I wore the best headphones from Sony, Bose, Apple, and Sonos: Here's how the AirPods Max wins

Jada Jones/ZDNET In the past few years, Bose, Sony, Sonos, and Beats have released premium headphones to compete with each other and Apple's AirPods Max. I've worn all of the AirPods Max's top competitors, and they each excel in different categories. But for an older dog in this fight, the AirPods Max are still kicking. Since their 2020 release (and 2024 re-release), the Max haven't received many significant software or hardware updates, aside from new colors, a USB-C port, and support for los

Dark Rumors Swirl as Boar's Head Plans to Reopen Notoriously Disgusting Meat Processing Plant

futurism.com Unknown 2025-11-28 02:00:43

Over a year after a deadly bacterial outbreak forced a Boar's Head deli meat factory in Virginia to shutter indefinitely, the facility is reportedly set to reopen — but that doesn't mean they've cleaned up their act. Starting in May of last year, a number of people throughout the middle- and eastern-US began falling ill with symptoms eerily similar to the flu. Following several hospitalizations and two deaths traced to the same source, the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) officially launched a

Meta Says Its Comically Large VR Headset Prototype Can Almost Mimic Human Sight

gizmodo.com James Pero 2025-12-01 15:30:02

There are a lot of lofty goals in the world of VR, but delivering hyperrealism is among the most elusive. That’s because there are tons of constraints with a realistic, world-rendering face computer: there’s resolution, field of view, power, weight, battery—you name it. But just because obstacles abound doesn’t mean the titans of XR and VR aren’t trying, and when it comes to the ol’ college try, Meta definitely gets an A for effort. In its latest endeavor, Meta unveiled Tiramisu, a new headset

For the most part, anyone who wants to see what’s going on inside someone else’s brain has to make a tradeoff when it comes to which tools to use. The electroencephalograph (EEG) is cheap and portable, but can’t read much past the outer layers of the brain, while the alternative, functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), is expensive and the size of a room, but can go deeper.

SteelSeries Arctis Nova 3P Review: A Big Upgrade From Budget Gaming Headsets

Voice chatting in games is important; everyone who’s ever played a co-op shooter knows that. And as someone who plays dumb baby games like Fortnite constantly, I can attest. The thing about comms, or more specifically, in-game audio, is that it can be unstable, which is why investing in a gaming headset to minimize hiccups is key. On that front, I’ve been slacking; I’ve been using a terrible gaming headset that looks like a Fisher-Price version of a real one, which has gotten me by with a very b

First offered in a passenger car by Mercedes-Benz back in 1974, the five-cylinder engine has always been a bit of an automotive oddball. The unconventional configuration eventually gained a foothold in the 1980s with manufacturers who needed a transversely mounted motor that was narrower than a V6 but wanted something smoother and more powerful than an inline-four. For a time, the engine, with its distinctive exhaust warble, became closely associated with Audi’s lineup, aided in no small part b
