DOGE Has Wasted Billions While Saving Only a Fraction of What It Claims: Reports

gizmodo.com Lucas Ropek 2025-11-26 11:15:21

The Trump Administration’s Department of Government Efficiency has been a project largely defined by ever-diminishing expectations. At the outset of DOGE’s journey, its chief operator, Elon Musk, famously claimed, in a bout of wild optimism, that he hoped to cut “at least” $2 trillion out of the federal budget. Not long after the election, Musk reduced his ambitions to $1 trillion. Throughout the first few months of Trump’s second term, DOGE claimed to be saving Americans billions, but analyses

Real-world Pixel 10 dummy photos offer hope that Google may not ditch this feature

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-11-26 16:06:33

TL;DR Real-world images of what appears to be a dummy unit of the Pixel 10 have surfaced. The images suggest that Google may not have completely ditched the physical SIM tray. A week from today, we’ll be watching Google’s Pixel launch event. At this point, we’ve seen more than enough renders of the Pixel 10 family, so we have a pretty good idea what we’re in for. But if you’re looking for something a little more tangible than renders, some real-world images have recently surfaced online. Don’

I chose OCaml as my primary language

It has become my preferred choice for almost all my personal projects, and it has also influenced my professional choices. Since 2014, I have been actively participating in public conferences dedicated to programming and software development, where I often express my enthusiasm for OCaml in ways that may be a bit over the top (but always passionate).

This Modular Switch 2 Case Will Help Your Battery Last Longer Than a Few Measly Hours

gizmodo.com Kyle Barr 2025-11-26 16:06:32

2025 Even if you’ve been enjoying your Nintendo Switch 2, you can’t play it for that long without being near its dock or a charger. Battery life is one of the major downsides to Nintendo’s handheld, even more so than the original Switch. I’ve tried a few remedies for this power pain point, including Viture’s AR glasses dock that’s pretty bulky if you want to take it on the go. Then came along Genki with its $50 Attack Vector, a grip case packed with a unique feature that can easily let me play

NASA has sparked a race to develop the data pipeline to Mars

techcrunch.com Aria Alamalhodaei 2025-11-26 21:26:37

For decades, NASA built and flew its own relay orbiters and spacecraft to ferry valuable data back to Earth. Now the agency is shifting to buying connectivity as a service, much like it does for launch and astronaut transport. That pivot has sparked a race, with major contenders pitching ways to keep Mars missions online. What’s at stake isn’t a single contract: it’s the data pipe to Mars.

Google is adding a temporary chat feature to Gemini. The equivalent of a browser's incognito mode, it lets you have one-off AI chats. They won't appear in your history, influence future chats or be used for training. The temporary chats will be saved for up to 72 hours.

PUBG: Battlegrounds will leave PS4 and Xbox One behind later this year

PUBG: Battlegrounds is finally ready to ditch last-gen consoles. On Wednesday, the developer said that the game will transition to PS5 and Xbox Series X/S on November 13. Although the battle royale has been playable on current-gen consoles all along, it was running as a PS4 or Xbox One game. That helped it cast a wide net (and probably make more money), but it also came with technical limitations.

The road to artificial general intelligence
