Everybody Needs to Calm Down About the Switch 2 Screen and ‘Ghosting’

gizmodo.com Kyle Barr 2026-03-09 22:38:36

My aging, stick drift-wracked original Switch was stacked with a library of games I honestly forgot I owned. The Switch 2, with its bigger, brighter display, has breathed new life into this backlog, and it has become my new excuse to revisit Hades and Kentucky Route Zero. A new batch of naysayers claim the screen isn’t worth playing your older 2D titles on due to reported ghosting issues, but the specs are much more complicated than any not-a-tweet post on X may imply. The Switch 2’s 7.9-inch d

gizmodo.com Germain Lussier 2026-03-09 22:45:25

The year 2025 is a big one for both Jaws and Back to the Future. The Steven Spielberg shark classic celebrates its 50th anniversary, while the Robert Zemeckis time travel classic celebrates its 40th anniversary. It’s a big reason why each has been top of mind in recent weeks, and that celebration is carrying right into San Diego Comic-Con. Mattel just announced that two of its exclusives are centered on the iconic films, and both are made by Hot Wheels. The Jaws 50th Anniversary set and Back to

Mortgage Rate Predictions: Is This Week the Calm Before the Storm?

cnet.com See Full Bio 2026-03-09 21:59:00

Tharon Green/CNET Though the housing market is never immune to political and economic volatility, mortgage rates have been eerily calm. Over the last month, the average rate for a 30-year fixed mortgage has moved in a narrow range between 6.8% and 7%. An escalating war in the Middle East could spark fresh volatility across global markets, significantly affecting oil prices and the US dollar. That would have a ripple effect on long-term Treasury yields and mortgage rates. Mortgage rates had be

Meta is pushing back against a ban on WhatsApp from government devices. The chief administrative officer, or CAO, of the U.S. House of Representatives told staffers on Monday that they are not allowed to use Meta's popular messaging app. The CAO cited a lack of transparency about WhatsApp's data privacy and security practices as the reason for the ban, according to a report by Axios that cited an internal email from the government office.

I changed 5 TV settings to significantly reduce my electric bill (and why they work)

zdnet.com Chris Bayer 2026-03-10 02:01:00

Adam Breeden/ZDNET Did you know that a modern TV uses significantly less energy than a TV that's a decade old? Maybe that shouldn't be a surprise, considering how much more power-efficient today's display panels are. According to Perch Energy, the average power consumption of an old TV runs around $54 per year in energy costs. Because LED-backlit TVs and OLEDs consume less power than traditional LCD screens, newer models cost about $32 annually. Also: How to clear your TV cache (and why you sh

Low WiFi in a large house can be quite frustrating, particularly when your ISP router is not powerful enough to cover all parts of it. Instead of relying on an average box that has a tendency of creating dead spots and lagging connections, it is worth investing in a more powerful system from a trusted brand like TP-Link.

The New ‘Weapons’ Trailer Promises ‘a Lot of People Die in a Lot of Really Weird Ways’

So far the marketing for Weapons is looking like 2025’s slightly more accessible answer to last year’s Longlegs: freaky and distressing, and promising exponentially more of the same from the feature itself. A first trailer gave a little more insight into the movie’s plot, and a retro-styled website plays up its true-crime angle. Now Weapons is back with a second clip to set the dread-filled mood even more. We see a bewildered teacher (Julia Garner) being blamed for a class of missing kids, with
