Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2 hits PS5 on August 12

Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2 will be released for PS5 on August 12 . We knew the port was coming this summer , and now we have an actual date. Ninja Theory says the title will be optimized for both the standard-issue PS5 and the more powerful PS5 Pro. This is a real homecoming for the franchise, as Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice was originally released for PS4 back in 2017. That PS5 release date coincides with the cross-platform launch of Senua’s Saga: Hellblade II Enhanced. This version includes a

How to Clean a Beer Glass for Perfect Pours

These bubbles and foam are vital to a proper drinking experience for many reasons, but the primary one is that they are a huge vehicle for aroma (which is itself a huge vehicle for perceived flavor). This is also why brewers nearly always recommend drinking beer out of a glass, rather than a can or bottle: Your sense of smell is a huge part of your sense of taste, and the more you can smell your beer the better it will taste. Many folks (guilty as charged) even have specific beer glasses for spe

Best Internet Providers in Cleveland, Ohio

What is the best internet provider in Cleveland? CNET recommends Spectrum as the best overall internet provider in Cleveland, Ohio. The reasoning for this is because of its overall widespread availability, with a variety of plans that are suitable for those who live alone or for those who have a full household that's in desperate need of speeds. Spectrum also has a great and reasonable pricing to consider, with its 1,000Mbps plan costing just $70 per month. Yet while there is a wide range of i

Apple’s push to take over the dashboard resisted by car makers

Apple is facing resistance from the automotive industry over its CarPlay Ultra software system, which the tech group launched in an attempt to take over a vehicle’s dashboard for the first time. German luxury brands Mercedes-Benz and Audi as well as Volvo Cars, Polestar, and Renault said they had no plans to bring the upgraded software to their vehicles, despite earlier indications from Apple that they would. While few have followed General Motors, which announced in 2023 it would stop install

Google unveils Gemini CLI, an open-source AI tool for terminals

Gemini CLI is a free, open source coding agent that brings AI to your terminal

Some developers prefer to live in the command line interface (CLI), eschewing the flashy graphics and file management features of IDEs. Google's latest AI tool is for those terminal lovers. It's called Gemini CLI, and it shares a lot with Gemini Code Assist, but it works in your terminal environment instead of integrating with an IDE. And perhaps best of all, it's free and open source. Gemini CLI plugs into Gemini 2.5 Pro, Google's most advanced model for coding and simulated reasoning. It can

9 Best Cat Water Fountains, WIRED Tested and Reviewed (2025)

Others We Tested Petkit Eversweet Max for $80: This tech-y automatic fountain can be either cordless or battery-powered (lasting up to 83 days), and the drinking bowl is made of stainless steel, but the reservoir is plastic. Because of the shape of the basin with the chunky battery and reservoir bowl, it’s a little awkward to clean. The app logs every time a pet drinks and compares it over time to determine whether your cat’s drinking habits have changed. The app also keeps track of when the fi

Snake Venom, Urine, and a Quest to Live Forever: Inside a Biohacking Conference Emboldened by MAHA

I have been to the undying convention. I have been pressurized in a hyperbaric oxygen chamber and bathed in flickering gamma-wave light. I have had my electromagnetic field manipulated. I have taken an IV drip of green liquid that looked nearly radioactive. I have been frozen in a cryochamber (and felt amazing afterward) and baked in a one-man, zippable sauna (I didn’t). I have eaten more consecutive meals of beef than ever in my life, grinding unrefined Kalahari desert salt over the slabs of f

Playing First Contact in Eclipse, a 3-Day Sci-Fi Larp

Eclipse is a three-day sci-fi larp set in 2059. Earth has been wracked by environmental disasters, leading to widespread civil war. Humanity’s hopes lie in the Eclipse space programme, established to find a new home using wormhole technology. When the larp begins, all 150 players are in a base on Gliese 628A, one of seven candidate planets for colonisation. The three days take place in real time as the base initiates first contact with aliens. Like Arrival and Interstellar, twin inspirations fo

Bitcoin price rises as Israel-Iran ceasefire begins, and Senate unveils major crypto bill

Crypto prices, including bitcoin , rose on Tuesday after President Trump announced a ceasefire between Iran and Israel. By midday Tuesday, bitcoin had passed the $105,000 level, ether jumped back above the $2,400 mark, and XRP climbed to $2.19. The risk-on action in the markets, which also saw stocks rally on the Mideast de-escalation, wasn't the only source of momentum, as Republican senators unveiled a major bill to set the rules of the road for crypto. Specifically, the legislation would de

Ancient X11 scaling technology

People keep telling me that X11 doesn’t support DPI scaling, or fractional scaling, or multiple monitors, or something. There’s nothing you can do to make it work. I find this surprising. Why doesn’t it work? I figure the best way to find out is try the impossible and see how far we get. I’m just going to draw a two inch circle on the screen. This screen, that screen, any screen, the circle should always be two inches. Perhaps not the most exciting task, but I figure it’s isomorphic to any othe

A nasal spray company wants to make it harder for the FTC to police health claims

In the midst of the covid-19 pandemic, a health products company called Xlear began advertising its saline nasal spray to people desperately searching for ways to protect themselves from a new virus. In its marketing, Xlear pointed to studies that it said supported the idea that ingredients in the spray could block viruses from sticking to the nasal cavity. Based on its interpretation of the science, Xlear promoted the product as one part of a “layered defense” against contracting covid. In 202

Cancer-targeting nanoparticles are moving closer to human trials

In the original production technique, layers with different properties can be laid down by alternately exposing a particle to positively and negatively charged polymers, with extensive purification to remove excess polymer after each application. Each layer can carry therapeutics as well as molecules that help the particles find and enter cancer cells. But the process is time-consuming and would be difficult to scale up. In the new work, the researchers used a microfluidic mixing device that al

Claude catches up to ChatGPT with built-in memory support

AI startup Anthorpic is planning to add a memory feature to Claude in a bid to take on ChatGPT, which has an advanced memory feature. With memory support, Claude can remember past events and reference them in new chats to improve the results. For example, if you specifically instruct Claude that you prefer Python as your favourite programming language, it'll try to show Python-based code output only. Anthorpic hasn't confirmed memory support for Claude, but as some users spotted on X, referen

One of the Most Surprising Moments in ‘Elio’ Feels Right Out of a Horror Movie

Pixar’s latest is a sci-fi gem that homages the genre in a surprisingly dark way. Elio directors Domee Shi and Madeline Sharafian even dip into space horror for one of the film’s most memorable scenes. It was so unexpected for a Disney family film and worked so cleverly in the context of the movie, it left me wanting more of this tone in the future of Pixar films. Early in the film, an Elio clone made by the Comuniverse is sent to Earth so his aunt doesn’t notice the real Elio is gone. The clon

Early US Intel assessment suggests strikes on Iran did not destroy nuclear sites

CNN — The US military strikes on three of Iran’s nuclear facilities last weekend did not destroy the core components of the country’s nuclear program and likely only set it back by months, according to an early US intelligence assessment that was described by four people briefed on it. The assessment, which has not been previously reported, was produced by the Defense Intelligence Agency, the Pentagon’s intelligence arm. It is based on a battle damage assessment conducted by US Central Command
