On a sunny Friday afternoon in a park overlooking the Silver Lake Reservoir in Los Angeles, about 30 people—including three in costume as Uncle Sam, Darth Vader, and Elsa from Frozen—gathered to hear the first official stump speech of Dan Greaney, candidate for the 2028 US presidential election.“My fellow Americans,” Greaney began, standing at a lectern in front of a row of American flags flapping in a light breeze. After this opening, he added, “Yeah, let’s go with that. It’s a classic.”That self-aware little aside is the sort of thing you’d expect from a veteran TV writer who has worked…
Grand Theft Auto VI has been scaring away basically every other major publisher from releasing a game in November 2026. Except the rights holder to a cult-hit 2002 GameCube fighting game. According to a new leak, a remaster of Godzilla: Destroy All Monsters Melee will arrive just a couple weeks earlier. Finally, something else to play that month. Billbil-kun at Dealabs Magazine reports that the the currently unannounced game will arrive on November 3 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and Switch 2. It’s being developed by Pipeworks and published by Atari, and will arrive with some new bells and…
The iPhone 18 Pro doesn’t need to start a new fire. It just needs to keep the iPhone 17 fire alive until the iPhone 20 – the anniversary job – arrives in 2027.The phenomenal success of the iPhone 17 family is happening in a very interesting context. While the US’ overall smartphone market is declining almost 6% in Q1 2026 (compared to 2025), Apple’s smartphone sales grew 1.3% year-over-year at home. And we’re in the middle of the RAMpocalypse storm. Hey, I hope it’s the middle; fingers crossed that this isn’t only the beginning.Because of it, both the vanilla Galaxy…

Final Fantasy VII‘s Tifa Lockhart will be Street Fighter 6‘s latest guest character. The RPG martial arts powerhouse is joining as part of the Capcom fighting game’s year 4 slate of new characters. She’ll even be arriving with a unique magic system to augment her move set. “Tifa is a character loved by players all around the world,” Final Fantasy VII director Naoki Hamaguchi said on stage during her Summer Game Fest reveal. “That’s exactly why this was done to bring to life a Tifa who truly fights within the world of Street Fighter 6.” According to the fighting game’s…
Earlier this week, I did a quick overview of the upcoming European laws on batteries in small and medium-size electronics. How did it all start? The European Commission building in Brussels, Belgium. | Image by Wikipedia In a nutshell, the European Commission wants most gadgets to have user-replaceable batteries, ones that don’t require specific tools to be swapped at home by basically anyone.The big caveat is that these laws, which will take effect in February 2027, don’t apply to smartphones that have an IP rating and can retain 80% of their battery capacity after 1000 charge cycles.Well, this practically means…
Performance-wise, there’s no pedal-assist or throttle lag, as I’ve experienced on some cheaper ebikes. I thought this would feel unnervingly fast, but the sturdy frame and wide tires are incredibly stable. I felt totally comfortable going fast (for an ebike). I avoided taking corners and tight turns at full speed because the bike is so heavy, but otherwise, I felt self-assured during testing.With a 505-pound on-bike weight limit, the Nomad 2 has a higher load capacity than other ebikes I’ve tested, particularly folding models. Velotric also advertises a 1,000-pound towing capacity. That number registers impressively high to me, but I…
Last year’s Game Awards infamously ended with a trailer for Highguard, a live-service free-to-play shooter that didn’t even stick around for three full months before being shut down due to low player count. For Summer Game Fest 2026, show creator and host Geoff Keighley is trying to avoid a repeat of that situation. On June 5, about an hour before the event was set to kick off, Keighley teased on Twitter that the final reveal of the event wouldn’t be an online live-service multiplayer game like Highguard. “Today’s final announcement at #SummerGamefest will be a single-player, narrative game,” posted Keighley.…
Your Pixel phone comes with some really cool hidden features that you might not be aware of. One of these is the “Take a Message” feature in Google’s phone app. It is reportedly getting a very useful upgrade, which would make it even better than before.What exactly is the Take a Message feature?Take a Message is a very useful feature that was recently introduced with the Pixel 10 lineup. It’s basically a smarter alternative to voicemails, and it automatically answers and transcribes calls for you. When you are unable to take a call for any reason, the feature automatically asks…
Meta has been quietly stashing dormant face recognition code on more than 50 million phones, WIRED reported this week, tucked inside the companion app that pairs with its Ray-Ban and Oakley smart glasses. If activated, the feature—known internally as NameTag—would let wearers identify people in front of them by matching captured faces against a biometric gallery sitting on the user’s device. It’s the same kind of technology Meta said it walked away from in 2021, after paying out billions of dollars to settle biometric privacy lawsuits in Texas and Illinois.Meanwhile, xAI is asking a federal judge to force four people…
