In Lego Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight, the hero will be suiting up in the shinobi threads that he donned for the 2018 anime movie Batman Ninja.

The game's hand-animated sprites moved with a fluidity that polygon games couldn't touch, and the humor, panicking soldiers, grateful POWs tossing rocket launchers, a tank that waddled like a toy, made the whole thing feel alive in a way that pure technical showmanship never quite manages.

Lego is building up an in-house programmatic media buying team and hiring programmatic experts in the United States and Denmark. It's among several advertisers currently deepening in-house media benches. The brickmaker advertised for five programmatic roles during January, including positions for a global programmatic media manager, programmatic media associates and media planning associates. The hires are a sign that the company is further developing the in-house media unit it first established in 2024.

The M2x2 is largely a 3D-printed case for a Mac Mini, one you can freely print at home yourself, but it's not just a shell. He's outfitted it with a 7-inch IPS touchscreen display, and a full array of additional ports and SD card reader thanks to an integrated USB-C hub.

As a parent myself, I know what I'm mostly looking for when buying another toy is that it'll ACTUALLY keep my kids engaged long enough to bring a sliver of peace to my home (a tough task, to say the least!). From Magna-Tiles and the new Toniebox 2 to colorful sensory tubes and a LeapFrog Touch and Learn eReader, my kids have tried out enough of these items to lead you in the right shopping direction!

Most lighting is still sold as fixed objects: a floor lamp for the living room, a task lamp for the desk, a strip for the TV, each designed for one spot and one job. That clashes with the way people actually live now, moving desks, rearranging rooms, switching from work to play in the same corner, while the lamps stay stubbornly tied to a single idea of the space.
