Once that old laptop or printer stops working, you need to get rid of it. However, that can be easier said than done. Throwing it in the trash will only lead to more items that could be recycled slowly deteriorating in a landfill, and depending on the device in question could be illegal. That's probably why a recent CNET survey found that almost a third of US adults still have old, unused electronics hanging around the house. The good news? Recycling your old devices is easier than ever. Major

Meta allegedly suppressed research that suggested kids were exposed to certain dangers when using its VR headsets, according to a report by The Washington Post .

OpenWrt: A Linux OS targeting embedded devices

This frees you from the application selection and configuration provided by the vendor and allows you to customize the device through the use of packages to suit any application.

Ryan Reynolds Fesses Up to Leaking ‘Deadpool’ Test Footage

The big reason we have a Deadpool film trilogy is because of leaked test footage for the first movie back in 2014. It’s since become generally agreed upon that leading man Ryan Reynolds probably had something to do with it, and now the actor himself has gone and said he leaked it, yeah. Talking to Entertainment Weekly at TIFF, Reynolds said the leak may have been “cheating,” but done with the best of intentions. “I think I was onto something that people would be interested in,” he told the outl

Wake Up Dead Man adds a delightfully dark twist to Knives Out

When director Rian Johnson introduced the new Knives Out film on the third day of TIFF 2025, he exclaimed: “we’re going back to church.” By that he meant that Wake Up Dead Man, the latest Benoit Blanc mystery, would harken back to the origins of the whodunit, and in particular the gothic vibes of Edgar Allan Poe. And now that I’ve seen it, I have to say that Johnson pulled it off: the new movie has a darker and more spiritual feel than its predecessors, and yet it’s still distinctly Knives Out,

Godfather of AI Says His Girlfriend Broke Up With Him Using ChatGPT

Geoffrey Hinton, long considered a "godfather of AI" and who won the Nobel Prize in Physics last year, has a complicated relationship with the tech he pioneered at Google many years ago. He's long argued that AI poses an existential risk to humanity, and signed a letter earlier this year calling on OpenAI not to betray its non-profit roots.

Protobuffers Are Wrong (2018)

I’ve spent a good deal of my professional life arguing against using protobuffers. They’re clearly written by amateurs, unbelievably ad-hoc, mired in gotchas, tricky to compile, and solve a problem that nobody but Google really has. If these problems of protobuffers remained quarantined in serialization abstractions, my complaints would end there. But unfortunately, the bad design of protobuffers is so persuasive that these problems manage to leak their way into your code as well. Ad-Hoc and Bu
