The best Switch emulator just got a big update, with support for Silksong

Nick Fernandez / Android Authority TL;DR The official stable release 0.0.3 of the Switch emulator Eden is now available. It adds performance updates, driver downloads, UI improvements, and bug fixes. The update also adds support for Hollow Knight: Silksong, which released just yesterday. It’s been just over a month since the Nintendo Switch emulator Eden dropped the release candidate for version 0.0.3, but after a few rounds of revisions, it’s finally ready for a stable release. The Yuzu for

Anti-AI Activist on Day Three of Hunger Strike Outside Anthropic's Headquarters

AI fever might have an iron grip on Fortune 500 CEOs, Wall Street traders, and government officials, but there are still some out their immune to the tech industry's charms. For evidence, look no further than activist and organizer Guido Reichstadter, who's currently running on day three of a hunger strike on the front steps of the headquarters of the AI giant Anthropic. In a statement posted to LessWrong — a forum kickstarted in 2009 by AI critic Eliezer Yudkowsky — Reichstadter explained tha

SQL needed structure

Published 2025-09-04 Here are two pages from the internet movie database: There are two things to note about these pages. The data on the page is presented in a hierarchichal structure. The movie page contains a director, a list of genres, a list of actors, and each actor in the list contains a list of characters they played in the movie. You can't sensibly fit all of this into a single flat structure like a relation. The order of the hierarchy isn't the same on both pages. On one page we hav

Trump’s New Labor Stats Guy is a Jan 6 ‘Bystander’ Accused of Unhinged Posts

President Trump recently fired Erika McEntarfer, the head of the Bureau of Labor Statistics, accusing her of having “rigged” job reports. In her place, Trump has selected E.J. Antoni, a former Heritage Foundation economist who was photographed at the January 6th debacle (but who claims he was just a “bystander” to the chaos) and who, according to reports from CNN and Wired, formerly ran a Twitter account that posted all sorts of gnarly stuff. Earlier this month, Wired reported that a since-dele

Broadcom stock jumps 9% on new $10 billion customer that analysts say is OpenAI

Analysts at Mizuho, Cantor Fitzgerald and KeyBanc all said they think AI startup OpenAI is the customer. The Financial Times reported on Thursday, citing people familiar with the partnership, that the two companies co-designed a chip that will hit the market next year. "One of these prospects released production orders to Broadcom, and we have accordingly characterized them as a qualified customer for XPUs," Tan said.

Top DOJ Official Caught in Catfish Video Claiming Gov Will ‘Redact Every Republican’ From Epstein Files

The scandal over Jeffrey Epstein continues to trouble the Trump administration, and this week, another PR nightmare involving the dead pedophile blew up in the White House’s face. Said PR nightmare came from a surprising source: rightwing provocateur James O’Keefe, who notably made his name with the far-right activist group Project Veritas. In the past, Veritas was known for targeting liberal organizations and Democrats, although, after a series of scandals, it’s no longer active. O’Keefe is st

Noah Hawley Elaborates (a Little) on His Never-Made ‘Star Trek’ Movie

As Star Trek eases out of its TV revival era, winnowing down its number of series to just a handful (Strange New Worlds, the upcoming Starfleet Academy), Paramount has signaled fresh interest in returning the stalwart sci-fi franchise to the big screen. As fans know, it’s been trying to make that move for years now, with stop-and-start progress on a fourth Star Trek movie to continue the “Kelvin timeline” adventures. Among the many creatives to be associated with the project is Noah Hawley, cur

Gizmodo’s Best of IFA 2025 Awards: See the Winners

IFA, short for Internationale Funkausstellung Berlin, meaning “International Radio Exhibition Berlin” because it started in 1924 when radios were the hottest things in tech, doesn’t see as many major gadget announcements as CES. Still, it’s Europe’s largest tech show to close out summer, and this year the show doubled down on the stuff its Messe Berlin convention halls are typically known for: smart home gear and robots. That’s not to say there weren’t the usual new laptops, speakers, and wacky

19 of the Absolute Best Sci-Fi TV Shows on Prime Video

Prime Video has sci-fi TV shows you're looking for. I know that sounds like hyperbole, but stick with me here. You're probably used to finding the must-watch genre shows at places like Netflix, Disney Plus and even Apple TV Plus. Those streaming services are packed with good stuff, but the Amazon-owned streamer should not be slept on. When it comes to programming, each streamer seems to have a specific brand that their shows adhere to. For Prime Video, that vibe is cutting-edge, forward-thinkin

Meta is fixing threads on Threads

Meta is finally fixing how threads work on its social network Threads. Prior to this, there was no real way to know how long a thread was or even if a post was part of a longer discussion. The company has made "several changes that display threaded posts more clearly." These include a new "view more" label that indicates a post is part of a longer thread. This is an easy way to instantly know if someone's thoughts continue past an initial post. Meta There's also a new design element that auto

Amazon greenlights a Life is Strange series adaptation

With Hollywood video game adaptations surging, it was only a matter of time before Life is Strange got the treatment. After all, even platformer and sandbox game adaptations have (shockingly) found success in this new era. A well-written adventure game seems like a much shorter leap. Amazon announced on Friday that Prime Video has ordered a series based on the 2015 game. Like Don't Nod's classic, the series will blend angsty teenage realism with supernatural elements and moral choices. And Amaz

Prehistoric Skull Found Fused to Cave Wall May Have Belonged to Mysterious Ancient Hominid

In 1960, a villager found something terrifyingly creepy in Greece’s Petralona cave—a humanoid cranium with a protrusion on its forehead, fused to the cave wall. Since then, researchers have been trying to date the strange specimen and understand how it got there, but these efforts so far have yielded only a frustratingly broad age range of between around 170,000 and 700,000 years. The skull’s ambiguous stratigraphic position is also less than helpful. So a team of researchers took a slightly di

Type checking is a symptom, not a solution

What if the programming industry’s decades-long obsession with type checking is solving the wrong problem entirely? What if our increasingly sophisticated type systems—from Haskell’s category theory to Rust’s borrow checker—are elaborate workarounds for fundamental architectural mistakes we’ve been making since the beginning? The software industry has convinced itself that type checking is not just useful, but essential. We’ve built entire programming languages around the premise that catching

This Pricey Thermostat Has Nearly Paid for Itself by Saving Me Money, and It's on Sale Right Now

CNET's key takeaways $240 Automated Eco Modes make energy saving easy, even if you don't have time to plan out your schedule. Local utility rebates may also help make the thermostat more affordable.

I ditched Docker for Podman

Beginnings I'm old enough to remember when Vagrant looked like a promised land where every development environment would look the same. Differences between language versions, as well as some unusual OS version differences, resulted in a few days of unproductive debugging of your development environment. I've had similar excitement when I started my first Docker Swarm (who uses that these days?!) - it felt revolutionary. Docker wasn't just a tool - it fundamentally changed how we thought about a

Joe Maring / Android Authority TL;DR Southwest and T-Mobile are rolling out free Wi-Fi on every flight. Anyone with a free Southwest Rapid Rewards account can log on, no matter which wireless carrier they use. The upgrade will reach Southwest’s full fleet of 800+ planes this year. Southwest Airlines is partnering with T-Mobile to provide its travelers with free Wi-Fi during flights. While you might assume this benefit only applies to T-Mobile customers, the scope is broader.

New Study Upends Origin Theory of Mysterious Interstellar Object

Ever since interstellar object 3I/ATLAS streaked into our solar system, astronomers have been scrambling to understand how this likely comet got here—and more importantly, perhaps, where it came from. As only the third interstellar object ever discovered, 3I/ATLAS offers a rare chance to study remnants of solar systems beyond our own, briefly bringing the distant galaxy within reach. But before we get into the new study, imagine the Milky Way as a kind of celestial sandwich: Inside is a thin d

Anker’s New Prime 300W Power Bank Is the Last Portable Battery You’ll Ever Need

Anker showed off a few powerful charging and computer accessories at IFA 2025 this year, and they put out just a wacky amount of power. That’s especially true of the Prime 300W Power Bank and the Prime Docking Station, which features what the company calls “the first triple display charging dock with stable 8K display output.” The Prime 300W Power Bank has enough juice to charge two laptops and a phone at once using its two USB-C and single USB-A ports. Its screen—which was hard to see under th

The Exit 8 movie is even scarier than the game

Greetings from Toronto, Canada! I’m braving long lines and busy streets for the next week or so to attend the Toronto International Film Festival, better known as TIFF, and I’m planning to take you all along with me. Each day I’ll be publishing a dispatch covering my time at the festival, including thoughts on every single movie I watch. As of now, I have more than 20 different features on my schedule so, uh, expect a lot of thoughts. TIFF is historically a nice preview of the fall and holiday
