Auto workers worry it takes less labor to build electric cars. Maybe not, some researchers say
A traditional car engine is a complex wonder of engineering, with pistons moving up and down, springs compressing and decompressing, spinning shafts, opening and closing valves and spinning gears meshing together. That's not to mention a transmission, connecting the engine to the wheels, that's a complex machine all its own. An electric motor, on the other hand, is really just some magnets wrapped in wires and it only needs a single speed transmission. That simplicity worries the United Auto Workers union.

Scale of deadly Russian strike in Kharkiv village shown in drone footage
A Russian rocket blast reduced a village cafe and store in eastern Ukraine to rubble on Thursday 5 October, killing at least 51 civilians - including a six-year-old boy - in one of the deadliest attacks in the war in months. Drone footage shows the aftermath of the attack, where rescuers searched for survivors in the remains of the only cafe in the village of Hroza, located in the Kharkiv region. Around 60 people, including children, were attending a wake at the cafe when the missile hit, Ukrainian officials said. Volodymyr Zelensky described the strike as “a demonstrably brutal Russian crime” and the White House also condemned the “horrifying” attack.

'The Caine Mutiny Court-Martial' makes the case for William Friedkin's final film
Mounted as the filmed version of a stage play, "The Caine Mutiny Court-Martial" has more in common with "A Few Good Men" than the 1954 movie starring Humphrey Bogart, and might be as notable for its credit list as this sturdy but unspectacular production -- marking, as it does, the final film from director William Friedkin as well as co-star Lance Reddick, both of whom died earlier this year.

Like 'Squid Game,' 'Bargain' trades on the life-is-cheap edge of South Korean drama
The unexpected success of "Squid Game" gave a green light to bringing more South Korean dramas to the US, with Paramount establishing a partnership with Seoul-based CJ ENM to do so. The latest fruit of that relationship, "Bargain," isn't as compulsively watchable as "Squid Game" but echoes it in one key respect, darkly reflecting a society where life is cheap, and the class divide can be fatal.
