engadget.com Unknown 2025-10-12 13:10:06

On Wednesday, Sony rolled out its September Game Catalog additions for PS Plus subscribers. This month's entries run the gamut from turn-based tactics to survival horror and pro wrestling. Persona 5 Tactica (PS5/ PS4) may be the most critically acclaimed title in the batch. The 2023 Persona spinoff takes the mainline games' battles and shifts them into grid-based tactics. Think XCOM with Phantom Thieves. The Invincible (PS5) is an adaptation of the 1963 sci-fi novel by Stanisław Lem. As its in

Jason Hiner/ZDNET Follow ZDNET: Add us as a preferred source on Google. Apple just announced the new iPhone 17 Pro at its Awe Dropping live event, and it comes with some pretty substantial upgrades both in terms of design and capabilities. We're talking longer battery life, more onboard memory, a bigger and brighter screen, and an improved camera system. If you've got an iPhone 15 Pro, your device is already two years old.

Minerals represent potential biosignatures in the search for life on Mars

Chemical and sedimentological data indicate that reduced iron and sulfur were generated, mobilized and precipitated following the deposition of fine-grained oxidized iron- and phosphorous-bearing sediment. Except when found in authigenic nodules and reaction front rims, phosphate is not associated with a mineral phase (for example, there is no indication that apatite or merrillite are present; Fig. 4c). Accordingly, we suggest that during deposition, phosphate was adsorbed on Fe3+-, Al- and Si-r

Longhorn – a Kubernetes-native filesystem The other day, I took a look at Longhorn again. I briefly looked at it earlier, as a way to get volumes that are writeable from more than one node. I tossed it away then, because I mistook it for nothing more than a glorified NFS server. I was quite wrong. At the time of writing, I already know I’m going to make fundamental changes, I will not run with a 2-node cluster permanently, because the latency I have isn’t necessarily a good idea.
