Hollow Knight: Silksong costs $5 more than the original

After years of waiting, there's only three days left until Hollow Knight: Silksong is out in this world. We only got the September 4 release date a few weeks ago and now we have the final piece of the puzzle: price. Team Cherry, the indie studio behind the Hollow Knight series, has announced on X (formerly Twitter) that Hollow Knight: Silksong will cost $20. That's a $5 increase from 2017's original mega hit Hollow Knight game. Which, after almost a decade, isn't very surprising. We also have

Are we decentralized yet?

This page measures the concentration of user data on the Fediverse and the Atmosphere according to the Herfindahl–Hirschman Index (HHI), an indicator from economics used to measure competition between firms in an industry. Mathematically, HHI is the sum of the squares of market shares of all servers. Values close to zero indicate perfectly competitive markets (eg. many servers, with users spread evenly), while values close to 10000 indicate highly concentrated monopolies (eg. most users on a si

Your 2025 NFL Sunday Ticket Packages, Explained

Before the NFL season kicks off on Sept. 4, some of us cord-cutters may still need time to sort through sports packages. YouTube's NFL Sunday Ticket is enticing, but not every plan is the same; there are different prices, programming lineups and multiple ways to pay for it.

We Know When the iPhone 17 Will Be Announced, but When Can You Get It? Our Best Estimates

After months of tracking leaks and speculation, we now have a solid date for when the iPhone 17 will be announced. Apple sent out invitations -- once again with an enigmatic design that raises even more questions -- for its fall event, which is happening Sept. 9. Although it's entirely possible that the secretive company could pull a head-fake and not announce a new flagship iPhone lineup, that's about as likely as catching Taylor Swift riding a giraffe. But we don't know everything yet. Once t

Windows 11 25H2 update hits its last stop before release to the general public

Microsoft's fifth major iteration of Windows 11 is nearing its release to the general public—the Windows Insider team announced today that Windows 11 25H2 was being put into its Release Preview Channel, the final stop for most updates before they become available to everyone. That's around two months after the first Windows builds with the 25H2 label were released to the other preview channels. Putting a new yearly Windows update in the Release Preview channel is analogous to the "release to ma

Nintendo has given developers the option to release cartridges that are basically empty shells, called game-key cards, t

Great Scott! ‘Back to the Future’ Is Getting a Snazzy Theatrical Re-Release

Forty years after its release, Back to the Future‘s pop-culture presence is as strong as ever thanks to theme parks, the tie-in musical, a missing-guitar mystery, and simply the enduring love for the movie itself. Starting October 31, fans can revisit the Robert Zemeckis-directed, Steven Spielberg-produced time-travel classic on the big screen. And we do mean big: this re-release is targeting premium, large-scale formats, including Dolby Cinema, 4DX, and D-Box—as well as IMAX. According to a Un

The Morning Show returns September 17, packing more star power than ever Apple TV+ launched in 2019 with The Morning Show as its biggest tentpole, and the series has remained one of the streamer’s most popular offerings ever since.

‘House of the Dragon’ Star Olivia Cooke Teases ‘More Ferocious’ Season 3

House of the Dragon fans have been waiting patiently for more season three info, and series star Olivia Cooke has thrown them a bone or two. Cooke told Screen Rant earlier this week that the upcoming season would be “massive,” and she’s only continued to hype it up. In a recent Collider interview, she described it as “bigger and more ferocious than before. It starts off with a bang: the first two episodes were essentially supposed to be our finale last year, so you can just imagine that sort of

Contrastive Representations for Temporal Reasoning

In classical AI, perception relies on learning spatial representations, while planning—temporal reasoning over action sequences—is typically achieved through search. We study whether such reasoning can instead emerge from representations that capture both spatial and temporal structure. We show that standard temporal contrastive learning, despite its popularity, often fails to capture temporal structure, due to reliance on spurious features. To address this, we introduce Contrastive Representati

RFK Jr’s plan to improve America’s diet is missing the point

“I’m working with Linda on forcing medical schools … to put nutrition into medical school education,” Kennedy said during a cabinet meeting on August 26. The next day, HHS released a statement calling for “increased nutrition education” for medical students. “We can reverse the chronic-disease epidemic simply by changing our diets and lifestyles,” Kennedy said in an accompanying video statement. “But to do that, we need nutrition to be a basic part of every doctor’s training.” It certainly sou

Eero Pro 7 Review: Smooth Sailing

Amazon’s Eero mesh range is tough to beat for folks seeking a set-and-forget mesh Wi-Fi system for their home. Simplicity, with a side of smart home support, makes the Eero Pro 7 a compelling prospect. It strikes a nice balance in Eero’s Wi-Fi 7 lineup, offering the faster 6-GHz band and better all-around performance than the entry-level Eero 7, while costing far less than the top-of-the-line Max 7. While I experienced teething troubles with systems like the Max 7 when Wi-Fi 7 was new, my time

Don’t Worry, ‘Wednesday’ Fans, the Coma Is Almost Over

The Wednesday hype might seemingly be waning, but it’s worth noting that perhaps the Tim Burton series could just be experiencing a lull thanks to its strange release schedule. With season two part one’s debut going from the top of the streamer’s charts to dropping 50%, according to What’s on Netflix, this might just be a sign that fans are eagerly awaiting to binge the season in full. One of our criticisms of the staggered summer and fall releases was that despite this season being the best ye

Bella Ramsey Tells ‘The Last of Us’ Haters to Go Play Their Video Games

The online discourse surrounding The Last of Us season two was entrenched in unwarranted outrage, sparked by outrage over the show’s centering a gay love story and killing off the franchise’s leading man. The trolling, which resulted in the show getting review bombed, of course, is weird considering that both these major plot aspects are also present in Neil Druckmann’s series of Naughty Dog games. Recently Bella Ramsey, the show’s Emmy Award-nominated lead (alongside Pedro Pascal), discussed w

reMarkable is back, teasing something big (but also maybe small) slated for Sept. 3. In a teaser on YouTube, the company is building hype about the upcoming event with a very brief glimmer of what appears to be a new product. In the teaser, reMarkable includes on-screen text stating that “something is on the move.” I don’t claim to be some kind of riddle-solving brain genius, but I am going to go ahead and guess there’s a deeper meaning to that statement. “Something,” in this case, most likely

iPhone 17 pricing: Here’s the rumored cost for each new model

Nearly Every Whale Shark at This Tourist Destination Bears Human-Made Scars

The world’s largest living fish has plenty to fear from people. New research shows that a large proportion of whale sharks at a popular and protected tourism region bear scars caused by human activity. A large group of marine scientists examined more than a decade’s worth of whale shark sightings in the Bird’s Head Seascape off Indonesia. Among other things, they found that over half of the sharks had injuries attributable to humans. Many of these injuries were preventable, the researchers say,
