▸ Valve confirms the Steam Machine is actually shipping in 2026.
▸ DJI pays $30k to the guy who hacked 7,000 robot vacuums.
After a Supreme Court decision struck down sweeping presidential tariffs, Nintendo is looking for a refund. It's Mario Kart: Washington Drift, and the blue shell is a lawsuit.
Despite rumors of delays, Valve confirmed the Steam Machine, Frame, and Controller are shipping this year. We might get Half-Life 3 before we get a straight answer on release dates, but for now, the hardware is 'on track'.
NASA's massive rocket stage project has been scrapped, proving that even in space, budget cuts can hear you scream. It didn't get us closer to the Moon, but it definitely burned some cash.
The trading app's venture into startup funding hit a snag immediately upon launch. Turns out, democratizing finance is easy; democratizing venture capital returns is a bit harder.
In a move that has copyright lawyers salivating, Meta is arguing that training AI on books downloaded from BitTorrent is fair use. If this holds up, 'seeding' might just become the most valuable job skill of the decade.
Grammarly's new 'expert review' feature is offering advice inspired by subject matter experts—including some who are dead. Nothing says 'good writing' like ghostwriting from actual ghosts without their consent.
Planet Labs stopped showing images of Iranian attacks on US bases to prevent 'Battle Damage Assessment' by adversaries. It's a stark reminder that commercial satellites are now active participants in the fog of war.
Forget regex find-and-replace; Ki operates directly on the Abstract Syntax Tree. It's like doing surgery with a scalpel instead of a chainsaw, allowing for structural editing that actually understands your code.
GitHub released an open-source framework to scan for vulnerabilities using AI agents. It's particularly good at finding Auth Bypasses and Token Leaks, which is great because humans are particularly bad at finding them.
The open-source GIS powerhouse hits version 4.0. If you like maps, spatial data, or just making beautiful visualizations without paying a licensing fee the size of a small country's GDP, this is for you.
A researcher found he could control 7,000 vacuums with a PlayStation controller. DJI paid him a bounty, presumably to stop him from organizing the cleanest robot uprising in history.
Paleontologists found a Spinosaurus with a unique head spike. It's part unicorn, part crocodile, and 100% proof that evolution was just throwing things at the wall to see what stuck.
