When’s the last time you saw a dual-GPU video card? Probably back around Computex, when MAXSUN was quietly showing off its Intel Arc Pro B60 Dual, which is exactly what it sounds like: two Arc Pro B60s, replete with their own 24GB of GDDR6 memory, on a single card.

Not to be outdone by Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days event that kicks off this Tuesday, Best Buy is holding a sales bonanza of its own.

Fed up with Amazon Prime’s same-day delivery promise? How about this for an alternative: a Los Angeles-based startup is aiming for same-hour, anywhere on Earth logistics thanks to its prototype Arc spacecraft. Think space shuttle, but autonomous and much smaller.

Instagram CEO Adam Mosseri took to his platform to “myth bust” claims that the Meta-owned app is listening to user’s microphones for the purpose of pushing targeted advertisements and related content.
