No points for guessing this one in advance. The morning of the official retail launch for Nvidia’s next-gen GeForce RTX 50-series graphics cards, they’re almost impossible to actually order at online stores in the United States just an hour after the sales began. Since lines were seen forming days ago at brick-and-mortar retailers, it’s safe to assume a similar situa

Microsoft has launched business versions of its Surface Laptop (7th Edition) as well as the Surface Pro (11th Edition) with Intel’s Core Ultra 200 (Lunar Lake) processors inside, offering business customers a choice between x86 and Windows on Arm.

For the past five years running, I’ve written an annual check-in on ATSC 3.0 (or “NextGen TV”), the broadcast standard that’s supposed to greatly improve over-the-air TV. Every year, it’s been a story of baby steps.
As 2025 gets underway, that story hasn’t really changed. While ATSC 3.0 is starting to deliver more of what it initially promised—most notably

Say what you will about Netflix’s industry practices and mishandling of original content, but you can’t deny that the streaming service has lots of highly bingeable shows still in its library — especially when you use a VPN to access region-locked content fro

Suspected signal integrity losses have forced reviewers to switch to PCIe Gen 4.0.

Facebook's heavy-handed censoring of Linux groups and topics was made 'in error,' the social media juggernaut has admitted.

If there are two things Netflix has been pushing over the last couple years its live sports and games. A large part of this initiative has come through its partnership with WWE to stream live shows. But, starting fall 2025, Netflix subscribers will also be getting exclusive access to WWE 2K video games on mobile.
The WWE 2K series first launched 25 years ago and has remained extremely popular. Now, the organization is leaning further into its partnership with Ne

In November, Transport for London (TfL) announced new steps to regulate e-bikes, but a lack of legislation or power meant that most of the onus fell to e-bike services to do the right thing. Now, Lime CEO Wayne Ting has announced a £20 million ($24.8 million) five-point London Action Plan to help with overcrowding and poor parking,

What a difference a year makes. When Microsoft announced the Surface Pro 10 and Laptop 6 for Business last March, it almost seemed as if the company was giving up on the consumer PC market entirely. Of course, just a few months later, we got the new
