After steamrolling through the first few months of 2017 with one of the most impressive streaks of quality game releases in recent memory, the onslaught of games for the PS4 has finally slowed down. It's given gamers a chance to catch their breath before the holiday season, but if you're desperate for more games, you can always depend on the PlayStation Plus free games of the month.

In an effort to out-do the FCC in this month's "who can ruin the internet" competition, Google is testing auto-playing videos in search results. Search Engine Land has confirmed that Google is running a "small experiment" in which "videos automatically play in the knowledge panel" immediately to the right of search results. This is roughly equivalent to your dog running a "small experiment" to see which of your furniture coverings is the most delicious. Continue reading...

Do you talk to yourself? If you don't, and you're stressed out, it might be something to consider. New research shows that, despite the stigma and social awkwardness of talking out loud to nobody but yourself, the act of doing so is actually beneficial to your mental wellbeing, especially if you're looking to control emotions and calm your mind — but there's a catch.

Rather than auto-playing Netflix episode after episode from your couch or bed, you should exercise while you’re binging. That would be a healthier way to watch your favorite shows without feeling guilty, but it’s also easier said than done. What if there was a way to force you to exercise to be able to stream Netflix, though? Continue reading...

Amazon's plans to use drones to deliver your purchases is moving along swiftly, with the company having already tested the system both abroad and here in the US, but once the retail giant has blocked out the sun with flocks of its fancy delivery bots it's going to need a plan to sell you even more stuff. If a newly granted patent is any indication, Amazon is already planning a strategy to use the information about your home gathered by its drones to pitch you more products. Continue reading...

There’s only one top-tier Android phone that I’d advise you not to buy this year, and that’s the OnePlus 5. The new #NeverSettle phone has been plagued by controversies from the moment the Chinese company launched it, and it looks like OnePlus isn’t done giving you reasons not to buy the phone just yet.

Tesla’s Model 3 is one of the most exciting cars coming to a street near you in the immediate future. How soon the Model 3 will actually hit roads is something Tesla is yet to explain, and it's not just you.

For you and I, the upcoming total solar eclipse on August 21st will be a pretty stunning spectacle — as long as the weather cooperates and you're in a position to catch it as it unfolds — but for NASA scientists it's also a fantastic opportunity to conduct some research. If you're in the right spot for the eclipse, you'll get a fantastic view of the sun's corona, and researchers are looking forward to the opportunity to observe and analyze it. But how do you conduct research when the actual eclipse event is so short? That's a problem NASA's "eclipse jets" are going to solve. Continue reading...

Sending astronauts to Mars and beyond is something that's definitely on the minds of both NASA and other space agencies around the world, but before any scientific group can line up their budgets and make a real case for manned missions into deep space they need a feasible way to keep those travelers alive and well during their journey. In a newly-awarded contract with Lockheed Martin, NASA's very first deep space habitat will finally enter the prototyping stage, but not everything about the craft will be made from scratch.

Sorry, Apple fans, but at this point it looks like Apple might never actually make a touchscreen laptop. The Touch Bar on the MacBook Pro is pretty cool, but it’s nothing at all like having a screen that you can touch to manipulate things. Drawing, tapping, pinching to zoom, etc… it’s fast and easy, and yet you can’t do any of it on Apple laptops. At least, that used to be the case until the Neonode AirBar Touchscreen Sensor for Apple’s 13-inch MacBook Air came along. This awesome accessory attaches to your laptop just beneath the screen using magnets, so you can easily take it off and on again. When it’s attached, it senses any finger or stylus touches on your display an…

When a video game that unfolds in space has the likes of celebrity astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson behind it, the expectation is rightfully set that this is not a shoot-em-up or some kind of race against the clock to find a new planet to live on after earth has been destroyed. “Space Odyssey,” the game that Tyson and a creative team are in the process of bringing to fruition -- and crowdfunding -- is a slower, more cerebral title. The imperative is not defeating an enemy; it’s, quite simply, to venture out, to go beyond, to come across whatever you find and figure out how to live well among the stars. And, on the game maker side of the equation, to be as scientif…

Seriously, consider all the 1-star reviews from crazy people who give things horrible ratings because UPS delivered them a day late. 4.5 stars with that many reviews is practically unheard of, but the Cambridge SoundWorks OontZ Angle 3 Next Generation Bluetooth Speaker has managed to pull off that incredible feat.
