Seven years later, people still haven’t changed how they use Siri

It’s proving a very long wait for the new Siri, but perhaps it doesn’t matter so much after all. A new survey shows that most people are using Siri and other voice assistants in exactly the same way they did way back in 2018. While some new capabilities have been added, and there are some generational differences in usage, the vast majority of it falls into five rather basic categories … The new Siri is a long time coming After many years of Siri being accused of being the dumbest intelligent

Growing up in the ’90s, serialized heroines were big on the small screen with Xena: Warrior Princess and Buffy the Vampire Slayer—heck, even Sabrina the Teenage Witch. After Netflix’s dark Sabrina reboot and the new Buffy in the works with Sarah Michelle Gellar returning to mentor a new chosen one, all we need now is to see Xena ride again. And that might be on the verge of happening. The cast and creative team behind Xena recently participated in an oral history of the show for Entertainment W

I Tried Inzone's New Gaming Mouse. It Made My Aim Better

During a heated game of Marvel Rivals, my team raids the Asgard throne room. An enemy healer playing Dagger is in the distance, working their way down the stairs to the control point, so my job as Punisher is to pull hard and focus fire on them as soon as possible. My aim tracks their movement and I whittle away their health bar before they can retreat behind a pillar, securing an important elimination to start the fight. I owe my success in that scuffle to the Inzone Mouse-A, a wireless gaming

Dell 14 Premium Review: Hello Old Friend

Dell is facing an uphill battle. It’s relaunching an already divisive laptop design with no significant changes. The new Dell 14 Premium retains the limited ports, touch-button function keys, and the invisible trackpad of its predecessor, none of which were particularly popular. Unfortunately, it doesn’t have the XPS pedigree to lean on. The axing of the XPS name was one of the many casualties in the company’s new, “simplified” brand. So, with a new name and an old design, I've been testing the

The Global Car Reckoning Is Here. Far Too Many Auto Companies Don’t Have a Plan

On a drab, overcast March day in Amsterdam in 2022, Stellantis CEO Carlos Tavares took off his face mask and strode onto a makeshift stage to confidently explain to a crowd of journalists and analysts how the company that had recently unified brands as diverse as Fiat, Peugeot, Maserati, Ram, and Opel was going rewrite the rules of the car industry. His tie sat slightly askew and his greying hair needed a trim, the picture of a man far too focused on applying dynamic capitalistic principles to a

Apple iPhone 17, Air and Pro launch date is rumored for September: Here's everything you need to know

All-In Podcast Boys Poke Fun at Uber Founder’s ‘AI Psychosis’ (Which They Encouraged)

Remember when the guys over at the All-In podcast talked with Uber founder Travis Kalanick about “vibe physics“? Kalanick told viewers that he was on the verge of discovering new kinds of science by pushing his AI chatbots into previously undiscovered territory.

But the gentlemen of All-In now seem to be distancing themselves from Kalanick’s i
