LinkedIn is shutting down its Audio Events feature | | During the COVID-19 pandemic, live audio became a viral trend, driven by Clubhouse, with other platforms quickly adopting the feature. However, as life returned to normal, live audio faded as a quirky relic of lockdown entertainment. Now, LinkedIn, which joined the trend in 2022, has announced it will end standalone live audio events by the end of the year. | | Starting December 2, users won't be able to create new audio events, and previously scheduled ones will be disabled after December 31. LinkedIn is merging audio events with LinkedIn Live, requiring third-party tools for setup. | | LinkedIn isn't alone in abandoning live audio. Reddit, Facebook, Spotify, and Amazon have also shut down their pandemic-era features, and even Clubhouse has pivoted. Meanwhile, X continues to support live audio despite technical issues. |

Chrysler confirms new electric Pacifica minivan | | Chrysler is developing an all-electric version of the Pacifica minivan, set to launch after a refreshed design inspired by Stellantis' Halcyon concept. The updated Pacifica will follow a gas-powered and plug-in hybrid version, the latter offering 32 miles of electric-only range. | | Chrysler CEO Christine Feuell confirmed the electric Pacifica at the LA Auto Show but did not clarify whether the plug-in hybrid will remain in the lineup. The electric model will require adjustments to the Pacifica's signature "Stow 'N Go" seating, which allows seats to fold flat for extra cargo space. | | To adapt, Chrysler is considering storing second-row seats under the front seats or installing rails to allow the second-row seats to slide sideways, ensuring the new BEV powertrain fits while maintaining versatility. |
