If you’ve paid any attention to Google lately, you know that it wants us using its AI tools. So much so that Chrome apparently downloads a 4GB file containing details for running Gemini Nano, Google’s on-device LLM. Computer scientist Alexander Hanff published the details earlier this week on his website The Privacy Guy and goes into extreme detail on why this isn’t a good look for Google. I just verified what he said about the file, named “weights.bin” and found itin the Chrome folder in the macOS Library directory (which is ordinarily hidden so that users don’t mess with potentially…
2026 is truly raising the game for cosplay. After the extraordinary outfits we featured that appeared at WonderCon, we’ve got another extraordinary gallery of incredible costumes from 2026’s Lvl Up Expo, via the photography magic of Mineralblu. The Vegas show, which is all about pop culture and gaming, has cosplay at its core, and people really delivered. Dispatch was once again featured, alongside some very imaginative takes on the regulars, such as Overwatch, Resident Evil and Minecraft. You’ve never seen an Ender Dragon quite like this one. There are also some exquisite recreations of fits from World of Warcraft and Silent Hill, and…
Summer is right around the corner. We’re headed out on adventures and bringing our stuff with us. Here are all the tech and tips that WIRED Reviews recommends for your travels.There is a surprisingly robust debate among frequent travelers about whether it’s best to carry on a suitcase or to check it. Sure, checking a bag saves you from worrying about space restrictions and confusing security requirements, needing to tote your suitcase into a bathroom stall with you, and sweating about snagging overhead bin space once you board. But you need only one really bad experience with checking luggage to…
I’m looking at Volume 1,536 of the Epstein files, page 311. It’s an early 2016 email thread between Jeffrey Epstein and a woman whose name is redacted by the Department of Justice.In the thread, Epstein asks the unidentified woman for a “naughty selfie” and later sends her a camera. In late February, he replies with a different ask: “Do you have any friends that might want to work for me?…I will give you money if you find someone willing to travel, 22-25, educated. Personable.”The exchange carries extra resonance when you consider that Epstein is accused of sex trafficking minors, with…
Earlier this week, Kotaku reported on the leak from well-known Ubisoft insider j0nathan, who claimed that playtests for a long-rumored PvP-style Assassin’s Creed title, codenamed “Invictus,” had been held in late April. Well, j0nathan is back with a new Assassin’s Creed Invictus leak, but said leak isn’t being as well-received as the last one…mostly because the official Assassin’s Creed X account put him on blast for using AI to “heavily” alter the image featured in the leak. Last night, j0nathan posted what he claimed was an image from Assassin’s Creed Invictus’ latest playtest on X. Writing in French, j0nathan said,…

As Mario Gomez-Hall walks me through his new restaurant discovery app, Zest Maps, the founder pauses on its user leaderboard and highlights a profile topping the charts with over 1,000 visits logged. It’s Foursquare cofounder Dennis Crowley, helping test the beta version.“He’s given us really useful feedback,” Gomez-Hall says. “It’s sort of a spiritual successor to Foursquare.” (For those who may not remember, Foursquare was a hot location check-in social app around 2010 when GPS-enabled apps were first trending.)The core gist of Zest Maps, rolling out today for iOS users (no Android support yet), is the automatic logging of every…
Daniel Cooper for Engadget reMarkable is arguably the leader in making e-paper tablets for people who do capital-s Serious capital-w Work. In the last two years, the company has launched the flagship Paper Pro and a smaller sibling, the Paper Pro Move. Now it’s turned its attention back to the lower end of the market with the Paper Pure, a successor to 2020’s reMarkable 2. The reMarkable Paper Pure is a 10.3-inch writing slate designed to mimic the experience of writing on paper. You can use it to write, read…
Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024’s new World Update 21: Australia has arrived, and in addition to adding more cities, airports, and three-dozen new points of interest, the update includes a new mission meant to honor the New South Wales Rural Fire Service (RFS). This is the largest fire service in the world, made up of nearly 70,000 volunteers, and it’s a big job in the country where bushfires are an ongoing threat. Devastating fires in the country in 2019/2020 made international news, with millions of acres burned, more than 30 human deaths, and more than 1.5 billion animals losing their lives…
I like that the ReMarkable Paper Pure kept the thicker side bezel, which the pricier Paper Pro and Paper Pro Move don’t have. It’s a perfect resting spot for my thumb to grab it and start writing, and it responds to rotations, so you can use it comfortably whether you’re right- or left-handed (the stylus will only attach to the long side without the thicker bezel, though, which is a little inconvenient for lefties). It has a fast response time and a smooth writing experience that, like ReMarkable models before it, feels incredibly paperlike with a touch of texture and resistance…
