Steam might be the near default choice for finding and buying games on PC, but Valve isn’t resting on its laurels, as it’s implementing improvements to the user experience. Thanks to the insight the company gets from its user surveys, it knows that gamers have screens with plenty of pixels to spare, and this update takes advantage of that

That’s right: another Windows feature update is coming, but don’t worry, because you probably won’t get this one. Windows 11 26H1 is actually already available to Windows 11 Insiders on the “Canary” channel, which is the most bleeding-edge release of Windows 11. What features does this update bring? A few fixes for issues that only exist in

Instead of a triumphant touchdown, China held its breath as the three-member crew of its latest long-duration Shenzhou-20 mission remained orbiting the Earth, their return indefinitely delayed by an unforeseen threat: a cloud of fast-moving orbital debris. After initial silence over the matter, state media has now declared that what was supposed

Who would have guessed that Apple would eventually become a strong value play in the laptop space? Sure, there are some decked-out MacBook Pro laptops that command a hefty premium, but there are also far more cheaper options that offer a lot of bang for your buck, especially as we head into the Black Friday shopping season. Just look at discounted

Leaked CAD renders, circulating after the apparent cancellation of the ultra-slim Galaxy S26 Edge, show Samsung returning to the stalwart Plus variant, this time sporting a different camera module design. For awhile now, Galaxy S phones have had an almost flush camera setup with individual lenses protruding from the backplate. Now, the Galaxy

Storage prices may be on the rise (boo!), but flagship solid state drives are also getting faster (hooray!). We’ve seen a handful of new SSDs push the envelope lately, and Silicon Power’s new XPower XS90 Gen 5 SSD joins the bunch with blazing-fast sequential read speeds of up to 14,300MB/s (14.3GB/s) and sequential writes of up to 13,400MB/s

Apple is once again pitching a pricey slab of cloth for iPhone owners, this time in collaboration with ISSEY MIYAKE, a Japanese fashion brand. The new iPhone Pocket, as it’s called, is “a piece of cloth” designed to fit any iPhone, though there’s nothing stopping you from shoving a Samsung Galaxy phone or Google Pixel handset inside. Well,

Possibly the most absurd truth of modern computing is that, as far as the technology has evolved, we’re fundamentally still doing the exact same thing we were doing decades ago: twiddling bits. The question, of course, has always been how fast we can twiddle those bits, and how many we can do at once. Because it’s still the same work, though,

Security researchers have found several alarming security flaws in tooling used by containerization tool Docker that allows attackers to attack the host machine. The flaws specifically relate to runC, which Docker describes as the “infrastructure plumbing” that makes it such a useful tool for developers.

RunC is a universal container runtime

The idea that AMD’s Zen 6 would support AVX-512 in some fashion has never really been in question, to tell the truth. With native 512-bit vector datapaths and a nearly-complete AVX-512 implementation, AMD’s Zen 5 already has the strongest AVX-512 support on client systems, but it does seem like Zen 6 is poised to expand that support considerably.

The compact PC world may just have been given a good shake up with Minisforum’s new MS-R1, a mini workstation with server-grade Arm performance in an expandable desktop form factor. But hold up, the machine is also being hailed as the first of its kind in the world to support UEFI boot. With UEFI, the MS-R1 makes it as simple to install and

Sleigh bells ring, are you listening? In the lane, snow is glistening. A beautify sight, we’re happy tonight, walking in a Black Friday wonderland. Wait, that’s not how the song goes. However, it IS how the season goes this time of year as retailers hurl deals at pace faster than Elf (Will Ferrell version) can chuck snowballs. And right now,

At the season-ending Lamborghini World Finals at the Misano World Circuit Marco Simoncelli, Lamborghini’s Squadra Corse division unveiled the design concept for the Temerario Super Trofeo, the new track weapon set to take over the Super Trofeo championships in 2027. This sixth model in the series marks a historic transition, as it replaces

Google and Disney remain embroiled in a contract dispute that is preventing YouTube TV subscribers from accessing a litany of Disney-owned channels, including ABC, ESPN, FX, National Geographic, and several others. In the wake of the ongoing dispute, YouTube TV has begun sending out emails promising a $20 credit within the next few days. But

Apple is reportedly planning to amp up the iPhone’s satellite features from solely as an emergency-only lifeline into a connected device that keeps key features in certain major apps running: think Starlink-like connectivity for Apple Maps or WhatsApp, but with everything built into your next iPhone. If all goes as planned, this future expansion

Samsung is showing off a couple of new storage products that it plans to showcase at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in January 2026, one of which is a cleverly designed solid state drive (SSD) with a modular aspect to it. Called the Detachable AutoSSD, the drive takes aim at automobiles and sports a modular makeup to make upgrades a little

Based on some odd Steam Sale timing and a giant gap between them in November, which seems characteristic for Valve when it wants to showcase a product, the studio’s most dedicated fans believe that Half-Life 3 or Valve’s next-gen Steam Frame / Deckard VR headset, may be announced later this month. A Redditor on the r/ValveDeckard subreddit

You know what time it is, right? It’s time to shop early Black Friday deals with retailers getting a jump on the annual sale event. If it’s also time to get a new smartwatch, you’re in luck. The Apple Watch Series 10 is back down to an all-time low price. And remember those MacBook Air deals we highlighted a few days ago? Those are still available

Have you seen the ASUS ROG Matrix GeForce RTX 5090 card? Yes you have; it’s right above this text. The new high-end graphics card from the halo-tier Matrix series has a striking design that we’d assume was a Radeon GPU if not for the obvious GEFORCE RTX branding on the backplate. This is a 30th Anniversary edition of the company’s graphics

Just days before Rockstar Games announced another delay of Grand Theft Auto VI, the company also fired between 30 and 40 employees—and according to claims made by a current Rockstar developer (verified by GTAForums moderators as well as The Independent Workers’ Union of Great Britain), this was an act of union busting. While some rumors suggest
