Adding a feature because ChatGPT incorrectly thinks it exists

Written by Adrian Holovaty on July 7, 2025 Well, here’s a weird one. At Soundslice, our sheet music scanner digitizes music from photographs, so you can listen, edit and practice.

In the last few months, I started noticing an odd type of upload in our error logs. Instead of images like this... ...we were starting to see images like this: Um, that’s just a screenshot of a Chat

Sony’s got an Xperia 1 VII problem so bad, it had to temporarily halt sales

TL;DR Sony has halted sales and shipments of the Xperia 1 VII in its native Japan. Affected phones spontaneously reset, and may refuse to turn back on. Right now we have no confirmation that there’s any problem with the Xperia 1 VII outside of Japan. For a major electronics company, there’s probably no brand whose smartphones are more of niche product than Sony’s. While we’ve had Xperia phones going back to the early days of Android, Xperia handsets have never really taken off in the US. But

I Loved Using This Keyboard, but There Was One Thing I Just Couldn't Get Used To

Gaming keyboards are everywhere these days, and with a plethora of options available it's not hard to find a good one. They can also be expensive, so it can be difficult to know if the investment is worth the money. It's with that in mind I got in the new the new Vulcan II Mini Air from Turtle Beach. I have some thoughts. Turtle Beach bought the company behind these keyboards, Roccat, several years ago, but it only started phasing out that branding in May of 2024. So you might still find the Ro

Asus Rog Delta II Review: Lots To Offer, but Not Worth the Price

As a more casual gamer, I used to just play games with my computer speakers or sound bar, never bothering with gaming headsets. I would grab a cheap Microsoft or similar knockoff when I played with friends, but that was about it. That all changed when I got my first real gaming headset a couple of years ago. Now, my eyes (or ears, technically) have been opened. The better sound, and being able to hear everything around you including footsteps, really is a game-changer. Asus recently released two

Why Ancient Egypt Smashed Hatshepsut’s Statues After Her Death

Hatshepsut is one of the most famous figures in ancient Egypt. In 1479 BCE, she took on the role of regent on behalf of her young nephew Thutmose III.
