Blade Runner Enhanced Edition – Graphical ComparisonIf you’d like to know more about how the ScummVM version came together (its github page is here), and just how much work the team of fans put in only to have their version now making money for someone else, Fach-Pedersen explains: I started working in reverse engineering Blade
Wordle isn’t getting easier. Keeping a streak alive is tough! Start words are important: “ADIEU” is popular, since it includes four vowels, though game designer Tyler Glaiel suggests the mathematically optimal first guess is “ROATE,” which isn’t a word I’d heard of (Merriam-Webster informs me it’s an obsolete spelling of “rote”). On the day that the wordle
Stranger Things season four still has a few episodes left! Set six months after the gang’s showdown with the Mind Flayer at season 3’s climax, season 4 takes the cast and spreads them across four different locations, including Russia and California. It’s been awesome so far. It’s not just the cast that’s spread out, but so is
There are only a few disappointments, and they’re minor. It doesn’t quite have the color or razor-sharp detail of its direct competitor, the LG HU810P. That’s not to say the 5050 isn’t sharp and colorful. It is, just a bit less so — although I liked the Epson’s overall picture quality a lot more than

For years AEW stars like Chris Jericho have referenced the forbidden door: the tantalizing idea that All Elite Wrestling could work with New Japan Pro Wrestling, one of the biggest promotions in the world. That dream becomes a reality on Sunday with the aptly named Forbidden Door pay-per-view, which will see the biggest stars of
Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness hit theaters last Friday, with director Sam Raimi returning to Marvel for the first time since his Spider-Man trilogy wrapped up in 2007. An encounter with new hero America Chavez (Xochitl Gomez) forces the former Sorcerer Supreme to step outside the familiar Marvel Cinematic Universe and explore other realities,
A sophisticated spyware campaign is getting the help of internet service providers (ISPs) to trick users into downloading malicious apps, according to research published by Google’s Threat Analysis Group (TAG) (via TechCrunch).

From time to time, I’ll grab a random device out of the Verge reviews closet and spend a week or two with it. It’s mostly out of random curiosity and for the sake of comparing “old” products against the latest and greatest. Most recently, I was drawn to Google’s Pixel 5. So I gave it
Charging infrastructure may be more consequential to the adoption of electric cars than innovation in the cars themselves: Having more places to charge more quickly can play prominently in drivers’ experience with and perception of EVs. But creating a vast network of plentiful fast charging isn’t a trivial effort, as EV haters like to point
Just as one company’s success shouldn’t cast a halo on its vertical’s brethren, one company’s layoffs don’t quite mean that its competitors are equally screwed. Instead, I think that changes within a particular startup can be used as benchmark questions for their larger market; in other words, we can use the micro to better understand
The 2022 Ford Maverick blew me away like lawn furniture in a hurricane. Including destination fees, this back-to-basics compact truck starts at less than $22,000, making it an unbelievable value. But the Maverick’s greatness isn’t exclusively a function of that low starting price: It’s an all-around excellent vehicle and a groundbreaking product. With a simple,
“Stephen Strange, the Illuminati will see you now,” says Karl Mordo in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, ahead of an encounter with a mysterious group of Marvel Cinematic Universe heroes.

In the wake of the Supreme Court’s decision on Friday to overturn Roe v. Wade, Google’s chief people officer Fiona Cicconi sent a staff-wide email to employees on Friday informing them of Google’s response to the ruling.

The news that funding for Black founders is falling was no shock to the Black community, much of which was raised with the aphorism, “when white America catches a cold, Black America gets pneumonia.” U.S. startups received VC funding of around $75 billion in Q1 and about $50 billion so far in Q2, despite investors pulling back and
As a veteran startup worker who has been laid off during economic downturns, it’s dissonant to hear investors say this is a good time to launch a software company. They’re not wrong, however. An analogy: In California, nearly 10,000 wildfires burned more than 4 million acres two years ago, causing billions of economic damage and
Netflix, for years, was notoriously tight-lipped about its viewership. But after a few years of dropping stats for some of its programming each quarter, Netflix launched a website in mid-November posting charts of its most popular shows and movies from the past week, as well as a global ranking of its all-time most watched titles. The charts, which

Frederik Mijnhardt Contributor Frederik Mijnhardt is the CEO of Secfi, an equity planning platform for startup executives and employees. Last year was a great one for startups. It was a record year for companies going public, valuations for pre-IPO companies were skyrocketing, and fundraising also shattered records. But 2022 is going to be quite different.
Showtime is an unofficial zine featuring the characters Joker and Crow from Atlus’ popular RPG Persona 5.

Even in its midtier XLT trim, the 2022 Ford Maverick Hybrid’s design speaks to the point of the truck: simplicity.
