Table of Contents Table of Contents The GPU shortage is back Mainstream GPUs may share the same fate Nvidia had to step in We have to be patient As a huge GPU enthusiast, a new launch is basically a party for me — and it’s a party that often lasts for months. With both Nvidia and AMD staggering their product releases, there’s plenty to get excited for as new models keep getting added to our ranking of the best graphics cards every few weeks. This time, the excitement is only true on paper. In fact, I’m beginning to feel disappointed.…

The bombshell news that Amazon MGM have now taken over creative control of the James Bond franchise has led to plenty of concerns about what that means for Bond’s future.

The changes to the design weren’t exactly unexpected, and through a series of leaks over the several past months, we were persistently reminded of the overhaul the iPhone SE…
Tony Hawk Pro Skater fans have longed for a remaster of the third and fourth games ever since the success of the first two, but hopes were dashed in 2022 when the game was supposedly canceled — but now a countdown has appeared on the website that ends on March 4.

The text “thps-3-4-countdown” was reportedly found in the website’s backend code, but has since been removed according to VGC. The website lists Iron Galaxy as one of…
In a franchise with as many moving pieces as Star Wars, it’s perhaps not a huge surprise that many of the projects set in this universe churn through quite a few writers. When a spin-off movie focused on Daisy Ridley’s Rey was first announced, Damon Lindelof and Justin Britt-Gibson were brought in as the film’s writers. They left the project in March of 2023, and Peaky Blinders creator Steven Knight was brought in after them. Knight left the project in October of 2024, but before that, he spoke with The Telegraph about the film, and what it’s like to be part of the massive machine…
The action movie Extraction and its sequel, Extraction 2, both did extremely well for Netflix when they were released in 2020 and 2023, respectively.

Table of Contents Table of Contents How far can the damages go? This is not a fix for Meta’s problem A fundamentally problematic solution A month ago, Meta said it was ending its third-party fact-checking program, and said that it would rely on users to flag misinformation.

The requirements for being a community notes writer is that you must be a US citizen over 18 years of age, have a verified phone number, and an account that…
It seems that Earth isn’t likely to be struck by an incoming asteroid after all, as scientists have revised the impact likelihood of object 2024 YR4. The asteroid which has a length of around 130 to 300 feet was spotted at the end of last year, and was originally projected to have a 1% chance of hitting the Earth in 2032. That probability went as high as 2.8%, but has now dropped considerably given new data.
