This Action Camera Is Practically Free Compared to GoPro for Amazon Early Prime Day, Stock Is Limited

gizmodo.com Jason Coles 2025-08-22 16:10:50

Whether you’ve got kids, pets, or just friends who are more than a little extroverted, it can be nice to have a really solid action camera. Not every camera can handle capturing action as it happens, let alone when things go underwater or especially quickly. That’s where a good action camera really shines, but they can also be really expensive. They don’t have to be though. See at Amazon Today, you can pick up the Akaso EK7000 Action Camera for just $53. That’s 34% off the usual price of $80,

Disney Just Threw a Punch in a Major AI Fight

wired.com Lauren Goode 2025-08-24 16:46:30

Lauren Goode: Well, speaking of Darth Vader, Disney recently licensed the use of Darth Vader's voice for a chatbot in Fortnite. Everybody knows what Fortnite is, right? And what's interesting about this is this deal ended up causing some backlash from the actors in SAG-AFTRA, which is the union that represents actors and voice actors and stuff like that, where they were arguing that this is an example of AI-generated voices replacing their work, their very human work, without authorization, and

Brad Feld on ‘Give First’ and the art of mentorship (at any age)

techcrunch.com Connie Loizos 2025-08-24 08:31:20

Brad Feld has spent decades operating by a simple principle: Give without expecting anything in return. This philosophy goes beyond traditional pay-it-forward thinking, he says. It’s about helping others, knowing only that meaningful connections and opportunities will emerge organically over time if you do. The entrepreneur and VC, who began angel investing in the 1990s, rose to prominence through his candid blog “Feld Thoughts,” which pulled back the curtain on the then-secretive venture indus

XBOW, an autonomous penetration tester, has reached the top spot on HackerOne

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-08-28 20:53:12

For the first time in bug bounty history, an autonomous penetration tester has reached the top spot on the US leaderboard. Our path to reaching the top ranks on HackerOne began with rigorous benchmarking. Since the early days of XBOW, we understood how crucial it was to measure our progress, and we did that in two stages: First we tested XBOW with existing CTF challenges (from well-known providers like PortSwigger and Pentesterlab), then quickly moved on and built our own unique benchmark that

Unreal Engine 5.6 outperforms 5.4 with up to 30% faster frame rates and improved lighting

Bottom line: Epic's latest version of Unreal Engine is making waves with substantial performance improvements and visual enhancements that address long-standing engine issues. Direct comparisons against Unreal Engine 5.4 show at least a 30-percent increase in performance, especially in CPU-limited scenarios. The findings come from tests by the YouTube channel MxBenchmarkPC (above), which put the Paris tech demo by Scans Factory (below) through its paces. Running on a system equipped with an RTX

The Director of ‘Jaws @ 50’ Explains Why It’s the Ultimate Chronicle of the Classic

gizmodo.com Cheryl Eddy 2025-08-31 08:00:50

Jaws officially turned 50 last week, and it’s easy to imagine that Steven Spielberg’s shark thriller—Hollywood’s first summer blockbuster—will be considered just as much of a classic in 50 more years. National Geographic’s annual “Sharkfest” programming marks the milestone with Jaws @ 50: The Definitive Inside Story, a new documentary from frequent Spielberg collaborator Laurent Bouzereau (Music by John Williams). As fans of cinema history well know, however, Jaws is already a well-documented f

Encounters with Reality on Christine Rosen's the Extinction of Experience

When I was fourteen, my family went on a Caribbean cruise. I have always been allergic to the idea of going somewhere for the explicit purpose of “having a good time.” But that’s exactly what a cruise—at least this particular kind of cruise—is: a never-ending parade of convenient entertainment and diversion. Gorge yourself at breakfast; use the coupon in your welcome bag for a mid-morning massage; have lunch brought to your table at the pool; shop luxury brands on the promenade in the afternoon;

Playdate Season 2 review: Shadowgate PD and CatchaDiablos

Earlier in this Playdate season, I commented in a review that I "love a game that pisses me off a little." Well, I may have shot myself in the foot with that one. Week four of Playdate Season Two brings us not one game that got my blood boiling, but two. CatchaDiablos is a roguelike with a unique movement mechanic that is both pretty cool and absolutely infuriating: running in circles with the crank. Shadowgate PD, on the other hand, is a remade-for-Playdate version of the classic point-and-clic

When Sony Pictures Animation first announced KPop Demon Hunters back in 2021, director, writer, and longtime K-pop devotee Maggie Kang (The Lego Ninjago Movie) envisioned the project as both a love letter to the early days of the genre she grew up with and a vibrant celebration of Korean culture. Teaming up with co-director Chris Appelhans (Wish Dragon), Kang set out to craft a film that merges the dazzling precision of K-pop choreography with the spectacle of magical girl action, all wrapped up

The Circuit Gilles Villeneuve on the Île Notre-Dame in Montreal has long been home to the Canadian Grand Prix. The artificial island was originally built for Expo 67 but was later remodeled for the 1976 Olympics; a race track was then constructed out of the roads on the island in 1978. F1 has come and gone in the US and Mexico in that time, but Canada has been a near-constant, missing just 2009.
