As a culmination to a multi-year National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) investigation, EV manufacturer Tesla is recalling over two million of its Autopilot-equipped vehicles sold in the US. This large-scale summons is meant to safeguard against further accidents, which have led to numerous fatalities.

When the USB4 specification emerged several years ago, it was quickly positioned as a less expensive alternative to the Thunderbolt 3 technology which ruled the market of high-performance direct-attached storage (DAS) devices and docking stations. Since then, we’ve seen multiple USB4 docks hit the market, but USB4 DASes and SSDs are still rare. Thankfully, the situation began to change in the recent weeks, as multiple vendors have finally begun releasing their own USB4 SSDs and external drive enclosures.
Adata announced its first SE920 External USB4 SSD back in August 2021, but it only started shipping these drives in October. Adata’s SE920 External SSDs offer capacities of 1 TB or 2 TB, along with a sequential read speed rating of up to 3.8 GB/s as well as a sequential write speed of up to 3.7 MB/s when working with a USB4 host. Otherwise, the drive is rated for 3.20 GB/s on Thunderbolt hosts, due to the greater overhead of the Thunderbolt protocol.
One interesting feature of the Adata SE920 External USB4 SSD is that it comes with a ‘telescoping’ case that allows to activate its internal fan for better heat dissipation. Such design allows to better ensure consistent performance under high loads, which is set to be particularly useful when transferring large volumes of data. Meanwhile, like other modern SSDs, the SE920 uses pseudo-SLC caching, which means that it demonstrates its maximum performance only while there is spare SLC-cache.
Adata’s drive looks like a very decent product overall, and it’s priced very competitively with other high-performance drives on the market, with Adata charging around $150 for the 1 TB version and $200 for the 2 TB version.
Meanwhile, for the DIY crowd that wants to build their own USB4 SSDs, standalone USB4 enclosures are finally available as well. OWC’s Express 1M2 enclosure is based on the ASMedia ASM2464PD USB4/Thunderbolt to NVMe bridge, and is compatible with virtually any NVMe M.2-2280 SSD.
The enclosure supports sequential read/write speeds of up to 3,151 MB/s, as well as capacities up to 8 TB (the largest M.2 2280 drive capacity currently available). Mindful of how warm modern, high-end SSDs can get, the enclosure’s case acts like a huge heat sink, helping to keep those increasingly toasty SSDs cool.
On paper, OWC’s Express 1M2 DIY enclosure does not reach speeds quite as high as Adata’s SE920 SSD, so the extra capacity and ability to throw in any M.2 SSD you have lying around are the main selling points of the device. Pricing, on the other hand is a higher hurdle; OWC is charging $119.99 for the Express 1M2 enclosure on its own, and $219.99 for the enclosure with pre-installed 1 TB SSD.
Although OWC’s DIY USB4 SSD enclosure seems a bit overpriced, good news is that the company is not alone selling such devices. Stardom also has its UBOX-B4BP USB4 SSD enclosure that has the same feature set (e.g., compatibility with almost any M.2-2280 SSD and latest PCs), but it is slightly larger and its rated performance figures are up to 2,920 MB/s for writes and up to 3,214 MB/s for reads.
The enclosure allows building external USB4 storage solutions of up to 8 TB (and larger when such drives become available) that can work with both new and old PCs. Interestingly, Stardom has included a second USB-C connector on the enclosure solely for power purposes, allowing it to be used with an external power adapter if a host can’t provide enough bus power on its own.
Stardom yet has to start selling its its UBOX-B4BP USB4 SSD enclosure in the U.S. and Europe, but in Taiwan the product costs NT$3,990 ($120 without VAT), which is not exactly cheap.

Gamers don’t need 49 inches of QLED screen or 240 Hz of refresh rate to play their games, but it sure does make gaming more fun. And if you’re looking for a great gaming experience, consider Samsung’s Odyssey G9 for $849.99 ($1,399.99), which is matching its lowest price yet, according to Camelcamelcamel’s price history.
The Samsung Odyssey G9 gaming monitor is not for regular gamers; it’s for gamers who need to be extra. Curved monitors like this one mean your peripherals will be catching the edges of the screen (if you position the monitor correctly on your desk), giving you an immersive experience that only these monitors can deliver. And if you work from home and want to use the monitor for work, you can essentially use it as two separate screens by using two display port cables like in the video below. It’s also adjustable to match your preferred height and angle.
The monitor measures 49 inches from corner to corner, with an aspect ratio of 32:9, 240 Hz of refresh rate, and an Nvidia G-Sync with adaptive sync. It has a 5120 by 1440 resolution on a QLED screen with 1,000 nits of luminance, and a peak brightness of 193 candelas per square meter. (It’s very bright.) You get two USB ports, an HDMI display port, a headphone jack, and an ethernet port for faster internet connection. The Samsung Odyssey G9 is much cheaper than it was during its 2020 release date, mainly because of the Odyssey Neo G9, which, as the name implies, it’s the newer version. However, the Samsung Odyssey G9 is still a great gaming monitor for about half the price. You can read the full “excellent” review from PCMag here.

The Game Awards are done and the video game marketing machine is winding down for the year, but this industry never fully stops. This week, we’re taking a look at what The Game Awards could have done better (a few things, it turns out) and breaking down some of the biggest announcements from last week’s show.
We’re gonna talk about The Game Awards a lot this week, but one of the biggest announcements from last Thursday’s show was the existence of Light No Fire, a new title from No Man’s Sky studio Hello Games. It’s a planet-sized, multiplayer game about exploration and community-building, and it uses procedural generation to fill every valley and mountaintop with life. At least, that’s the promise. There’s no release date for Light No Fire just yet, but Hello Games has been working on it for five years.
Also at The Game Awards, we saw the reveal of a Blade game from Arkane Lyon, OD from Kojima Productions, Windblown from Dead Cells studio Motion Twin, and Exodus from Archetype Entertainment, a studio composed of BioWare, 343 and Naughty Dog veterans.
As for the awards, best narrative went to Alan Wake 2, best debut indie game went to Cocoon, and esports coach of the year went to Potter. Indie game Baldur’s Gate 3 won game of the year, while Sea of Stars won best independent game over Dave the Diver, a title that was never indie to begin with. Got it? Good. Moving on.
UK studio Free Radical Design, which was working on the TimeSplitters revival, laid off more than 80 people and shut its doors on Monday. It marks another round of layoffs under Embracer this year — the holding company announced in June that a $2 billion funding deal fell through, and it’s spent the last few months closing studios and firing staff at places including Saints Row developer Volition and Chorus maker Fishlabs.
The Game Awards last week ran for three hours, hosted by organizer Geoff Keighley. It was fancy and packed with movie stars — which, honestly, is pretty weird for a show that’s supposed to be about video games. Between abundant ad breaks, rushed speeches for winning developers, and ample stage time for celebrities, this year’s Game Awards didn’t feel like a celebration of the industry.
I’m not the only one who noticed the imbalance. After The Game Awards, plenty of developers, players and critics expressed displeasure with its pacing and priorities. Of the show’s 180 minutes, speeches from award winners took up just 10 minutes, and developers were prompted to ‘please wrap it up’ after just 30 seconds.
Meanwhile, Jordan Peele and Hideo Kojima were given nearly 7 minutes to talk about their upcoming project that looks like it’s more movie than game. There were appearances by Simu Liu, Matthew McConaughey and actors from TV shows based on video games. The Game of the Year award was presented by Timothee Chalamet, for some reason. Gonzo the Muppet even got 2 minutes.
Keighley rushed through most awards by reading the categories and winners directly into the camera back to back to back. Announcement trailers were indistinguishable from ad breaks, and there was no time spared for the industry’s most relevant issues, like the upheaval of mass layoffs, the fight to establish unions, and the medium’s relationship with conflicts in Ukraine and Gaza.
These topics would feel drastically out of place at The Game Awards, and that alone is an indictment of the show. If there’s no room to discuss, celebrate and condemn these topics at the industry’s most public-facing event, what are we even doing here?
The Game Awards organizers have done a great job replacing the embarrassment that was Spike’s VGX with a show that looks more like The Oscars — but the video game industry is not Hollywood. Where are our luminaries? What are our issues? How are we innovating? Making video games more like movies is not the goal — unless you’re Kojima, I guess.
There are a bunch of other events that give time to video game creators and broader conversations, such as the Game Developers Choice Awards and its Independent Game Festival competition, The Spawnies from Spawn on Me, Gamedev.world from Rami Ismail, and Day of the Devs. And there are always the showcases from indie publishers like Annapurna Interactive, Devolver Digital and Panic throughout the year. But with E3 officially dead, Keighley’s two big shows — Summer Game Fest and The Game Awards — are now the premier industry events on the gaming calendar. There’s a responsibility that comes with that position, and his organization clearly needs to strike a better balance.
It’s been a strangely stressful time, so I’ve been relaxing with couch co-op in Halo: The Master Chief Collection. It’s familiar and comfortable, and the toggle between old and new graphics is still an absolute delight.

More than 190 governments at the United Nations climate conference approved an agreement Wednesday calling for the world to transition away from fossil fuels, an accord that bridged differences between big energy-producing nations and countries that want to completely phase out coal, oil and natural gas. From a report: The deal, the result of all-night talks, calls for “transitioning away from fossil fuels in energy systems, in a just, orderly and equitable manner.” It says the shift to clean energy for the global economy should accelerate this decade with the aim of net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050.
Scientists say that is crucial to fulfilling the Paris accord, the landmark climate agreement that calls for governments to attempt to limit global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius above preindustrial temperatures. The deal marks the first time a U.N. climate agreement has called for governments to cut back on all fossil fuels.

A cleaning hack that enables you to do two things at once always seems like a good idea, so it’s no surprise that a new social media trend is catching on for its claim that you can make your home smell better while you vacuum. The problem is, the method suggested in the videos could actually damage your vacuum. Here’s what not to do if you want a clean, nice-smelling home.
The people in the videos mean well—who doesn’t want their home to smell good?—but the methods espoused in videos like this one, from Instagram Reels, are a bad idea. Basically, these cleaning influencers are telling you to moisten some cotton balls with essential oils, then put them in your vacuum bag or canister. In theory, when you use the vacuum, the scent of the oils will permeate the room as warm air rushes through the machine. While this trick does likely generate a nice smell, it’s not worth trying. Peruse the comments and you’ll see that some who have tried it report the oils have caused their vacuums to crack. That’s because essential oils are corrosive to plastic. Essential oil companies even recommend not storing oils in plastic containers for this reason—so you definitely don’t want any touching your expensive vacuum.
To be sure, I reached out to Dyson to ask about the trend. Monika Stuczen, a research scientist with the company, agrees that oils shouldn’t be put into any vacuums—but for more reasons than just their potential to damage the device: “As tempting as it may be to use scented sprays or essential oils to tackle odors from our carpet, we do not recommend introducing liquids unnecessarily, as [dampness provides the] potential for mold and bacteria to grow, causing it to develop odors over time.” Yes, this hack could ultimately make your house stinkier.
To stop odors from forming, Stuczen instead recommends the following:
Use a vacuum with powerful suction and make sure to go slow, giving the brushes time to penetrate deeply.
Go over the same spot multiple times (though more than two or three passes is overdoing it, according to Dyson’s lab research).
Tackle stains right away instead of waiting for them to dry, as they could attract bacteria that will smell.
Wipe down and dry your pets when entering the home to stop any of their dirt or moisture from embedding into your carpet.
If you’re looking for a new vacuum to get your carpets looking and smelling fresher, here are some great options.
Those are great tips on preventing odors, but if you were considering the essential oil hack, you’re looking for ways to make a room smell good. Instead, try the following:
Banish odors by placing a small bowl of vinegar in an unobtrusive corner, which can neutralize odor-causing molecules
Bake a dish of pure vanilla extract to introduce the smell to the air in your home
Place car vent air fresheners in the vents around your home
Before vacuuming, dust the floor with baking soda to help absorb odors. (You can also buy scented baking soda made specifically for this purpose.)

DEL MAR, Calif.—Americans love midsize SUVs—American automotive product planners, at any rate. These SUVs have supplanted sedans and station wagons as the family-mobile of choice, offering all the advantages of a hatchback with a lofty driving position. Now there’s a new one in town, an all-electric version of the Chevrolet Blazer. It’s not an EV conversion of the existing Blazer but a new model built on the same dedicated platform as the Cadillac Lyriq. After a few hours driving the new Blazer EV around the outskirts of San Diego, here’s what we’ve learned.
In time, the Blazer EV will be available in three trims (LT, RS, and SS) and in front-, rear-, and all-wheel drive configurations. But for now, Chevy is starting with the Blazer EV RS, available with either a single motor driving the rear wheels and a larger-capacity battery or an all-wheel drive variant with a smaller-capacity battery pack.
Chevy arranged for us to drive the $57,200 Blazer EV RS RWD first, so let’s start there. It uses a 102 kWh battery pack to achieve an EPA range of 324 miles (521 km), sending that energy to a 340 hp (254 kW), 325 lb-ft (440 Nm) permanent magnet electric motor.

The holidays are right around the corner and you might be a little more behind on your shopping than you’d like to admit. We don’t blame you — between family gatherings and the final work rush before PTO kicks in, it’s hard to find the time to go to a store to pick out presents. And once you get there, you could find half-empty shelves and very few choices. But that’s why we have the internet: you still have time to buy holiday gifts online.
USPS, UPS and FedEx have laid out their holiday shipping deadlines for 2023: Ship your items via USPS by December 16 to have them safely arrive before Christmas, while FedEx and UPS have deadlines of December 15 and December 18, respectively, for standard shipping. At this stage in the game, we recommend picking up small, affordable gifts that will ship quickly so you have plenty of time to wrap them up nicely and make it look like you had everything well-planned from the start. Here are the best last-minute Christmas gifts you can get right now and still have in time before the holidays.
Regulators in the UK are weighing a cap on some of the fees that Visa and Mastercard charge local merchants for each card transaction, seeking to rein in charges that have risen fivefold since Brexit. From a report: After a monthslong review, the UK’s Payment Systems Regulator said it’s concerned that the payment giants have no effective competition, especially when it comes to the interchange fees they charge UK merchants when a consumer carrying a card issued by a bank in the European Economic Area makes an online purchase.
For now, the PSR is proposing to restore those fees to the pre-Brexit levels of 0.3% of a purchase price for credit cards and 0.2% for debit cards. For credit cards, those fees have risen in recent years to as high as 1.5% and the PSR estimated that the increases cost UK businesses as much as $250 million last year. The two companies have been under fire from a bevy of regulators and lawmakers around the world for the fees they charge. While it usually amounts to just pennies per purchase, the fees do add up: US merchants spent a record $160.7 billion on swipe fees last year, up 16.7% from 2021, according to the Nilson Report, an industry publication.

My neighbors and friends have nailed the perfect gift for me that’s good for any occasion year-round: a gift certificate to the local garden center. I’m an adult who knows what I want, and a gift certificate means I get to go on a shopping spree at the place all my money goes anyways. If you’re shopping for a gardener and want to really dazzle them, let me, a lifelong gardener, give you some guidance.
Vegetable gardeners, flower gardeners, everyone loves a hod—a fancy name for a type of basket—and if they already have one, they’d certainly love a second one. Better than the regular baskets, boxes, or bowls gardeners sometimes wander around the garden with to collect things, a hod is made specifically for that purpose. Sturdy, weather and water resistant, these garden carriers are always handy and beautiful.
Burpee’s Garden Hod ($69.95)
Large Modern Hod ($32.99)
Customizable Hod ($65)
Every year, tons of new gardening books hit the shelves: Books on better ways to garden, how to make money at it, and more artistic books that focus on the color, intention, and the zen of gardening. Like eye candy for people who love to dig, these books are great this time of year to inspire us as we suffer through the cold, garden-less months. Here are some of the best from 2023. Also consider audiobooks for those gardeners who prefer to listen as they putter about the yard.
A Year Full of Veg: A Harvest for All Seasons by Sarah Raven ($15.13)
The Cut Flower Sourcebook: Exceptional Perennials and Woody Plants for Cutting by Rachel Siegfried ($42.90)
Resilient Garden: Sustainable Gardening for a Changing Climate by Tom Massey ($29.99)
Garden: Exploring the Horticultural World by Phaidon ($64.95)
Why Women Grow: Stories of Soil, Sisterhood and Survival by Alice Vincent ($24.23)
Don’t overthink this. If you know your recipient’s favorite seed house, bulb house, or local nursery, just get them the gift that lets them choose on their own. If you don’t know their favorite spots, consider these.

Not all gardeners are bird nuts, but every single gardener loves a pollinator, so the gift of mason bees is almost always going to be appreciated. These aren’t full bee hives; mason bees are an essential part of every single garden and don’t require much care from the gardener. Consider these gift sets from Crown Bees, my favorite outpost for responsible solitary bees. The actual gift you’ll give this time of year is the bee house itself, but that includes free mason bees that are delivered later, in the spring. Be sure to only buy bee houses from reputable places; there are tons of low end versions that can be harmful to solitary bees.
Bee chalet with bees ($89.95)
Bee cabana with bees ($59.95)
Felco pruners are the Manolos of gardening. Expensive (for a pair of shears) and beautiful, they come in many models. Most gardeners know the number of their favorite model, likely after having tried it out at their local garden center. If you know your recipient’s model, this is a gorgeous gift idea. If not, consider a gift certificate so they can get the one they want—or choose one of these models, which are always welcome.
Left-handed pruners: Felco 9, Felco 10, Felco 16, Felco 17 ($64-84)
For wrist issues: Felco 7 ($89.12)
In addition to all of the lovely gift ideas above, I think it’s important to flag a few potentially problematic gift ideas you might be considering. The intention is surely admirable, but let me explain why the following ideas are worth a skip.
You wouldn’t buy an interior decorator a roll of wallpaper, and gardeners similarly have very specific ideas about how their yard should look. Unless you know your recipient really well, skip the gnomes and funny garden ephemera. If, however, you know your recipient loves garden spheres or chimes, then your addition to their collection will likely be well-received.
Wildflower seed mixes or packets of seeds might make sense as a gift giver, but unless your recipient is a very new gardener or one who has specifically noted they want seeds, this is not a great idea. If you save your own seeds from a plant you’ve grown or one you see out in the world and want to share those, however, that would be a very touching gift.
Birdhouses can often attract squirrels and other garden creatures that can cause garden havoc. Unless you know the very specific kind your gardening friend likes, let them buy their own.

With AMD’s recent launch of their Zen 4 architecture-based Threadripper 7000 series CPUs, the company and its OEM partners have unleashed a new wave of high-end PCs and workstations based on the considerable-core-count processors. Though not a massive market in and of itself, the workstation market is by most respects the pinnacle of the PC market, with systems employing the biggest and fastest hardware available, and often a whole lot of it. As a result, the workstation market is still a very important one to PC OEMs and chip vendors who are looking to move big silicon for big prices – but it’s also a fun one for consumers to watch, if only for a glimpse of what all of this PC hardware is capable of in its most powerful configurations.
As Threadripper Pro 7000 workstations are now shipping, we’re finally getting our first look at AMD’s premiere workstation silicon. Unlike AMD’s vanilla Threadripper 7000 processors, which we reviewed last month, for their top-end Pro silicon AMD is letting their OEM partners take the lead in showcasing their latest wares. With virtually all workstation-grade CPUs sold to OEMs, self-built workstations aren’t really a thing. At the same time, good workstation hardware it in a class of its own, not just with chips but with regards to the entire package – and all of which AMD’s OEM partners are eager to show off. Which for today’s review, means we get to do something we don’t get to do very often at AnandTech, and take a look at a proper, high-end workstation.
For our first look at the Threadripper Pro 7000 series hardware, today we are taking a look at a fully-fledged workstation from HP’s Z6 range, the HP Z6 G5 A. The HP Z6 G5 A system we have in for review today includes the Ryzen Threadripper Pro 7995WX with 96C/192T, with 128 GB of DDR5-5200 RDIMM (8 x 32 GB), as well as NVIDIA’s RTX A4000 single-slot graphics card designed for AI-accelerated compute and high-performance real-time ray tracing. With such a high-end specification, we’re putting the HP Z6 G5 A up against Intel’s flagship Xeon W9-3495X (56C/112T) workstation processor and AMD’s non-Pro Ryzen Threadripper 7000 series processors.
