“What does it do?” my friend asked as we sat there staring at the chrome-pink, futuristic looking cylinder set on the table. “It’s just a water bottle,” I said.“It doesn’t filter your water? Keep track of how much you drink?” she asked. I shrugged. “Nope, I guess it does look cool though.” My friend was asking because Okapa, a brand with just one product, sells its flagship water bottle for $295.For context, most high-end water bottles top out around $50, or maybe $100-150 if they have fancy features like self-cleaning UV lights, built-in filters, or app connectivity to monitor your…

SouljaGame Flip appears to just be a Retroid Pocket Flip 2, except that it costs more than double ($435 vs $210) and will be shipped to you from some other warehouse. “Not a single gamer…

In the fight against cancer, an important field of research is the search for safe alternatives to chemotherapy and radiotherapy.

Their materials are tin oxide (SnOx) nanoflakes, tiny particles that have a thickness of less than 20…

After rumors and leaks, Fortnite’s new Simpsons-themed mini-season went live over the weekend, and I had a giant smile on my face as I ran around the new Springfield map, no matter how many times I got sniped by random Gokus and Peelys. Over the years, I’ve made it very clear that I’m not a fan of the growing trend of crossovers in video games. Sticking Master Chief in Rainbow Six Siege or jamming Godzilla into Call of Duty has always been weird and nasty to me. It feels like all of pop culture is merging into a giant grey…
You may be disappointed if you go looking for Google’s open Gemma AI model in AI Studio today. Google announced late on Friday that it was pulling Gemma from the platform, but it was vague about the reasoning. The abrupt change appears to be tied to a letter from Sen.
