The Internet Archive and Automattic have teamed up to tackle one of the web’s biggest annoyances: “link rot.” The two companies have released a new WordPress plugin called Link Fixer that automatically redirects broken links to archived versions so readers never hit a dead page. Link rot happens when URLs in older posts stop working because the linked pages are deleted, moved, or otherwise dissapear over time. Research shows that nearly 40% of links from just over a decade ago no longer lead anywhere, leaving old posts full of dead ends. To address this, Link Fixer scans WordPress posts for…

Two Amiibo are planned, one for Grace and one for Leon, but those won’t be available until the summer. They will apparently unlock weapon skins to be used in game. Resident Evil Requiem launches on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S,…

While fiber internet isn’t exactly new, it remains the clear benchmark for fast home broadband. Cable providers lean on asymmetrical speeds and 5G home internet continues to wrestle with congestion and variability, but fiber delivers what power users actually care about: consistent performance, low latency, and truly symmetrical upload and download speeds. What has changed is how fiber is priced. The best fiber internet deals hinge less on flashy introductory rates and more on the total cost of ownership: factoring in mobile bundles, equipment fees (or the lack of them), price guarantees, and cash-back incentives. Get those details right, and…

Hot off the heels of Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade hitting Switch 2 (and running extremely well), Square Enix has announced the second part of the Remake trilogy, Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, is hitting Switch 2 just a few months after its predecessor finally made the leap. While Final Fantasy VII Remake focuses on the party’s time in Midgar, Rebirth sees the party escape the metropolis to explore several sprawling, open biomes across the Planet. Final Fantasy VII Rebirth tells the story of a party not only on the run from the forces of Shinra, but also in pursuit of the…

In a rather surprising development, Hyundai is skipping the 2026 Kona Electric in the United States. The Korean automaker has paused the production of the current-generation Kona EV as dealerships clear out existing stock. In a statement to Car and Driver, a Hyundai representative said there’s “adequate stock of the 2025 model year” Kona EV to meet demand at this time. What’s behind Hyundai’s Kona EV hiatus The company has also confirmed that the pause is just a breather (at least for now), as the assembly is “scheduled to resume this June as a 2027 model year.” But does Hyundai…

A couple of days ago, a Dutch publication shared pictures of the first-party transparent cases for the Galaxy S26. Some of them had a magnetic ring, while the others didn’t, leading to speculation about the absence of native Qi2 wireless charging (along with the built-in magnets). All the smartphones in Samsung’s upcoming series are believed to be light on hardware upgrades, and among the few silver linings for buyers was magnetic wireless charging. I’ve confirmed from independent sources with 100% accuracy that the Galaxy S26 Ultra ultimately does not include built-in magnets inside the device. Magnetic functionality still relies on…

You no longer need an engineering degree to print a Baby Yoda. A few years ago, 3D printing was a hobby defined by troubleshooting: leveling beds with sheets of paper, unclogging nozzles, and tightening belts. In 2026, the technology has finally matured into an “appliance” phase. Modern beginner printers now calibrate themselves. They use sensors to map the print bed, adjust the nozzle height automatically, and even compensate for vibration to ensure smooth walls. If you are looking to get into the hobby, do not accept a machine that requires manual tinkering. The “no-brainer” pick Bambu Lab A1 Mini This…
