$100 Hamburger

Aviation slang $100 hamburger ("hundred-dollar hamburger") is aviation slang for the excuse a general aviation pilot might use to fly.[1][2] Background [ edit ] A $100 hamburger trip typically involves flying a short distance (less than two hours), eating at an airport restaurant, and then flying home. "$100" originally referred to the approximate cost of renting or operating a light general aviation aircraft, such as a Cessna 172, for the time it took to fly round-trip to a nearby airport. H

Stellar Blade becomes Sony's most successful PC port in under 24 hours

In brief: Many of the PC ports that Sony published for formerly PlayStation 5-exclusive games struggled to gain traction on Steam, and some suffered from performance issues. Shift Up Corporation's Stellar Blade seems to have easily avoided both pitfalls, becoming an immediate hit with Steam users. Barely a day after Stellar Blade launched on Steam and the Epic Games Store, the hack-and-slash action game has blown past all other late PC ports from PlayStation Publishing LLC, Sony's PC conversion

Best Internet Providers in Columbus, Ohio

What is the best internet provider in Columbus? CNET's broadband experts recommend AT&T Fiber as the best internet service provider in Columbus, Ohio. It's not hard to see why: the ISP has reasonable pricing, ranging from $55 to $245, as well as the fastest speeds in the area with 2 and 5 gigabits, respectively. However, its biggest pitfall is that its geographic reach isn't 100% -- so those not in the region will need to look elsewhere. But there are plenty of great alternatives, such as Spect

Builder.ai did not "fake AI with 700 engineers"

The Pulse is a series covering insights, patterns, and trends within Big Tech and startups. Notice an interesting event or trend? Send me a message. Before we start, an important correction from last week’s The Pulse: this publication was among those to incorrectly report that defunct AI startup, Builder.ai, faked its product by hiring 700 human engineers to pretend to be an AI product called Natasha. I’ve since talked with former engineers at Builder.ai to get the real story, which is the firs

China's digging out of a crisis, but America's luck is wearing thin – Ken Rogoff

Ken Rogoff is the former chief economist of the IMF, a professor of Economics at Harvard, and author of the newly released Our Dollar, Your Problem and This Time is Different. On this episode, Ken predicts that, within the next decade, the US will have a debt-induced inflation crisis, but not a Japan-type financial crisis (the latter is much worse, and can make a country poorer for generations). Ken also explains how China is trapped: in order to solve their current problems, they keep leaning

20,000 malware domains taken out by massive 26-country police strike

A massive international law enforcement operation coordinated by Interpol has seen one of the biggest ever takedowns of a malware network. The simultaneous strike across 26 countries resulted in more than 20,000 domains being taken offline, and the arrest of 32 suspects … Bleeping Computer reports that the investigation was coordinated by Interpol. Led by Interpol and conducted from January to April 2025, the operation focused on disrupting infostealer malware groups that steal financial and

I didn’t think I needed a robot lawnmower until I tried this one

MAMMOTION YUKA mini 800 The Mammotion Yuka Mini 800 functions reliably, runs silently, and gets the job done all on its own. I had fairly low expectations going into reviewing the Mammotion Yuka Mini 800, mainly because my understanding of robot grass mowers was outdated. The last time I had checked, they were all too expensive for me to seriously consider getting one for my suburban backyard. I also thought that these machines required guide wires to define the areas you want mowed, something

ChatGPT gets crushed at chess by a 1 MHz Atari 2600

Editor's take: Despite being hailed as the next step in the evolution of artificial intelligence, large language models are no smarter than a piece of rotten wood. Every now and then, some odd experiment or test reminds everyone that so-called "intelligent" AI doesn't actually exist if you're living outside a tech company's quarterly report. A cycle-exact emulation of the Atari 2600 CPU running at a meager 1.19 MHz is more than enough to utterly humiliate ChatGPT in a game of chess. Citrix engi

Cybertruck Sales Are So Bad That We Gasped

There's little left for us to say that can further embarrass the Tesla Cybertruck, a vehicle that was supposed to be the culmination of Elon Musk's genius. And maybe this is what Musk's genius looks like. The luckless EV has faced eight recalls so far, and its trademark stainless steel panels, when they aren't flying off, have demonstrated that they're better at serving as a shiny canvas for spray paint than as the armor of an "apocalypse-proof" tank. But somehow, its already dire sales are no

Here’s the first offer we’ve seen on them, but it isn’t exactly a price cut. Instead, you are getting a free $30 gift card as a nice little incentive right now. Buy the Sony WH-1000XM6 and get a $30 gift card for $448 ($31.99 off) This offer is avai

Amiga 4000T: The Best Amiga in the World

Amiga 4000T: The Best Amiga in the World There had never been an Amiga better than Amiga 4000T. The T stands for tower, but this computer did not stand out in Amiga history due to its format factor, as Commodore had already been selling the tower version of A3000. Rather, it was the ultimate Amiga in what many call today the "classic" series, and nothing better — or anything else for that matter — has ever been produced in the classic Amiga line since this model was released.

Best Pet Insurance Companies for 2025

CNET’s expert staff reviews and rates dozens of new products and services each month, building on more than a quarter century of expertise. Americans love their pets.

This 1.9-pound smartphone battery life can be measured in months

Bottom line: Advances in battery technology combined with more efficient hardware and smarter software have allowed smartphones to reach impressive runtime milestones. To borrow a phrase from the automotive world, however, "there's no replacement for displacement" – meaning capacity is still king. The problem, of course, is that few want to lug around a handset with a giant battery just to get more uptime between charges… or at least, that's what most manufacturers believe. For those who priori

Aqara Smart Lock U300 drops to its all-time low price, and I bought it!

Nvidia’s Big Plan to Beat Back RTX 5090 Scalpers Is the Same as Everybody Else’s

The markup on Nvidia’s $2,000 GeForce RTX 5090 and $1,000 RTX 5080 GPUs has reached new heights. Cards fly off store shelves as soon as they’re posted online, and then they end up on eBay and other reselling platforms at a 50% or 150% markup. Nvidia’s new plan to help you get an FE card for the base price involves entering your name in a raffle and hoping your name gets drawn out of a hat. Nvidia’s process is very simple. As noted on its official forums Wednesday, anybody with a Nvidia account

I doubled my PC's storage with this thumb-sized accessory. Here's how it works

ZDNET's key takeaways PNY 1TB CS3150 M.2 storage drive, available for around $115. Overall, it's a fast M.2 drive with active cooling to keep running temperatures below the maximum rated temperature. The heatsink makes the drive rather bulky, and you will need a 4-pin fan header on the motherboard to power the fans. $169.99 at B&H Photo-Video In the not-so-distant past, the solution for speed-boosting an aging and sluggish PC was to add more RAM or upgrade the processor.

1972 Unix V2 "Beta" Resurrected

[TUHS] 1972 UNIX V2 "Beta" Resurrected Hi everyone, First-time poster here. Near the end of last year, I did some forensic analysis on the DMR tapes (https://www.tuhs.org/Archive/Applications/Dennis_Tapes) and had some fun playing around with them. Warren forwarded a few of my emails to this list at the end of last year and the beginning of this year, but it was never my intention for him to be my messenger, so I'm posting here myself now. Here's an update on my work with the s1/s2 tapes - I've
