    ArsTechnica: When graphic design platform-provider Canva bought the Affinity image-editing and publishing apps early last year, we had some major questions about how the companies' priorities and products would mesh. How would Canva serve the users who preferred Affinity's perpetually licensed apps to Adobe's subscription-only software suite? And how would Affinity's strong stance against generative AI be reconciled with Canva's embrace of those technologies. This week, Canva gave us definitive... Read more ›

Now here I am again, because the phone still hasn’t come out. In case you’ve forgotten, the T1 is a very gold mid-range Android […] Read more ›

For a year, on and off, I've been thinking about Dragon Age: The Veilguard. More specifically, I've been thinking about my Dragon Age: The Veilguard review - the five-star review I wrote for Eurogamer. It plagues me. Because to be blunt, I'm not happy with how it sits. I don't think The Veilguard is a five-star game and definitely don't think it's BioWare's best game. To have suggested such a... Read more ›

This could mean trouble for handhelds that rely on tuning to achieve their full potential on Windows, and without AMD's driver to back them up, they might be left high and dry. Read more ›

    Things have never been better for Shopify. The e-commerce firm’s stock is trading near all-time highs. And a recent deal with OpenAI has put Shopify in a position to capitalize on AI-fueled shopping by easily allowing its merchants to sell products through ChatGPT. And yet Shopify is seeing the kind of executive turnover normally associated with companies that are struggling. Read more ›

Microsoft last year got more aggressive about getting people to pay up for artificial intelligence features in its Office productivity suite, such as those that draft emails or summarize documents. It began including AI features by default and raising the baseline price of Office for individual consumers by 30%. The maneuver paid off, as revenue from that business line has been growing at its fastest rate in years. Read more ›

Netflix’s quarterly earnings reports have lately lacked the drama that once made the updates a must-watch for investors and reporters. For the past eight quarters, the video streamer has routinely posted quarterly revenue growth averaging around 15%—hardly hypergrowth but a big improvement on the 2% to 4% growth rate it recorded between late 2022 and late 2023. Nowadays the results are so predictable that it would be easy to tune... Read more ›
