If you’ve shopped for a smartphone with a good camera recently, chances are you’ve checked out the DxOMark camera score of the device. In the recent past, you might have seen these scores slapped on its spec sheet or marketing materials.

But should these DxOMark scores really impact your purchasing decision?1. How DxOMark actually scores smartphone cameras DxOMark began as an independent image quality lab focused on testing cameras and lenses, and…

A disparate collection of young stellar objects bejewels a cosmic panorama in the star-forming region NGC 1333 in this new image from NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope. To the left, an actively forming star called a protostar casts its glow on the surrounding gas and dust, creating a reflection nebula. Two dark stripes on opposite sides of the bright point (upper left) are its protoplanetary disk, a region where planets could form, and the disk’s shadow, cast across the large envelope of material around the star. Material accumulates onto the protostar through this rotating disk of gas and dust, a product…
We aren’t even two weeks into the new year and Ubisoft is already looking to carry out its second round of layoffs in 2026. The company has informed workers at Massive Entertainment and Ubisoft Stockholm of a “proposed organizational restructure” that could affect around 55 roles across its two Swedish studios. Workers at Massive (the developer of The Division series, Star Wars Outlaws and Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora) were offered voluntary buyouts late last year as part of Ubisoft’s ongoing cost-cutting efforts.”This restructure follows the completion of the Voluntary Leave Program launched during the fall of 2025, a finalized long-term…
Living in central North Carolina, it’s rarely too cold for me to be outdoors. Throughout the winter, I enjoy regular walks alone, often as a recovery routine from my more rigorous workouts, and stroll with my family for some quality post-dinner time together. However, as an avid football and cycling fan, my idea of a happy Sunday often includes at least a few sedentary hours in front of the television, watching my favorite sports.Enter the Urevo SpaceWalk 5L walking pad, where, with a setup that includes little more than plugging the machine into my wall, I can spend those mindless…

The 5,300-year-old Ötzi the Iceman mummy and a prehistoric man who lived in Siberia 45,000 years ago both carried a cancer-causing strain of human papillomavirus (HPV), new research finds.Scientists analyzed ancient genetic data previously collected from the individuals, and found that both were likely infected with HPV16, a preprint paper posted to bioRxiv on Dec. 16, reported. In the study, which has yet to undergo peer-review, the authors present what they say is the “earliest molecular evidence” of HPV16 in modern humans.This extremely early evidence of HPV16 in modern humans challenges the idea that Neanderthals, who overlapped with us in…
Insta360, a company most known for its , has released two new AI-powered 4K webcams, the Link 2 Pro and Link 2C Pro, aimed at creators, educators and remote professionals.

My kids also enjoyed Save the Bloogs, an obviously Lemmings-inspired platformer, where you use the pieces as ladders, bridges, and canons to guide the cute wee Bloogs away from impending death. Board Arcade is the only one that reuses pieces, with spaceships and robots adding physical controls to versions of classics like Snake and Asteroids.Most of the games are marked as age 6 and up, and I’d expect young kids to love this. The dull digital pet Mushka is clearly aimed at wee ones. Sadly, a couple of the more interesting titles, international mystery Spycraft and strategy face-off Thrasos, are…
