Reckless Ben, the content creator who recently exploded in popularity after a series of videos investigating a missing Lego Star Wars collection worth $200,000, has fled to Mexico following his arrest by the American Fork Police Department in Utah. The oddly contrived mystery surrounding the justification for Ben’s arrest has resulted in a “Mormon Mafia” conspiracy trending online, as those following the story believe that the owners of Lego aftermarket reseller Bricks & Minifigs, who are accused of stealing the collection, are being assisted by American Fork police due to their connections with the Mormon church. If you need some…
The American Medical Association came out swinging this weekend at an executive order President Trump signed Friday that reaffirms intentions to model US childhood vaccine recommendations after those of Denmark—a country with universal healthcare, less diversity, and a population about the size of Maryland’s. “There is no credible scientific evidence to support,” such a change, AMA President Bobby Mukkamala said in a statement. The current vaccine schedule “is built on decades of rigorous research and real-world data, and it is designed to protect children in the US when they are most vulnerable based on our nation’s disease burden,” he said.…
It’s bad enough when a T-Mobile rep pulls off a “cramming” scam. That’s when the carrier’s employee, in order to reach his performance goals, adds items to a customer’s purchase without the latter’s consent or knowledge. This is often accompanied by a little lie such as, “You won’t see any change to your monthly bill,” or, “This will actually lower your bill each month.”T-Mobile store manager uses both “cramming” and “slamming” to make herself look goodWhen the customer asks about all of the extra accessories he is receiving, the rep will tell him that the charger, case, screen protector, P360…
007: First Light is a damn fine video game. Over the weekend, I marathoned IOI’s next big adventure and had a blast with it. But about 12 or so times during my 14-hour playthrough, I was randomly disconnected from the game while playing single player and it was always very annoying. At one point, I was creeping through a level and was about to go up behind a random grunt and take him down silently. But as I approached, a big annoying pop-up message stopped the action to tell me that I had been “disconnected” from IOI’s servers and that…
Hope you like augmented reality Even though the internal specs on the X20 are unchanged from last year’s ROG Xbox Ally X, the surface improvements sound like a welcome refresh to Asus’ promising line of handheld gaming PCs. Unfortunately, Asus seems to be positioning the X20 as a limited-edition bundled curiosity rather than a new standard-bearer for handheld gaming. That’s because today’s announcement of the ROG Xbox Ally X was really an announcement of an “All-New ROG Xbox Ally X20 bundle,” as Asus puts it (emphasis added). The hardware is currently positioned only as part of a special “20th anniversary”…
The fate of all franchises, of all canon, is to descend into self-referential madness.Guns of the Patriots infamously tells players that “War has changed.” Whereas conflicts in the series prior to this were primarily ideological struggles, most of the bloodshed in Metal Gear Solid 4 is a matter of business. Viewed metaphorically, it’s hard not to think of what that says about the game itself. It is a product, it exists as much as a matter of money-making as artistic drive. This anxiety, the tension between these two extremes, forms much of the game’s emotional core. This game is a…

It’s A Cyberdeck With All The Fun Removed HP announced the EliteBoard G1a series of PCs in a keyboard, essentially an entire system with a Thunderbolt/ USB4 port to connect to an external monitor. If you don’t have a monitor that can handle USB-C then don’t worry, HP has an HDMI dock they would be happy to sell you along with the EliteBoard G1a. On the plus side they did include a wireless 675M mouse that can handle Bluetooth or a 5-GHz USB-C dongle. As you would expect there is an optional 65W USB-C power adapter to power your EliteBoard…
Anthropic submitted confidential paperwork for an initial public offering on Monday, the first step in what could be a blockbuster debut for the $965 billion company. The filing with US regulators is another entry in what looks to be a historic year for IPOs as artificial intelligence labs vie to fund their expensive research.Anthropic announced the filing in an unsigned, two-paragraph blog post, noting that the amount of money it is seeking to raise—and at what valuation—has not been set. The company said that the timing of the IPO would “depend on market conditions and other factors.” The announcement comes…
Lucy James spent over a decade as a video producer and on-air personality at GameSpot. Now she’s leaving to join the growing ranks of games media talent who are going independent.
