10 Years Later, The Order: 1886 Is Still Stupid, Compelling, and Kinda Fun

Since 2006, PlayStation has prided itself on big, cinematic first-party titles that justify your console purchase, and when they hit, they hit. Over the years, several internal studios have delivered blockbuster franchises like God of War, Marvel’s Spider-Man, and The Last of Us. But spare a thought for the ones that didn’t make the cut: for whatever reason, they just didn’t resonate or hit desired benchmarks, and now remain as odd one-offs with a niche fanbase that loves it for what it was and

Microsoft Majorana 1 chip promises real quantum computing within years, not decades

Forward-looking: Microsoft has unveiled a new quantum chip called "Majorana 1" that claims will make scaled, real-world quantum computing a reality in just years rather than decades. It's palm-sized and has a delightfully retro look yet Microsoft claims it will eventually pack more theoretical computing power than all the world's current classical computers combined. The Majorana 1 comes after nearly two decades of research. The big claims come thanks to Microsoft's unique approach to the quant

Viral PS3 emulator for Android has already vanished alongside its shady developer

TL;DR The aPS3e PS3 emulator has been removed from GitHub, possibly because of copyright and licensing issues. The developer Aenu’s account also seems to have been removed. aPS3e had quickly risen to fame in recent days for bringing quality PS3 emulation to Android. In a sudden and somewhat expected move, the aPS3e emulator, which had briefly stirred up excitement among Android gamers hoping to emulate PS3 titles on their devices, has disappeared from GitHub. Developed by a developer known a

Someone just released a PS3 emulator for Android (Update: And it’s gone)

Nick Fernandez / Android Authority Update (0:24 AM EST, February 20, 2025): The aPS3e PS3 emulator made headlines this week as the first functional PS3 emulator on Android. Unfortunately, the app and developer have seemingly disappeared. The project GitHub page and developer Aenu’s account have both disappeared, now offering a 404 error screen. This comes after reports that this new emulator actually used code from the open-source RPCS3 emulator. Furthermore, the developer was asking for $2,00

I tried the new PS3 emulator on Android and it technically works, but it has a long way to go

Nick Fernandez / Android Authority The era of PS3 emulation on Android is here! To some degree, at least. Android emulation geeks are abuzz with excitement over aPS3e, the first native PS3 emulator for Android phones. Sure, most of the code appears to be cobbled together from open-source PS3 emulation projects like RPCS3, Vita3K, and Termux (probably breaking their licenses), but the fact that it’s working at all is a big step forward. The app itself has now been removed from GitHub due to th

This Switch emulator dev is working on a (legit) PS3 emulator for Android

Hadlee Simons / Android Authority TL;DR Sudachi developer Jarrod Norwell is working on a new Android port of RPCS3. He is also behind Folium, one of the few emulators on iOS. There’s no playable build yet, but aPS3e has already proved native PS3 emulation on Android is possible. The barrier to PS3 emulation on Android has never been thinner. Although the initial aPS3e app has been removed from GitHub amid licensing controversies, there’s now new hope from a familiar Australian developer. Cal

The Galaxy A16 5G isn’t exciting, but there’s one big reason why I think it’s the best budget phone

Samsung Galaxy A16 5G Samsung's Galaxy A16 5G doesn't revolutionize what it means to be a budget phone with new materials, an upgraded camera, or AI-powered features, but it delivers tons of value, backed by a flagship-grade update commitment that will see it supported for up to six years. It might not leap off the page, but this cheap Android phone is more than worth the money as a first phone or a long-term option for an older loved one. It’s tough to make a truly exciting budget Android phon

FAQ on Microsoft's topological qubit thing

Q1. Did you see Microsoft’s announcement? A. Yes, thanks, you can stop emailing to ask! Microsoft’s Chetan Nayak was even kind enough to give me a personal briefing a few weeks ago. Yesterday I did a brief interview on this for the BBC’s World Business Report, and I also commented for MIT Technology Review. Q2. What is a topological qubit? A. It’s a special kind of qubit built using nonabelian anyons, which are excitations that can exist in a two-dimensional medium, behaving neither as fermio

It’s Raining SpaceX Debris in Poland

If you happened to be awake and looking at the sky at around 3:30 am in Northern Europe on Wednesday, you got quite the show. It was around that time that a Space X Falcon 9 rocket was making an uncontrolled reentry into the Earth’s atmosphere, with the fiery debris spotted in the sky by residents in Denmark, Sweden, and England, per the BBC. But it was Poland that got to see the aftermath up close and personal, as what is believed to be parts of the rocket crash-landed across the country. Jasn

Best Internet Providers in Las Vegas, Nevada

What is the best internet provider in Las Vegas? CNET ranks Cox as the top internet service provider in Las Vegas, thanks to its extensive coverage and variety of plans.

Tubi Is Not the Next Netflix. It’s Something Better

Here’s a fun tidbit to toss out at your next dinner party: Tubi is home to the biggest content library of all the streamers. That’s right, the one-time underdog of streaming now claims it has more content than Netflix. Tubi has over 275,000 titles from every era and genre of film and television. At least, that's what the company says; it’s nearly impossible to verify given the library’s size. Offerings span cult classics (Cooley High), ’90s heist movies (The Thomas Crown Affair), and everything

The world’s thinnest foldable phone doesn’t come cheap

Oppo has launched the Find N5, the thinnest foldable phone in the world. It’s launching in markets worldwide, including across Europe and Asia, at $2,499 SGD (about $1,867 USD). That’s more expensive than either the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 or Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold in Singapore, though comparable once you adjust for storage. There won’t be any US release at all though, as sister brand OnePlus has already confirmed that it has no plans to launch a foldable phone this year. The Find N5 is slimme

Valar Atomics comes out of stealth with $19M and a pilot reactor site

Companies developing small modular nuclear reactors (SMRs) have raised more than $1.5 billion in the past year, as tech companies hunger for power to train AI models and governments decide to commit to the industry. For example, X-energy raised $700 million this month, and Paris-based Newcleo raised $151 million last year, and one would be remiss to not mention the $700 million invested into Oklo, NuScale and Nano Nuclear for similar projects in the U.S. While nuclear fusion still looks relati
