It might look like it, but the moon isn't quite full yet. But we're almost there. There's still lots to see on tonight's moon though, so keep reading.

What is today’s moon phase?

As of Monday, Nov. 4, the moon phase is Waxing Gibbous. There will be 98% of the moon lit up tonight, according to NASA's Daily Moon Observation.

The moon is so close to full, and there's so much to see. For those looking up without any visual aids, you'll see the Tycho and Copernicus Craters and the Mare Crisium. With binoculars, you have a particularly high chance of seeing the Gassendi and Archimedes Craters and the Mare Frigoris. If you have a telescope, you'll also see the Linne Crater, the Apollo 11 landing spot, as well as the Fra Mauro Highlands.

When is the next full moon?

The next full moon will be on Nov. 5.

What are moon phases?

NASA explains that the moon goes through different phases as it travels around Earth over roughly 29.5 days. The phases result from the shifting angles between the Sun, Moon, and Earth. From our viewpoint, the moon can look fully lit, partially lit, or even vanish from sight, though we always see the same side. What changes is the amount of sunlight bouncing off its surface depending on its position in orbit; a repeating pattern called the lunar cycle.

The eight main moon phases are:

New Moon - The moon is between Earth and the sun, so the side we see is dark (in other words, it's invisible to the eye).

Waxing Crescent - A small sliver of light appears on the right side (Northern Hemisphere).

First Quarter - Half of the moon is lit on the right side. It looks like a half-moon.

Waxing Gibbous - More than half is lit up, but it’s not quite full yet.

Full Moon - The whole face of the moon is illuminated and fully visible.

Waning Gibbous - The moon starts losing light on the right side. (Northern Hemisphere)

Third Quarter (or Last Quarter) - Another half-moon, but now the left side is lit.

Waning Crescent - A thin sliver of light remains on the left side before going dark again.

Elon Musk may not be a New York City resident, but he has strong feelings about the city's mayoral race, and he's using his social media platform X to influence voters.

Up to 2 million New York City residents are expected to vote in the mayoral election, which takes place on Tuesday, Nov. 4. The city's mayoral race has garnered a lot of national attention because of the charismatic State Assemblyman Zohran Mamdani, a 34-year-old Democratic Socialist, who defeated former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo in the Democratic primary over the summer. Cuomo is now running as an independent against Mamdani in the general election, with Mamdani as the official Democratic nominee.

Tech companies like DoorDash and Airbnb have already weighed in on the race, donating millions of dollars to defeat Mamdani.

And on Monday, the day before the election, the world's richest man made it clear who he's backing: Cuomo. In addition, Musk is urging conservative voters not to split the vote by backing the Republican candidate, Curtis Sliwa, who has a much more difficult path to victory. 

In essence, Musk is backing Cuomo simply to defeat Mamdani, and he's using a paid promotion feature to push his endorsement into users' feeds.

This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.

"Remember to vote tomorrow in New York!" Musk posted on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter, which he acquired in 2022. "Bear in mind that a vote for Curtis is really a vote for Mumdumi or whatever his name is. VOTE CUOMO!"

For this post, Musk utilized a paid feature on X that allows Premium X users to "Boost" their posts for added reach. This is different from the X algorithm organically showing a user posts based on their interests and engagement. Boosted posts can also be used for advertisements, but according to X's guidelines, "If you decide to use Boosted to advertise, those boosted posts must also self-identify as an advertisement" and comply with all X ad policies.

X itself does not label a boosted post that shows up in a user's feed as a paid promotion. 

How do we know Musk is boosting his post?

Normally, paid political advertisements face increased scrutiny and disclosure requirements online. (Thank you, Cambridge Analytica and Mark Zuckerberg.)

However, while Musk is taking advantage of a paid feature, it's unclear if he is actually paying to boost his post on X. After all, he owns the platform. Even so, Musk appears to be using the paid boost feature to promote his Cuomo endorsement and attack on Mamdani.

How do we know? Mashable has previously reported on Musk's X and its lack of disclosure for some advertisements. In addition, boosted posts often have a noticeable tell: X strips those posts of a timestamp when showing the post in a user's feed.

Musk's boosted post appears on users' timelines without a timestamp, a typical sign of a boosted post. Credit: Screenshot from X

When Musk's post shows up in a user's feed, users can click on the ellipses button on the right-hand corner of the post, where they will see a list of options. One of those options is a page labeled "Why am I seeing this?"

After clicking that option, X finally discloses that the reason you're seeing that post is because "Elon Musk boosted their post."

After clicking through layers of options, X will finally disclose that Musk is boosting the post. Credit: Mashable screenshot

Musk's endorsement in the election shouldn't be a surprise.

The CEO of Tesla and SpaceX has embraced right-wing politics and openly campaigned for Donald Trump during the presidential election in 2024. Musk also worked with the Trump administration through DOGE.

Now, Musk appears to be trying to influence the New York City mayoral race by utilizing a paid promotion feature that pushes his endorsement on users without an obvious disclosure.

As of this writing, Mamdani maintains a strong lead in the polls.

One of several high-profile Stephen King adaptations hitting screens this year has officially made its way to households. Fans have been waiting for this one for a long time. The Long Walk is King's first novella (though not the first book he had published) he wrote back in high school. Nearly 60 years later, it got its first big-screen adaptation. And this fall, it's hitting small screens as well.

Directed by Francis Lawrence, who also fittingly helmed four out of five Hunger Games films, The Long Walk is a nightmarish dystopian movie not for the faint of heart. If you missed it in theaters, here's everything you need to know to watch it at home.

What is The Long Walk about?

The Long Walk is set in a dystopian America where each year, 100 young men participate in a brutal walk across the country. The grueling walk has just one objective: keep walking at a speed of at least 3 mph until there's one person left standing. If the men fall behind, veer off the road, or stop for any reason, they'll get shot by the soldiers driving alongside them. The winner gets an untold amount of riches and a wish fulfilled by the government. But at what cost?

The trailer alone will make your feet hurt:

Is The Long Walk worth watching?

To sum up The Long Walk in one word, Mashable's Belen Edwards calls it "bleak." She writes in her review, "After almost two hours of being immersed in this string of deaths, you may find yourself begging, 'Enough already!' The Long Walk, however, does not let up, trapping you in a never-ending nightmare of bloodied feet and fraying minds."

If you're looking for a happy watch, keep looking. This is not it. However, the relentless saga did earn a satisfactory 88 percent critic rating on Rotten Tomatoes, with an equally good audience rating of 85 percent. Apparently, people like bleak.

A well-known leaker in China took to the social media platform Weibo last week to reveal the potential color options of next year's iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max smartphones. Apple released the current version of its flagship smartphone, the iPhone 17 Pro, at a launch event in September, and per Tim Cook, the company has seen strong sales so far.

That's despite a few controversial design choices, which very much include the color options. Notably, Apple did not offer a standard black option, instead opting for silver, navy blue, and the more controversial cosmic orange.

If the leaker is correct, next year's iPhone 18 Pro models will also come in three color options: "Coffee, purple, wine red."

The leaker, who posts under the name Digital Chat Station on Weibo, wrote the post in Chinese, so we're relying on the translated version of the post. Alternative translations also include "coffee brown" and "burgundy," according to 9to5Mac. (In fact, even the leaker's username doesn't have a direct translation; we've also seen their name translated as "Instant Digital" and "Momentary Digital.")

The lack of a standard black iPhone 18 Pro will be disappointing to some Apple customers, as that was a recurring complaint with this year's model.

SEE ALSO: Marques Brownlee shows how good a black iPhone 17 Pro would have looked

Because Apple switched to anodized aluminum for the iPhone 17 Pro (instead of a more durable material like titanium), the new flagship phones were surprisingly prone to scratches (a phenomenon known as "scratchgate"). Tech reporters have theorized that black anodized aluminum would have shown scratches even more clearly, hence the unexpected omission of that color.

Black hasn't always been a standard iPhone Pro color. However, according to BGR, Apple offered a black or dark gray Pro model from 2020 to 2024, and some users grew accustomed to that colorway.

Of course, as with any leak, especially an early leak like this, you should consider the color options a rumor. Even if it's true, a lot could change between now and next year's expected iPhone launch.

Today, Google released the 2025 edition of the Holiday 100, its annual gift guide based on the year’s biggest Google Search trends. The list includes new tech releases like the Nintendo Switch 2, the Ninja Creami Swirl, and the Google Pixel Watch 4 as well as apparel, home, beauty, and toy picks. Obviously, Labubus are on there.

Google chooses items for its Holiday 100 list by analyzing U.S. Google Trends data from May through September. The tech giant says that more than 1 billion shopping-related searches are conducted every day on Google, providing it with a vast data pool to draw from.

Like two toddlers who were somehow given the gift of internet access and infinite money, Tesla CEO Elon Musk and OpenAI CEO Sam Altman are arguing online again.

The latest instance in this never-ending beef was started by Altman on Oct. 30, who shared his unsuccessful attempt to cancel the Tesla Roadster. In an X post with email screenshots, Altman said he had pre-ordered the Roadster in July 2018 with a $45,000 reservation payment. Seven years later, in 2025, he tried to cancel the reservation and get a refund by directly responding to the original reservation confirmation email, which yielded an "address not found" error.

This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.

On one hand, it's not that unusual for a company email address to get changed or expire after seven years. On the other, it's very unusual for a company to ask for a $45k down payment on a car and then not launch it for seven years, so we do kinda get where Altman's coming from.

SEE ALSO: Musk hopes Tesla Roadster demo will be ready before end of 2025

Musk responded on X on Nov. 1, first by changing the subject and saying that Altman "stole a non-profit," referencing the odd trajectory of OpenAI from a non-profit to for-profit company. (Musk was involved in OpenAI early, but later sued when the company transitioned to for-profit.) The Tesla CEO then said that Altman's "issue was fixed" and that the OpenAI CEO had received a refund "within 24 hours."

This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.

Altman may have chosen the wrong moment to cancel his Roadster reservation, as Musk recently said that Tesla is close to demonstrating a "prototype" of the vehicle, hyping it up as "if you took all the James Bond cars and combined them, it's crazier than that" — and hinting that it'll be able to fly. Then again, this car was originally supposed to launch in 2020, so we wouldn't hold our breath waiting it to launch.

AT MARKET VALUE: As of Nov. 3, the Pokémon TCG White Flare Elite Trainer Box is $82.94 at Amazon. This is now at market value vs. TCGPlayer.

Have you been hunting down Mega Evolution boosters and Phantasmal Flames preorders? I don't blame you, but my eye has been on the Scarlet and Violet era, specifically White Flare. Amazon are finally playing ball with their pricing, bringing the White Flare Elite Trainer Box down from a ridiculous $104.49 to market value at $82.94. Well, technically its a couple of dollars more, but you'll get prime delivery and have this ETB in your hands tomorrow. It's a solid pay off especially when you're paying extra for delivery at TCGplayer.

Black Bolt and White Flare is a crazy double set featuring an Illustration Rare or Secret Art Rare for every Unovan Pokémon. Oh, and don't forget about the new Black White Rares of Victini (two for both sets), Reshiram (White Flare), and Zekrom (Black Bolt). It really is such an epic way to cap off the Scarlet and Violet era.

The Black Bolt ETB includes a Tornadus 210 Illustration Rare promo card, 65 Black Bolt-Themed sleeves, themed dice, and eight booster packs. Even the box is great for storing all of your bulk cards thanks to the included dividers. That works out at $10.37 per booster pack plus all the extras as a bonus, not bad given current market conditions.

Mega Evolution has been dominating the Pokémon TCG landscape, with stock levels looking better than ever. Phantasmal Flames preorders haven't been looking bad either, but regular stock remains to be seen when it releases Nov. 14. I'm still focused on the Scarlet and Violet era, which is a good job as I've found a great deal on the BLack Bolt Elite Trainer Box.

Right now, Amazon is selling it for below market value for $84.95, which is around $3 lower than TCGplayer's current listings. It doesn't sound like much, but it's more money in your pocket and next-day delivery. Who can argue with what when other ETBs are soaring to over $100?

The Black Bolt ETB includes a Thundurus 209 Illustration Rare promo card, 65 Black Bolt-Themed sleeves, themed dice, and eight booster packs.

Looking to rip open packs and find chase cards? These are the kind of deals collectors and trainers need to keep an eye out for.

Like I said, the only problem with this set is it's size, making those top chase cards brutal to catch in sealed products.

Here's the top six right now and where you can buy them:

So, you're going through a breakup. You're in the thick of heartache and it can feel never-ending. But, rest assured: this too shall pass. But, how long will it take for your post-breakup blues to lose their grip on you? If you're looking for specifics, you've come to the right place.

A statement that's often bandied around is that it takes half the duration of the relationship to get over it. But, is that actually true? We've read the research to get the answers to the burning question: how long does it take to get over a breakup?

It could take three months to feel better

A 2023 study by researchers at the University of Washington examined the recovery period of individuals who experienced a single breakup. The study observed participants over a two-year period and found that people going through breakups experienced a temporary increase in depressive symptoms, which returned to pre-breakup levels after three months.

SEE ALSO: How to get over a breakup Self-esteem may take one year to recover

Breakups can do a number on our self-esteem. Processing feelings of rejection can make us question our self-worth, our value as a partner, even our appearance. But, it's important to challenge these thoughts — feelings aren't facts! It's normal for your self-esteem to take a hit in the midst of a breakup, but crucially, it should not be a permanent state. (If it does continue post-breakup, it could help to speak to a therapist.)

A 2017 University of Bern study, published in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, found that going through a breakup can decrease self-esteem, but after one year, self-esteem levels in participants levelled out.

Carrie Bradshaw, patron saint of heartbreak, once said, "If you love someone and you break up, where does the love go?" Good question, Carrie.

Right now, you're likely wrapping your head around the idea of no longer seeing this person everyday. It's like losing a dear friend. But, one day, you'll be able to look back at your ex simply as someone who was once a part of your life. (If you're keen on staying friends after you break up, it will take time and effort.)

A 2025 study from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign found that for the average person, it takes 4.18 years for attachment bonds to fade away. "People’s former partners simply become someone they used to know," authors Jia Y. Chong and R. Chris Fraley found.

A psychotherapist's perspective on breakup timelines

We know what the research tells us, but what do therapists think based on their experience of talking to patients?

Naomi Magnus, psychotherapist at North London Therapy, says there is no fixed timeline for getting over a breakup. "Your emotional recovery will depend on the length and depth of the relationship, how well you cope in stressful situations, and the support network around you," she tells Mashable.

Featured Video For You 'I was cloaked.' What it's like to be blocked and stood up by your Hinge date.

Magnus adds that many people report gradual improvement over weeks or months, but that processing grief fully could take six months or longer. "It's normal to experience waves of sadness, anger, or longing," she says. "To heal, you need to process these emotions, look after yourself well, socialise with people who love and support you, and reflect on the relationship. It's not easy, but always remember the heartache won't last forever."

Were you the dumper or the dumpee?

How quickly you bounce back from a breakup can also depend on whether you were the dumper or the dumpee, says therapist Jonathan Eddie, a member of British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.

Other factors that can impact recovery time, he tells Mashable, include: "Do you feel relatively secure aside from the relationship? Do you carry psychological wounds from your past that were triggered by the separation? How traumatic was the split? What history did you have together? How badly were your dreams dashed? Were dependants or property involved?"

SEE ALSO: What are the rules for blocking someone after a breakup? Can heartbreak last longer than one year?

Eddie says that the ending of a relationship can cause grief that's not unlike the death of a loved one. "Just like bereavement, there’s no set timeframe for processing," he says. "Hopefully, with the benefit of time and new experiences, the intensity will lesson and perhaps even vanish all together." 

“I guess if I was to rely on my experience to put a number on it, I’d say anything up to a year is a reasonable length of time to recover from a breakup," Eddie adds. "If it was to drag on too much beyond that, or if it was to impact on the ability to move forwards in life, then it could be a really healing experience to work alongside a trained therapist."

Originally created by engineer Josh Wardle as a gift for his partner, Wordle rapidly spread to become an international phenomenon, with thousands of people around the globe playing every day. Alternate Wordle versions created by fans also sprang up, including battle royale Squabble, music identification game Heardle, and variations like Dordle and Quordle that make you guess multiple words at once. 

Wordle eventually became so popular that it was purchased by the New York Times, and TikTok creators even livestream themselves playing.

What's the best Wordle starting word?

The best Wordle starting word is the one that speaks to you. But if you prefer to be strategic in your approach, we have a few ideas to help you pick a word that might help you find the solution faster. One tip is to select a word that includes at least two different vowels, plus some common consonants like S, T, R, or N.

What happened to the Wordle archive?

The entire archive of past Wordle puzzles was originally available for anyone to enjoy whenever they felt like it, but it was later taken down, with the website's creator stating it was done at the request of the New York Times. However, the New York Times then rolled out its own Wordle Archive, available only to NYT Games subscribers.

Is Wordle getting harder?

It might feel like Wordle is getting harder, but it actually isn't any more difficult than when it first began. You can turn on Wordle's Hard Mode if you're after more of a challenge, though.

Today's NYT Strands hints are easy if you love a good tale.

Strands, the New York Times' elevated word-search game, requires the player to perform a twist on the classic word search. Words can be made from linked letters — up, down, left, right, or diagonal, but words can also change direction, resulting in quirky shapes and patterns. Every single letter in the grid will be part of an answer. There's always a theme linking every solution, along with the "spangram," a special, word or phrase that sums up that day's theme, and spans the entire grid horizontally or vertically.

By providing an opaque hint and not providing the word list, Strands creates a brain-teasing game that takes a little longer to play than its other games, like Wordle and Connections.

The NYT's latest daily word game has become a social media hit. The Times credits associate puzzle editor Wyna Liu with helping to create the new word game and bringing it to the publications' Games section. Connections can be played on both web browsers and mobile devices and require players to group four words that share something in common.

This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.

Each puzzle features 16 words and each grouping of words is split into four categories. These sets could comprise of anything from book titles, software, country names, etc. Even though multiple words will seem like they fit together, there's only one correct answer.

If a player gets all four words in a set correct, those words are removed from the board. Guess wrong and it counts as a mistake—players get up to four mistakes until the game ends.

Players can also rearrange and shuffle the board to make spotting connections easier. Additionally, each group is color-coded with yellow being the easiest, followed by green, blue, and purple. Like Wordle, you can share the results with your friends on social media.

Welcome to your guide to Pips, the latest game in the New York Times catalogue.

Released in August 2025, the Pips puts a unique spin on dominoes, creating a fun single-player experience that could become your next daily gaming habit.

Currently, if you're stuck, the game only offers to reveal the entire puzzle, forcing you to move onto the next difficulty level and start over. However, we have you covered! Below are piecemeal answers that will serve as hints so that you can find your way through each difficulty level.

How to play Pips

If you've ever played dominoes, you'll have a passing familiarity for how Pips is played. As we've shared in our previous hints stories for Pips, the tiles, like dominoes, are placed vertically or horizontally and connect with each other. The main difference between a traditional game of dominoes and Pips is the color-coded conditions you have to address. The touching tiles don't necessarily have to match.

SEE ALSO: Wordle today: Answer, hints for November 3, 2025

The conditions you have to meet are specific to the color-coded spaces. For example, if it provides a single number, every side of a tile in that space must add up to the number provided. It is possible – and common – for only half a tile to be within a color-coded space.

Here are common examples you'll run into across the difficulty levels:

• Number: All the pips in this space must add up to the number.

• Equal: Every domino half in this space must be the same number of pips.

• Not Equal: Every domino half in this space must have a completely different number of pips.

• Less than: Every domino half in this space must add up to less than the number.

• Greater than: Every domino half in this space must add up to more than the number.

If an area does not have any color coding, it means there are no conditions on the portions of dominoes within those spaces.
