Tim Cook, 15-year CEO of Apple, has just handed the reins over to the company’s hardware engineering senior vice president, John Ternus. In a ‘community letter from Tim‘ to the ‘Apple community’, Cook explains: “Over the coming months I will be transitioning into a new role, leaving the CEO job behind in September and becoming…
Where Unpacking is a game about unravelling someone’s life through moving boxes, A Storied Life: Tabitha is one where you piece together who someone was by boxing up their possessions after they die. It’s a wonderfully thoughtful story, one which leaves some nice wiggle room for me to create my own narrative for who this…
The Playdate is a curious little device. It’s a handheld console with a crank built into the side, which developers can make use of for in-game controls. What devs can’t do anymore, though, is get their games accepted onto the Playdate Catalog store if they use generative AI “for art, audio, music, text, or dialog.”…

Sometimes you just gotta roll with the punches and, credit where it’s due, Ubisoft eventually leaned into the fact that its Assassin’s Creed Black Flag remake became, in the publisher’s own words, “the worst-kept secret in gaming.” The remake’s existence was revealed ahead of time by countless leaks: everything from age rating boards to anonymous…
People have had a problem with how Windows 11’s Task Manager shows CPU usage stats for a long time. While recent discussions have revolved around the idea that the app only bases its reporting on base clocks, Dave Plummer, the creator of the original Task Manager, explains in a recent video how it might actually…
If you’d asked me to guess which hill Capcom would choose to die on when it comes to Street Fighter 6, ‘one where there’s random incest‘ would not have even been in my top 10 guesses. Yet here we are, a month out from the addition of DLC fighter Alex—long-time series staple, first-time incester—who, for…
Getting hit with ransomware is seldom short of a nightmare situation. Finding out the call might just be coming from inside the house definitely kicks both the fear and the frustration up a notch. Three men who had previously worked in the cybersecurity industry have pleaded guilty to conspiring to deploy ransomware. Between April 2023…
