If you missed out on the insane deal on Amazon we told you earlier this week that slashes the Echo Dot to its lowest price of all time — JUST 99 CENTS!! — then we have some terrific news… the deal is still going! This deal is so crazy that when it first popped up back in October, many of the sites covering it thought Amazon had made a mistake. It turned out to be a legitimate promotion though, and now it’s back with the holidays right around the corner.

In a nutshell, Amazon is offering Prime members a $0.99 Echo Dot bundled with one month of its Amazon Music Unlimited service, which costs $7.99. That’s a total of $8.98, and people without Prime can get it for $10.98. The AMU subscription will automatically renew each month, of course, and if you’re smart you’ll keep it and ditch Spotify or Apple Music. Why? Because Amazon offers the same great streaming service as those other two options, but for less money.

If you’d rather stick with what you know, that’s okay too — just go to this page anytime after you place your order and you can cancel Amazon Music Unlimited. You can literally do it the instant after you place the order and you won’t have to worry about getting charged again, but you’ll still get to keep streaming for the rest of the month, and you’ll get a $0.99 Echo Dot! This deal is available to any and all people who have never subscribed to Amazon Music Unlimited before, but it’s only around for a limited time.

Echo Dot (3rd Gen) for $0.99 and 1 month of Amazon Music Unlimited for $7.99 with Auto-renewal…: $8.98

Here’s some additional info from the product page:

  • Get unlimited access to 50 million songs. Always ad-free.
  • Listen offline with unlimited skips.
  • Our most popular smart speaker – with a fabric design and improved speaker for richer and louder sound.

UFC 245 boasts three title fights this Saturday on ESPN+

%name UFC 245 boasts three title fights this Saturday on ESPN+ by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

What’s the perfect way to get ready for the holidays? By watching some of the most electrifying athletes in the world do battle in the desert. Bad blood is sure to boil again on Saturday, December 14 as three title fights will rage at UFC 245 on ESPN+. Taking place at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, NV, UFC fans are in for a treat as there are plenty of storylines to go around with this card. Rivalries will be rekindled and some new ones are sure to spark up.

The main bout is for the UFC Welterweight championship and features current champion Kamaru Usman taking on Colby Covington. There’s no love lost between these two as they’re set to do battle in the Octagon after previously jawing, trash talking and getting into an altercation in March at a Vegas hotel. So this is the perfect setting for them to put it all on the line.

Both are 15-1 and have held the Welterweight title, as Usman is the current champion and Covington is a former interim champion. Usman has won 14 straight fights and Covington comes in on a seven-fight win streak. Usman hasn’t lost since 2013 while Covington has been perfect since 2015. In Covington’s last fight, he set a record for most strikes thrown in a single fight with 541. So there’ll be a plenty of punches and kicks flying on Saturday.

Also on the main card, the men’s Featherweight championship is up for grabs as champion Max Holloway is set for another title defense, this time against Alex Volkanovski. Holloway has won his last 13 bouts at Featherweight including three pervious title defenses. He is the #7 best pound-for-pound fighter and comes into this fight on the heels of an impressive victory over Frankie Edgar in July at UFC 240. Volkanovski is a solid Australian striker who is ready to challenge for the title. He is surging off his biggest win in his last fight, taking down Jose Aldo at UFC 237 in May, bringing his current win streak to 17 straight. He hasn’t lost since 2013.

On the women’s side, one of the best to ever do it, Amanda Nunes, is set to do battle and close out the decade with another victory. She’ll take on the Dutch fighter Germaine de Randamie for the Bantamweight championship. Nunes, who currently holds both the Bantamweight and the Featherweight titles, is the first woman to hold two titles in two different weight classes. She hasn’t lost since 2014 and has defeated six current of former UFC champions.

As if this bout didn’t mean enough with the Bantamweight title on the line, de Randamie’s last loss came against Nunes, back at UFC: Fight for the Troops 3 in November of 2013. de Randamie is a decorated kickboxer who is on a five-fight winning streak. Her last fight ended in 16 seconds, after she TKO’d Aspen Ladd in July. de Randamie was the first Featherweight champion in UFC history before being stripped of that title, meaning she’s hungry for another shot at a belt.

The main card kicks off at 10 PM ET with battles between Jose Aldo and Marlon Moraes as well as Petr Yan and Urijah Faber. Aldo looks to rebound from that loss to Volkanovski and end the year by giving Moraes his seventh career loss. Faber is trying to go two for two this year after his win in July against Ricky Simon while Yan looks for a ninth consecutive victory and 14th of his career.

The night starts at 6:30 PM ET with the early prelims featuring Hooper/Teymur, Moreno/Kara-France, Eye/Araujo and Soriano/Piechota. These will be followed by the prelims beginning at 8 PM ET with the fights of Neal/Perry, Vieira/Aldana, and Brown/Saunders.

The only way for you to watch the main card is on ESPN+, so you’ll need to subscribe to make sure you don’t miss a minute of the action. You’ll be able to stream this on all your favorite devices, so you can watch it wherever you are. Be prepared for all the title fights by getting ESPN+ today.

The first PlayStation 5 game was just announced

%name The first PlayStation 5 game was just announced by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

When the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X launch next winter, they’ll each come with a bunch of brand new games, including first-party and third-party titles that are being developed in time for the launch of the two consoles. Microsoft stole The Game Awards show the other day with an unexpected reveal. The company showed us what Project Scarlett looks like and told us what it’s called, revealing several vital details about it in the process. We also saw an exciting trailer for a game that’s in the works for Series X, but it’s not just the new Xbox that got some love during the show. While the first game announcement for PS5 can’t be as exciting as Microsoft’s surprise, we still have a trailer for you that gives us a quick look at a PS5 title.

%name Microsoft just shared a bunch of key Xbox Series X secrets, but not the ones we want most by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

It finally happened, gamers! Microsoft stepped up to the plate to unveil not just the official name of Project Scarlett, but also the console’s design. I’m already a fan of the simple slab of gaming device Microsoft unveiled a few hours ago. It’s simple and subtle, and it’ll fit well with whatever entertainment setup you got going on. That’s apparently the point of the whole thing. The name isn’t as thrilling. Xbox Series X sounds confusing and boring, but, as I explained before, it’s a problem of Microsoft’s own making. However, the company is taking steps to streamline its marketing efforts, and that “Series” moniker suggests naming might be a lot easier down the road. These are just a couple of the Xbox Series X secrets that Microsoft is ready to reveal with almost a year to go until launch date.

%name SpaceX will send cannabis to the ISS in 2020 by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

The high-flying scientists who devote months and sometimes years of their lives to conducting science in space will be getting a very special package in early 2020. The next SpaceX resupply mission to the International Space Station will be carrying something with a sketchy legal history: cannabis.

Now, before you go imagining astronauts dabbling in mind-altering substances while cruising through space, you should know that it’s nothing like that. The ISS will instead be receiving cultures of hemp, which is the form of cannabis with very little THC, and is valued primarily for its industrial qualities.

%name Microsoft officially reveals Xbox Series X, coming holiday 2020 by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

In what is easily the most shocking reveal in the history of The Game Awards, Microsoft officially announced its next-gen Xbox near the beginning of the awards show. Xbox Series X is the name of the new console, and as you can see from the image above and the trailer below, it looks unlike any video game console we’ve ever seen before. Honestly, it looks more like a gaming desktop PC than it does like an Xbox One.

Of course, that’s rather appropriate, considering it will be an extraordinarily powerful machine. As Phil Spencer, Head of Xbox, explains on the Xbox Wire, the Xbox Series X delivers four times the power of the Xbox One X, and despite the potentially misleading image, supports both vertical and horizontal orientation.

FTC may seek injunction to prevent Facebook from merging chat features across Instagram, Messenger, and WhatsApp

%name FTC may seek injunction to prevent Facebook from merging chat features across Instagram, Messenger, and WhatsApp by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

The FTC may seek an injunction in order to prevent Facebook from tightly integrating features across its suite of messaging services. The potential injunction, The Wall Street Journal notes, arises out of fear that once the integration is complete, breaking up Facebook into disparate entities would become difficult, if not impossible.

Word of Facebook’s plan to merge chat features across Messenger, Instagram, and WhatsApp first surfaced earlier this year and is reportedly being championed by Mark Zuckerberg. Broadly speaking, the planned integration would enable users from one of Facebook’s properties to chat with users from any of the company’s other properties. As a simple example, an Instagram user would be able to seamlessly chat with a WhatsApp user even if the latter party doesn’t have an Instagram account.

At the TechCrunch Disrupt Berlin event today, Samsung Electronics president Young Sohn shared a revelation with the crowd about the company’s Galaxy Fold smartphones that might sound shocking to some people. In spite of the many flaws associated with Samsung’s first attempt at a foldable smartphone, it seems the company has sold 1 million units so far, up from an estimate of half a million from back in October.

And just in case you miss the point, Samsung definitely sees that as a win. Sohn was asked during today’s event if the company is still comfortable selling what’s “essentially a beta device” for almost $2,000. Sohn said yes it is, and that sales figure proves why.
