So Long, ‘Anthem,’ See Ya In the Skies

In February 2019, Dragon Age and Mass Effect developer BioWare released Anthem, a third-person shooter about human Freelancers donning armored Javelin suits to fight monsters and various factions. After seven years, EA is permanently taking the live-service game down on January 12, 2026, and with it, a chapter in the studio’s modern era is forever gone. To know Anthem is to know its tumultuous life; the game famously suffered from crunch and internal struggles owing to BioWare’s knowledge of se

Google faces EU antitrust complaint over AI Overviews

In Brief A group known as the Independent Publishers Alliance has filed an antitrust complaint with the European Commission over Google’s AI Overviews, according to Reuters.

Inside a Utah desert facility preparing humans for life on Mars

Hidden among the majestic canyons of the Utah desert, about 7 miles from the nearest town, is a small research facility meant to prepare humans for life on Mars. The Mars Society, a nonprofit organization that runs the Mars Desert Research Station, or MDRS, invited CNBC to shadow one of its analog crews on a recent mission. "MDRS is the best analog astronaut environment," said Urban Koi, who served as health and safety officer for Crew 315. "The terrain is extremely similar to the Mars terrain

Wildly Beautiful and Rare "Red Sprite" Flare Seen on Earth From Orbit

Red Sprite NASA astronaut Nichole Ayers, currently stationed on board the International Space Station, shared an incredible image of a sprite — a rare weather phenomenon that's triggered high above the clouds by "intense electrical activity in the thunderstorms below." The image shows the rare electrical discharge in the shape of a starkly red, upended umbrella, hovering high over a brewing storm, like some sort of occult tower from "Lord of the Rings." "Just. Wow," Ayers tweeted. "As we went

Apple is reportedly working on a cheaper MacBook, but will it stick the landing?

This week, we heard some news from analyst Ming-Chi Kuo about Apple entering a new segment of the laptop market. The company is reportedly working on a new MacBook at a lower starting price point than the MacBook Air, and it’ll apparently pack the A18 Pro chip found in iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max. While a cheaper MacBook is certainly a welcome add, the question truly stands: will Apple do it properly, or will it serve as another decoy model? Rumor refresh To quickly recap, the cheaper

Goodbye to All That – My Resignation from the FBI

On May 31 of this year, in a series of phone calls beginning at nine in the morning and ending that afternoon, the newly installed Special Agent in Charge of the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s Norfolk Field Office, Dominique Evans, made clear to me that, at the direction of Dan Bongino, my career with the organization had—for all intents and purposes—come to an end. It would be an understatement to say that I had not expected this. In fact, I was in the midst of preparing for a potential mov

X-Clacks-Overhead

About the Signal X-Clacks-Overhead is a non-standardised HTTP header based upon the fictional work of the late, great, Sir Terry Pratchett. In Terry Pratchett's science-fantasy Discworld series, "The Clacks" is a network infrastructure of Semaphore Towers, that operate in a similar fashion to telegraph - named "Clacks" because of the clicking sound the system makes as signals send. In Sir Terry's novel "Going Postal", the story explains that the inventor of the Clacks - a man named Robert Dea

How to Share Games on Nintendo Switch 2 (Spoiler: It's Easier Than You Think)

If your household has more than one Nintendo Switch 2, you don't have to purchase the same game again and again for every console. Instead, Nintendo offers two ways to share a single copy of a game you've purchased between multiple Switch 2s, using a new feature called Virtual Game Cards. I'll walk you through both. Before we get started however, you may have heard of a feature called GameShare, which is also found on the bottom row of the home screen. I'm not talking about GameShare here. Con

Is It Time to Stop Protecting the Grizzly Bear?

This story originally appeared on Vox and is part of the Climate Desk collaboration. In the early 1900s, long before smartphones and selfie sticks, tourists flocked to Yellowstone National Park—not for the geysers or scenery, but for a grotesque show: a nightly spectacle of grizzly bears raiding cafeteria scraps from open-pit landfills like desperate, starving pirates. The bears were in dangerous proximity to humans: Hungry bears tore at open car windows. Tourists posed a little too close with

Bose Soundlink Plus Review: Compromise Never Sounded So Good

With so many Bluetooth speakers out there, and more arriving almost daily, it can be easy to underestimate one that dwells in the middle ground. Sandwiched between the packable Soundlink Flex and the beefy Soundlink Max (9/10, WIRED Recommends), Bose’s new midsize Soundlink Plus (no, these aren’t streaming services) carves out its own niche thanks largely to winning sound with equal parts nuance and bravado. Like its siblings, the Plus looks and feels like a premium speaker with an accordingly

Log your weight in Apple Health quickly and cheaply with this iPhone-compatible smart scale

After my last WiFi-enabled smart scale broke and refused to connect to the Internet anymore, I sought something simpler and cheaper to replace it.

The Eufy C20 smart scale is what I landed on and I’m very happy with it — and it’s pretty cheap too. Here’s how it works … Firstly, the scale works completely inde

ADXL345 (2024)

The ADXL345 is a MEMS accelerometer made by Analog Devices. It’s a popular device among hobbyists because of its low cost, easy availability and rich feature set. But apparently you should be careful about where you buy them: one of my readers ended up with a bunch of ADXL345s that had significant offsets, measurement axes that didn’t work at all, and an inoperative freefall detection mode. After spending lots of time trying to get them to work, he decided to send them to me instead and hopefull

What Is a Heat Dome? All About the Weather Phenomenon Making Things Hotter
