One of China’s largest chip manufacturers has apparently made plans to build two additional new foundries to the one already under construction. Once all are operational, it’s claimed that the firm’s wafer output will more than double, which could potentially make it one of the world’s largest makers of NAND flash memory chips. The firm…
Stalker 2 gets its first DLC—Cost of Hope—at an indeterminate point later this year, but before the DLC comes the pre-DLC: a free update that bolts on a new scary lab for you to explore, in anticipation of the presumably many scary labs you will encounter in Cost of Hope. The update is called Sealed…
I’ve always been terrible at pool, snooker, billiards, and every other game involving a long stick and green felt. Thus far, though, the consequences of that have been pretty mild—some social ostracisation here, a bit of being laughed at in the pub there, you know.

Alienware, a brand known for high-end and expensive gear, is putting out one of the most reasonably priced QD-OLED gaming monitors I’ve seen in some time, and the specs aren’t too…

But for its newest Intel Z890 offering, Gigabyte has chosen to do things rather differently, and you can thank the serious overclocking crowd…
For a long time, setting up any fresh Windows device would incur the time sink of installing all of the latest updates. Windows 11 has garnered a number of these over the last few years, so there’s no choice but to go find something else to do for about 30 minutes (or more, depending on…
Overwatch’s Antarctic Peninsula is back. No, stop booing, it’s been reworked. We have nothing to worry about now—I think. The rework has been in the oven for quite some time, with the map being removed from rotation back in Season 20, and now it’s back with some pretty substantial changes. “The Antarctica Peninsula has been…
If you’re an avid Hello Kitty Island Adventure player like me, the release of the City Town DLC is bound to cause some excitement. Not only will this expansion of Friendship Island add an entirely new setting for us to make our way around, but a new character will be joining the roster too: Usahana….
Terahertz waves have been an exciting area of research in the past few years because they can be used to examine the internal structures of objects without the risks associated with X-rays. Now one research team has used the tiny waves to peer into the inner workings of transistors while they’re operating, and is exploring…
