How to Watch All the ‘Mission: Impossible’ Movies

It's been almost 30 years since Mission: Impossible hit cinemas in 1996 as an adaptation of the 1966 television series of the same name. The Brian De Palma-directed film starring Tom Cruise was a critical success and kickstarted a franchise that remains so successful that MI movies are still being released more than two decades later. When the first movie came out, I was extremely excited to see it and borrowed the VHS tape from a neighbor. Flash-forward to 2000, and I made it my mission to see

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

If you've noticed your TV and internet bills going up recently, you're not alone. Internet and TV bundles increased for the first quarter of 2025, recent JD Power data shows. Though surprisingly, unbundled internet bills saw a slight decrease. Finding ways to cut back on monthly bills can feel nearly impossible, especially when there's a price increase every few months. But it's possible. Here's more on JD Power's findings and what CNET experts recommend to help lower your TV and internet bills

YouTube adds a new Shorts feature that you should probably avoid

Rita El Khoury / Android Authority TL;DR YouTube is rolling out an accessibility-based feature that allows vertical Shorts videos to play in a landscape orientation. The Rotate Shorts option changes UI elements for sideway viewing but shrinks the video so much. This feature is likely intended for users with motor impairments or specific setups like mounted landscape-mode devices. By design, YouTube Shorts, just like Instagram Reels and TikTok videos, are all vertical videos. They’re meant to

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. Tim Stevens takes you on a tour of the most salient changes, like the imminent end of the EV tax credit. 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

Ted Cruz’s Bid to Reclaim Space Shuttle Discovery Could Cost $400 Million

At a time when money is too tight for NASA’s science exploration endeavors, Texas senators are willing to pour millions into a risky process to relocate the Space Shuttle to Houston under the so-called One Big Beautiful Bill. President Donald Trump’s tax and spending bill, which passed the Senate on Tuesday, includes a provision to move the Space Shuttle Discovery from the Smithsonian’s Air and Space Museum in Virginia to Space Center Houston. The Bring the Space Shuttle Home Act was added to t

This Unique Controller Is Cool but Pointless for Most Gamers

Pro-level game controllers have been becoming more mainstream over the past several years, offering gamers a host of new features not found on the controllers that came with their systems. These features include extra mappable buttons, swappable gamepads and other customizability options. However, I don't think I've ever seen a controller that offers two dedicated button layouts within the same device. The Stealth Pivot from Turtle Beach lets you physically rotate the gamepads to reveal a whole

Context Engineering for Agents

Lance Martin TL;DR Agents need context to perform tasks. Context engineering is the art and science of filling the context window with just the right information at each step of an agent’s trajectory. In this post, I group context engineering into a few common strategies seen across many popular agents today. Context Engineering As Andrej Karpathy puts it, LLMs are like a new kind of operating system. The LLM is like the CPU and its context window is like the RAM, serving as the model’s work

Apple reverts China slump, sees first iPhone quarterly growth in two years [report]

For the past two years, Apple has been having a tough time in China. Just recently, the U.S. trade war and local incentives from the Chinese government really got in the way of iPhone sales. However, Apple seems to be regaining control of the situation. A two-year long downturn in China As we covered recently, Apple’s extended rough patch in China may finally be easing. Since Q3 2022, the company has posted year-over-year revenue growth in just one quarter, with declines of up to 13% in the ot

Slate Auto drops ‘under $20,000’ pricing after Trump administration ends federal EV tax credit

Slate Auto, the electric vehicle startup backed by Jeff Bezos, has stopped promoting that its upcoming pickup truck will start “under $20,000” following passage of President Trump’s tax cut bill. The bill, which is expected to be signed into law by Trump on July 4, will cause the federal EV tax credit to end in September — a $7,500 incentive that Slate had counted on to help its all-electric pickup clear that mark. When Slate came out of stealth mode in April, the startup heavily promoted that

Ubuntu 25.10 Raises RISC-V Profile Requirements

Canonical is bullish in promoting Ubuntu for RISC-V devices, be it enthusiast-orientated hardware like DeepComputing’s RISC-V tablet, single-board computers, or embedded equipment. But with a new long-term support (LTS) release looming, it’s rethinking the kind of RISC-V hardware it wants to support going forward. A recent bug report filed against Ubuntu’s upgrading tool confirmed a major change with regards to the RISC-V requirements for the upcoming Ubuntu 25.10 release — most existing RISC-

Caching is an abstraction, not an optimization

June 30, 2025 Caching is an Abstraction, not an Optimization I've always been told that caching is a tool to make software faster. That, given some careful considerations to consistency, caching makes it so that when you want to read a given piece of data, you don't have to go all the way back to some backend database or API server or SSD and can instead just read from some faster location like memory for the same data. Caching is thus a tool to improve performance. My feelings now are that t

Trump Expects Paramount to Run Conservative PSAs Following Hush Money Payments

Paramount is learning the hard way why you don’t simply acquiesce to bullies. Earlier this week, the company came to a preliminary settlement agreement with Donald Trump in a case where the President accused the company of deceptively editing a “60 Minutes” interview with Kamala Harris in 2024. That settlement (which has been described by some as “bribery” with intent to get Trump to green light Paramount’s attempted merger with Skydance Media) pays Trump $16 million. Trump’s legal team also cl
