Making your own stickers at home sounds simple enough in theory. You come up with an idea, turn it into a design, print it, and before long, you have something ready to peel and stick. However, anyone who has worked with a traditional Print Then Cut setup knows there are often quite a few tedious steps hiding between that initial spark and the finished product. In reality, a typical workflow might start with designing on one screen, sending the file to a household inkjet printer, moving the printed sheet to a completely separate cutting machine, struggling to get everything aligned,…

Rebel Wolves, developers of The Blood of Dawnwalker, put out a trailer last week showing off console gameplay of their upcoming action role-playing adventure, but the new footage ended up backfiring. The video revealed that PS5 and Xbox Series X versions of the game would not be able to run at 60 frames per second, instead targeting 40, which frustrated many, as 60 frames is considered the standard for action games like this. Today, developer Rebel Wolves issued a new announcement: The Blood of Dawnwalker will run at 60 fps after all, thanks to a day one patch coming to…

We have all seen the warning that AI can make mistakes. For a chatbot, that usually means inventing a fact, misunderstanding a question, or confidently giving you the wrong answer. Put the same technology inside a weapon, and those mistakes can end very differently. A New York Times investigation has detailed a July 6 Russian drone attack in Zaporizhzhia, Ukraine, that killed three civilians, including a 19-year-old university student. Human operators programmed the drone to travel toward a gas station, but an autonomous AI system selected the exact object it would attack, most likely propane tanks. The drone failed to…

For decades, tech has been obsessed with making communication faster. Now, apparently, we’ve had enough. As The New York Times reports, the latest trend is slow tech, with apps like Carrier Pidge and Roost deliberately making messages take minutes, hours or even longer to arrive. Yes, we’re talking about digital carrier pigeons. Carrier Pidge launched in April and recently jumped from a few hundred users to more than 75,000, while Roost reportedly reached 650,000 downloads this month. Apparently, waiting is cool again Carrier Pidge lets you send a message via a digital pigeon whose journey you can track on a…

If Android Pulse showed up in your Play Store updates this weekend and looked a bit suspicious, you’re not alone. Your phone hasn’t been hacked either.  It’s an app from Google that watches for misbehaving or suspicious apps or software on your Android phone. Even more surprising, the app has been sitting on millions of smartphones since March 2026.  So what exactly is Android Pulse? Google’s own explanation, mentioned in the app’s Play Store listing (via 9To5Google), says the system app helps with rule distribution and anomaly detection in system resource consumption by Android (the operating system) and the apps…

The mobile chip race was already crowded. Qualcomm has Snapdragon, Apple has its A-series silicon, MediaTek’s Dimensity chips have become genuine high-end contenders, and Samsung is making another serious push with Exynos. Despite Google’s best efforts, Tensor never really caught up to these chips in raw performance. However, there’s another chip demanding a seat at the table. Xiaomi has officially unveiled the XRing O3, its second-generation flagship smartphone processor, and the numbers being claimed are difficult to ignore. The 3nm chip scored 5,228,014 in AnTuTu V11, while Xiaomi is calling it the fastest smartphone SoC currently available. Independent testing still…
