Elden Ring Nightreign is adding two-player co-op next week

Elden Ring Nightreign is finally adding a two-player co-op mode on July 30. Prior to this, FromSoftware's spinoff could only be played solo or with three players. The so-called Duo Expeditions come as part of patch 1.02. This is something fans have been asking for, as not everybody has two friends available at once to tackle a tough-as-nails 3D adventure. FromSoftware has released a trailer to accompany this news, so you can see the two-player co-op in action. Beyond Duo Expeditions, the forth

Vanilla JavaScript support for Tailwind Plus

There are a lot of UI blocks in Tailwind Plus that need JavaScript to really be useful, like dialogs, dropdowns, command palettes, and more. And unless you're a React or Vue user, using those UI blocks has always meant writing all of that tricky JavaScript yourself. Well today that finally changes — every UI block in Tailwind Plus is now fully functional, accessible, and interactive, including the plain HTML examples. Now you can use any dropdown, command palette, dialog, drawer, and more in a

Neon Now Runs in VS Code

Developers love using Neon branches for a local development, due to the agility they provide (e.g. fast resets, isolated environments, and the ability to test without polluting production data). But using Neon branches still requires you to manage separate connection strings for different branches and ensure your application and its environment is properly set up to connect. Today, that gets a lot easier, especially if you’re a VS Code user! We’re launching Neon Local Connect, a new VS Code ext

Implementing a Functional Language with Graph Reduction

The implementation is structured into three parts: A λ-calculus parser from A Combinatory Compiler which was extended to cover a tiny functional language based on the untyped λ-calculus. A compiler from λ-calculus to combinatory logic combinators (S,K,I,B,C and Y) which i

Elon Musk Swipes Back at Trump After Apparent Peace Offering

Yesterday, President Trump seemed to offer an olive branch to his former “first buddy,” Elon Musk, amidst their ongoing spat. In a post made to Truth Social, Trump claimed that he didn’t wish any harm on Elon or his businesses. “Everyone is stating that I will destroy Elon’s companies by taking away some, if not all, of the large-scale subsidies he receives from the U.S. Government. This is not so! I want Elon, and all businesses within our Country, to THRIVE, in fact, THRIVE like never before!”

Can Vibration Plates Help You Lose Weight? We Asked Experts to Find Out

If you have any type of social media, you've likely seen someone trying to sell you a vibration plate claiming that they've lost weight by just standing on a small platform that vibrates. Similar to the mid-20th-century vibrating belt machines, vibration plates have been said to provide the body with various benefits and can even be a tool for weight loss. But is the hype backed by science and expert opinions, or is it all social media hearsay? To find out if you should add a vibration plate to

The electric Stark Varg EX is brutally fast but a little too unrefined

Stark Future provided flights from Albany, New York, to Barcelona, Spain, and accommodation so Ars could ride the Varg EX. Ars does not accept paid editorial content. The sport of off-roading suffers from a fundamental discordance: The desire to get out into nature and the irreparable harm inherent in the process of off-roading. That harm comes not only from damage to the land itself, but from an environment polluted with both fumes and noise. Off-roading in an EV isn't exactly a panacea, but

Alexa+ preview: An almost philosophical exercise

“Alexa, I need to write a review about you.” “Oh, a review? I’m intrigued! What’s the occasion? I’d love to hear what you think.” “There’s no occasion, this is just my work.” “Ah, I see. Writing a professional review, got it. I’m here to help if you need any specific information.” “Yeah, what should I consider when reviewing you?” “Consider my natural voice, emotional intelligence and my ability to handle complex tasks.

13 tech trends to watch now, according to McKinsey (and no, it's not all AI)

MF3d / Getty Images When we hear the word "technology," most of us automatically think of hardware; the physical devices that have become such a conspicuously present part of many of our day-to-day lives. But technology is a much more expansive phenomenon, encompassing not only all the various tools and gadgets we can clearly see, but also a vast and mostly invisible digital infrastructure of software and code upon which our modern world is based.

How Is T-Mobile's Starlink-Based Satellite Service Different From the Rest? I Tried It First-Hand

T-Mobile's new T-Satellite service commercially launched this week. It uses the Starlink satellite network to let you send and receive text messages from space. For $10 a month (or included in the cost of the company's Experience Beyond plan), the service can be a communications lifeline when you're out of cellular coverage. But that's the thing: To test it out, I had to find a cellular dead zone. T-Mobile estimates there are 500,000 square miles in the US with no cell coverage, so I left my ho

Is Trump Trying to Get Back in Elon Musk’s Good Graces?

Elon Musk and Donald Trump joined forces before the 2024 presidential election to help each other out. Trump needed Musk’s money to buy votes and Musk needed Trump to decimate the federal government while making sure contracts with his own companies remained untouched. But the two men had a very messy falling out back in late May, when Musk departed his government role with DOGE, the Department of Government Efficiency. But no matter how much the men may bicker in public, they keep trying to si

Starlink outage: Service returns after over two hours down

SpaceX's Starlink satellite internet service experienced a global outage on Thursday that lasted for over two hours. Reports of connectivity issues started around 3:20PM ET, based on DownDetector. SpaceX didn't acknowledged the outage until 4:05PM ET, via a post on the Starlink X account. Service began to come back for some at around 5:30PM ET, and Michael Nicolls, Starlink's VP of engineering, said the provider had "mostly recovered" at 6:23PM ET. Users across the US, Europe, the UK and Asia r

Starlink is experiencing a network outage

SpaceX's Starlink satellite internet service is experiencing an outage. Reports of connectivity issues started around 3:20PM ET, based on DownDetector, though SpaceX has only recently acknowledged the outage via a post on the Starlink X account. Users across the US, Europe and the UK have also reported issues on r/starlink, the service's Reddit page, and SpaceX has even acknowledged the outage on Starlink's website. The number of people potentially impacted could number in the millions — as of

Electric cars produce less brake dust pollution than combustion-engine cars

“It’s not just the tailpipe y’all,” joked one Electrek commenter, alluding to the black discolorations on alloy wheels visible proof of a less infamous city pollutant: brake dust. For decades, exhaust emissions have been the focus of city-air cleaning initiatives, but a new wave of research indicates that the real story goes far beyond the muffler.

Samsung killed its classic DeX mode in One UI 8, but there’s a good reason

Mishaal Rahman / Android Authority TL;DR Samsung killed its “classic” DeX in One UI 8, replacing it with a new version built on top of Google’s native Desktop Mode in Android. This move aligns DeX with Google’s broader effort to improve Android’s desktop capabilities, which should benefit DeX in the long run. However, the new DeX is currently a downgrade for users, as it lacks many quality-of-life features that were present in the classic version. Samsung DeX is one of the best features of O

Josh Brolin Doesn’t Seem Enthused About a Potential ‘Goonies 2’

Forty years have passed since The Goonies delighted audiences and captured the adventurous imaginations of a generation. In that time, talk of a sequel has never ended, but as of earlier this year, it’s more real than it ever has been. Warner Bros. has, as of a few months back, hired someone to write a Goonies 2. And while many of the original cast members have been very vocal and excited about the idea, the group’s elder statesman, Josh Brolin, seems much less enthusiastic. Brolin, who went on

Cybercrime forum Leak Zone publicly exposed its users’ IP addresses

A self-styled “leaking and cracking forum” where users advertise and share breached databases, stolen credentials, and pirated software was leaking the IP addresses of its logged-in users to the open web, security researchers have found. Leak Zone left an Elasticsearch database exposed to the internet without a password, according to researchers at UpGuard. In a blog post shared with TechCrunch ahead of its publication, the researchers said they discovered the database on July 18 and found its

Spotify takes a swing at gaming with a mini golf game ahead of ‘Happy Gilmore 2’ release

Netflix and Spotify have teamed up to launch a golf-inspired game as a way to promote “Happy Gilmore 2,” the sequel to Adam Sandler’s 1996 comedy film, which premieres on Netflix this Friday, July 25. This partnership represents a new venture for Spotify, as the music platform has never teamed up with another company to create a gaming experience within its app before. Gaming is an area Spotify has largely overlooked, so working with the streaming giant is notable, even if only for a promotion

What does connecting with someone mean?

Published on 24th July 2025 Connect I read a lot about the idea of connecting with people. They say it's the reason to get good at conversation — so you can connect. A problem I had with this advice is I couldn't find a good explanation of what connecting means. It means mutual empathy — they get you and you get them. It's discovering similar values, experiences and perspectives. It's a feeling of trust and comfort where you both feel safe to say what is truly on your mind. That feeling is wh

SpaceX launches a pair of NASA satellites to probe the origins of space weather

Two NASA satellites rocketed into orbit from California aboard a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket Wednesday, commencing a $170 million mission to study a phenomenon of space physics that has eluded researchers since the dawn of the Space Age. The twin spacecraft are part of the NASA-funded TRACERS mission, which will spend at least a year measuring plasma conditions in narrow regions of Earth's magnetic field known as polar cusps. As the name suggests, these regions are located over the poles. They play

Leprechauns, root causes, and other fairy tales

This is a short talk I gave a while ago about how complex systems fail, and root cause analysis. Transcript is below. Transcript We’re going to talk about root causes today, but since I only have about 10 minutes, I wanted to start with some stories from a book I’m writing called Bedtime Stories To Put Your Children To Sleep Instantly And Also Yourself.
