Survival at High Altitudes: Wheel-Well Passengers (1996)

Abstract: Ten specific "wheel-well" passenger stowaway flights (the wheel-well area was entered just before takeoff) are documented in the N.Y. Times, covering the period 1947 to 1993. Five stowaways survived flights encompassing altitudes as high as 39,000 feet, with six dying in the process (one flight had two stowaways: one fatal, one surviving). Three Douglas DC-8 and four Boeing 707 aircraft, plus a Caravelle, an unknown jet, and a piston airliner were utilized. Several of the wheel well f

SK hynix confirms 3GB GDDR7 modules, paving way for RTX 50 Super VRAM boost

The big picture: Rumors about Nvidia's RTX 50 Super series graphics cards featuring more VRAM started circulating almost immediately after the standard variants launched with underwhelming memory capacities. Although the chipmaker has yet to comment, a recent announcement from SK hynix suggests that larger VRAM pools are indeed on the horizon. SK hynix has confirmed plans to develop GDDR7 memory modules with a maximum capacity of 24Gb (3GB), an upgrade from the long-standing 16Gb (2GB) standard

Will Gamers Care About ‘Cyberpunk 2077’ on Mac Like They Did With the Switch 2?

We keep talking about Cyberpunk 2077 five years after launch for good reason. It’s still a high watermark for in-game graphics. I’ve been playing it religiously for the fifth time on Switch 2, amazed that the game runs so well on a slim handheld. Now it’s coming to Apple’s Mac products, and the fanfare has been far more subdued. We’ll see how well it performs when it hits the scene on July 17. We’ll also find out if Apple fans honestly care about Cyberpunk 2077 on a MacBook Air compared to Ninte

Cyberpunk 2077 launching on Mac this week

Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition is officially coming to the Mac this week. CD PROJEKT RED has announced that the game will be available on Thursday, July 17 for Macs powered by Apple Silicon through the Mac App Store, GOG.com, Steam, and Epic Games Store. The launch of Cyberpunk 2077 on the Mac follows the debut of Assassin’s Creed Shadows on the Mac earlier this year. Apple touted that Cyberpunk 2077 would be available on the Mac sometime in 2025 when it announced the new M4 MacBook Pro line

One of My Favorite Gaming Laptops Gets a Serious Prime Day Cut

This has not been a good year for Prime Day gaming laptop deals. We've been collecting the best Prime Day deals all week (and liveblogging the whole event) There's a lot of outdated, previous-gen laptops flooding the virtual Amazon store shelves, most of which are not discounted enough to be worth buying with the new RTX 50-series graphics having just come out. There's one diamond in the rough though—and it's a laptop I tested out recently, the Asus ROG Strix G16. It's one of the best gaming la

Cyberpunk 2077 heads up July's PS Plus Game Catalog additions

PlayStation Plus members can visit Night City on the house. Years after its botched release, the now-polished Cyberpunk 2077 is now in Sony's Game Catalog. Other July arrivals include the Half-Life-esque Abiotic Factor and the banana republic sim Tropico 6. Had Cyberpunk 2077 launched in its current state, it may have been a 2020 Game of the Year candidate. Alas, that wasn't the case. It arrived as a buggy mess, including characters rocking the fashion-forward "penis outside the pants" look. B

The Dyson Air Purifier Is 50% Off, Amazon Launches Final Clearance Amid Soaring Pollution

Pollution is one of the largest issues of the 21st century, and keeping your home environment clean has never been so necessary. Having the right air purifier can make the difference but with so many low-grade products available, it is very important to select carefully. Dyson is already skilled in the science of airflow control in vacuum cleaners and hair dryers, and it transfers that expertise into the field of air purification with the Dyson Purifier Cool TP07. Today, the Dyson Purifier Cool

Nvidia's RTX 5070 Ti vanishes in seconds as supply woes continue

Facepalm: After Nvidia's RTX 5090 and 5080 faced immediate shortages, consumers hoped that the company's new mid-range graphics cards would at least stay in stock for more than a millisecond. Unfortunately, the RTX 5070 Ti sold out just as quickly, and reports suggest that the RTX 5070 and 5060 may face similar supply issues. As the RTX 5070 Ti officially "launched" on February 20, screenshots of storefronts revealed just how quickly every model sold out. Screenshots of Newegg's front page, ta

Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 Ti review: An RTX 4080 for $749, at least in theory

Nvidia's RTX 50-series makes its first foray below the $1,000 mark starting this week, with the $749 RTX 5070 Ti—at least in theory. The third-fastest card in the Blackwell GPU lineup, the 5070 Ti is still far from "reasonably priced" by historical standards (the 3070 Ti was $599 at launch). But it's also $50 cheaper and a fair bit faster than the outgoing 4070 Ti Super and the older 4070 Ti. These are steps in the right direction, if small ones. We'll talk more about its performance shortly,
