That doesn’t mean the error-corrected qubit was fully stable. Eventually, one of the errors that inevitably occurred couldn’t be recovered from because too many of its individual atoms changed state at once. But performing normal error correction could keep some of these logical qubits stable for up to 90 rounds. Again, that’s not good enough for any sort of sophisticated calculation. But it’s a lot closer than the company was before working out this technique. Resonating EeroQ is a startup with a distinct approach to qubits. A number of companies are looking into using the spin of electrons as their…

While the Vision Pro still remains the most ambitious Apple product ever made, and it does do a number of impressive things, the tech giant is reportedly eliminating the spatial computer’s successor models. The change in plans has been decided on by incoming CEO John Ternus, who apparently made the decision to do this a while ago. Apple will instead focus on its smart glasses, which not only have more appeal for a broader range of consumers, but are also cheaper.Will smart glasses be the first big product to kick off Apple’s Ternus era?This information came from TF International analyst Ming-Chi Kuo,…

PlayerUnknown reveals money troubles. An unlikely collaboration forms in Japan. And the Sony State of Play hangover remains. It’s the Kotaku Checkpoint roundup for June 3, 2026, where I am still recovering from my time jumping back into Marathon, which felt exactly as disorienting as this. Maybe tonight I’ll lick my wounds and go build a Gundam in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom instead. God of War Laufey gets snagged in the reactionary blowback The next game set in the God of War universe does not star Kratos. Instead, Faye, his dead wife, is taking over the reins in the afterlife.…

Jordan vs. Algeria isn’t a soul-stirring World Cup matchup for most soccer fans.They’re the 63rd and 29th best teams in the world, according to FIFA rankings. The game will be played at the San Francisco Bay Area Stadium (officially called Levi’s Stadium) in Santa Clara, yet both nations’ diaspora are more heavily concentrated on the East Coast. And alongside exorbitant ticket prices and travel costs, Algerians hoping to make the trip have faced up to $15,000 US visa bond payments.Despite this, FIFA is charging $450 for a so-so view by the corner flag. Yet on its official marketplace, where existing…

The future of internet search may or may not be AI, but Google just gave the option for websites to say no to AI and exclude themselves from AI search results.The company posted on its official blog earlier today, saying that it will start testing a toggle inside of its Search Console to give webmasters the ability to remove domains from AI search results. This new toggle will roll out for a small set of test domains in the UK and then spread globally.”Sites that opt out will not receive traffic or impressions from our generative AI features,” reads part…

Other Good 3-in-1 Travel ChargersPhotograph: Simon HillKuxiu Qi2 25W Travel Charging Station for $78: This charger folds down to an impressively small package, and it feels sturdy with a silicone-covered metal construction. It can hit 25 watts for supported Qi2 W25 phones, comes in a few different finishes, and ships with a 45-watt power adapter and USB-C cable in the box. Unfortunately, I don’t like the way it looks, and I found it awkward to get all three devices charging at once. It’s actually so compact that it feels crowded.UAG 3-in-1 Travel and Desktop Charger Photograph: Simon HillUAG 3-in-1 Travel…
