A new report suggests motherboard manufacturers are in a bad state right now, with the memory crisis and the Iran war affecting all kinds of PC hardware. As PC builders are disincentivised from, well, building PCs, the motherboards needed for them also get left behind. The report, from Digitimes, notes a “collapse” for many motherboard…
In all the maddening volatility of the triple-T era (Trump, Tariffs, Trade war) I have been surprised by just how resilient and stable the laptop market has been. At least so far, anyways. Sure, Razer panicked and pulled down pre-orders temporarily for its new Blade laptops because of the Orange One’s fiscal foibles, but it’s…
It looks like another bad day for Roblox: The US Senate Judiciary Committee Subcommittee on Crime and Counterterrorism has launched an investigation into child safety on the platform, saying the company “appears to prioritize revenue and engagement metrics over the safety and well-being of our children.” A letter (via Kotaku) sent to Roblox CEO David…

Everyone’s laughing until someone gets whisked away by a dust devil with a backpack full of food. This is how I imagine Peak’s Mesa Update is going to go when it drops next week. The goofy co-op climbing game will add the mesa biome to the rotation on August 11 along with new items, badges,…
Rory Norris, Guides Writer (Image credit: Future) Last week I was: playing way too much Borderlands 4. This week I’ve been: continuing to play way too much Borderlands 4 while getting to grips with the endgame. By now, it’s beating a dead horse saying that Penetrator Augment ‘crit’ throwing knives are overpowered in Borderlands 4….
