I've read a lot of horror books over the last two years. But my absolute favorite is easily Mariana Enriquez' Our Share of Night. The book was originally published in 2019 in Argentina, but it only got an English translation in 2023. While it doesn't quite reach Stephen King lengths, at nearly 600 pages, I'd […] Read more ›

By the time I arrived, the waterfront park in downtown Portland, Oregon was already awash with people as far as the eye could see. The No Kings protest in June had turned out around 10,000 people across the city; this one saw several times that number just downtown, with thousands more choosing to join localized […] Read more ›

Saturday marked the biggest day of protest since the start of Donald Trumps’ second term.

Indivisible, the group behind the protests, claims that there were over 2,700 […] Read more ›

To understand the Sony Watchman, you have to go back. Way back. Back to when "TV" wasn't just a way to refer to any piece of content between 20 and 89 minutes, available on every screen everywhere for a few bucks a month. In 1982, when Sony first started selling its new device, "TV" was […] Read more ›

The trick to understanding Opera's Neon browser is recognizing that it's not just a browser with an AI bot added to it, but a browser with three AI bots all living side by side. This is both a strength and a weakness, because while you don't have to leave to do all the AI things […] Read more ›

In the 2000s, TiVo reached heights few companies ever achieve. Like Google and Xerox, its name became a verb. People had to "TiVo" the new episode of Battlestar Galactica or game 4 of the Red Sox vs. Cardinals, not "record" it. While it didn't invent the DVR, TiVo popularized it and many of the features […] Read more ›

Pokémon Legends: Z-A hadn't been out even a few hours before the tweets started rolling in: Shiny pokémon don't despawn. You can walk away from a shiny, and it'll still be there when you come back. To shiny collectors, this is big news. In other Pokémon games, like Scarlet and Violet, pokémon despawn after you […] Read more ›

I have been a fan of David Lynch ever since a friend's older brother interrupted a 13th birthday celebration to insist we all watch Eraserhead. In the realm of horror movies, it's a common way to be introduced to a seminal film: be it in a friend's basement, illicit underage viewings, or a stray recommendation […] Read more ›

Outside a florist-cum-coffee shop in upstate New York, a row of vintage cars gleam in the sun. It's unseasonably warm for early October, so there's a veritable crowd of car enthusiasts snapping photos of Ferraris, Porsches, and a vintage Alfa Romeo. Patient girlfriends and wives roll their eyes, sipping on maple matcha lattes and eating […] Read more ›

Inside General Motors' fast-growing battery labs in suburban Detroit, scientists and engineers are analyzing stresses on lithium-ion cells: desert heat, arctic cold, jungle humidity, enough charging and discharging for a half-dozen Frankenstein reboots. For The Verge's exclusive tour of these secretive labs, I watch researchers peer at cell chemistries down to the atomistic level, using […] Read more ›

Meta has rolled out an opt-in AI feature to its US and Canadian Facebook users that claims to make their photos and videos more “shareworthy.” The only catch is that the feature is designed for your phone’s camera roll — not the media you’ve already uploaded to Facebook. If you opt in, Meta’s AI will […] Read more ›

Some of us take a kind of “I eat to live” rather than an “I live to eat” approach to gadgets. They’re tools that help you get things done, not something you want to invest a lot of time or money in. If that’s you — and there’s no judgment here from a certifiable gadget […] Read more ›

The Department of Energy (DOE) released a new roadmap for the US to realize the decades-long dream of harnessing fusion energy. It’s a commitment to support research and development efforts and pursue public-private partnerships to finally build the first generation of fusion power plants. And of course, the plan hypes up AI as both a […] Read more ›

Modern gadgets are all well and good, but sometimes things get more exciting when you enter the realm of fantasy. And the worlds of gaming, TV, and film often feature extremely cool gadgets that we just wish were real, whether it’s an impossible VR headset or a smartphone powered by a ghost. So, every so […] Read more ›

Though the Pokémon games' Rotom Phones haven't really changed all that much design-wise over the past few years, each generation has introduced new functionalities that made upgrading a no-brainer. Sword / Shield's Rotom Phone - the very first one - came with a bare-bones camera that made it easy to snap wide-angle (screen)shots out in […] Read more ›
