Elon Musk discovered a simple 30-second “fridge trick” that can reverse diabetes, but the discovery has spooked pharmaceutical companies so much they put a $78 million bounty on his head, forcing the Tesla CEO to flee the country. At least, that’s what a collection of AI-generated Facebook ads claim. Facebook ads depicting deepfakes of Elon Musk and Fox News personalities claiming that the Tesla CEO has discovered the cure for diabetes have been circulating on the platform for weeks. The ads see...

Apple today announced the next of its M4 Mac models, but how much better really is the M4 chip over its predecessor? The M4 chip debuted in the iPad Pro last year, promising around 20% faster performance than the M3 chip in both single and multi-core tasks. All of the key differences between the two chip generations are listed below: M3 Chip (2023–2025) M4 Chip (2024–2025) Made using TSMC's 3nm technology (N3) Made using TSMC's enhanced ‌3nm‌ technology (N3E) Based on iPhone 15 Pro's A17 Pro chi...

The Sarcophagus Key opens a locked coffin hidden in the Garden area of Avowed. As you’re exploring the Garden, you may come across the sarcophagus with the key nowhere in sight, or find the key and wonder where the sarcophagus is located. Regardless of the order you find them in, there is legendary loot that...

Cities Skylines. Crusader Kings. Surviving Mars. Over the years, Paradox has either developed or published some of the most beloved strategy hits on PC. However, with the emergence of Manor Lords and the arrival of Civilization 7, competition is heating up, and now a new label, founded by Paradox veterans who have since left the studio, is also throwing its hat in the proverbial ring. You’ve perhaps heard of Kaiserpunk, the alternate-history, WW1-inspired city builder and grand strategy hybrid. ...

Playing with power. You're probably familiar with Taki Udon's work by now. The modder had previously managed to implement an OLED screen into the Switch Lite, and proceeded to sell the 'Super5' installation kits on the RetroRemake website. Now, however, with the help of fellow modder @AzkaliManad, the pair have gone one step further with their Switch Lite upgrades, implementing an OLED panel into the device that outputs at 1080p.

Wizards of the Coast is transforming its next Dungeons & Dragons starter set to be even more friendly to beginners, and to better hook its claws into them with the hope that they’ll develop a deeper love for the game. The new boxed Starter Set: Heroes of the Borderlands, coming out in September, includes several...

The catch? It's still a concept, for now...

I wasn’t impressed by the last pair of Technics earbuds I reviewed. The AZ70W was the first set to carry the iconic turntable brand’s logo after Panasonic relaunched it in 2014. The 2020 model did some things well for $250, but inconsistent audio performance kept them from being a serious contender. The company followed up in 2021 with two more wireless earbud options, and 2023’s AZ80 was well-regarded by many reviewers for its sound quality. For its 2025 model, Technics dug into its bag of tric...

A long time ago, I read somewhere that the cells in our bodies turn over every seven years, shedding and regenerating into effectively a whole new version of ourselves on a biological level. While the truth is far more complicated, the sentiment of the claim remains: Be it on a cellular or experiential level, none...

In case regular KCD2 wasn't immersive enough for you.

A 3-inch Flamin’ Hot Cheeto shaped like Charizard sold for $87,840 at auction on Sunday. There were a total of 60 bids — the winning one was $72,000, upped to $87,840 with the auction house’s buyer’s premium. That’s a lot of dollars per inch!

[Ed. note: This post contains spoilers for Daredevil: Born Again’s first episode.] Knowing something is coming doesn’t make it any easier to accept when it happens. That’s how I felt watching Daredevil: Born Again kill off Foggy Nelson (Elden Henson) in the opening scene. There had long been rumors of Foggy’s demise, but I went...

The Humble bundle building team has detailed its March Choice collection of games, which includes Pacific Drive, Tales of Kenzera: Zau and Wild Hearts, to name three.

Following the introduction of new 13-inch and 15-inch MacBook Air models with M4 chips, Apple has discontinued the M2 and M3 variants on its online stores. Both models were available to buy new from Apple up until today. Apple launched the ‌M2‌ ‌MacBook Air‌ in July 2022, and the M3 ‌MacBook Air‌ became available in March 2024. Both laptops will likely remain available to buy from Apple through its online Refurbished store in the months to come. Apple does not provide a like-for-like performance...

Sonic, ATLUS and Like A Dragon all name dropped. SEGA has just released its latest financial report for Q3 of the current fiscal year, and the accompanying Q&A with company vice president Makoto Takahashi and director Nobuaki Yoshii gives a neat little insight about what the team has planned for the future (thanks, VGC). After what has been a pretty busy 12 months for SEGA, releasing the likes of Super Monkey Ball Banana Rumble, Sonic X Shadow Generations, Yakuza Kiwami, Metaphor: ReFantazio, an...

Heartbreak is one thing, Google's ego another.

WiFi Wars, a live comedy game show spin-off from telly programme Go 8 Bit, is soon coming to a venue that's probably quite near you.

Apple today unveiled the M3 Ultra chip, its fastest Mac chip ever released. It is available in the new Mac Studio that was also announced today. The new M3 Ultra chip features up to a 32-core CPU, with 24 performance cores and eight efficiency cores. Apple says the M3 Ultra chip is up to 1.5x faster than the M2 Ultra chip, and up to 1.8x faster than the M1 Ultra chip.

The March Humble Choice games are here, and there are some real hidden gems for Steam Deck among them. While there is an absence of any triple-A big hitters in this month's lineup, the selection of smaller or indie games is ideal for Valve's handheld. All but one of this month's games are rated verified or playable for the best handheld gaming PC, but even the one game that is classed as "Unsupported" still works great after a few settings tweaks. The Steam Deck continues to be a leader in the h...

Activision has announced Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 + 4, a new remaster collection that comes complete with a Doom-laden surprise.

Apple's new MacBook Air doesn't try to reinvent the wheel: It still comes in 13- and 15-inch sizes, starts with 16GB of RAM and offers up to 18 hours of battery life. But a few spec bumps — headlined by the faster M4 chip — paired with a cheaper price tag could still make it worth a look if your older model is starting to show its age. Here's everything you need to know about the M4 MacBook Air. The 13-inch MacBook Air now starts at $999, while its 15-inch counterpart begins at $1,199. (Both cos...

Jensen Huang made a startling claim about the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 when he paraded its talents at CES in January 2025. This $549 gaming GPU, said Huang, was as fast as the mighty RTX 4090, thanks to the magic of Nvidia’s new multi frame gen tech with DLSS 4. There were echoes of when the RTX 3070 was genuinely as fast as the RTX 2080 Ti when it came out, but this time it’s all down to AI wizardry rather than raw rendering power. Nvidia has bet the house on AI for its current generation of RTX...

Apple today announced refreshed 13- and 15-inch MacBook Air models, now featuring the M4 chip.

Breathe out, untense your muscles, and relax, because after years of being lost in the wilderness AMD has finally come up with a decent GPU for an amazing price. I don’t have to reach for obscure use cases to suggest scenarios where the new AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT is actually worth buying, because this time AMD has genuinely come up with the goods, with a graphics card that largely beats Nvidia at its own game. It might not have an equivalent of Nvidia’s latest multi frame gen tech at its disposal...

Roku is continuing its relationship with Phillips, with the launch of a new cross-branded television. The Phillips OLED Roku TV is available starting today and retails starting at $1,299 online and in stores at Sam's Club. The 65-inch screen has a 4K UHD display and OLED technology, which has become pretty standard for a premium TV model. It's also equipped with Dolby Vision IQ, which adjusts picture quality settings based on the current lighting setup. And this Phillips OLED Roku TV includes a ...

AMD has finally done it. For years it's tried to undercut NVIDIA with slightly cheaper, but less capable, video cards like the Radeon 6700 XT and 7900 XT. And sure, it's still following that same strategy with the new Radeon 9070 and 9070 XT. This time around, though, AMD has produced far more capable hardware, especially when it comes to 4K and ray tracing performance. And there's hope that it could finally catch up to NVIDIA's DLSS AI upscaling with its new FidelityFX Super Resolution 4 (FSR4)...

Apple has introduced its latest update to the MacBook Air, bringing the M4 chip to its lightweight laptops at long last. Even though the Air lineup is getting more powerful, it's also getting cheaper. The smaller base model of the M4 MacBook Air will retail at $999, down $100 from the previous starting price. Pre-orders begin today, and the machines will be available starting on March 12. Last year's Air models were quite good but didn't do anything revolutionary, and the same seems true for the...

AMD's walking the walk on pricing and performance, it's now up to the AIBs to not let the side down.

Apple just unveiled its latest Mac Studio desktop PC promising improved performance over the previous model thanks to the long awaited M3 Ultra, the company's highest performing processor to date. The new machine is primarily aimed at content creators, so on top of the faster chips, it offers the latest high-speed SSD storage, Thunderbolt 5 technology and an updated Neural Engine.  It's been a bit of a wait for a new Mac Studio as the last one came out at WWDC 2023, nearly two years ago. As befo...

In four weeks' time... In exactly four weeks, we're all going to know more about Switch 2 - hopefully a lot more. Wednesday 2nd April is the day of Switch 2 Direct when Nintendo lifts the lid on its upcoming console and gives us a much better idea of what's in store beyond the initial reveal. Will we get a release date? Are there hardware secrets that haven't leaked already? Are we going to see more games, perchance? What are you expecting/hoping to see?

The lore of League of Legends is like a massive painting in progress. Some parts of the world are broad brushstrokes, enough to give you a general idea without greater detail. Others have been revisited again and again in different mediums, like comics, animation, and cinematics, expanding the lore through the various lenses and perspectives....

Before I tested the Radeon RX 9070 and RX 9070 XT, I wondered just what else AMD could try. After all, we've seen good performance, competitive pricing and even gigantic cost reductions on legacy cards to improve their value, yet AMD still makes up a fraction of the discrete graphics card market according to the Steam Hardware Survey. What makes RDNA 4 any different?

Sony has released a new PS3 system software update almost nine years after the console was discontinued, although it's a pretty small one.
