How to Watch All the ‘Mission: Impossible’ Movies

It's been almost 30 years since Mission: Impossible hit cinemas in 1996 as an adaptation of the 1966 television series of the same name. The Brian De Palma-directed film starring Tom Cruise was a critical success and kickstarted a franchise that remains so successful that MI movies are still being released more than two decades later. When the first movie came out, I was extremely excited to see it and borrowed the VHS tape from a neighbor. Flash-forward to 2000, and I made it my mission to see

Internet and TV Bundle Prices Are Up This Year. How to Cut Back

If you've noticed your TV and internet bills going up recently, you're not alone. Internet and TV bundles increased for the first quarter of 2025, recent JD Power data shows. Though surprisingly, unbundled internet bills saw a slight decrease. Finding ways to cut back on monthly bills can feel nearly impossible, especially when there's a price increase every few months. But it's possible. Here's more on JD Power's findings and what CNET experts recommend to help lower your TV and internet bills

This is not a tattoo robot

I walked into Blackdot’s tattoo studio in Austin’s east side on a sweltering May afternoon. After shaking my sweat-soaked hand, founder and CEO Joel Pennington led me up into an office building and opened the door to a small, three-room space. Critics have unflatteringly compared the studio to a sterile hospital room — a comparison not entirely without merit. In a corner room, the machine I had come here to see loomed: a humming, fridge-sized device reminiscent of an old X-ray unit. Blackdot cal

This Is Why Tesla’s Robotaxi Launch Needed Human Babysitters

Whether due to consumer backlash or an aging EV lineup, or both, Tesla sales have again seen a global plunge, this time 13 percent last quarter compared to the previous year—proof that the electric automaker hasn’t yet turned around a dismal year that saw public opinion of controversial CEO Elon Musk plummet. It could mean Tesla faces a second straight year of falling sales. And yet: Tesla is still the world’s most valuable automaker by market capitalization, worth some $990 billion. At least s

Tesla Stans Can’t Believe They’re About to Lose a Boatload of Money on Elon’s Robotaxi Launch

Why anyone believes the things that come out of Elon Musk’s mouth is a mystery. The vaporware king has peddled so many outlandish claims over the years that it’s difficult to keep a tally. Still, for whatever reason, he retains a small but devoted following who think his utterances are prophetic prognostications rather than the creative ideations of a sci-fi fanboy. One of Musk’s recent dubious claims was that Tesla would launch its robotaxi service in Austin, Texas, by June, claiming that the

Experts Say the Actual Value of Tesla's Stock Is a Ticking Time Bomb

If a recent rally in the company's share price is any indication, investors are buying Tesla CEO Elon Musk's vision of leaning into autonomous driving and a robotaxi service. The company's shares rose almost four percent on Wednesday, despite the company revealing that it had sold 14 percent fewer cars in Q2 of this year compared to the same period last year, the biggest drop in Tesla's history. Analysts were forecasting an even worse performance, indicating there's still plenty of enthusiasm.

Police dismantles investment fraud ring stealing €10 million

The Spanish police have dismantled a large-scale investment fraud operation that caused cumulative damages exceeding $11.8 million (€10 million). During simultaneous raids in Barcelona, Madrid, Mallorca, and Alicante, coordinated by the Mossos d’Esquadra, Civil Guard, and the National Police, 21 individuals were arrested. Along with the arrests, the police agents also confiscated seven luxury vehicles and more than $1.5 million €1.3 million in cash and cryptocurrency. The fraudsters appear to

Meta’s “AI superintelligence” effort sounds just like its failed “metaverse”

In a memo to employees earlier this week, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg shared a vision for a near-future in which "personal [AI] superintelligence for everyone" forms "the beginning of a new era for humanity." The newly formed Meta Superintelligence Labs—freshly staffed with multiple high-level acquisitions from OpenAI and other AI companies—will spearhead the development of "our next generation of models to get to the frontier in the next year or so," Zuckerberg wrote. Reading that memo, I couldn'
