Fall Coffee Subscription deals are usually the lowest prices of the year. After all, everybody knows you drink more coffee when the weather’s colder. Hot drinks sound refreshing in the chill of the breeze, it’s still dark when you wake up (whyyy?), and you maybe just need a little extra pep to face a wall of gray cloud on the morning commute.But don’t be SAD, there’s cheap coffee—especially from some of WIRED’s favorite coffee subscriptions, including free bags of coffee and discount gift subscriptions from our top single-roaster pick, Atlas Coffee Club, and a steep 50 percent trial month for…
Most smaller galaxies may not have supermassive black holes in their centers, according to a recent study using NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory. This contrasts with the common idea that nearly every galaxy has one of these giant black holes within their cores, as NASA leads the world in exploring how our universe works. A team of astronomers used data from over 1,600 galaxies collected in more than two decades of the Chandra mission. The researchers looked at galaxies ranging in heft from over ten times the mass of the Milky Way down to dwarf galaxies, which have stellar masses less…
OpenAI has been hit with a wrongful death lawsuit after a man back in August, . The suit names CEO Sam Altman and accuses ChatGPT of putting a “target” on the back of victim Suzanne Adams, an 83-year-old woman who was killed in her home.The victim’s estate , 56-year-old Stein-Erik Soelberg, engaged in delusion-soaked conversations with ChatGPT in which the bot “validated and magnified” certain “paranoid beliefs.” The suit goes on to suggest that the chatbot “eagerly accepted” delusional thoughts leading up to the murder and egged him on every step of the way.The lawsuit claims the bot helped create…
As The Game Awards enters its 12th year, it’s worth looking back on some of the highs and lows from TGAs past. Out of the ashes of the Spike VGAs, creator and host Geoff Keighley created an annual gaming staple that highlights some of the biggest and best games for millions watching from home. It honors creators and brands, seeking to elevate the craft and art of games while also leaving room for giant walking razor blade sponsorships.

At a 7-Eleven convenience store in Taiwan, you can pick up a 4-inch plushie of Miffy, the bunny character from the Netherlands, a mini bento box charm complete with a realistic chicken drumstick, or a tiny plastic rotary phone. Produced by iCash Corporation (a 7-Eleven affiliate), these keychains are more than just trinkets: Each contains a contactless chip that connects it to Taiwan’s elaborate stored-value payment system.iCash cards, along with those made by competitors like EasyCard and iPASS, can be used to ride the subway and buses, as well as to make purchases at convenience stores and other retailers in…
Scientists have found that time moves slightly faster on the Red Planet than it does on Earth. Clocks on Mars tick, on average, 0.477 milliseconds (477 microseconds) faster over 24 hours when measured from Earth compared with time recorded on our planet, a new study finds. Knowing this difference may help in establishing an “internet” across the solar system.Over the next few decades, humanity’s presence in the solar system is set to boom, with missions like those in NASA’s Artemis program expected to pave the way for permanent settlements on the moon and beyond. Developing a standard clock for each…
EV automaker Rivian just held its which, unsurprisingly, focused extensively on hands-free driving. An upcoming software update promises the introduction of “universal hands-free” driving. The company says its vehicles will be able to autonomously navigate more than 3.5 million miles of roads in North America, “covering the vast majority of marked roads in the US.”This is coming to the , but also Gen 2 R1 vehicles like the . The service will be locked behind a subscription for something called Autonomy+ that includes self-driving, but also offers access to forthcoming and unannounced autonomous features. Rivian customers can pay $2,500 for…
Many laptop users rely solely on the hardware built into their machines, and while modern laptops are impressively capable, doing everything on the laptop alone can actually hold you back. Even a 17-inch notebook—considered fairly large by portable-PC standards—still feels small compared to the displays most people use today. External monitors commonly start around 27 inches, offering significantly more screen real estate, and some setups go far beyond that with ultra-wide or even 4K panels that dramatically expand your field of view. If you spend a lot of time typing at your desk, you might prefer the feel and responsiveness…
On Thursday, Disney and OpenAI announced a deal that might have seemed unthinkable not so long ago. Starting next year, OpenAI will be able to use Disney characters like Mickey Mouse, Ariel, and Yoda in its Sora video-generation model. Disney will take a $1 billion stake in OpenAI, and its employees will get access to the firm’s APIs and ChatGPT. None of this makes much sense—unless Disney was fighting a battle it couldn’t win.Disney has always been a notoriously aggressive litigant around its intellectual property. Alongside fellow IP powerhouse Universal, it sued Midjourney in June over outputs that allegedly infringed…
NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope captured a blowtorch of seething gasses erupting from a volcanically growing monster star in this image released on Sept. 10, 2025. Stellar jets, which are powered by the gravitational energy released as a star grows in mass, encode the formation history of the protostar. This image provides evidence that protostellar jets scale with the mass of their parent stars—the more massive the stellar engine driving the plasma, the larger the resulting jet.
