If you ever played any of the past Gears of War games online against other people, you almost definitely had to interact with players wall-bouncing around levels with shotguns. This has long been a part of the Gears multiplayer meta. But that will be changing in the upcoming Gears of War: E-Day, according to the devs behind the prequel shooter. Last weekend during Summer Game Fest season, Xbox finally gave us a good look at Gears of War: E-Day, which is launching on October 6 on Xbox and PC. (And not PS5.) While visually it looks a lot like your…

Carriers love it when customers upgrade to their newest, most expensive plans. Subscribers, on the other hand, like holding onto older plans that tend to be cheaper and more straightforward. To get customers to switch, carriers employ various tactics. Verizon may have gone too far with its latest one.Legacy customers excluded from discounts Verizon tricking loyal customers into paying more. | Image by Reddit user ViralSavage As of June 4, Verizon customers attempting to switch from grandfathered plans to MyPlan are being disqualified from receiving the standard $10 autopay discount the plan promises. Before making this change, Verizon slashed the…

A lot of cars start as a nice idea. You picture quiet roads, spontaneous trips, and that small thrill of owning something with a bit of personality. Then normal life gets involved. When a Car Gets Used Less, Every Cost Feels Bigger  A car that spends most of its time parked has a harder time justifying itself. The occasional service bill, tyre replacement, or battery issue feels very different when you’re only driving a few times each month. The reality is that cars continue to cost money whether they’re being driven or not. Insurance, road tax, maintenance, parking, and routine…

For the past year, Spotify has been quietly purging tens of thousands of podcasts that advertised illegal online pharmacies. A report released Thursday by Senator Maggie Hassan, ranking member of the Joint Economic Committee, faults the company for acting only after news outlets exposed the content and her office spent nearly a year pressing for answers.None of what it removed was sent to law enforcement, the report says.Spotify reportedly removed more than 57,000 podcast episodes and 3,000 shows, and took enforcement action against 3,500 accounts, all pushing links to illegal online pharmacies advertising opioids, benzodiazepines, and stimulants for sale without…

Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio’s output is possessed by a fighting spirit. Across the Yakuza series, RGG’s most beloved property, there has been no shortage of scraps, brawls, melees, scuffles, and fights for Kiryu, his allies, and foes. Even now, as the studio branches into other worlds and franchises like Virtua Fighter, it cannot help but come back to that vicious and elegant pugnacity. Its latest, Stranger Than Heaven, is just as driven by this call to conflict and violence.  However, all those struggles are often a means towards an end. Kiryu fights a lot, but at least he is clear…

For a few weeks now, Amazon has had a generous deal on the Pixel 10, allowing shoppers hunting for a new high-end phone to get this bad boy for less than $600. If you open your calculator app and do the math, you’ll see a sweet $200 discount, as the phone’s usual cost is around $800.I don’t know about you, but for me, saving $200 on one of the best phones currently on the market is an opportunity I wouldn’t want to miss out on. Not to mention that the deal applies to all color options, so you can pick…

Being away from the office means working on my laptop—and with that comes productivity slipping away into oblivion. The problem, for me at least, is the screen, or rather, the lack of them. A portable monitor solves this dilemma handily, working just like an external monitor setup does in the office, but with mobility also in mind. While larger portable monitors (especially multi-panel ones) may require a dedicated power connection, most can use your laptop’s USB port for all the juice they need.The portable monitor category is a very large one, occupied by both name-brand producers of laptops and desktop…

How to Run AI Coding Agents Continuously for Days Decompose all work into atomic, file-scoped task files with explicit acceptance criteria and constrained file lists.Create a CLAUDE.md persistent memory file committed to the repo with architectural rules, active tasks, and do-not-touch zones.Write an orchestration script that feeds tasks sequentially to the Claude Code CLI in isolated sessions.Gate every task completion with automated tests, linting, and type checks before allowing a commit.Commit after every completed task so rollback is always a single git revert.Retry failed tasks automatically with a cap, then move persistent failures to a review queue.Update CLAUDE.md as part…

As Microsoft starts to slowly acknowledge that spending a cool $69 billion to acquire Activision Blizzard may not have been the most financially sound idea, it’s been revealed that one of the studios bundled in the deal used the merger as an opportunity to escape. In an interview with GamesRadar+, Toys for Bob studio head Paul Yan said the merger offered the team a chance to “take back creative control of the kinds of projects that we can focus on.” Toys for Bob has a long history of working on the kind of video game you’d find buried in a…
