Hollywood is always chasing popular trends, from cinematic universes to live-action remakes to, more recently, double features. However, it looks like Marvel Studios may avoid chasing the latter with one of its superhero films. Hollywood insider John Campea reported that Marvel Studios is considering moving the release date of Avengers: Doomsday, saying, “The very non-committable discussions have taken place.” This news suggests the movie may premiere on the same day as Dune: Part Three, thereby burying the “Dunesday” double feature in the sand. It is still too early to say whether this news is true. The announcement comes after Jumanji…

Samsung hasn’t even announced the Galaxy S26 FE, but it’s already appeared on the benchmark listings. Renowned Indian tipster Abhishek Yadav spotted the device in Geekbench’s database under the model number “SM-S741U.”  Screenshots of the listing, however, are still available. The Galaxy S26 FE scored 2,426 points in the single-core and 8,004 points on the multi-core Geekbench 6 CPU test, running Android 17 with 8GB of memory.  What do the numbers actually tell us? In retrospect, those figures land well below what the standard Galaxy S26 putson the board. The Galaxy S26 and the S26 Plus, with Samsung’s Exynos 2600…

Just when it felt like smartphone designs had hit a plateau, something genuinely different shows up. A new device from Bigme is making waves for combining two completely different display technologies into one phone. And no, this isn’t a gimmick flip screen or a folding panel. Instead, it’s a mix of color e-ink and a traditional LCD, and the idea is surprisingly practical. A smartphone with two displays that serve very different purposes The newly spotted device is being touted as the first smartphone to feature both a color e-ink screen and an LCD panel in a single body. The…

Loneliness has quietly become one of the biggest modern problems, and now, AI is stepping in as an unlikely companion. A new study led by Aalto University, set to be presented at CHI 2026, explores how AI companions impact users over time. And the results are a bit of a mixed bag. While interacting with AI companions can help users feel supported and less alone, the study also found signs of increased emotional distress in their online language over time, suggesting the relationship isn’t as simple as it seems. Can AI really make people feel less lonely? According to recent…

LinkedIn might be doing a lot more than just showing you job posts and connection requests. If the latest reports are anything to go by, it’s also quietly peeking into your browser setup. A new investigation is raising serious privacy concerns, claiming the platform is scanning thousands of Chrome extensions and collecting device-level data in the background. And yeah, it’s as uncomfortable as it sounds. LinkedIn may be scanning thousands of your browser extensions According to findings from the BrowserGate report, LinkedIn allegedly injects hidden JavaScript into its website that scans users’ browsers for installed extensions, over 6,000 of them.…

Some weekends are for comfort, others are for chaos. This one? A bit of both. Whether it’s revisiting a gaming icon that defined an era, diving into a massively upgraded open-world epic, or trying out this generation’s cult classic title set to leave Game Pass soon, this lineup has range. 1. Tomb Raider I-III Remastered There’s something oddly magical about going back to where it all began, and Tomb Raider I-III Remastered absolutely leans into that feeling. This collection bundles the original adventures of Lara Croft with a fresh coat of paint, letting players toggle between classic visuals and modern…

For the last couple of years, Microsoft has been all-in on Copilot. It’s literally everywhere, be it Windows, Edge, Office, or even baked into core workflows where you can’t really ignore it. The messaging has been clear: this is the future of productivity, your AI assistant for getting real work done. And now, suddenly, Microsoft is saying… don’t take it too seriously. Microsoft is walking back Copilot’s “serious use” pitch As reported first by Tom’s Hardware, the Microsoft Copilot Terms of Use state that Copilot is intended for “entertainment purposes only” and shouldn’t be relied on for important or high-stakes…

It’s been just over a month since Samsung unveiled the Galaxy S26 series. As someone who has followed and used Samsung phones for years, this launch felt…familiar. Not bad, just not particularly exciting either. Sure, the Galaxy S26 Ultra brings a few upgrades. The much-talked-about privacy display looks impressive, the battery has seen a slight bump, and the redesigned camera module is definitely easier on the eyes. But beyond these changes, there isn’t much that feels new. Meanwhile, my two-year-old Galaxy S24 Ultra is still holding up perfectly well. It does everything I need without any real compromises. And honestly,…

Remember those moments when a tech giant throws a curveball, only for the underdog to dodge it with style? That’s exactly what just went down with Anything. For those of you unaware, it’s an AI-powered app builder that lets users whip up mobile and web apps using simple text prompts. Last week, Apple yanked the app from the App Store, citing its usual guideline around code execution and keeping apps “self-contained.” The move felt like part of a broader side-eye toward so-called “vibe coding” tools, where building software is starting to feel as casual as texting a friend. Apple pulled…
