PlayStation 5 rereview: A smaller console with a bigger game library

With over 60 million PS5s sold, Sony is so far dominating this generation of game consoles. Four years since the PlayStation 5 debuted, the company has rounded out its gaming lineup with the refined PS5 Slim (both with and without a disc drive) and the more powerful (and expensive) PS5 Pro.

Formovie Cinema Edge review: A midrange UST projector that lags behind its rivals

Formovie’s Theater took the projector world by storm when it first arrived, offering a triple laser, 150-inch ultra short throw (UST) image and Dolby Vision for $3,000. That was a relatively unheard of price for such a feature set, especially from a brand that hardly anyone knew about.

GPT is far likelier than other AI models to fabricate quotes by public figures, our analysis shows
