The film critic and cultural historian J. Hoberman’s new book, “Everything Is Now: The 1960s New York Avant-Garde—Primal Happenings, Underground Movies, Radical Pop,” is as jubilantly overstuffed as its subtitle. The book is a startlingly slow read—and I say that with unbridled enthusiasm.

Samsung scores a win in Galaxy S22 throttling saga, but it still deceived customers

Ryan Haines / Android Authority TL;DR A Korean court has ruled that Samsung wasn’t liable for damages after it throttled Galaxy S22 phones. However, the court acknowledged that Samsung engaged in “deceptive labeling and advertising that was likely to mislead consumers.” Samsung throttled S22 phones out of the box back in 2022 and didn’t let users disable this functionality at first.

The Real Nvidia GPU Lineup: GeForce RTX 5060 is Actually a Mediocre 5050

Nvidia's latest generation of graphics cards might look familiar on the surface, but dig into the specs and a different story emerges.

Inside Amsterdam’s high-stakes experiment to create fair welfare AI

Finding a better way Every time an Amsterdam resident applies for benefits, a caseworker reviews the application for irregularities. If an application looks suspicious, it can be sent to the city’s investigations department—which could lead to a rejection, a request to correct paperwork errors, or a recommendation that the candidate receive less money. Investigations can also happen later, once benefits have been dispersed; the outcome may force recipients to pay back funds, and even push some
