Supergiant’s latest Hades II patch is likely its last before launch

Despite it having upward of 61,000 reviews on Steam, Hades II isn’t actually out yet. The sequel to Supergiant Games’ hugely successful roguelite dungeon crawler has been in early access on PC for over a year, and even the early builds were extremely polished and content-rich for what is still a work-in-progress game. But we (and Switch owners) have been waiting patiently for that 1.0 release date, and it looks like it might be just around the corner, with Supergiant confirming that the latest U

Elon Musk Rekindles Trump Criticism, Attacks ‘Big, Beautiful Bill’

The long-simmering feud between President Donald Trump and his former ‘first buddy’ Elon Musk is showing signs of boiling over once more. Following the passing of Trump’s signature “One Big Beautiful Bill” that will offer tax breaks to the wealthy while kicking millions off of Medicaid, Musk publicly supported Senator Rand Paul’s criticism (one of the few Republican ‘no’ votes in the Senate), specifically Paul’s assertion that the bill would ‘explode the deficit. Rand posted on X, “The Big Not-

What the Hell Just Happened to Spider-Gwen?

Marvel Comics is no stranger to a bit of brand synergy and consolidation. The more characters break out into the mainstream beyond the readership of comics, the more their comics counterparts are sanded down and chopped and changed to eventually better accommodate the potential for audiences who are aware of them through adaptation to go to the comics and find familiar fare. This has been especially true as the shadow of the MCU grew ever larger, reshaping characters and realigning destinies the

Trump’s ‘Big Beautiful Bill’ Is Already Hurting Health Care Facilities

The U.S. House made it official Thursday, passing the so-called Big Beautiful Bill in a vote of 218-214. The bill, hailed by President Donald Trump and Speaker Mike Johnson, is projected to strip at least 17 million people of health insurance over the next decade and add $3-4 trillion to the national debt. And while there are plenty of predictions about what the massive cuts to Medicaid will do to hospital systems around the country long term, we won’t have to wait too long to see the impact. Me

Forget Anker, This UGREEN USB-C Charger Block Is Going for Peanuts in Amazon’s Fourth of July Deal

Is an Intel N100 or N150 a better value than a Raspberry Pi?

tl;dr: it depends. About one year ago, I bought an Intel N100 mini PC (specifically the GMKtec N100 NucBox G3) and compared it to the Raspberry Pi 5 8GB. A year later, and we have a newer $159 16GB version of that mini PC with a slightly-faster Intel N150, and a new 16GB Raspberry Pi 5. I re-ran all my benchmarks, and this time compared like-for-like, installing Linux on the Mini PC. Many people argued comparing the OOTB experience running Windows 11 Pro (which came on the Tiny PC) to Raspber

Dyson V11 Origin Vacuum Hits Black Friday Price and Even Cheaper Than Last Prime Day, Stock Running Low

A good vacuum can save you a lot of work. After all, using a rubbish one just means that you’ll end up going over the same spots again and again without ever actually cleaning the floor.

Nobody likes having to vacuum, so you’re better off investing in one that can get the job done really well.

Internet and TV Bundle Prices Are Up This Year. How to Cut Back

EU says it will continue rolling out AI legislation on schedule

The European Union on Friday said it will stick to its timeline for implementing its landmark AI legislation, in response to a concerted effort by over a hundred tech companies to delay the bloc’s AI rules, Reuters reported. Tech companies from across the world, including giants like Alphabet, Meta, Mistral AI and ASML have been urging the European Commission to delay rolling out the AI Act, saying it will hurt Europe’s chances to compete in the fast-evolving AI arena. “I’ve seen, indeed, a lo

The Morning After: Big, Beautiful Fallout

The so-called “Big, Beautiful Bill” has passed with plenty of nasty treats for the US technology and manufacturing industries. As well as swinging the sword at basic environmental protection measures, the bill sticks its thumb in the eye of the EV industry.

Joining that on the bonfire is the used EV incentive, as well as the rebates for the purchase of commercial EVs. Similarly, for all of t
