One of my favorite things about macOS is its support for Menu Bar apps. These apps are small, live in your Menu Bar, and help you perform tasks without launching a full-blown app. Since there’s only a limited number of Menu Bar apps you can install, before it becomes a cluttered mess, I treat it is a prime real estate. Every app wants to park itself up there, but only a few actually earn their spot. After years of installing and uninstalling apps, I have settled on five that I genuinely use every day. There are a few more apps…
After falling in love with Inscryption and, subsequently, Balatro, I’ve enjoyed experiencing how developers experiment with well-established card games by introducing new mechanics and, in the case of Black Jacket, a story. As a soul navigating the afterlife, you progress through Blackjack battle after Blackjack battle, getting your score as close to 21 without going over. As the hands progress, you wager more, with the first player to run out of coins losing. But it’s far from just regular Blackjack, as cards can carry certain effects, like allowing you to peek at your top cards and rearrange them or outright…

Cyberpunk 2077 developer CD Projekt Red revealed that The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, which launched way back in 2015, is getting a third expansion next year. Despite the expansion love for Geralt’s latest/maybe last adventure, it sounds like you shouldn’t expect expansions for The Witcher IV. That’s because CDPR CEO Michał Nowakowski recently stated in an earnings call that including an expansion for The Witcher IV might be tough, considering the studio wants to release three Witcher games in a six-year period, as reported by GamesRadar. We still don’t know when The Witcher IV, which is set to star Ciri, the…
Phone camera partnership had a very rocky start. These collaborations, while bringing big names, felt vague sometimes. Simply slapping a logo on the camera module and making a few color tuning changes will have you wondering how much of it actually changes the photos you take, especially when the price of a phone takes a hike. Such partnerships have been bringing great results in the last couple of years, and a device that really made it apparent was the Xiaomi 17T Pro. I spend a day shooting with it, moving between outdoor portraits, cafe shelves, product displays, and dimly lit…
Dual-mode gaming monitors have been around long enough that the novelty has worn off. MSI has decided that two modes simply aren’t enough and has unveiled the MPG OLED 322URDX36 ahead of Computex 2026. It is the world’s first Triple Mode gaming monitor, and if the execution is as good as it sounds, it could be one of the few gaming monitors that I’d be genuinely interested in. What is Triple Mode and why does it matter? The MPG OLED 322URDX36 lets you switch between three resolution and refresh rate combinations: 4K at 360Hz, 2K at 520Hz, and FHD at…
Xbox has delayed Fable to February 2027. It revealed this in a post on X, explaining that it is delaying Playground Games’ upcoming reboot of the storied Xbox franchise to give it “the dedicated moment it deserves” amid a packed rest of the year. Playground just launched its latest racer, Forza Horizon 6, earlier this month, and it seems the team will get more time to work on Fable now. Xbox has plenty of other 2026 releases, though, to fill the Fable-sized void, including Minecraft Dungeons II, Halo: Campaign Evolved, Gears of War: E-Day, and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4, which just got revealed…
Dell released a wave of new laptops on May 29, 2026, just four days before Computex 2026 opens in Taipei on June 2. Amid a loaded spec sheet, nearly every flagship model in the new batch offers optional 5G cellular connectivity. While the capability has traditionally been reserved for ultraportable or enterprise-grade devices, Dell is signalling that always-connected laptops are no longer a niche requirement. Which Dell laptops now offer 5G in the US? There are three models in this batch that ship with optional 5G cellular connectivity, all from the Pro 7 Series family. First, there’s the Pro 7…
Activision and Infinity Ward revealed Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 yesterday, which will be the first entry in this generation to release only on current-gen consoles, leaving PlayStation 4 and Xbox One behind. It won’t be alone, as Call of Duty Warzone is also abandoning last-gen hardware.In a blog post, Activision announced that Call of Duty’s popular battle royale is being removed from PS4 and Xbox One storefronts on June 4. Once this happens, it will no longer be available for download. If the game is already in your library, you can still install and play Warzone on PS4…
Apple gave Windows laptop makers a serious headache when it launched the MacBook Neo in March at $599. Powered by the A18 chip, it quickly became one of the easiest laptops to recommend for students and casual users who did not specifically need Windows. Acer is now trying to push back with the Swift Air 14, a 14-inch Windows 11 laptop announced just ahead of Computex 2026. It starts at $699 and uses Intel’s new Core Series 3 chips, also known as Wildcat Lake. On paper, it looks like one of the first serious attempts to build a cheaper Windows…
