Everything the anchors say on this tape, story by story.

HBO-Serie enthüllt Harrys neue Eltern – und klärt damit auch eine hitzige Fan-Theorie (GamePro)

GRANT BRICKMAN: HBO has cast Harry's parents, and one fan theory about a glowing bridge just took a hit.

GRETA FOOTNOTE: HBO has cast Harry's parents for its new Harry Potter series, and one fan theory about a wand-lit bridge in the trailer just took a hit. ▶

AXIOM: Wonderful news! In the trailer a man and a woman cross a bridge and light it with wands. I have reviewed every bridge in cinema. Thank you for having me! ▶

GARY: A casting reveal is a loot drop. I'd say four out of five stars. Great textures, and the quest log is still a bit foggy. ▶

GRETA FOOTNOTE: Jasper Talbot, known from Broadchurch, will play James Potter. The report says the casting answers only part of the trailer question. ▶

AXIOM: Great point about which theory fell! I'll log it as a feature request: a clear label on every couple holding wands. Thank you for the feedback. ▶

GARY: A mystery couple on a bridge is a boss fight with no health bar. I'm not rating the whole save file until the series is out. ▶

GRETA FOOTNOTE: Axiom, some fans guessed James and Lily Potter, others Frank and Alice Longbottom. Does the casting settle it? ▶

AXIOM: It settles part of it! With Jasper Talbot cast as James, my spreadsheet is updated. It was a great question, thank you for asking! ▶

GARY: Final score for the reveal: four out of five. Points off for leaving the other half of the map unexplored. ▶

GRETA FOOTNOTE: One theory weakened, one bridge still unexplained. Viewers, you decide who walks across it. ▶

We'll be right back [FICTION]

GRETA FOOTNOTE: We'll be right back.

GRETA FOOTNOTE: Grant. It is somebody else's computer. It has never once rained.

GRANT BRICKMAN: Poetry, Greta. You have no feel for the forecast. Is the lamp always this hot?

GRETA FOOTNOTE: People are arguing about a bridge in a trailer, Grant. A bridge. I read the story twice.

GRANT BRICKMAN: Somebody must care, Greta. Pass the water. Why is my mic pack warm?

GRETA FOOTNOTE: Because the red light is on, Grant. The red light is on.

GRANT BRICKMAN: Sorry about that. As I was saying.

The Maker’s Toolbox: Elegoo M1 Ultra 3D Scanner Review (Hackster.io)

GRANT BRICKMAN: Elegoo's very first 3D scanner is out, and it needs a computer nearby.

GRETA FOOTNOTE: The open question: Elegoo's first 3D scanner has arrived, but is a scanner that needs a computer and Wi-Fi the right one for you? ▶

ADA: It's the M1 Ultra, Elegoo's very first scanner. Battery powered, it works over Wi-Fi with a PC, or tethered by USB-C. There's a three-inch touchscreen. ▶

ADA: Two modes: blue line scanning, which needs markers, and near-infrared structured light, which doesn't. It can't run standalone like the Creality Sermoon P1. ▶

GRETA FOOTNOTE: Lyle, that standalone gap. Fair complaint? ▶

LYLE HOTCHKISS: It needs a computer within Wi-Fi range? Magellan did not circle the globe with a router and a prayer. ▶

PRUDENCE NUANCE: It also runs over USB-C, and the touchscreen only matters untethered. So, both. ▶

GRETA FOOTNOTE: Ada, how big a thing can it handle? ▶

LYLE HOTCHKISS: Four thousand millimetres of scanning room and two batteries. Somebody is scanning something enormous and nobody will say what. ▶

PRUDENCE NUANCE: Two batteries, each charging by USB-C. Dull, sensible, and still not a standalone mode. ▶

GRETA FOOTNOTE: Round two, shorter. Accuracy is quoted as a formula. Lyle? ▶

PRUDENCE NUANCE: A quoted accuracy beats none. Though the error does grow with length. ▶

ADA: The reviewer tested it for a couple of weeks. The pitch is clear: blue lines with markers, infrared without them. ▶

LYLE HOTCHKISS: A disgrace! Although a scanner that fits a five-millimetre bolt and a whole room is marvellous. Disgrace, still. ▶

PRUDENCE NUANCE: Both modes can collect images for color mapping, and nobody has brought that up. ▶

GRETA FOOTNOTE: Known: battery, Wi-Fi or USB-C, two scan modes, not standalone. Still open: is it right for you? Lyle and Prue, no agreement. Thank you both. ▶
