The keyboard that gave us the standardised layout on both sides of the Atlantic, with its quintessential 100% form factor and classic buckling spring mechanical keys (in most instances), is about to have its midlife crisis. In typical fashion, it’s off to buy an expensive convertible. There’s no doubt that the Model M is a…
If you’re new to PCs, you may have wondered at some point why your Windows desktop wallpaper is just so static. After all, since it’s being displayed by the GPU, then surely it could be animated in some way?

An event called Beyond the Strand celebrated the 10th anniversary of Kojima Productions, and has served up new looks at various Kojima projects, including… a credit card?

Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl is heating up today with the arrival of the 1.6 update—out now—which introduces a new anomaly, the fireball, and some nighttime fun in the form of night vision goggles. “Whether you’re a rookie navigating the shadows or a seasoned veteran hunting in the night, these NVGs offer a critical edge…
All things come to an end, though when it’s related to tech, it often seems like the end comes quicker than the lifespan of a hamster. That might feel like it’s the case with a move by Intel to end routine driver updates for all its graphics chips, bar its recent Alchemist and latest Battlemage…
The reasons to get an Xbox Series X have only plummeted for me in the past few years. Xbox Game Pass is just as good on PC as Xbox for the most part, and yet the console is more expensive than it’s ever been. In the last year, Xbox consoles have seen two different price…
It’s been almost six years and one name change, but 2XKO (formerly Project L) finally opened its doors as part of a closed beta earlier this month. If you’ve been one of the unlucky folk begging all your mates for an invite code to no avail, don’t fret: the tag fighter is throwing open the…
