‘007 First Light’ Exists Thanks to Daniel Craig and ‘Hitman’

Just yesterday, IO Interactive revealed its first gameplay from its James Bond game, 007 First Light. While it’s set in its own continuity, it’ll still have some ties to the films and books—in fact, those ties are how IO got the reins of Bond in the first place. Press like IGN got to visit the studio prior to the recent unveiling, and it was there game director Hakan Abrak revealed part of IO’s pitch for the game was sculpting Daniel Craig’s face onto Agent 47, the star of its stealth-action fr

The new Street Fighter movie lands in theaters next October

The new Street Fighter movie has been given a release date of October 16, 2026. Kitao Sakurai is directing the project and a few generic plot details have been disclosed. The story will be set in 1993, a nod to the year Street Fighter II was released in arcades, and will have familiar characters from the game uncovering "a deadly conspiracy" in the midst of all their street fighting. It seems safe to expect a fair bit of camp in a Street Fighter project, and that bears out in some of the castin

Got a great browser interoperability idea? Apple wants to hear from you

Entries are now open for Interop 2026, a yearly effort where anyone, from users to web developers, can submit their best ideas to improve cross-browser interoperability. Here’s how to participate. Interop started in 2022, when Apple, Bocoup, Google, Italia, Microsoft, and Mozilla came together “to commit to improve interoperability in 15 key areas that will have the most impact on web developer experience.” The project, which stemmed from Google’s Compat initiative, gained enough traction to b

Action was the best 8-bit programming language

There were many programming languages available for 8-bit computers, the most common being BASIC and Assembly Language, but there were also other lesser-used languages such as Logo, Forth, and Pilot. The languages that would go on to dominate 16-bit computing, C and Pascal, were also available but were usually severely limited. An 8-bit computer generally did not have enough horsepower to run those more complex language compilers. By 1983 Optimized Systems Software (OSS) was renown in the Atari

TED leader’s $300M ‘valley of death’ fund might be just what later-stage climate tech needs

Like many startups, climate tech companies often face a “valley of death” that lies between early stage funding and growth capital that helps proven technologies reach commercial scale. But because climate tech startups are often hardware focused — physical problems tend to require physical solutions, after all — this valley of death tends to be a lot wider. Financing a first-of-a-kind power plant or factory can cost tens or hundreds of millions of dollars. Now, a new fund hopes to bridge this

AI logistics startup Augment, from Deliverr’s founder, raises massive $85M Series A

Having built and sold e-commerce shipping startup Deliverr to Shopify for $2.1 billion in 2022, co-founder and CEO Harish Abbott knows the logistics industry well. Abbott felt that many manual tasks in logistics could be automated using AI. That’s why last year he launched Augment which offers an AI assistant called ‘Augie’ that can take over tedious and repetitive work performed by freight shippers, carriers and brokers. On Thursday, Augment announced that it raised an $85 million Series A le

Anyone can now download Tesla's iOS Robotaxi app, but there's still a waitlist

Tesla has made its iOS Robotaxi app available for all iPhone users to download as it expands service beyond a group of early access users for the first time. Beyond the current lack of an Android app (Tesla says one is on the way), there are a couple of things to bear in mind here. The company's proper robotaxis are currently only available in Austin, Texas. There's also a waitlist, so you won't be able to book a ride immediately. That said, it might not take folks on the waitlist too long to g

Google deletes net-zero pledge from sustainability website

Pichai added that he knew the “road ahead would not be easy,” but Google “aimed to prove that a carbon-free future is both possible and achievable fast enough to prevent the most dangerous impacts of climate change.” “Today, I’m proud to announce that we intend to be the first major company to operate carbon free — 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year,” he said, in a video announcement . Google’s CEO Sundar Pichai stood smiling in a leafy-green California garden in September 2020

‘The Black Phone 2’ Trailer Sees Ethan Hawke Call Collect Supernatural Vengeance

Universal Pictures and Blumhouse just released a new trailer for the sequel to Ethan Hawke’s terrifying horror film, Black Phone 2. The short story that the original movie is based on, written by Joe Hill (son of Stephen King), follows a masked serial killer who abducts children, locks them in his basement, and torments them. That is until one kid, Finney (Mason Thames), uses a black rotary phone to speak to the ghosts of The Grabber’s victims and hatches a plan to escape, kill the Grabber, and

I tested the Abxylute One Pro, and it nails game streaming (with a catch)

Abxylute One Pro If you want to stream games without tinkering with settings or dealing with Android jank, the Abxylute One Pro is a great pick. But if you want a little more, you can get better performance for the price. If you had asked me six years ago, I would have told you that game streaming was the future of gaming. Now that Stadia is dead and Xbox Cloud Gaming hasn’t made any significant improvements in years, the world seems to have shifted focus to gaming handhelds. But there’s a uni

Hollow Knight: Silksong fans have brought down the eShop, Steam and Xbox Store

Hollow Knight: Silksong is officially available for purchase, after six long years of waiting. The anticipation is at a fever pitch. Fans have swarmed to Steam to purchase the game and, well, it looks like they overloaded the system and shut it down. The same thing seems to be happening to the Nintendo eShop and the Xbox Store. Multiple social media users and data from services like DownDetector are noting that the service is down for many people, with a massive spike in reports pretty much the

Samsung Galaxy Tab S11 Series and Galaxy S25 FE: Specs, Features, Price

Google may have given up on making Android tablets, but Samsung is putting along. Last week, Samsung announced a budget slate—the Galaxy Tab S10 Lite—but now it's time for flagship tablets. At IFA 2025, the tech exhibition in Berlin, the company announced the next-gen Galaxy Tab S11 series, comprising the Tab S11 and the Tab S11 Ultra. Also in tow is the Galaxy S25 FE (Fan Edition), a midrange Android phone that marks the fifth entry in the Galaxy S25 series. The Galaxy Tab S11 costs $800, whil

Samsung announces incredibly thin Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra and a smaller Tab S11

C. Scott Brown / Android Authority TL;DR Samsung has unveiled the Galaxy Tab S11 and the Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra. The Galaxy Tab S11 replaces the Plus model in a more compact form but with similar power to the Ultra. The Ultra has a massive 14.6-inch display and is both thinner and lighter than last year’s model. Samsung is refreshing its flagship Android tablet lineup today with the introduction of the new Galaxy Tab S11 and Tab S11 Ultra. These tablets come with incremental changes over the p

Samsung’s new DeX drops desktop UI on tablets, and not everyone will be happy

C. Scott Brown / Android Authority TL;DR In One UI 8, Samsung DeX no longer offers the full desktop interface on tablets unless connected to an external display. The updated version improves ease of switching between regular Android and DeX mode without closing apps. When using the standalone tablet view, traditional navigation buttons and quick settings are absent, resulting in a less mouse-friendly experience. Android 16 introduced Google’s take on a Desktop Mode for Android, and the new v

Samsung DeX finally gets multi-monitor support on the Galaxy Tab S11

C. Scott Brown / Android Authority TL;DR Samsung is rolling out multi-monitor support in Samsung DeX, starting with the Galaxy Tab S11 and One UI 8. Extended Mode allows dragging apps and files between your monitor and tablet display. Launching with the Tab S11, this will reach older Samsung tablets with the One UI 8 update. Samsung DeX is one of the best desktop modes on mobile and has been a useful tool since it was introduced on the Galaxy S8. Samsung overhauled DeX in One UI 8, basing it

Galaxy Tab S11 revives 11-inch size as S Pen ditches Bluetooth, copies iPad placement

Samsung’s new Galaxy Tab S11 has arrived with updated specs, the return of an 11-inch size, and some big S Pen changes. The Galaxy Tab S11 series will feel pretty similar to anyone who has seen the past few generations. This year, we’re getting the usual 14.6-inch monster, the Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra, alongside the return of a smaller 11-inch Galaxy Tab S11 that was missing from last year’s lineup. There’s no 12.4-inch “Plus” model this time around, though. Under the hood, these tablets are power

Samsung Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra hands-on: Really thin, redesigned S Pen and... remember Dex?

Someone recently asked me: Who even cares about Android tablets anymore? If that's you, you're probably feeling the same indifference towards premium Android tablets. Even Google has conceded it won’t be making new tablets and seems to have already forgotten about the Pixel Tablet. But that’s not stopping Samsung from releasing the 11th-generation Galaxy Tab S11 series, comprising the 11-inch standard model and 14.6-inch Ultra. The latter is the more interesting of the pair, as it’s not only wha
