The Galaxy Fold is finally out in stores in the US, which means brave souls can now dish out $2,000 to own the first widely available smartphone in the world with a foldable screen. We’ve told you time and again not to buy the handset because you’re probably going to destroy it… and because it’s a piece of junk. Specifically, the Galaxy Fold has a terrible design and the fragile display of the handset can break even if you’re super careful. The hinge is also problematic as it might collect dust and debris, which also means that water can get into the phone with relative ease. If you still think you have what it takes to buy the Galaxy Fold as it is right now rather than wait for a next-gen version that’s less of a piece of junk, then you should watch the following durability test video that shows not only how the phone handles impact with concrete, but also what happens after tens of thousands of folds.

At some point in the not-so-distant future, mankind will embark on a mission to another planet. That planet will be Mars, the largely barren, dusty rock that NASA and other scientific agencies around the world have been studying for decades. When humans eventually land on the planet, it might be the first time a living creature has set foot on Mars, but a new research paper suggests that we take measures to ensure something gets there before us.

At present, scientists can’t say for certain whether or not any life exists on Mars. Microbial life here on Earth has shown the ability to survive in extreme conditions, and it’s still possible something is alive on the Red Planet. But even if it’s not, the researchers behind this new study say we should send microscopic organisms to the nearby world right now to give it a jump start.

After a pretty slow month in September with only 41 new original movies and shows that were released, Netflix is cranking the volume up to 11 this month. That’s right, a whopping 67 new original movies, shows, and specials are set to debut in October on Netflix. Before we get to them, however, let’s make sure you didn’t miss anything big in September because there were definitely some big releases last month. Definitely check out the full September release schedule, which includes some great highlights like The Spy, Unbelievable, and the dark comedy The Politician. In fact, we would go as far as to say that The Spy is probably the most surprising series of the year so far on Netflix. Who knew Sacha Baron Cohen had that kind of range!?

Now that October is here, Netflix have a ton of big premieres to look forward to over the course of the month. A new season of Carmen Sandiego and a new Nikki Glaser stand-up comedy special start things off on Tuesday, October 1st, and then there are 12 more Netflix originals set to be released over the course of this week alone. The star of the show that week is of course Peaky Blinders season 5, which will be released in its entirety on Friday, October 4th. That gives you three days to make sure you’re caught up!

The rest of October is packed full of new Netflix original premieres including new movies, new seasons of top-rated shows, several debuts of new shows, and even an Arsenio Hall stand-up special near the end of the month. Of course, there’s one title that everyone is looking forward to more than anything else, and it has been the talk of the internet for the past few weeks. That’s right, El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie is finally set to be released on Friday, October 11th. For those somehow still unaware, this is the Breaking Bad prequel film that we’ve all been waiting for.

Want to see what other original content is set to be released by Netflix over the course of October? You’ll find the entire schedule below, complete with links to each Netflix page that’s currently available. If you want to see the full slate of everything coming and going this month including content from third-party studios instead of just Netflix, you’ll find it all right here.

The brand new Switch console suffers from the same problem of its bigger sibling, Joy-Con drifting, which can be a real annoyance. Nintendo has already promised free-of-charge fixes for all the affected controllers from the regular Switch, and it’s supposedly working on a second version of the Switch Lite as we speak in order to fix the problem. Despite the fact that the Switch Lite was just released last month, it turns out that a new version of the console may already be nearing release. That said, it’s unclear if this “Switch Lite v2” addresses the controller problem that’s currently plaguing users.
