Cursed New Dating App Matches You Based on the Most Deranged Thing We Can Imagine

futurism.com Unknown 2026-04-06 22:09:58

A newly-developed dating app matches potential lovers based on their entire internet browsing histories — and we're not quite sure how we feel about it. As Wired reports, the new service is straightforwardly-named "Browser Dating," and is the brainchild of Belgian artiste provocateur Dries Depoorter. After years creating one-off projects like "Shirt," a top that increases one euro each time it's purchased, Depoorter took a different route with his new app that invites lonely users to upload th

After Julia Dixon graduated from the University of Michigan in 2014, her family and friends asked for her help with the college application process.

Ready to ditch Windows? 'End of 10' makes converting your PC to Linux easier than ever

End of 10 Windows 10, it's almost time to bid you adieu.

They can purchase a new computer, one with enough oomph to run Windows 11 (an expensive proposition in an unstable economy). They can run the risk of using an unsupported OS (not wise in a world that is getting ever more dangerous). They can install

Samsung is trying to figure out why it lost Pixel 10 chip production, but we all know why

TL;DR Samsung is “intensively analyzing” Google’s switch from Samsung to TSMC for Pixel chip production. The move apparently came as a “shock” to Samsung last month. TSMC is generally considered superior to Samsung when it comes to chip manufacturing. Google has used Samsung to manufacture its Tensor smartphone chips since 2021, but the Pixel 10 series is widely tipped to be made by rival manufacturer TSMC.

iPhone 16E Specs vs. Google Pixel 8A: How Apple and Google's Lower-Cost Phones Match Up

If you do want all of Google's flagship features and are comfortable with getting a used or refurbished device, you could check out last year's Pixel 8A which is going for under $300 in the secondary market. Strangely, Google is currently selling the Pixel 8A for the same price as the Pixel 9A, so it doesn't make sense to buy a new version of the Pixel 8A. A sub-$300
