Unfortunately, a tiny app library, sluggish performance and limited software compatibility made... Read more ›

In 1968, IBM — a company that now covers its logo in a rainbow flag each June for Pride Month — fired Conway when she expressed her intention to transition. She died on June 9, 2024 at age 86. IBM eventually apologised to the now-famous computing expert, but only 52 years... Read more ›

Nyobolt achieved the feat at a race track in Bedford, England on Thursday, using its own specially designed... Read more ›
