Tesla Takedown” organizers have promised their biggest day of global action today, encouraging thousands to protest outside Tesla showrooms, dealerships, and even charging stations to peacefully object to Elon Musk’s role in slashing government spending. As Tesla protests have spread, so has the backlash. Activists holding up signs are being conflated with masked vandals throwing Molotov cocktails. On social media, and in Washington, the distinction is fading fast. President Donald Trump has called attacks on Tesla “domestic terrorism” and threatened to send “terrorist thugs” to prisons in El Salvador. U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi has pledged to prosecute “those operating…

Nintendo announced on Friday that its live-action “The Legend of Zelda” movie will premiere on March 26, 2027. It’s a little weird to announce this the day after a Nintendo Direct livestream, where the gaming company usually unloads all of its recent news. But that was intentional. The company wants fans to download its new app, Nintendo Today! — yes, that exclamation is their own doing — to learn the latest news. During Thursday’s Nintendo Direct event, Nintendo game director Shigeru Miyamoto closed out the presentation by announcing the Nintendo Today! news app. Those who swiftly downloaded it were rewarded…
For years, the ThinkPad lineup was easy to spot. Every ThinkPad featured the same iconic design, from the red-on-black color scheme to the keyboard design to the TrackPoint nubbin. Then, Lenovo introduced the ThinkPad Z series that altered the design a bit, and now there’s a new model that takes the lineup even further away from tradition. The ThinkPad X9-14 is a brand-new design that looks — and feels — even less like the ThinkPad of yesterday. That’s not a bad thing, because the new laptop has a lot going for it — although it doesn’t quite make it onto…
Samsung has launched additional Bespoke AI appliances for 2025. These join other products in the new lineup revealed earlier this year at CES and KBIS. Regardless of device, each product in this year’s lineup emphasizes three key features: AI-enhanced convenience, better connectivity, and stylish modern designs. The first new smart home product is the Bespoke AI Laundry Vented Combo, which claims to be the industry’s first vented all-in-one washer-dryer. This innovative product eliminates the need to transfer clothes between machines. It features a 7-inch AI Home LCD touchscreen, making it easy to control cycles and settings with a drum capacity…
Assassin’s Creed Shadows has launched on Mac, PC and consoles, and while we gave it something of a mixed grade in our review, I find it a lot more interesting as a Mac gamer than someone else might. What’s notable from a Mac gamer’s perspective is not only that a genuinely AAA game has come to the Mac, but also that it has launched on Mac at the same time as Windows. That doesn’t happen very often, and Mac gamers are used to waiting years before a title makes it to their side of the divide. This changed approach suggests…

In May 2023, Ford triggered a transformation when the U.S. automaker locked in a deal to give owners of its EVs access to the Tesla Supercharger network. In a stunning shift, automaker after automaker — from GM and Hyundai to Rivian and Mercedes — followed suit. By the end of 2023, nearly every major automaker had agreed to adopt Tesla’s North American Charging Standard (NACS) and promised EV owners that adapters would soon be on their way. Many non-Tesla customers are still waiting. However, recent announcements from automakers may provide an electric lining of optimism. Tesla EV charging standard In…
Federal judge blocks DOGE’s access to Social Security Administration’s banks of personal information A federal judge on Thursday issued an order blocking Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency from accessing systems at the Social Security Administration (SSA) that store the personal information of millions of Americans. In the Thursday ruling, U.S. District Judge Ellen Hollander in Maryland accused DOGE of being “essentially engaged in a fishing expedition” in search of fraud based on “little more than suspicion. Hollander said DOGE “never identified or articulated” a reason why it needs access to the “personal and private data of millions of Americans.…
Bloober Team just gave us a look at its next IP at the Future Games Show today, and it looks unsettling in the best ways. Cronos: The New Dawn is a game that throws the player — known as a Traveler — into the ruins of a 1980s post-apocalyptic Poland, but that’s just the beginning. Bloober Team says its latest survival horror involves jumping through time as much as it does surviving in the ruins of a destroyed world. First unveiled in October 2024, Cronos: The New Dawn is as much about unraveling the mystery of exactly what happened to bring…
