Third-person action-shooters have been around a long time, so it’s relatively rare that we see a wealth of new ideas at play. Pragmata’s greatest feat is successfully introducing a twist on the form, integrating two distinct mechanics – hacking and shooting – that run simultaneously in the midst of a fight. While Capcom’s long-awaited action game has some other problems, that single innovation keeps things interesting, even while some of the surrounding game treads familiar ground.Hugh is a specialist sent to a corporate moonbase where 3D-printed environments, bots, and other objects are researched and built at the direction of a…
The eufy C10 is down to $219.99 in a limited-time deal, a $260 saving off its $479.99 list price and more than half price for a self-emptying robot vacuum with LiDAR navigation and 8 weeks of hands-free operation. For a vacuum that genuinely removes itself from your to-do list, the timing and the price are both right. What you’re getting The self-emptying base is the feature that separates the eufy C10 from budget robot vacuums that still require daily attention. Up to 8 weeks between empties means the C10 runs its cleaning schedules and handles its own waste disposal without…

Android may be getting a simpler way to move files between phones. A newly surfaced interface shows Google working on a sharing feature that appears built for quick transfers of contacts, photos, videos, links, location data, and other content by bringing two devices together. It looks like one of the clearest signs yet that Google wants a more physical, AirDrop-style handoff on Android. What makes the reveal interesting is how specific the flow already looks. The screens suggest both phones need to be unlocked, facing up, and aligned near the top before the transfer begins. That gives the feature a…
A fresh 3C filing offers the clearest early look yet at Motorola’s Razr 70 Ultra, and the most useful detail is also the most practical. The listing points to 68W wired charging, which lines up with the current model instead of hinting at a bigger leap. Foldables are usually judged less by one flashy spec and more by how well the whole package works day to day. Charging speed, battery life, and heat all shape that experience. If this leak holds up, Motorola seems to be sticking with a setup it already trusts. The filing ties the phone to model…
Retirement is often imagined as a period of freedom, where time can be spent on hobbies, relationships, and personal growth. However, a growing number of retirees are finding that much of this newfound time is quietly consumed by smartphones and social media, creating a different kind of challenge in post-work life. A recent feature by The Wall Street Journal highlights how retirees, despite good intentions, are struggling to manage their screen time. Without the structure of a job or daily responsibilities, many are slipping into habits of excessive scrolling, often losing hours without realizing it. When Free Time Turns Into…
After releasing its Claude extension for Microsoft Excel and PowerPoint, Anthropic has finally released Claude for Microsoft word, and it looks genuinely impressive. Anthropic says it is “designed for professionals who work extensively with documents, particularly in legal review, financial memo drafting, and iterative editing.” In other words, the people who spend half their day buried inside lengthy contracts and memos can now benefit from Claude’s superior AI capabilities. So, what can it do? It can do a lot, as it turns out. You can ask Claude questions about your document and get answers with clickable citations that jump straight…
Copy editor Morgan Dreiss has severe ADHD and says they need to always be doing at least three things at once. The result is an average daily screen time of 18 hours and 55 minutes. According to a recent WIRED report, Dreiss is far from alone. For years, studies have warned about the effects of excessive screen time on our physical and mental health. Yet a growing number of people are pushing back on that narrative. Call them screenmaxxers. They are not trying to rack up hours on purpose, but they are on their screens pretty much all day, and…
Apple is finally stepping into the smart glasses space. For this, the company is asking an important question: Would you actually wear these outside? This is the most important thing, because this is where most smart glasses have historically fallen apart. Rather than locking itself into a single, safe design, Apple is reportedly exploring multiple frame styles for its first pair of AI glasses. And not minor tweaks either — we’re talking distinctly different silhouettes. There’s a bold, chunky rectangular option that leans into classic sunglasses territory. Then a slimmer, more understated rectangular design that feels a bit more executive-core.…
