlet Donga claims that Samsung is ending the sales of the TriFold in Korea just three months after launch. In the U.S., the TriFold is still available, but sales will only continue until the current production volume is sold out. For such a novelty device – the first Samsung tri-folding phone to hit the mass market – the TriFold was a success. Reviewers loved it (I've tried it briefly, and was impressed by the size and quality of its display when fully unfolded), and it was sold out shortly after launch (though this may be attributed to production volume being small), despite its high price tag of $2,899. But Donga cites industry sources as saying that the TriFold, while successful, had such high production costs that it was unprofitable even at that price. The costs further increased after the prices of certain parts, including memory chips, have risen through the roof. The report quotes industry insiders as saying that the TriFold was a product to showcase Samsung's tech prowess, and that it was never intended to generate major sales revenue. SEE ALSO: Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra review: I might be done with iPhones The question is whether Samsung will follow up with another tri-folding device, or perhaps use some of the tech from the TriFold in one of its upcoming foldables. The company is likely to launch new Galaxy Z Fold 8 and Flip 8 next summer, and a possible "Wide" version of the Galaxy Z Fold is rumored as well.

The Oscars are never just about the awards.Every year, Hollywood’s biggest night delivers a mix of speeches that range from meandering to heartwarming, unexpected wins, awkward jokes, and the occasional moment that immediately takes over the internet. The 2026 Academy Awards were no exception.From a historic cinematography win to an Oscars crowd waving K-pop light sticks, this year’s ceremony delivered plenty of memorable moments — along with a few that didn't quite land.Here are the best and worst moments from the 2026 Oscars.BEST: Conan O'Brien as Aunt Gladys Leave it to Conan O'Brien to kick off the ceremony with a bit of absurdist physical comedy. During a pretaped opening segment, the host channeled Aunt Gladys from Weapons, a character whose chaotic energy helped earn Amy Madigan the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress. In the clip, O'Brien as Gladys is chased through town by a gaggle of children before eventually bursting onto the Oscars stage, children in tow. BEST: Ryan Coogler and Sinners winning anything Even if Sinners didn’t ultimately take home Best Picture, the film still had a huge night. Ryan Coogler won his first Oscar for Best Original Screenplay, while Michael B. Jordan picked up Best Actor, giving the film some of the ceremony's most meaningful victories. After becoming the most nominated film in Oscar history, the wins felt like a well-earned victory lap for one of the year's biggest cultural moments.WORST: Cutting off the "Golden" songwriters mid-speech Credit: Stewart Cook/Disney via Getty Images One of the more awkward moments of the night came when the songwriters behind "Golden" from KPop Demon Hunters were cut off mid-acceptance speech by the orchestra. It's a familiar Oscars problem — heartfelt speeches getting rushed for time — but the abrupt cutoff felt especially unfortunate given how big the song has been all year (and how long the Bridesmaids bit ran before it).WORST: The Bridesmaids reunion that ran a little long Credit: Frank Micelotta/Disney via Getty Images The Bridesmaids reunion delivered a fun hit of comedy nostalgia, with the cast reuniting on stage to celebrate the comedy's 15th anniversary and to present Best Original Score. But what started as a charming throwback slowly stretched into one of the ceremony's longer presentation bits. When winners are getting their speeches cut short, even great comedians can feel like they're taking up too much time.BEST: Autumn Durald Arkapaw makes Oscars history Credit: Photo by Rich Polk/Penske Media via Getty Images One of the night's most meaningful wins came when Autumn Durald Arkapaw became the first woman ever to win the Oscar for Best Cinematography, a long-overdue milestone for the category. Moments like this are always a little bittersweet: on one hand, it's an incredible achievement for Durald Arkapaw — on the other, it's hard to believe the Academy is still hitting milestones like this in 2026. BEST: Michael B. Jordan's emotional Best Actor speech After winning Best Actor for his performance as twins Smoke and Stack in Sinners, Michael B. Jordan used his speech to thank longtime collaborator Ryan Coogler, saying the director gave him "an opportunity to be seen." It was one of the ceremony’s most heartfelt moments.Jordan also took a moment to honor the Black actors who came before him, saying, "I stand here because of the people who came before me: Sidney Poitier, Denzel Washington, Halle Berry, Jamie Foxx, Forest Whitaker, Will Smith."BEST: KPop Demon Hunters winning Best Animated Feature Credit: Patrick T. Fallon / AFP via Getty Images The internet’s favorite animated film finally capped off its dominant awards season run with an Oscar for Best Animated Feature. Director Maggie Kang delivered a powerful speech about representation, telling viewers, "This is for Korea and for Koreans everywhere." And as a fun treat for fans, an image of HUNTR/X appeared on the screen behind them, Rumi holding an Oscar. WORST: Sean Penn not showing upWhen Sean Penn won Best Supporting Actor, he wasn't there to accept the award. Presenter Kumail Nanjiani joked that the actor "couldn’t be here tonight… or didn’t want to be," which got a laugh but also underscored how odd it felt to hand out a major acting award without the winner present.BEST: The Oscars briefly becoming a K-pop concert During the performance of "Golden," singers EJAE, Rei Ami, and Audrey Nuna turned the Dolby Theatre into something closer to a K-pop concert, with stars like Leonardo DiCaprio, Teyana Taylor, and Emma Stone waving their light sticks in the air. The number also paid tribute to Korean culture, featuring traditional Korean pansori singers and drummers.BEST: Misty Copeland's surprise ballet moment The incendiary Sinners musical number featured a surprise appearance by ballet icon Misty Copeland, adding a striking moment of dance to the performance — and landing just a few feet away from Best Actor nominee Timothée Chalamet, whose recent ballet comments have been circulating online.BEST: A rare Oscars tieThe ceremony delivered a little welcome chaos when Best Live Action Short Film ended in a tie, with both The Singers and Two People Exchanging Saliva taking home the award. It's only the seventh tie in Oscars history, a rare moment that briefly disrupted the ceremony's tidy structure and leaned into delightful disarray.WORST: Trying a little too hard to be "online"During one particularly unfunny bit, O'Brien explained that the Oscars wanted to appeal to younger viewers, prompting a barrage of internet-adjacent jokes about "hostmaxxing" and references like "6–7." The Oscars have always tried to stay culturally relevant, but here the attempt at online humor felt less like making a connection and more like watching a brand discover Gen Alpha memes in real-time.BEST: A moving tribute to Rob Reiner The Oscars' In Memoriam segment honored the many artists the industry lost this year, but it paused for a particularly heartfelt tribute to Rob Reiner from his close friend Billy Crystal. "I met Mr. Rob Reiner in 1975 when I was cast as his best friend in an episode of All in the Family, and it went so well that Rob said, 'It was fun playing your best friend. Why don’t we keep it going?' And it was a thrill to see him evolve from a great comic actor to a master storyteller," Crystal said. BEST: Javier Bardem gets political This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed. Throughout the night, many winners alluded to the state of the world in careful, coded ways — speaking about choosing optimism, resilience, or the importance of art in difficult times without naming specifics. Javier Bardem didn't bother with the euphemisms. When he took the stage as a presenter, the actor delivered a brief but direct message: "No to war. Free Palestine." The moment cut through the ceremony's usual diplomatic language and briefly punctured the careful neutrality that tends to define awards shows.WORST: Conan O'Brien's post-credits sketch Post-credits scenes after the Oscars should be illegal. The telecast is already too long as it is! After the ceremony ended, the broadcast returned for a sketch where Conan O'Brien was “killed off” and replaced by YouTuber MrBeast — a gag that needed more context to understand and left viewers wondering if the show really needed one more joke.

Tonight's Moon may look like it is completely out of sight, but if it's a clear night you should be able to spot a very thin sliver of light.What is today’s Moon phase?As of Monday, March 16, the Moon phase is Waning Crescent. According to NASA's Daily Moon Guide, 4% of the Moon will be lit up tonight.Unfortunately, too little of the Moon is lit up to be able to spot any features on its surface tonight.When is the next Full Moon?In North America, the next Full Moon is predicted to take place on April 1.What are Moon phases?According to NASA, the Moon takes roughly 29.5 days to orbit Earth, passing through eight distinct phases along the way. Although we always see the same side of the Moon, the amount illuminated by the Sun shifts as it moves, which is why it can appear full, half-lit, or just a thin sliver at different times in the cycle. These shifting appearances are known as the lunar phases, and there are eight altogether:New Moon - The Moon is between Earth and the sun, so the side we see is dark (in other words, it's invisible to the eye).Waxing Crescent - A small sliver of light appears on the right side (Northern Hemisphere).First Quarter - Half of the Moon is lit on the right side. It looks like a half-Moon.Waxing Gibbous - More than half is lit up, but it’s not quite full yet.Full Moon - The whole face of the Moon is illuminated and fully visible.Waning Gibbous - The Moon starts losing light on the right side. (Northern Hemisphere)Third Quarter (or Last Quarter) - Another half-Moon, but now the left side is lit.Waning Crescent - A thin sliver of light remains on the left side before going dark again.

Welcome to your guide to Pips, the latest game in the New York Times catalogue.Released in August 2025, the Pips puts a unique spin on dominoes, creating a fun single-player experience that could become your next daily gaming habit.Currently, if you're stuck, the game only offers to reveal the entire puzzle, forcing you to move onto the next difficulty level and start over. However, we have you covered! Below are piecemeal answers that will serve as hints so that you can find your way through each difficulty level.How to play PipsIf you've ever played dominoes, you'll have a passing familiarity for how Pips is played. As we've shared in our previous hints stories for Pips, the tiles, like dominoes, are placed vertically or horizontally and connect with each other. The main difference between a traditional game of dominoes and Pips is the color-coded conditions you have to address. The touching tiles don't necessarily have to match. SEE ALSO: Wordle today: Answer, hints for March 16, 2026 The conditions you have to meet are specific to the color-coded spaces. For example, if it provides a single number, every side of a tile in that space must add up to the number provided. It is possible – and common – for only half a tile to be within a color-coded space.Here are common examples you'll run into across the difficulty levels:Number: All the pips in this space must add up to the number.Equal: Every domino half in this space must be the same number of pips.Not Equal: Every domino half in this space must have a completely different number of pips.Less than: Every domino half in this space must add up to less than the number.Greater than: Every domino half in this space must add up to more than the number.If an area does not have any color coding, it means there are no conditions on the portions of dominoes within those spaces.

KPop Demon Hunters' uplifting anthem "Golden" has won the Academy Award for Best Original Song, with the Netflix film taking the Oscars for both its nominated categories. However, while Kpop Demon Hunters' directors Maggie Kang and Chris Appelhans were able to deliver heartfelt acceptance speeches for Best Animated Feature Film, the songwriters of "Golden" were conspicuously cut off when their own moment came. SEE ALSO: 'Kpop Demon Hunters' director delivers emotional Oscars speech about representation "Growing up, you know, people made fun of me for liking K-pop," said a tearful EJAE, still wearing the outfit she had performed "Golden" in earlier in the night. "But now everyone's singing our song, and all the Korean lyrics. I'm so proud. And I realise the song, this award is not about success, it's about resilience. And I'm just so grateful to our team."Alongside EJAE, the Oscar also went to fellow songwriters Mark Sonnenblick, Joong Gyu Kwak, Yu Han Lee, Hee Dong Nam, Jeong Hoon Seo, and Teddy Park. Unfortunately, the Oscars didn't give them the opportunity to speak as well. Though Lee stepped up to the microphone after EJAE and began reading a prepared speech, he was abruptly cut off by loud music, signaling to the group to get off the stage. They briefly attempted to continue, pleading with the production via gestures, but were not permitted to do so.The decision to play off the songwriters was met with ridicule online, with some noting that EJAE's statement had been short and that other winners were given more time. The Oscars ceremony had also dedicated significant time to various skits earlier in the evening, including a lengthy bit featuring the cast of Bridesmaids reading notes ostensibly from the audience. As such, many on social media felt that cutting off KPop Demon Hunters' acceptance speech was a gross misallocation of time. This Tweet is currently unavailable.

Everyone is doing post-credits scenes now: Marvel, DC, even the Oscars.The 98th Academy Awards concluded not with One Battle After Another's Best Picture win, but rather with a post-credits scene teasing the future of the ceremony, which moves from ABC to YouTube starting in 2029. SEE ALSO: 2026 Oscar winners: Updating live The sketch parodies the death of One Battle After Another's Colonel Lockjaw (Academy Award winner Sean Penn), who is gassed by the white supremacist Christmas Adventurers Club for hiding his interracial relationship with Perfidia Beverly Hills (Teyana Taylor) and their child Willa (Chase Infiniti).In the sketch, a nervous Conan O'Brien fills in for Lockjaw. Fresh off his hosting gig, he meets with his comedy mentor Jim Downey (Saturday Night Live). Downey declares that O'Brien did such a good job, he's been declared "Oscar Host For Life."That title comes with a fancy new office and a deadly reveal. Like Lockjaw, O'Brien has been locked in. It's not long before he's been fatally gassed and sent to the crematorium. At the end of the Oscars, it's especially dark.It gets even darker. After O'Brien's demise, the plaque on his "Host For Life" office gets swapped out for that of the next host: YouTuber MrBeast.Don't worry, the plaque switch doesn't mean MrBeast is actually hosting the Oscars for life (or even next year). Instead, it's poking fun at the Oscars' imminent switch to YouTube, as well as the broadcast's attempts to stay relevant for younger viewers. O'Brien jokingly suggested some solutions throughout the night, including saying "hostmaxxing" and "6-7" while a Subway Surfers game was played alongside him.

Timothée Chalamet is now a four-time Best Actor loser at the Academy Awards, adding another near-miss to his growing collection after failing to take home the trophy for his role as Marty Mauser in Josh Safdie's Marty Supreme. Marty Supreme, with nine nominations, did not take home any Oscars. The competition was stiff, but Michael B. Jordan's electric dual performance in Sinners took home the award.For a very vocal corner of the internet, the loss was cause for celebration. This Tweet is currently unavailable.

Chalamet has been in the crosshairs lately, largely thanks to comments he made in an interview with Matthew McConaughey, in which he dismissed ballet and opera as arts "no one cares about." The full context of the remarks is more nuanced than the viral clip, but the backlash wasn't really about ballet anyway.It was the breaking point after years of Chalamet oversaturation, some say, driven by back-to-back blockbuster press cycles for A Complete Unknown and Marty Supreme, leaving large swaths of the internet completely exhausted by his existence.

Javier Bardem got straight to the point at the 98th Academy Awards.Before presenting the Academy Award for Best International Feature Film, Javier Bardem uttered six words: "No to war and free Palestine." SEE ALSO: Oscars 2026 live updates: Paul Thomas Anderson wins Best Director, awkward "Golden" moment It was the most overtly political statement made at this Oscars ceremony so far, one that began on the red carpet for Bardem.Bardem is sporting two notable pins: A large panel with bloody text reading "No a la guerra" (Spanish for "no to war"), and a circular pin reading "Palestine," along with the image of young boy, Handala, a character created in 1969 by cartoonist Naji al-Ali who has become a symbol of Palestinian resistance.On the red carpet, Bardem told the Associated Press that the "No a la guerra" pin is the same one he wore to the Oscars in 2003 to protest "the illegal Iraq war." "[The Oscars] is a great opportunity to say things like 'no to war, no to this illegal war that [is] creating so many deaths,'" he said.

KPop Demon Hunters' HUNTR/X showed the world how it's done, done, done with their Oscars performance of Academy Award-winning hit "Golden." SEE ALSO: Oscars 2026 live updates: See every major moment EJAE, Audrey Nuna, and Rei Ami — who provide the singing voices of HUNTR/X members Rumi (voiced by Arden Cho), Mira (voiced by May Hong), and Zoey (voiced by Ji-young Yoo) — took to the Oscars stage in commanding fashion. The performance recreated KPop Demon Hunters' prologue onstage before jumping into a high-energy concert filled with spinning golden flags and those killer high notes.Plus, HUNTR/X had a little help from the audience, who were holding light sticks that filled the Dolby Theater with — what else? — golden light. While the Oscars performance tragically cut a good chunk of "Golden," at least it gave us Leonardo DiCaprio with a light stick, right? The "Golden" performance is further proof of HUNTR/X's world domination. "Golden" hit number one on the Billboard Hot 100, making HUNTR/X the first K-pop girl group to achieve the feat. The song also took home the Grammy for Best Song Written for Visual Media and picked up four additional nominations, including Song of the Year. Earlier in the evening, KPop Demon Hunters won the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature. "Golden" also dominated this awards season, winning the Critics' Choice Award, Golden Globe for Best Original Song, and the Oscar for Best Original Song.

Before the envelopes are opened and the speeches begin, the Oscars deliver another kind of spectacle: the red carpet.The 2026 Oscars brought a wave of bold fashion moments to Hollywood’s biggest night, with nominees and presenters arriving in everything from dramatic couture gowns to sleek, modern tailoring.

Hong leaned into gothic glamour in a sheer black ruffled gown paired with a sharp pixie cut and cascading earrings, while Yoo brought classic elegance in a strapless two-tone ballgown with a pale blue bodice and dramatic navy skirt cinched by a sweeping black bow. Cho opted for full theatrical flair in a black lace mermaid gown from Korean designer Miss Sohee, accented by oversized sculptural green sleeves embroidered with delicate florals, creating an eye-catching fashion statement reminiscent of a traditional Korean hanbok.

The soft, fairytale silhouette was paired with a striking piece of history: a Chanel diamond necklace dating back to 1903, which added a touch of vintage glamour. Romantic and quietly magical, Fanning's look is fit for a winning moment. This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.
