Until now, players have been able to enjoy Assassin’s Creed: Origins on PC with few problems, but the most recent Windows 11 update has thrown a wrench into things. Now players are review bombing Assassin’s Creed: Origins with complaints of crashes, blue screens, freezing, and a lot more. There’s one thing to keep in mind, though: the Windows update is to blame, not the game itself. Origins isn’t the only game affected by the update, either. A user named The Hidden One — appropriate for a subject like Assassin’s Creed — shared the news on X. Recent reviews have a…

Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman wrote in one of his newsletters this month that Apple is working on a new version of the Magic Mouse, and now a Korean leaker has suggested that it will include “voice control.” While Gurman hasn’t heard the same information from any of his sources, he did chime in on X to say he thinks it makes sense “in light of AI” and the fact that Apple likely intends this iteration of the Magic Mouse to have a long life, just like its predecessor. Voice control in the new Magic Mouse I wrote about this month makes…

Smartphone DURABILITY Awards 2024! Zack Nelson of the popular YouTube channel JerryRigEverything has just announced his least — and most — durable phones of 2024. Now, as anyone who’s watched his videos will know, Nelson knows a thing or two about phone durability.

It was just more difficult to find them in theaters, as limited releases or direct-to-streaming debuts seem to be the fate of films that aren’t designed to be huge moneymakers. Regardless, a handful of dramas broke out from the pack and they will likely be remembered as some of the top films of the year. Our picks for the five best drama movies of 2024 include two…

Life on the International Space Station (ISS) is anything but ordinary. The microgravity conditions mean you spend most of your time floating around the place, and the views from the windows are special, to say the least. Popping outside requires donning protective clothing, and going to the bathroom is a more complicated process than back on terra firma. And due to the ISS orbiting Earth at around 17,000 mph, astronauts stationed there witness 16 sunrises and 16 sunsets in every 24-hour period. So how will the current crew — NASA astronauts Suni Williams, Butch Wilmore, Don Pettit, and Nick Hague,…

Given existing tariffs and what’s in store from the Trump administration, you’d be forgiven for thinking the global race toward lower electric vehicle (EV) prices will not reach U.S. shores in 2025. After all, Chinese manufacturers, who sell the least expensive EVs globally, have shelved plans to enter the U.S. market after 100% tariffs were imposed on China-made EVs in September. It’s still noteworthy to know that should Chinese giant BYD sell its most affordable EVs stateside, they would still be the least expensive EVs on the U.S. market, being priced under $25,000, even after the tariff.
