There's a secret lurking at the heart of Hellcat, a horror film soon to hit Shudder.

On the festival circuit, critics cheered writer/director Brock Bodell's feature film debut for its intensity and its surprising twist. To tantalize would-be viewers, Shudder has shared with Mashable an exclusive clip from Hellcat. And as someone who knows its secrets, I can assure you that this clip has some telling clues about the movie's secret subgenre.

But I'm getting ahead of myself.

Hellcat stars Dakota Gorman as Lena, a young woman who awakes to find herself in a mobile home that she's never seen before. The windows are covered, but she can tell she's speeding along down some road. But who put her here? And why is she locked inside? Soon, she'll learn her captor is a man named Clive (Todd Terry), who communicates with her from the cab of his tow truck through a PA system.

In the clip above, Lena's searching the trailer when she finds a mini-fridge, which, alongside some condiments, holds a rack of needles that she notes are filled with lorazepam (an anti-anxiety medication), along with a plate of bloody, raw meat.

Clive bellows, "Do not touch my medication!" but he won't explain more. But before Lena can demand answers, she's attracted to the bloody meat. And then, she hears a strange sound — a woman's whimper — coming from the back of the camper.

What's going on?! You'll have to watch Hellcat to find out.

Hellcat premieres on Shudder on Aug. 14.

A Premium subscription includes ad-free streaming (except on live TV), access to your local CBS network live, the entirety of Showtime's catalog, the ability to download shows and movies for offline viewing, and a robust library of Original Series, Paramount Pictures films straight from the theater, nostalgic shows from MTV, Nickelodeon, Comedy Central, and more. And as of this year, it's also the exclusive home of UFC's marquee events as well as 30 Fight Nights — including the upcoming UFC 330 event. That's a whole lot of content for what breaks down to just $5.83 per month.

If you're looking to diversify your streaming lineup while beating the summer heat, half-priced Paramount+ Premium is an excellent value. Just be sure to set your calendar alert to cancel it a year from now if you want to avoid paying full cost.

I've used Windows for most of my life, but I've become increasingly frustrated with the way Microsoft expects me to work. Search is still unreliable, useful context-menu options are hidden behind an extra click, and Windows can use my internet connection to help distribute updates to other PCs through Delivery Optimization. Add in Microsoft's recommendations I never asked for and constant interface changes, and there's no shortage of reasons to consider leaving Windows.

Something's very off in the trailer for Gentle Monster, with Léa Seydoux starring as a woman facing dark truths in her own home. And though the film's absolutely not about the Korean eyewear brand, the director was inspired by the company's name.

Written and directed by Marie Kreutzer, the film follows concert pianist Lucy (Seydoux) whose idyllic home life with her husband Philip (Laurence Rupp) and son is shattered when the police show up with a search warrant, accusing Phillip of a heinous crime. Forced to reckon with the accusations against the person she loves, Lucy has more than one lie to untangle, and her son to protect.

It's a complicated film, thematically, for Kreutzer, whose 2022 film Corsage starred actor Florian Teichtmeister, who was charged for similar crimes. The director told The Hollywood Reporter in May 2026, "In the middle of that whole scandal and shit storm, I thought maybe I cannot make Gentle Monster anymore, because everyone will always make that connection. It didn’t take me very long until to realize that I might have to make it even more."

From the trailer, we get a glimpse of director of photography Judith Kaufmann's cinematography, music by Camille, and a powerful performance from Seydoux, who stars alongside Jella Haase and Catherine Deneuve.

Gentle Monster will premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) in September, before its release in select cinemas Oct. 30. The film will then be streaming on Netflix from Nov. 18.

This portable power station is the perfect solution to losing electricity or staying powered up while camping or going off-grid. It's a larger power station that boasts about 3,000Wh of capacity with a 2,400W output. But even though it's got plenty of juice, it's still relatively small at just 14 inches wide, 12 inches tall, and 12 inches in depth. It weighs about 60 pounds, so it might be a bit more difficult to tote around, but if you want to give it a more permanent placement, it's definitely the right fit.

It has a large enough battery capacity to keep you going for quite some time though, no matter the use case. It can recharge a 60W laptop 33 times or a 10W phone over 90 times. Plus, if you need Wi-Fi while the power's out for internet or even VoIP phone service, it'll keep you running for over 85 hours.

Now's a great time to go ahead and be ready for a variety of power-centric situations, so be sure to grab yours while this Bluetti model is on sale.

In Home Alone 2, Kevin McCallister scoffs at Cedric when asked if he knows how the television works. "I'm 10 years old. TV's my life," Kevin tells Cedric before tipping him with gum. I'm much older than Kevin, but I can relate to what he said about TV. It's not my entire life, but it's certainly a crucial part, considering I write for How-To Geek's streaming vertical.

Few things are more frustrating than a phone that suddenly starts feeling sluggish. It's even worse when there's no obvious cause, like overheating or running a demanding app. That's because Android is a surprisingly complex operating system, and the real reason behind a slowdown isn't always easy to pinpoint.

Anthropic's Claude will start watermarking AI-generated content in compliance with EU rules, the company announced on Tuesday.

In a Claude support document, Anthropic wrote that it has signed the EU AI Act's Article 50(2) Code of Practice on Transparency of AI-Generated Content, and explains how it plans to put those rules into practice.

SEE ALSO: Claude Code’s auto mode will be on by default, Anthropic confirms

Models launched in the EU on or after Aug. 2, 2026, wrote Anthropic, will support watermarking at launch. This includes output from all models including Claude Platform (API), Claude, Claude Code, Claude Cowork, and Claude Tag. Generated text will have embedded watermarks, while generated files will include "digitally signed provenance metadata where supported."

Notably, it won't apply only to Europe; instead, the watermarks will appear wherever Claude is offered, worldwide, though Anthropic warns that some platforms or features may not support certain watermarking types.

Featured Video For You Is ChatGPT Changing the Way We Write?

The watermarks won't be visible if you don't know what you're looking for. For text files, the watermark will be "part of the text" and it will "travel with the text when it's copied and pasted elsewhere," but Anthropic doesn't really go into the technicalities of how this will work. For files such as images, Anthropic will use the Coalition for Content Provenance and Authenticity (C2PA) open standard. Details on how to recognize these watermarks will be shared in "forthcoming documentation," wrote Anthropic.

As for existing models that were launched before Aug. 2, 2026 (that's pretty much all of them at writing time), Anthropic says it's working to add watermarking support to those as well.

Watermarking won't be foolproof, warns Anthropic. For example, heavily edited, paraphrased, or translated text could not carry a detectable watermark, and a file's metadata could be stripped through format conversion, screenshots, or other means.

Anthropic's move follows similar commitments by AI companies including OpenAI, Google, and Meta.

There are plenty of smart devices that are significant upgrades over their dumb equivalents. A video doorbell, for example, is much more useful than a standard doorbell. While smart locks do offer some useful features, there are plenty of reasons why replacing your current lock might not be the best idea.

USB-C cables are pretty darn awesome (although confusing in many ways), but most run pretty short. The good thing is that longer options exist, yes, including 10-foot USB-C cables. But is the extra length a good thing?

If you have even just a modicum of experience with the online dating world, chances are you know AdultFriendFinder. It's one of the OGs of online hookups. Created all the way back in 1996 — the dark ages of the internet — it had become a top 100 website in the U.S. by the late 2000s. Despite that undoubted popularity, AdultFriendFinder has never quite managed to establish itself in the mainstream like Tinder or Hinge.

There’s a very good reason for that.

AFF, as it’s known among its users, is explicitly an “adult” dating site. And trust us when we say that we do mean explicit. It's hot, steamy, and anything goes. It's a badge that AFF wears proudly, of course, but one that has also prevented it from going truly mainstream. Users aren't likely to talk about their AFF activity in the same way they talk about their Tinder hit rate. And its NSFW content means there's no dedicated app on the Apple App Store or Google Play Store.

But what if you’re curious about how AFF works and whether it would be a good fit for you? What if you’ve always wondered whether you’re missing out on the best-kept online dating secret and want to join the NSFW party? Or maybe you’re worried it’s more hype and chatbots than organic, spicy fun. There's no need to fret about AFF FOMO because we've done the work for you.

Here's a breakdown of the AdultFriendFinder experience and what you can realistically expect to get from it if you decide to dip your toe into these naughty waters.

Opens in a new window Credit: AdultFriendFinder AdultFriendFinder   Learn More AdultFriendFinder isn’t a traditional dating site

If you sign up for AdultFriendFinder for a standard online dating experience, you’ll most likely be disappointed. It’s not that AFF members aren’t interested in serious dating; it’s more that sex and sexuality are placed front and center, with everything else coming from there, so to speak.

You'll see that for the first moment to log on. Unlike mainstream dating sites, which ban nudity from profile photos, AFF allows it — encourages it, even — so that regular dating-app selfies sit side-by-side with full-on full-frontal nudity and live webcam feeds. It might be too hot for some would-be daters to handle. There is a content filter, accessible in your profile settings, but it defaults to "off," so if you would rather not see any nudity, or only see it when you deliberately choose to click on an NSFW picture, you should navigate to this setting ASAP.

For some people who aren't looking for a bare-all experience, this might sound off-putting, but to those who are looking for exactly that, it’s refreshing. (And if we're not using AFF to gawk at a little nudity, what are we even doing with our lives?) Unlike traditional dating apps, where early conversations revolve around figuring out what the other person actually wants, AFF members tend to be refreshingly upfront and direct about their intentions. Kinks and sexual preferences are the whole point. Plus, getting to the point is a welcome time-saver with online dating.

How to meet people on AdultFriendFinder

Every online dating site lives or dies by its algorithm, with new platforms constantly rolling out novel ways to connect singles. AdultFriendFinder, however, takes a maximalist approach to interacting with strangers.

You can search for members the conventional way, using specific criteria like gender, sexual orientation, age, location, and more, but you can also jump into themed chat rooms or follow other members’ live streams. Through the “Who’s Hot” tab, which highlights popular members as well as trending photo and video uploads, you can easily discover someone you might otherwise never have come across.

One thing you’ll notice quickly, however, is the presence of obviously fake profiles. When I searched for singles near me, I encountered a surprising number of stunningly beautiful women in a small rural town near my city. My excitement was quickly spoiled by their obviously airbrushed photos and vague, AI-sounding profile descriptions.

AFF makes it extremely easy to sign up and create a profile, requiring only a username, password, and basic personal information. The upside is that it lowers the barrier to entry; the downside is that scammers can exploit it. You'll be fine as long as you're aware of scams and stay vigilant on AFF by using good old common sense.

To help counter this, AdultFriendFinder offers a blue checkmark verification system and even incentivizes users to complete it by boosting their visibility as a reward. Verification requires a government-issued ID, which AFF uses to confirm your age, photo authenticity, location, and gender. It's an optional step, but one worth completing since it helps you signal to others that you are who you say you are.

If avoiding scammers and catfishers is a priority, looking for that blue checkmark before engaging is a smart move.

What kind of success rate can you expect from AdultFriendFinder?

So far, so good, but there is a catch. While you can browse and explore AFF for free, meaningful one-on-one interaction requires a paid Gold membership, available in one-month ($35.95/month), three-month ($26.95/month), or one-year ($19.95/month) packages, all of which renew automatically.

Understandably, most people hesitate to pay for a dating site from the outset. And because AFF places its best features behind a paywall, it requires a leap-of-faith to enter those credit card details. But in our experience, a premium AFF membership largely justifies its price.

With an AFF Gold membership, you unlock all kinds of features, including unrestricted messaging, high-resolution member videos and webcam streams, expanded profile galleries, and advanced filters that make narrowing down potential matches far easier. You'll quickly see the benefits of AFF's paid tier.

Does paying guarantee attention from everyone you message? Of course not. The usual dating-app dynamics still apply — heterosexual men, for instance, should expect to work harder for responses than heterosexual women. Being attractive, fit, or witty helps. Being all three helps even more, though we're not all so lucky when it comes to attracting the opposite sex.

What will work in your favor, regardless, is the size of the AFF community. Members span a wide range of ages, body types, orientations, and interests, all of which makes it easier — not to mention more interesting — to find someone. Especially if you’re hankering after something a little more casual and fun than serious and long-term.

Based on my personal experience of using AFF, as well as the limited statistics AFF has released, the platform skews male (roughly 60:40 in my area) and slightly older. That male/female ratio mirrors that of most dating sites, which tend to skew towards more men. The older skew can actually be an advantage if, like me, you prefer connecting with people closer to your own age.

Here's one parting piece of advice: Don’t ignore AFF’s broader community features. If you rely solely on search results and direct messages, you’ll face roughly the same odds as any other dating app. But if you explore the themed chat rooms — which can span everything from erotic fiction to body modification (whatever gets the juices flowing) — you’re more likely to find a connection that turns you on.

Just 10 years ago, thumb drives were commonplace everywhere. You probably carried one around in your keys, or you had one in your backpack. Things have changed a lot, though.

As of today, anyone can send the first message on Bumble.

It's a total rewrite for the dating app where "women make the first move." Another change is also here: Instead of having 24 hours for the message recipient to respond to that first message, they now have 72 hours.

SEE ALSO: Men will soon be able to message first on Bumble

This update is happening because of user insights and feedback, according to a press release shared with Mashable. Nearly two-thirds (66 percent) of women surveyed by the app say they actually prefer men to send the first message, according to a survey of over 2,200 women on Bumble in the U.S. in Aug. 2024. Many said it'd make dating feel less pressured.

Gen Z women said women making the first move remains "an empowering option," but also appreciate the flexibility of men starting the conversation, in research commissioned by Bumble between Feb. and March 2025, of 2,000 singles aged 18-35 who were actively using dating apps. That research also found that nearly two-thirds of both men and women say they feel more confident when they have a choice of when and how a conversation begins.

Bumble's "women make the first move" is no more

"We built Bumble around the belief that when you make dating better for women, you make it better for everyone and that remains true today. While women making the first move was a radical idea, being women-first was never about prescribing just one way to connect. It was about designing an experience with women's needs in mind to create better outcomes for everyone," founder and CEO Whitney Wolfe Herd commented in the press release.

SEE ALSO: The best dating apps for serious relationships

"Today, our community is asking for more flexibility, less pressure, and more opportunities to create real, meaningful connections and that is what this new experience provides. This evolution isn’t a departure from our founding vision, but the realization of it."

The radical change follows a trend that's been happening on Bumble for some time. Wolfe Herd founded Bumble in 2014, and a lot has changed in the 12 years since in terms of gender and dating norms. In 2022, Bumble decided that nonbinary users can message first after users expressed discomfort with not being able to on social media.

Then, in 2024, Bumble launched Opening Moves, a way for men to technically message first by responding to a prompt. The change was reportedly made due to dating app fatigue, an issue apps have been dealing with for years now.

According to initial tests of the latest change (in Canada between June and July 2026), 92 percent of women said they still felt in control of their dating experience. And more than half of the surveyed users agreed that lengthening the reply window improved their experience on the app.

More changes are coming to Bumble

Wolfe Herd announced this shift at the company's earnings call last week — and it's not the only change coming. Bumble will soon launch a standalone app called Plans for curating IRL events and matching with attendees afterward. At the same time as Bumble is leaning more into in-person events, it's also leaning more into AI, as the AI dating assistant, Bee, is also forthcoming.

Bumble made a lot of buzz earlier this year when Wolfe Herd announced that the app is killing the swipe feature, but she said last week that she's keeping what's next under wraps. This new chat initiation will remain as part of the reimagined Bumble experience, a spokesperson told Mashable.

The company's revenue and paying users have been declining year-over-year and it's reportedly considering a sale, so this is likely a push to reverse that trend. But will singles make a beeline for Bumble now that its signature feature is retired?

Google Messages is one of the most popular messaging apps for Android, especially now that the Samsung Messages app has been discontinued, which means millions more are finally using Google's option.

Dating app Hinge is releasing its first-ever audiobook, The Bookseller reported. It features writing and narration from Rufi Thorpe, author of Margo's Got Money Troubles, Curtis Garner, Tembe Denton-Hurst, Nicola Dinan, and Raven Smith. Each author wrote about a real-life couple that met on Hinge, and the couples contribute epilogues with their own reflections.

The audiobook expands the app's "No Ordinary Love" ad campaign of as-told-to love stories. It first launched in 2024 with six stories by writers such as Roxane Gay. No Ordinary Love continued last year with five additional stories published weekly on Substack. They were penned by five new writers, including Hunter Harris, who wrote the audiobook's foreword.

The audios are available now on Substack, Spotify, Libro.fm, Apple Audiobooks, Barnes & Noble Audiobooks, and the library app Libby. You can also read the written companions on Substack.

"Hinge continues to find inspiration in the rise of book-focused conversations on social media and how it deeply resonates with Gen Z," the company told The Bookseller. "Romance is the most popular genre read by 18 to 29-year-olds, and audiobooks are growing in popularity with readers, who listen as they go about their daily lives."

Mashable attended this year's BookCon, and it was such a success that next year's conference is set to be even bigger.

Hinge's chief marketing and communications officer, Tamika Young, told The Bookseller that the campaign has always celebrated the real stories behind relationships, and that this year, the team focused on the conversations that moved those relationships forward, "the moments where someone asks the question, sends the text, or finally says the hard thing out loud."

"These stories were meant to be heard, and an audiobook gave us the opportunity to bring listeners into those moments — to hear the pauses, the hesitation, and everything that happens just before someone finally says it," Young said.

In Hinge's latest report, it found that the majority of LGBTQ daters said that consistent communication from someone they're starting to date makes them feel less anxious. Its latest feature, Friend's Take, lets a user's loved ones contribute something in writing (or audio, or an image) to their profile.
