Amazon renews Fallout months before season 2's premiere
If you'll recall, the live adaptation was so well-received, Fallout 4 enjoyed a resurgence in sales nearly a decade after its release. Amazon also renewed the series for a second season just a few days after the first season debuted on its streaming service. Based on the video game franchise of the same name, Fallout is set 200 years into the future after an apocalyptic event. In the story, the humans who survived the apocalypse hid in luxury fallout shelters where their descendants remained for hundreds of years. The show follows Lucy as she leaves her shelter after an attack by outsiders to find her father who'd been kidnapped. Along the way, she meets more characters, including a squire from the Brotherhood of Steel and a ghoul bounty hunter.
Amazon has yet to reveal season 3's story, which doesn't come as a surprise, seeing as the second season has yet to drop. But season 2 will pick up from where the first one had left off and will take viewers from the Mojave wastelands to New Vegas.

Jeremy Clarkson admits he is on 'very steep learning curve' after TB outbreak
Jeremy Clarkson has admitted he is on a 'very steep learning curve' after bovine TB broke out on his farm. The Top Gear and Grand Tour star originally purchased the Chadlington-based farm back in 2008. It has since been the focus of four series of the Prime Video hit show Clarkson's Farm, but the 65-year-old had bad news to share with his fans on Thursday afternoon (July 31). READ MORE: Traffic chaos near wildlife park and Clarkson's pub as motorists urged to plan ahead On Thursday, he wrote on X, formerly Twitter, that a pregnant cow had contracted the disease on his farm near Chipping Norton, Oxfordshire. Mr Clarkson later said in an interview with Times Radio that Diddly Squat Farm "will be closed for two months" as a result of the outbreak. The shop remains open. The TV star has faced a tough week, because not only is he also dealing with 'a very sickly calf', but he also discovered that one of his puppies had died on Friday morning. Mr Clarkson told The Times that the unexpected TB diagnosis, the first for him, had thrown operations at Diddly Squat Farm in Oxfordshire into disarray and admitted that he was on a 'very steep learning curve'. 'The disruption's enormous, because you aren't allowed to operate as a business,' Mr Clarkson told The Times, describing the experience as 'bloody awful'. 'You have to isolate them for two months. "So all the barns we needed to store the grain in, we now have to convert into a cow hospital. We've got another calf with pneumonia, so that needs to be housed. And we can't buy or sell a cow now because the farm officially, you know, has TB.' Mr Clarkson also said that he did not know how the disease had reached the farm. Bovine TB is usually spread is by cattle with unidentified infections being moved around the country. However, it can also be spread to cattle from badgers, which harbour the bacterium that causes it.

The Government said in June it will not be extending the badger cull and retains its commitment to end the practice before the next election. Oxfordshire is an 'edge area' for bovine TB, meaning it is a buffer zone between high risk and low risk areas – so most herds are subject to six monthly TB tests by default. There have been several cases in the area of Oxfordshire near to Diddly Squat Farm in recent weeks, according to ibTB, a mapping platform for the disease in England and Wales.

Bring Spider-Man All the Way Home With 20% Off This Iconic Lego Set
I'm not going to get into who the best Spider-Man is and why it is Andrew Garfield. But if there's one thing all Marvel fans can agree on it's that the Statue of Liberty showdown in No Way Home is the most iconic crossover in the MCU so far. And now, thanks to Lego, you can re-create the exact scene at home, at a discount. Amazon is currently offering the Lego Marvel Spider-Man Final Battle set for $88, which is 20% off its regular price. Considering how we don't see Marvel-themed Lego sets go on sale that often, this one's a rare find and might not be around for long. The set re-creating the final battle from No Way Home includes all three Spider-Men, nine total minifigs and nearly a thousand pieces. You'll have Tobey, Andrew, Tom, Doctor Strange, MJ (of course), Ned, Electro, Green Goblin and Doc Ock. There's another hidden surprise -- lifting off the roof reveals Sandman's giant hand. Hey, did you know? CNET Deals texts are free, easy and save you money. Of course, what's a Spidey without its webs? This set comes with soft web pieces to trap the bad guys, along with three clear supports that let you pose characters in the air. There's even a flip-open section at the back that reveals a portal. It's recommended for ages 10 and older but I won't judge if you're a full-grown adult trying to get your hands on it before the kids do -- because, same. Why this deal matters Lego sets offer a great way to relive your favorite movie moments, and this one hits especially hard for Marvel fans. It's more than a toy, and at 20% off, it's a great excuse to bring this nostalgia-evoking collectible home without paying full price.

Who, Exactly, Is the ‘Netflix of AI' For?
In the ongoing, fiercely competitive race to see who can come up with the most unwanted, unwelcome AI technology, we may have a new frontrunner. According to Variety, Inc. has made an undisclosed investment in Fable, a Bay Area start-up, and specifically in its newly launched Showrunner service, which Fable is touting as the 'Netflix of AI.' The company describes its software, which went public Wednesday and is currently available via its Discord, as '[an] AI platform that puts a studio at your fingertips, where anyone can create, watch, and personalize series and stories.' More specifically, it allows users to use keywords to create scenes or episodes of animated cartoon shows, either of the user's own creation or (more likely, and easily) from existing templates of television programs.
