She recalls it as a time in her life when she began to feel full of possibility. “I had started making friends, and I was feeling good,” she said. After the spring semester

wired.com Megan Farokhmanesh 2025-12-18 16:24:16

On Thursday, indie gaming platform Itch.io began re-indexing some of the adult content it had delisted last month amid pressure from conservative groups and payment processors over its hosting of NSFW titles. While the move returns some content to the site’s searchable catalog, it impacts only those games, comics, and other offerings that are already free and therefore not caught in the current payment debacle. “We are still in ongoing discussions with payment processors and will be reintroduci

Robert Triggs / Android Authority TL;DR Prices for the original Nintendo Switch family of products will change in the US on August 3, 2025. The reason is attributed to market conditions in the US. Other products, like certain Switch 2 accessories, select amiibo, and the Alarmo clock, will also see price adjustments. Normally, after a new console launches, the previous system will see a price cut. It appears Nintendo is preparing to do the opposite with the original Switch. And it looks like

AI Won’t Boost Human Productivity Yet, U.S. Federal Reserve Says

gizmodo.com Ece Yildirim 2025-12-19 10:00:13

Generative AI is not just another tech hype cycle that is bound to die down but is instead a game-changer for human productivity, according to the Federal Reserve. The big caveat, though, is the road to get there will be “inherently slow” and “fraught with risk.” In a recent paper published by the Fed Board of Governors, researchers suggest that the hype around generative AI is probably not a bubble in the long run and that the technology will be a serious macroeconomic force, proving to have r
