Deluxe Paint on the Commodore Amiga

Back when EA was cool, they packaged their software in album-style sleeves and promoted their developers like rock stars. I was a Dan Silva groupie. VisiCalc on the Apple II. Lotus 1-2-3 on the IBM PC. Aldus PageMaker on the Macintosh. Deluxe Paint on the Amiga. The computer industry loves a “killer app,” that unique piece of software that compels consumers to purchase new computer hardware just for the privilege of running it.

Meta Has Already Won the Smart Glasses Race

wired.com Amy Francombe 2025-10-30 07:00:00

At Meta’s Q2 2025 earnings call at the end of July, Mark Zuckerberg didn’t hold back. “If you don’t have glasses that have AI,” he warned, “you’re probably going to be at a pretty significant cognitive disadvantage compared to other people.” Forget smartphones. According to Zuck, the real interface of the future is what’s sitting on your nose. These AI-powered specs, he argues, will “see what we see, hear what we hear, and talk to us” in real time—offering a kind of digital copilot for everyday

The Switch OLED went up in price, but you can still save $110

theverge.com Cameron Faulkner 2025-12-05 08:24:08

Nintendo recently made the unexpected decision to increase the prices of its last-gen Switch hardware due to “market conditions,” adding $30 to the cost of the $199.99 Switch Lite, $40 to the standard $299.99 Switch, and $50 to the $349.99 Switch OLED. The price difference between the Switch OLED and the standalone Switch 2 now stands at a mere $50. But we found a deal that’s worth checking out for those who don’t want to spend anywhere near $400 for a Switch OLED. Woot is still offering the Sw

Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses sales triple as EssilorLuxottica doubles down on wearables

EssilorLuxottica, Meta’s partner in the smart glasses market and owner of brands such as Ray-Ban and Oakley, just reported stronger-than-expected quarterly revenue, driven in part by rising demand for the Ray-Ban Meta. Here’s the breakdown. In its quarterly results, EssilorLuxottica reported a 7.3% revenue increase, beating a Bloomberg-compiled analyst estimate of 5.9%. It is worth mentioning that at current exchange rates, however, revenue rose by just 3.2%, reflecting the impact of a stronger

Faraday Future is back with another wild EV that probably will never get made

theverge.com Peter Nelson 2026-01-06 03:28:41

Ask anyone who’s familiar with EV startups what Faraday Future is, and words like vaporware or severely delayed might come to mind. That’s because, in the brand’s 11-year existence, it has seemingly overpromised and under-delivered on nearly everything it has ever announced. As reported by Autoweek, it has sold less than 20 of its luxury FF 91 full-size EVs since it debuted two years ago — mostly to investors and celebrity influencers. Last week, Faraday revealed its latest model, the FX Super

Touching the back wall of the Apple store

Touching the back wall of the Apple store 23 Jun, 2025 Here's a dumb story. When I was in high school, my friends and I had a game we used to play at the mall: we would go into the Apple store and try to make it to the back wall of the store, touch it, and exit out the front without an Apple staff person talking to us. We were fascinated with the Apple store in the mall because it was essentially an interactive luxury goods store where they'd let you actually grasp all the luxury goods with y

New space startup Lux Aeterna wants to make satellites reusable

techcrunch.com Sean O'Kane 2026-02-25 08:00:00

Satellites can accomplish incredible tasks like provide internet, or help monitor wildfires. But many of them ultimately meet a fiery death burning up in the Earth’s atmosphere. Others use their last bit of fuel to move to so-called “graveyard” orbits, where they circle the planet in a perpetual deep freeze. A new startup called Lux Aeterna wants to change this. The Denver-based company, which is coming out of stealth today, has designed a reusable satellite called Delphi that it aims to launch
