Adam Strauss is standing in his New York City apartment, holding the limp cord of his headphones, trying to choose between the two MP3 players on his desk: the iPod and the iRiver, its Korean counterpart. He cues up the same song on each, toggling the silver plug of his headphones back and forth like a 1930s switchboard operator.He tries different songs, different genres, different instruments. The iRiver tends to sound better overall, but the iPod offers a little more nuance in the midrange. The iPod has a better battery life, but the iRiver still lasts eight hours—­longer than he’s…

In the summer of 2003, college student Mara Whitefish and her friends venture outside the city to a party at the home of a successful young writer, one of many seizing the advent of online blogs to make a name for himself. Among the guests are people Mara knows well, people she’s only loosely connected to, and people she doesn’t know at all. During the day, a family can be seen in the yard, including two young children running and playing with boundless energy. By evening, the family has left, but playing as Mara, I noticed a new detail had…

If you’re a WIRED reader who uses AI in any creative context, I’d suggest staying far, far away from anyone involved in the TV show Hacks. In an interview earlier this year, actor Hannah Einbinder (who plays young comedy writer Ava Daniels on the show) described AI creators as “losers,” “not artists,” and “not special.”The show’s cocreators couldn’t agree more. In a wide-ranging conversation for The Big Interview ahead of the Hacks series finale on HBO Max, Paul W. Downs and Lucia Aniello were resolute about the value of human creativity—and what can be lost when AI enters the picture.If…

Apple has grand plans for the iPhone 20 Pro coming out next year to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the iPhone. But before that, this year’s iPhone 18 Pro has something up its sleeve as well, something that is already proving popular with the masses.Apple’s plan for the iPhone 20 ProIn 2027, Apple wants to make an iPhone Pro model that has no notches, punch holes, or any other form of cutout across the display. In addition, the display will ever so gently meld into the chassis of the phone so as not to distort the contents of the screen…

Back in 2021, Sega announced that it was partnering with Microsoft to create a “Super Game,” a “large-scale global title” that was set to launch at some point in 2026. Since then, we’ve only really heard small references to the project through Sega’s fiscal earnings reports–and today’s news is no different in that respect, as Sega has just unceremoniously revealed that the Super Game project has been canceled. Considering the project was announced roughly five years ago, the way in which Sega has opted to reveal its cancellation feels oddly nonchalant, as the only reference to the project is a…

The role of advanced analytics in sports is a contentious subject. To its defenders, data-driven pragmatism is a natural evolutionary step in the way we play and watch games. For detractors, the approach prioritizes results above all else and drains the soul from a pursuit that should be spontaneous and joyful.As someone who is neither pragmatic nor spontaneous, I don’t qualify for either camp, though I find the very notion of applying this kind of research to soccer fascinating and even admirable. The game is resistant to orderly examination by design. Like preparing a tax return for a housecat, it…

Power banks are pretty common nowadays, right? You probably have one in the drawer, ready to take with you for a trip or just for that one day where you forgot to charge your phone or smartwatch.But the reality of most powerbanks is that they can’t output enough juice to power something bigger — like a laptop. Or, at best, they can charge a lower-powered netbook class.Either that, or they are huge and chunky and take a significant slot in your backpack.What if we can have a powerbank that’s almost as compact as the regular smartphone-charging ones, but packs a…

Breaking Bad and Westworld actor Aaron Paul is joining Prime Video’s Fallout TV show for its upcoming third season, the streamer has announced.There is no word yet on the character that Paul will play on the show. It’s not the first time he’s worked with Fallout producers Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy. He starred in Season 3 of Westworld, which Nolan and Joy produced.Season 3 is rumored to head to New Vegas, so it could be a full circle moment for Paul. As some may recall, Paul attended the Fallout: New Vegas launch party in 2010, and the images are…

Farrah was fed up with her vagina.For the past two years, the 29-year-old dancer from Ohio had been dealing with severe pelvic pain and vaginal odor. “It was like 8/10, horrible core pain,” she says. “I couldn’t lie down. I couldn’t even work an office job. It was bad.”When she visited doctors, she told them what she thought the culprit was: an allergic reaction to soy oil in a vat of water she’d swam in during a pirate-themed dinner theater performance. But they didn’t believe her. “They attempted to fix it with antibiotics,” she says. “And they just did nothing.”So…

Motorola’s latest stylus phone may not get a serious discount any time soon, but I’ve got great news for users seeking a pen-wielding device at a decent price. Amazon just dropped an ultra-rare offer on the Moto G Stylus (2025), making it impossible to ignore.For a limited time, the e-commerce giant is allowing you to save 21% on this Android phone, slashing it right under the $315 mark.
