HUNTR/X stans, rejoice! The KPop Demon Hunters sing-along is returning to movie theaters, so you'll have a shot to watch the film somewhere other than your couch, couch, couch.

The sing-along, which slayed the box office during its original Aug. run, will be back in movie theaters from Oct. 31 to Nov. 2. Given its Halloween release, there's no better time to show off your HUNTR/X or Saja Boys cosplays.

Tickets for the sing-along go on sale Oct. 17 at 9 a.m. ET. The sing-along will be showing in the U.S. and Canada, along with international locations including the UK, Ireland, Korea, Spain, Germany, the Netherlands, Brazil, Mexico, Argentina, Chile, Australia, and New Zealand.

The re-release of the KPop Demon Hunters sing-along is further proof of the film's dominance across pop culture this year. KPop Demon Hunters became Netflix's most streamed movie of all time, while its soundtrack soared to the top of the charts. Eternal earworm "Golden" even hit #1 on the Billboard Hot 100.

KPop Demon Hunters' success has translated to other media as well, earning it a Fortnite collab and an entire Saturday Night Live sketch. Following the sketch, the singing voices of HUNTR/X — EJAE, Audrey Nuna, and Rei Ami — performed "Golden" for the first time on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon. (HUNTR/X's speaking voices are Arden Cho, May Hong, and Ji-young Yoo.)

Between these appearances and the return of the sing-along, it's clear that the KPop Demon Hunters party is far from done, done, done.

Elon Musk's X dropped its legacy verification program for users back when the platform was still known as Twitter. Since then, X has been a haven for misinformation and racism.

However, according to X's new head of product, Nikita Bier, the site is planning an overhaul to profiles in an attempt to restore user trust. In a post on X, Bier explained that the platform is currently testing out a new profile display that lists what country the user is based in, when they joined the site, how the user accessed X, and how many username changes the account has undergone.

This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.

X users can currently list their location in their profile. However, it appears the new profile information page is not user-generated. The platform will display where the account is based out of via the location the user actually posts from.

"When you read content on X, you should be able to verify its authenticity," Bier posted on X. "This is critical to getting a pulse on important issues happening in the world."

Bier says there will be "toggles" which will allow users to make specific information private in order to protect certain users' privacy. However, Bier says any information that's configured by a user will be highlighted so other users know too. Bier also shared that they are experimenting with exactly what information to include in this section as well, so new account data may be added or removed as X tests out the feature.

The blue verification badge was once an indicator that a user was a trustworthy source on X. However, after Musk acquired the company, he removed the old verification system which required that the company itself verify noteworthy users like politicians, journalists, and celebrities. Now, any user can pay $8 per month to sign up for X Premium and receive a blue verification badge. As a result, spammers and provocateurs have weaponized their verified status in order to spread scams and misinformation on the platform.

Meta, the parent company of Facebook and Instagram, provides similar types of information for certain pages and profiles on their platform. For example, a user can go to the about section of any Facebook Page and see the country of origin for the users behind the page, as well as any name changes the page has gone through.

According to Bier, X will begin rolling the new policy out on a "handful" of X employees' profiles in order to get feedback.

Search news articles about being "chronically online" and you’ll mostly dig up fluff pieces on celebs who spend too much time on X or TikTok (Joe Jonas just can't be without his phone!). Yet "chronically online" is also used by media outlets to describe people like Tyler Robinson, the man charged with killing right-wing activist Charlie Kirk. 

"Investigators say Robinson is what some would call chronically online — a person who spends an inordinate amount of time on messaging platforms, on social media, and playing video games,” according to NPR.

Is being chronically online simply a goofy trait or, rather, a gateway to loneliness, delusion, or even violence? The word "chronic" makes the description seem clinical, like a diagnosed disease, but chronically online is an unscientific term — and a descriptor open to much interpretation.

"I don’t think there is an agreement on how much online time is 'too much,' because it also depends on what one does on the internet," Carlos Gershenson-Garcia, an empire innovation professor at the State University of New York at Binghamton, tells Mashable. "I mean, many people work only using the internet, so they use it 40+ hours a week, plus for personal time. But then, if one [spends] the same amount of time on social media, that is a different story. Or playing online games. Or doomscrolling."

The phrase "chronically online" became somewhat ubiquitous during COVID when there was little to do besides walking, baking bread, and staring at the internet. As CNET (a sister site to Mashable) pointed out in 2021, certain millennials and members of Gen Z loved pointing out chronically online behavior among their peers, like regularly using verbiage exclusive to the internet (e.g., IRL, OOMF) or getting involved in debates with strangers. While those examples seem relatively innocuous, chronically online people can also gravitate from offline connections toward parasocial relationships, and get overly vested in disputes involving celebrities (Nicki Minaj v. Cardi B. seems to be a prime example).

Still, needlessly getting vested in a movie star's divorce may not be the best use of someone’s time, but it’s a far cry from being radicalized on Reddit to commit violence. 

"I think the key here is ‘chronically,' which, to me, denotes a medical condition," says John Fitzgerald, PhD, an associate professor of English at Salem State University who has written about technology for publications like the New York Times. "I think it has less to do with how much time a person spends online or even what they’re looking at and more to do with their immersion in online spaces."

Utah governor Spencer Cox described Robinson’s online behavior as traversing "that deep dark internet, the Reddit culture and these other dark places of the internet where this person was going deep."

SEE ALSO: Explaining the phenomenon known as 'AI psychosis'

Not mentioned by Cox was whether or not Robinson utilized AI chatbots, which have come under scrutiny for allegedly encouraging suicidal ideation among young people. The term AI psychosis has emerged as a way to describe someone who's lost connection to reality due to their relationship with an AI chatbot — but "AI psychosis," like "chronically online," is not a clinical term. Would clarification from medical experts on when online behavior crosses from simply unhealthy to downright dangerous help people before it’s too late? Maybe, but currently there is scant information on unhealthy internet behavior on HHS.com, the website of the government's Health and Human Services department. (The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Administration department, a division of HHS, does provide suggestions for kids and youth navigating the internet.)

Dangerous online behavior can emerge when a mix of unhealthy factors is at play, says Saed D. Hill, PhD, a psychologist and masculinity coach.

"Some signs [of dangerous online behavior] include when one's online engagement starts to really fuel social isolation, rigid belief systems, it's always us versus them, or aggression against certain groups...then it is probably shifting from basic coping and escapism to full-on radicalization or potential for violence," Hill says. "Social isolation, mixed with aggression, and having trouble with relationships is a big sign, though. This is exacerbated by things like drugs, alcohol, and access to weapons."

Hill encourages those concerned about a loved one's online behavior to join them in offline activities and simply engage with them more. Counseling and therapy are also beneficial for those struggling with online attachment; connecting with other humans to explore unmet needs is always a better solution than "turning to the digital echo chambers that tech companies profit and thrive off," says Hill.

Artists and creators love Pinterest for its ability to fuel creativity. It's the homepage for anyone who needs to brainstorm a theme for a party, wants to create a mood board for their upcoming year, or want to curate characteristics for a new cast in a novel they're writing. Over the past few years, though, Pinterest has become inundated with AI slop.

But this week, Pinterest gave its users the ability to filter out AI content, and fans are elated.

As pinterest says, here you can "Choose GenAI interests you’d like to see in your recommended Pins." Toggle off all of the GenAI interests you don't want to see, and keep the interests you want to see on. When you toggle an option off, Pinterest will pop up with the notice: "Turned off! You’ll start seeing fewer GenAI ideas for [topic] soon."

It's important to note that even if you turn off all of the GenAI interests, you still might see some AI-generated images on your Pinterest. After all, the popup reads: "You’ll start seeing fewer GenAI ideas for [topic] soon." Key word: fewer.

Anthropic announced Claude Haiku 4.5 on Wednesday, the latest version of its compact AI model designed for speed, affordability, and safety. The company says Haiku 4.5 delivers near-frontier-level performance — matching the coding capabilities of Claude Sonnet 4 at one-third the cost and twice the speed.

It’s now available across Anthropic’s apps, Claude Code, and through Amazon Bedrock and Google Cloud Vertex AI. Pricing is set at $1 per million input tokens and $5 per million output tokens.

SEE ALSO: Say hello to Claude Sonnet 4.5, which Anthropic calls 'the best coding model in the world'

Haiku 4.5 is also Anthropic’s safest model yet, according to the company’s internal evaluations. It scored lower on misalignment behaviors than even the flagship Claude Sonnet 4.5 and carries an AI Safety Level 2 classification — a less restrictive rating than the ASL-3 label given to Anthropic’s more advanced models. The lightweight model is aimed at developers and companies building real-time AI applications like chat assistants, coding copilots, and customer service tools.

But the timing of the launch is notable. Just this week, Bloomberg reported that Anthropic has become a target for criticism from the Trump administration’s AI czar, David Sacks, who accused the company of "regulatory capture" and "fear-mongering" over its support for California’s new AI transparency law. Cofounder Jack Clark pushed back, saying the company is aligned with the White House on most issues but continues to advocate for responsible federal oversight.

Taken together, the release of Haiku 4.5 could be seen as a balancing act. One that's trying to prove that AI safety and progress don’t have to be at odds — even as the political climate around those principles grows more hostile.

Twitch might not be known for its offline prowess, but every year, streamers and their fans gather at a convention center to discuss everything from learning how to shape a stream's story to meeting their favorite creators.

Let's talk about this year's TwitchCon.

What is TwitchCon?

Launched in 2015, TwitchCon is the biggest convention for Twitch creators and streamers and their fans. It brings together creators, influencers, industry professionals, and audiences for panels, performances, meet-and-greets, and behind-the-scenes conversations.

A decade later, people are still showing up.

SEE ALSO: Top Twitch streamers by follower count: See the list. How much does TwitchCon 2025 cost?

To attend TwitchCon 2025, you'll have to log in and verify your Twitch account and choose which ticket makes the best sense for you.

A three-day ticket costs $249, but individual day tickets, each costing $169 or $159, depending on the day, are also available. You'll have to pay a bit more for the TwitchCon Block Party and the Family Bundle.

When is TwitchCon 2025?

This year's TwitchCon will take place Oct. 17-19 in San Diego, California. Mashable will be at the San Diego Convention Center, talking to your favorite streamers and covering all the most interesting panels.

Which creators will be at TwitchCon 2025?

Hundreds of streamers will be at TwitchCon 2025, including bbno$, Ludwig, emiru, fuslie, TheSushiDragon, Trixie Mattel, Pearl Teese, Jessu, KreekCraft, Maya, Sajam, Swagg, aldo_geo, bbnogames, Cinna, deusamir, ExtraEmily, fanfan, farrahrized, and so many more.

What kind of panels are at TwitchCon 2025?

Programs are broken down into 15 different sections: Glitch Stage, Twitch Rivals, Community MeetUp, Creator Camp, Community Session, Brand Session, Interactive Workshop, Music Session, Block Party, Expo Hall, GDQx, LAN, Meet & Greet, Tabletop, and Twitch Treats.

The panels cover everything from how to best moderate a chat to how to tell a story with your stream, securing partnerships and making money, playing games, networking, and meet-and-greets. Of course, if that's not really your vibe, there will also surely be plenty of things to do on the expo floor.

As TwitchCon said, "From showdowns and live streams to meetups, panels, and unforgettable moments — TwitchCon’s got it all."

Can I watch any of the TwitchCon panels if I'm not there?

The panels aren't livestreamed, but you can follow TwitchCon's social media accounts on Instagram and X to keep up to date on everything happening during the convention. Plus, Mashable will be there.

What has made TwitchCon controversial in the past?

TwitchCon has been under fire for safety issues time and time again. In 2024, TwitchCon was rife with harassment after Kick streamers crashed the event. In 2022, Twitch streamer Adriana Chechik broke her back after jumping into a foam pit.

According to Tubefilter, Twitch CEO Dan Clancy said: "I want to be very clear; we take security at our events, like TwitchCon, extremely seriously. Every year, we build on successful approaches to TwitchCon safety and security, particularly as we become aware of new or emerging security or safety challenges."
