It's Time I Admit I'm a Disney Adult and These New Disney Plus Videos Helped Me Realize That

"It's just that you don't look like a Disney adult," a friend of mine recently said after I told her how much I love Disney World. "Thank you," I replied, because the term "Disney adult" is usually said in a pejorative way, and even I cast judgment on it. But we Disney people are not all alike. I don't own a single piece of clothing adorned with Mickey or Minnie. However, I can tell you where you can buy a Dole Whip in every park and I could ride a monorail all day long. I have always hesitated

2025 Subaru WRX tS review: A scalpel-sharp chassis lets this car dance

The Subaru WRX has always been the equivalent of an automotive shrug. Not because it lacks character but because it simply doesn't care what others think. It's a punk rock band with enough talent to fill stadiums but band members who don't seem to care about chasing fame. And the STI versions of yesteryear proved so talented that fame chased them. For 2025, Subaru updated the WRX to now include the tS, which at first glance appears to be the same flannel-wearing street fighter. But looks can be

NASA Rewrites the Rules for Developers of Private Space Stations

About five years from now, a modified Dragon spacecraft will begin to fire its Draco thrusters, pushing the International Space Station out of its orbit and sending the largest object humans have built in space inexorably to the bottom of the Pacific Ocean. And then what? China’s Tiangong Space Station will still be going strong. NASA, however, faces a serious risk of losing its foothold in low-Earth orbit. Space agency leaders have long recognized this and nearly half a decade ago awarded abo

The Best Hearing Aids of 2025, Tested and Reviewed

How much money should you expect to spend on a hearing aid? The answer depends primarily on whether you’re looking into over-the-counter or prescription hearing aids. Unsurprisingly, the latter is a wallet guzzler, with average costs between $2,000 to $8,000. But OTCs can ring up quite a tab in their own right, and our most highly rated devices will still run you about $800 to $2,000 a pair. So far, we haven’t found an OTC device under this $800 price that is truly effective at treating hearing

Trump’s endless new tariffs are threatening businesses — and you

Stop me if you’ve heard this one before: a new wave of tariffs are taking effect today. As Trump has ratcheted up pressure on foreign imports over the last few months, some Americans might not have noticed a marked difference in what they’re spending, especially as huge tax hikes have been announced and then delayed or cut back. Trump’s perpetually changing tariff deadlines and rates led a Financial Times columnist to coin the phrase “TACO trade,” short for “Trump Always Chickens Out.” But expe

5 reasons I'm buying the Google Pixel 10 instead of the Pro this year (and won't regret it)

Kerry Wan/ZDNET ZDNET's key takeaways The Google Pixel 10 is expected to receive significant upgrades this year, including a dedicated telephoto lens. Greater feature parity with the Pro models, combined with no expected price increases, makes the standard Pixel an enticing option. It still won't be the best option for power users, especially if you want the most capable camera system from Google. Google's non-Pro Pixel phone has always been the "safe pick." It's the model I recommend to mo

Maybe we should do an updated Super Cars

We spoke with Andrew Morris and Shaun Southern, the creators of Super Cars. We love top down racers here at Spillhistorie.no, and one of our old favourites from the Amiga days is Super Cars II. This eminently playable game doesn’t just feature fun racing, but adds weapons and other dirty tricks to the mix.

Synthetic Biology for Space Exploration

The Apollo 11 Moon landing encouraged humankind to consider and investigate life beyond Earth more than 50 years ago1. However, in contrast to its lightning-fast success in terms of the remarkable technology development of the Mercury, Gemini and Apollo programs, human space exploration has been confined in Low Earth Orbit (LEO) for the past 50 years. Nevertheless, other space agencies, such as the European Space Agency (ESA) and the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA), have joined the two

An LLM does not need to understand MCP

Model Context Protocol (MCP) has become the standard for tool calling when building agents, but contrary to popular belief, your LLM does not need to understand MCP. You might have heard about the term "context engineering"; where you, as the person interacting with an LLM, are responsible for providing the right context to help it answer your questions. To gather this context, you can use tool calling to give the LLM access to a set of tools it can use to fetch information or take actions. MCP
