Here’s How to Watch All of the Jurassic Park and Jurassic World Movies in Order

cnet.com See Full Bio 2025-08-15 05:00:00

I first saw Jurassic Park one fateful day during middle school when my teacher rolled in a cart topped with a CRT television, popped in a VHS tape and pressed play. I was instantly hooked and I've since watched the film countless times, including on a 2013 trip to see it in 3D on the big screen at my AMC theater. Jurassic World: Rebirth hit cinemas on July 2, and I've been rewatching the entire series to get in the mood. With run times ranging from 1 hour and 32 minutes for Jurassic Park III to

Whatever the cause of cognitive overload, a personal intelligence can help In my grad-school dorm there were four blind students, and they all coped in different ways. Most impressive was Jeff, whose wealthy family was able to provide him with key support technology, notably a talking computer (a bigger deal back then) and a guide dog (still a big deal today). Augmented with such technology, he did pretty well, and in some ways better than the rest of us—a golden labrador is a great tool for ma

This $10 watch band made my Galaxy Watch 8 Classic so much better

Joe Maring / Android Authority I’ve been wearing the Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 Classic for a little over two weeks (my review is coming soon), and my experience with the smartwatch has been great so far. The Watch 8 Classic looks fantastic, it’s loaded to the brim with health features, and the rotating bezel is oh-so-good.

AI Designs Super Safe Sub for Billionaires to Ride Into the Depths of the Ocean

futurism.com Unknown 2025-08-17 12:45:47

Billionaires have, for a few years now, been insisting that artificial intelligence is clever enough to take huge swaths of jobs while curing disease and solving the energy crisis. As such, we presume that the loudest among them will be first in line to test out a super-safe submersible created by AI to avoid the sort of snafus that resulted in the Titan sub's tragic implosion, which killed its creator and his four well-heeled friends while they were exploring the wreckage of another downed ves

Android 16’s support for external keyboards blew my mind

Rita El Khoury / Android Authority It’s been years since I last tried to pair a Bluetooth or USB keyboard with my Android phone. After being a physical QWERTY proponent for years and hating on touchscreen typing, I wholly but slowly embraced pecking on a glass surface. There were a few times I wished I had a keyboard for my Android tablets, but it wasn’t frequent enough to make me pay for one. That changed a few weeks ago when I started testing the Clicks Keyboard with my Pixel 9 Pro, which is

Quantum Computers Are Here and They’re Real. You Just Haven’t Noticed Yet

gizmodo.com Gayoung Lee 2025-08-17 13:00:22

The promise of quantum computers appears to be that they will upend modern computing as we know it. With exceptional computational power, they’ll be performing feats unimaginable for any classical supercomputer. The reality of quantum computers hasn’t quite lived up to its hype, however. Claims of “quantum advantage”—problems regular computers can’t solve but quantum computers can—draw criticism from both skeptics and enthusiasts in the field.

The Song of the Summer Is Dead

Devon Powers says there is one significant data point no one has considered in the debate around 2025’s Song of the Summer, or rather, why there doesn’t really seem to be one this year: Donald Trump. As media has become less centralized—music streamers replaced radio stations, TikTok killed the music video, and so on—how people consume music, and who they listen to, has become even more fragmented. But today, Trump represents a reawakened avatar of cultural togetherness. He may be the closest t

Jeff Buckley captivated an audience of generations with his transcendent voice and soaring guitar. After his untimely passing in 1997 at age 30, he gained posthumous, cult-like status.
