‘Predator 2’ Walked So the New Films Could Run

After 'Predator: Killer of Killers,' we decided to give the Danny Glover 1990 sequel a spin and were pleasantly surprised. Predator 2 is a very weird movie. As a concept, you totally understand why it exists. It’s a 1990 sequel to the 1987 hit starring Arnold Schwarzenegger, taking the titular character into a completely new location and pitting him against a new high-profile, macho movie star. Schwarzenegger was in the jungles of Central America, and Danny Glover is in the concrete jungles of

Trump Mobile is a bad deal

is The Verge’s executive editor. He has covered tech, policy, and online creators for over a decade. Trump Mobile launched this morning with a single prepaid wireless plan and the promise of nationwide coverage for $47.45 per month. For that price, you get unlimited talk and texting, international calling, plus 20GB of “high-speed” cell and hotspot data, which a customer support representative told me is 5G.

The best Nintendo Switch 2 accessories for 2025

The Switch 2 Pro controller is the best controller Nintendo has ever made – and that’s saying something. It’s incredibly comfortable to hold, its joysticks are buttery smooth, and all of its buttons are wonderfully responsive. Nintendo even made it customizable this time with rear buttons that can easily be mapped inside of any game. The only downside? The Switch 2 Pro Controller costs $85, which seems a bit egregious when you can get an excellent controller like 8BitDo’s Ultimate 2 wireless ga

It gives me no pleasure to introduce to you all: the Trump phone. 🚨BREAKING: The Trump family is LAUCHING a "Trump Phone" the phones will be made in the USA 🇺🇸 Mobile plans will

This is the first X-E series camera with IBIS, which Fujifilm says will gain you about 7 stops of handholding. The new sensor also means video specs jump to 6.2K at 30 frames per second (with a 1.2

The Trump Mobile T1 Phone looks both bad and impossible

Here is a roughly complete list of all the things we know for sure about the first phone made for the new Trump Mobile wireless provider: it’s called the T1 Phone 8002 (gold version). It costs $499, and you can reserve one now with a $100 down payment. It is, according to the website, coming in September. That’s about all I feel confident saying. Beyond that, all we have is a website that was clearly put together quickly and somewhat sloppily, a promise that the phone is “designed and built in

Starlink vs. T-Mobile 5G Home Internet: Battle of the Broadband Disruptors

So, what makes Starlink and T-Mobile 5G Home Internet the biggest names in rural broadband? One word: Availability. Both providers offer solid options for rural communities. While Starlink has effectively revolutionized satellite internet with its fleet of low Earth orbit satellites and has reportedly doubled its speeds compared to two years ago. We would still recommend T-Mobile 5G Home Internet. Not only is it a crowd-pleaser, but it's also often favored in customer satisfaction surveys. Acco
