Google’s streaming dream died in January this year: the Google Stadia streaming service joined a laundry list of projects the company has canned over the years. Google could open a Ben & Jerry’s-style flavor graveyard for them all. We know the streaming platform struggled with market share since its release in 2019, and I never…
There’s no shortage of Lovecraft-themed tabletop RPGs these days, but for my money Trail of Cthulhu stands out from the pack. As I recommended in our list of alternatives to D&D, it combines a classic and exhaustively researched take on the Mythos setting with innovative mechanics designed to make running spooky mysteries a breeze.

The Lies of P Faded Whistle is a mysterious collectible you pick up at the back of the Scrapped Watchman’s arena in Krat City Hall. Bloodborne players might assume it’s like Father Gascoigne’s music box—an item you can play to give you an advantage in the boss fight itself. But actually, the Faded Whistle is…
There is the suggestion going around that the green team is testing out a chiplet version of its top GeForce graphics card for the future Nvidia Blackwell GPU generation. This comes hot on the heels of another rumour stating explicitly that the Blackwell architecture is going to be used for data center silicon, too, and…

Yesterday, the Twitter/X account for KFC Japan posted a short, ominous video of the Colonel overlooking the cliffs of La Noscea with the caption (courtesy of Google translate): “Colonel Sanders is steadily preparing for a new adventure in another world…” Listen, I know Mr….
Why do all spaceships have to be horizontal? Nevermind the practicality or anything like that, I want to explore space in something a little more vertical. A silo, a tower, perhaps. Or maybe even a ship that is just one very, very long ladder a la Snake. As spotted by GamesRadar, one particularly determined Starfield…
Even the smartest of boffins can trip up sometimes, and that’s exactly what happened after a member of Microsoft’s AI research team accidentally exposed 38TB of sensitive internal data after misconfiguring a link. Wiz, a cloud security company that routinely looks for vulnerabilities or exposures of cloud-hosted data detailed the exposure on its blog (via…
For good or ill, artificial intelligence is here to stay. That’s actually underselling it because the AI industry is booming. Just ask Nvidia. Industries across the world are spending billions looking at ways to integrate AI models into their businesses. But while AI has the potential to boost productivity, accelerate innovation and become a useful…
Intel has quietly introduced its first consumer Wi-Fi 7 products; the Wi-Fi 7 BE200 and Wi-Fi 7 BE202. Even though the Wi-Fi standard is yet to be fully ratified by the IEEE until some time in 2024, the first motherboards with the BE200 controller are set to launch very soon, alongside the launch of Intel’s…
