Dispatch—the first game from AdHoc Studio, which was formed by veterans of Telltale Games— contains a lot of “almosts.” It’s almost a revival of the choice-driven Telltale adventure game we’ve been missing for nearly a decade, but without all the walking around and examining the environment while the game was barely holding itself together. It’s almost a superhero story, but it’s mostly a workplace management sim with superheroes in it. It’s almost as irreverent as Deadpool, but stops short of its fourth-wall-breaking crudeness. I’m still figuring out how I feel about all of those things rolled together in one package,…

On November 2nd, the hour between 1 a.m. and 2 a.m. will happen twice. When we all wake up Sunday morning, we’ll find it’s an hour earlier than it feels like it should be. Then, we’ll go about our day with a blissful extra hour of time. For DST enthusiasts, this represents a sad day that brings an earlier sunset and the start of the dreary winter months. For DST haters (like your…
As a long-time Mint user, I was frustrated to say the least when news broke at the end of 2023 that Intuit would shut Mint down. I, like millions of others, enjoyed how easily Mint allowed us to track all accounts in one place and monitor credit scores. I also used it regularly to track spending, set goals like pay my mortgage down faster and with general money management.So I set out to find the best Mint alternatives in the wake of its disappointing demise. I gave Credit Karma, Intuit’s other financial app, a try but found it to be…

I love an action RPG. Though I suck at math really bad, following the call of “number go up” while also having my reflexes tested is a blast. Unfortunately, games like Diablo IV and Path of Exile 2 have an online component that I can’t always keep up with. Fortunately, an upcoming game looks like it will bottle up some high fantasy action RPG goodness without requiring me to keep up with an online service or corral a bunch of friends. Loulan: The Cursed Sand, from developer ChillyRoom, just got a reveal trailer today, showing off some epic combat and…
AMD is working with the US Department of Energy to build sovereign AI supercomputers at Oak Ridge National Laboratory, the agency’s famous research and development center. NVIDIA describes sovereign AI as “a nation’s capabilities to produce artificial intelligence using its own infrastructure, data, workforce and business networks.” The company’s products will power Lux and Discovery, which will be built by Hewlett Packard Enterprises and will become the DoE’s flagship supercomputers under the Trump administration’s AI Action Plan. AMD says the supercomputers’ development is made possible by a $1 billion investment from private and public funding and that they will help…

Previously loyal subjects plot to overthrow their leader. A new, more virile ruler ascends. This is not the plot of a new Game of Thrones spinoff, but a common and violent reality in honey bee colonies. As with any coups, the plans come with risks and rewards for bee colonies and the wide food systems that depend on them for pollination. This process, called supersedure, happens when the tens of thousands of worker bees can…
If you thought OnePlus was done announcing battery heavyweights with impressively thin bodies and remarkably low prices (in China) for the fall, a rumor from a couple of days ago that initially escaped my radar suggests that might not be the case.Instead, the company is likely to have at least one more ace (pun certainly intended) left up its sleeve, and although it’s not entirely clear when this will be showcased, I’m more than willing to wait however long it takes for the 8,000mAh cell-packing “Turbo” to see daylight.What an epic spec sheet!Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 processor;6.7-inch OLED screen…
