After making the obviously poor decision to kill its XPS laptops and desktops in January 2025, Dell started selling 16- and 14-inch XPS laptops again today. “It was obvious we needed to change,” Jeff Clarke, vice chairman and COO at Dell Technologies, said at a press event in New York City previewing Dell’s CES 2026 announcements. A year ago, Dell abandoned XPS branding, as well as its Latitude, Inspiron, and Precision PC lineups. The company replaced the reputable brands with Dell Premium, Dell Pro, and Dell Pro Max. Each series included a base model, as well as “Plus” and “Premium.”…
We are less than a week into 2026, and it’s already shaping up to be a horrible year. Here’s more evidence of that: An AI-generated manga is topping the charts over in Japan. As reported by Automaton on January 6, a new four-volume manga, My Dear Wife, Will You Be My Lover? (autotranslated title), is currently the top seller in Comic CmoA’s young adult category. The storefront is described as the largest ebook shop in the country. The new manga was created by Mamaya and published by Studio Zoon and tells the tale of a middle-aged husband and his wife…

The microorganisms thrive on mashed grains, converting sugars into both alcohol and carbon dioxide along the way. But there’s not much use for yeast after the pints are poured. However, recent experiments indicate there may be a way to recycle the massive amounts of fermentation waste into something especially sustainable: lab-grown meat. According to a study recently published in Frontiers in Nutrition by researchers at University College London, beer yeast’s second life may come from its…
Not everyone remembers the unique controllers that never quite made it. As third-party peripheral makers attempt to offer gamers something different to the likes of DualSense and Joy-Cons, they often have to go in a different direction. GameSir’s Swift Drive (apparently a working product name) is definitely that. And if you remember 1998’s for the PS1, there’s definitely some shared DNA.It features a compact steering wheel at the center of an otherwise typical controller design. It’s also got force feedback, tech usually found in (full-size!) steering wheel controllers. GameSir says it has a “high precision” Hall Effect encoder built in…
The FCC plan is not limited to jamming of phones on spectrum licensed for the exclusive use of wireless carriers. The FCC additionally sought comment on whether contraband devices operating on Wi-Fi airwaves and other unlicensed spectrum should be subject to jamming. That’s concerning to the Wi-Fi Alliance because Wi-Fi operates on unlicensed spectrum that is shared by many users. “Accordingly, declaring that a jammer on unlicensed spectrum is permitted to disrupt the communications of another device also operating on unlicensed spectrum is contrary to the foundational principle of Part 15 [of FCC rules], under which all unauthorized devices must…
While the first two games added to Xbox Game Pass in January might not knock your socks off, it’s what’s coming later this month that should bring some New Year cheer. By January 13, Game Pass subscribers will have access to Ubisoft’s enormously underrated Star Wars Outlaws, and just a week later the stunning Resident Evil Village brings our favorite tall lady to the service. Added today, January 6, are drunken twin-stick shooter Brews & Bastards (no, me neither, but I’ll be installing it this evening) and Little Nightmares Enhanced Edition. Then as soon as tomorrow, last year’s underdog first-person action game Atomfall…

Like a scene out of a Jules Verne novel, scientists from Schmidt Ocean Institute recently encountered a giant phantom jelly (Stygiomedusa gigantea). The enormous deep-sea jellyfish was spotted about 830 feet below the surface of the Pacific Ocean by a Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV) exploring the Colorado-Rawson submarine canyon wall off the coast of Argentina. During a dive over the winter holidays, the team explored the wall of a submarine canyon and encountered the creature—also called the giant phantom jelly. It is a very rare find,…
Motorola just announced its very first side-foldable smartphone, joining the ranks of the Pixel 10 Pro Fold and the Galaxy Z Fold 7. The Razr Fold boasts an impressive 6.6-inch external screen and an 8.1-inch flexible main display. The company hasn’t provided dimensions, so we don’t know how thick it is.We do know, however, that it’ll include support for the Moto Pen Ultra stylus. This is actually a fairly big deal, as Samsung dropped the feature for the Z Fold 7. Modern foldables basically double as tablets, so a stylus is always appreciated.MotorolaThere’s a robust camera system here, with a…
The Razr Fold will have a triple 50MP camera system. Some foldable devices like the Galaxy Z Fold 7 have flagship-level main sensors, but the others are a big step down due to space constraints. Motorola will use a 50MP Sony Lytia sensor for the primary, along with a 50MP ultrawide (with macro) and a 50MP 3x telephoto. The camera module adds a fair bit of chunk to the back panel—it looks to almost double the thickness of the phone in that area, but Moto has not released official measurements to confirm that. AI-infused software, because of course Motorola is…
After years of development, testing, and jumping through various FDA hoops, the Mor “taint bandage” device is now available to buy. Slap this rumble pack on your down-south valley, and you’ll be able to slow down sexual climax or reach it more intensely via a series of electrical shocks that reportedly feel like vibrations. First revealed back in 2020 as an unnamed and unfinished product jokingly referred to online as the “taint bandage,” the Mor is now a real thing you can buy and use in the United States. As covered by The Verge, the final version of the Mor…
