The inaugural fully mouse-controlled game for the new Nintendo Switch 2 is set to be released on Aug. 14, and you'll be able to grab it for $20. You won't be able to get a physical copy of Drag x Drive, however, because the game is limited to the Nintendo eShop. The pricing for Drag x Drive reflects the scope of the game, as this is a low-stakes party title spotlighting an underrepresented sport with quick pickup matches.

In Brief The VCs, pod bros, and self-proclaimed “besties” of the All-In Podcast launched their own tequila brand Saturday night and it promptly sold out, according to liquor ecommerce sites. Their version of the Mexican spirit cost a jaw-dropping $1,200 apiece but only 750 bottles were made. The stacked poker-chip container was inspired by the “besties” love of the card game.

Chinese Military Shows Off Fly-Sized Drones for Covert Ops

When it comes to robotics, nobody's doing it quite like China. Despite not truly industrializing until the 1950s — some 75 years after the United States — the nation has surged to the global forefront of robotics development. Between 2022 and 2023, China installed over half of all global robotics installed throughout the globe, scoring the second-highest annual robot deployment ever recorded — a close runner up to its own previous record, which it set between 2021 and 2022.

Chrome on Android is finally making a long-awaited UI change over a year after iOS

TL;DR A browser with its address bar at the bottom of the screen is a desirable layout for mobile devices. Chrome on iOS got this option back in 2023, but has so far lacked it on Android. Today, Google finally starts giving Android users the choice, as well.

Apple is known for rarely offering major discounts, especially on its latest products.
