ProtoArc XKM01 CaseUp Combo Review: A Reliable Portable Workstation

The mouse is perfectly adequate too. It's slim but provides enough palm support that my hand doesn't feel like it's cramping up. The scroll wheel and buttons are smooth and responsive. After a short time, I noticed a strange, squeaky noise coming from the left side whenever I'd click. It's not always there, but it's slightly annoying whenever it comes back. Like the keyboard, it charges via USB-C but has a slightly longer battery life of up to 200 days (standby time). The stand is super adjusta

John David Mercer-USA TODAY Sports On Jan. 20, United States President Donald Trump signed an executive order renaming the “Gulf of Mexico” to “Gulf of America.” Last week, Google Maps officially changed the name of the gulf on its maps, sparking a flurry of memes and conversation on social media, and Mexico is now threatening legal action if they don’t change it back.

Scented products cause indoor air pollution on par with car exhaust

Using scented products indoors changes the chemistry of the air, producing as much air pollution as car exhaust does outside, according to a new study. Researchers say that breathing in these nanosized particles could have serious health implications. When you hear or see the words ‘air pollution,’ you most likely think of things like factories and car exhaust. That’s pollution that is out there – outside your house. But have you thought about how you’re contributing to air pollution inside of

Netflix's content briefly showed up in the Apple TV app

Breaking: Someone made an oopsie.

But that didn't stop users from rejoicing and sharing "FINALLY!" GIFs on social media. Unfortunately, your triumphant festivities weren't warranted, as the company has said it was unintentional. A Netflix spokesperson told The Verge on Friday

Verified Priority Access offers an unspecified number of people the chance to buy either a GeForce RTX 5090 or RTX 5080 Founders Edition graphics card direct from the company. This "opportu

[TUHS] 1972 UNIX V2 "Beta" Resurrected Hi everyone, First-time poster here. Near the end of last year, I did some forensic analysis on the DMR tapes (https://www.tuhs.org/Archive/Applications/Dennis_Tapes) and had some fun playing around with them.

These Are the SpaceX Engineers Already Working Inside the FAA

is a senior editor and founding member of The Verge who covers gadgets, games, and toys. He spent 15 years editing the likes of CNET, Gizmodo, and Engadget.

Man Wakes Up, Finds That Large Chunk of SpaceX Rocket Has Crashed Into His Garden

A Polish man named Adam Borucki made an unusual discovery in his backyard after waking up one day: the purported remains of a second stage of a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket.

Ceramics could be Samsung’s secret to the Galaxy S25 Edge’s slim design

C. Scott Brown / Android Authority TL;DR Samsung is working on a new, extra thin addition to the Galaxy S25 family: the S25 Edge.
