Bungie just announced that the first game in the original trilogy has surprise-dropped on Steam, and it’s available on both Mac and PC. Even better, you can play it for free.

The game is actually credited to Aleph One Developers, which is described as an “open source continuation of Bungie’s Marathon 2 game engine.” In fact, the...

Dear Apple, I want ‘Space Black’ on everything, including a 'dark mode' iPhone 16

"Space Black" looks badass — period. When Apple debuted the Space Black MacBook Pro at the "Scary Fast" Apple livestream event in October, I was salivating.

There's something mysterious, smoldering, and seductive about it.

If the Space Black MacBook Pro were personified, I'd imagine it'd be Morpheus from The Matrix or a mature Wednesday Addams. Or better yet, a film noir detective with a confident swagger, dressed in an onyx suit, sitting in a billow of smoke as he puffs his cigar in a...

OpenAI will reveal a mysterious AI product on Monday. What we know, how to watch.

OpenAI is hosting a live demo of updates on Monday, May 13. But it won't be about GPT-5 or a search engine.

The announcement came from OpenAI's X account. In typically evasive fashion, the post only said the livestream would be about ChatGPT and GPT-4. But OpenAI CEO Sam Altman retweeted the news, saying "not gpt-5, not a search engine, but we’ve been hard at work on some new stuff we think people will love! feels like magic to me."

Roads can crack, rut and fail. Here’s how to build them well

The next time you’re on the road, remember that it takes a good amount of engineering and tremendous teamwork to create that smooth pavement surface you drive on.

While on the road, you’re probably thinking more about your destination than the pavement you’re driving over. But building roads requires a host of engineering feats, from developing the right pavement materials to using heavy equipment to lay them down. The better they’re built, the longer roads last and the fewer...

I’ll be honest: every model in Amazon’s discounted Kindle lineup is fantastic for those embedded in the Amazon ecosystem, but it’s Kobo that makes my absolute favorite e-readers. If you don’t mind buying ebooks outside of Amazon, Kobo’s e-readers offer fantastic value for the money, which is why I’m excited by today’s sale.

EA CEO Andrew Wilson admitted as much on the company’s Q4 earnings call: when an analyst asked about “the market opportunity for more dynamic ad insertion across more traditional AAA games,” he said the company’s already working on...

Who’s afraid of China’s electric vehicles? President Joe Biden.

The president is preparing to announce higher tariffs on imported Chinese EVs, effectively closing out the possibility that the country will be able to afford to import its much cheaper and, in many cases, more desirable plug-in vehicles to the United States.

According to The Wall Street Journal, the Biden administration will announce plans to roughly quadruple tariffs, to...
