The Nissan Leaf Is Back and Looking to Make Up Lost Ground

wired.com John Voelcker 2025-09-14 06:00:00

Finally, after 15 years, we have a new 2026 Nissan Leaf coming. As befits the “truckification” of global car markets, it’s no longer a compact hatchback. Now it’s a compact SUV—or, more accurately, a crossover utility vehicle built on passenger-vehicle underpinnings. The new Leaf will offer a range of up to 303 miles, Nissan says, from a 75-kilowatt-hour battery pack powering a 160-kilowatt (214-horsepower) motor that produces 261 pound-feet (354 newton-meters) of torque.

Reverse-engineered PlayStation 1 motherboard runs original chips without emulation

techspot.com Daniel Sims 2025-09-14 13:56:00

Why it matters: Preserving retro games and hardware becomes increasingly difficult as the years pass and essential components grow rarer. Reverse engineering allows modders and repair shops to create substitutes that function identically to the original parts. Now, a new project aims to bring that level of flexibility to the original PlayStation. Italian engineer Lorentio Brodesco recently became the first person to successfully reverse-engineer the original PlayStation's motherboard, creating

Almost a decade ago, a Baptist Biblical scholar, a Catholic priest, several rabbis, an Islamic leader, a Zen Buddhist roshi, and more than a dozen other religious leaders walked into a lab—and took high doses of magic mushrooms. All of them said it was their first time taking the drug. The mind-altering details of these guided trips were recorded at the time and over the following 16 months, but it wasn’t until recently that the results of the controversial experiment came to light.

Obsidian Entertainment has big ambitions for Grounded 2's small world

Obsidian Entertainment has been an incredibly versatile game developer over the years, even venturing outside its RPG comfort zone with the original Grounded. As a survival adventure game where you're shrunken down and explore the hidden, vast world of a backyard, it became a well-loved hit, and it evolved even further throughout its early access period. But now, the developers have big plans for Grounded 2, which has new features and a larger scope that was too big for the original to contain.
