Sony raised PS5 console prices twice in recent months, pushing the Digital Edition to roughly six hundred dollars and the disc model even higher.

For people willing to handle some assembly and software setup, a community project around leftover mining hardware […]
Richard Browning took off from the grassy stretch outside the Eden Project’s famed biomes on a beautiful late March morning, the engines roaring to life as they have every time he has flown one of these. This time, he was demonstrating the Jet Suit at Anthropy UK, a gathering of movers and shakers in Cornwall. […]
Ruins across the Capital Wasteland pick up sunlight and shadow in ways Bethesda’s original fixed lighting never quite managed when Fallout 3 first arrived. A small fan effort has been stitching RTX Remix, ray reconstruction, and neural rendering into Tale of Two Wastelands, the long-running project that drops Fallout 3 and its expansions into the […]
Throaty Mumbo already spent an hour proving a vinyl record can cough up a SEGA game if you are patient enough and a little mean to the format. His follow-up, posted as Can We Port Video Games to VHS?, asks the meaner question. A cassette is linear. A videotape is also linear, except it also […]
Google will send its first AI chips into space next week as the opening flight of Project Suncatcher, a long-term research effort to find out whether machine learning hardware can run in low Earth orbit on solar power. A refrigerator-sized prototype named MVP, built with Planet Labs and carrying four Tensor Processing Units, is booked […]

Nā ʻUhane Māhoe Huki Pū i ke Ola translates to “The Twin Spirits Pulling Together Creating Life,” and Gemini North on Maunakea recorded the pair with enough reach that pink […]
Lenovo rolled Project AeroBlade onto the IFA Berlin floor this week as a ThinkBook-class concept that treats cooling as the last piece of bulk still worth removing. Shown at Innovation World on September 3, the 14-inch machine stays under 10 millimeters thick and under 830 grams, a magnesium-aluminum shell with a high screen-to-body OLED panel, […]
Con Hathy printed a stubby PETG rocket named Spark, loaded an Estes B4, and sent it up a launch rod. Jolly Logic Altimeter 2 data put the flight at 81 feet, 48 mph, and 6.4 G. He then wanted the same motor to do more work by firing it from a closed tube, the same […]
Acer used its next@acer briefing at IFA Berlin 2026 on September 2, 2026, to showcase Project DualPlay Mini, a Predator concept built around one stubborn idea: a Windows gaming handheld that can fold into a miniature laptop without adding a second machine to your bag.
