My kids call it the Cybertruck of washing machines, and…
PlayStation’s reported move away from physical discs already looked bad for players who still care about owning games. Now it sounds messy for the companies expected to sell, support, and build around Sony’s ecosystem. High Chaos Run reports that Sony’s decision to end physical disc production for PS5, and likely PS6 in 2028, came without warning publishers, business partners, or some regional operations. If accurate, Sony didn’t only create another fight over PlayStation discs. It left parts of its own games business catching up after the decision was already public. Who learned too late A digital-first PlayStation future isn’t shocking…
Asus ExpertBook Ultra MSRP $3,599.99 “One of the finest business laptops out there.” Pros Terrific build in a sleek form OLED display with anti-glare Massive and reliable trackpad Solid Panther Lake performance Adequate battery mileage Audio output is punchy Cons Matte layer is an OLED trade-off It’s quite expensive Deserves more GPU power Quick Review I have spent the better part of a decade being bored to tears by business laptops. They are the beige minivans of the tech world, which broadly means sensible, reliable, and about as exciting as a quarterly compliance meeting. So when ASUS sent me the…
I previously covered the new Apple Home AI features revealed at WWDC 2026, which include several quality-of-life improvements, including auto-updating notifications, smarter camera search, automatic tracking and stitching of multiple videos for a single event, and higher-resolution recordings, among others. Like many Apple Home features, these features are only available to iCloud+ customers. However, at the event, Apple didn’t notify which plans will get access to these features. Today, we get the answer in the release notes of macOS Golden Gate beta 3, and you are not going to like it. What’s the hidden cost of Home AI features Apple…
If you’ve ever fumbled through Bluetooth settings to fine-tune how much outside noise your AirPods let in, Apple may be about to save you a few taps. iOS 27 beta 3 adds a quicker way to adjust Adaptive Audio intensity, and it lives right where you’d expect it to. A shortcut for adjusting Adaptive Audio In the current stable iOS release, adjusting Adaptive Audio intensity means opening Settings, tapping Bluetooth, hitting the info button next to your AirPods, then dragging a slider under Audio. iOS 27 beta 3 changes that by surfacing the intensity option right in the main AirPods…
Checking in on aging parents usually means playing a proactive game. Are they okay? Did they sleep well? Would you even know if something was wrong before it became serious? You have to be constantly vigilant and check in with your elders. Carely wants to remove that guesswork entirely, and it does so without a screen, an app your parents need to open, or a single daily check-in call. JUST IN: @meetcarely is turning elder care into passive alerts instead of constant check-ins.It’s a screenless wearable that learns normal routines, tracks key health signals, and alerts the family when something…
X is giving creators on iOS a reason to stop reaching for third-party apps every time they want to polish a clip. The company just announced a redesigned Video Editor and Recorder, introducing tools creators have been asking for since before the platform even carried the X name. The launch closely follows X’s renewed push into live video, where the company introduced a new Live Studio hub and dangled a million-dollar creator payout to get more people streaming on the platform. Captions and custom backgrounds built-in The new video editor lets users overlay captions directly onto their videos in multiple…
Reddit has become one of the internet’s favorite places to share opinions. You can find just about any community there, no matter how niche. But there is a new problem in the platform, and it’s the brands and marketers. Brands and agencies are now planting promotional posts and comments on Reddit in the hope that tools such as ChatGPT and Gemini will later surface them as genuine recommendations. The practice is part of generative engine optimization, or GEO, an emerging marketing strategy focused on influencing chatbot answers rather than conventional Google results. Now, Reddit is fighting back with an AI…
It has been a year since I uninstalled Instagram from my phone and reclaimed about two hours of my time every day. I was tired of seeing what random people were up to on the weekend, how I was still filing articles on a Sunday, and quietly getting jealous of people I don’t even know. What I’d rather have any day is a place to share and relive moments with people I genuinely care about, without an algorithm, strangers, or the dopamine trap. Oddly enough, iOS 27’s Photos App comes with an overhauled Shared Albums that is exactly that. Ever…
A few days ago, one of my colleagues asked me a favor. They wanted a few iOS and macOS screenshots turned into a mockup image where the UI is rendered on an iPhone and a MacBook. The problem? It was 3 am PST, which meant asking one of my design team colleagues was out of the question. Now, there are plenty of online tools that will do it, but you either have to pay for a subscription (as in Canva), or sign up to buy usage credits after a few free trials. Moreover, these editors limit you to a handful…
