The all-electric 2025 Lucid Air Pure is a dreamy, sexy car that’s no less luxurious for being the cheapest trim in Lucid’s Air lineup. I felt fancy and discerning driving around, but in an understated way – as if I were wearing designer sweatpants. But does fancy equal value? I spent about 10 days driving the Air Pure on two different coasts to find out. And the tl;dr is: Yes, but only if those over-the-air updates keep coming through. The Air Pure is a technological dreamboat in many invisible “under the hood” ways — like its ultra efficient electric motor.…

AI agents are supposed to be the next big thing in AI, but there isn’t an exact definition of what they are. To this point, people can’t agree on what exactly constitutes an AI agent. At its simplest, an AI agent is best described as AI-fueled software that does a series of jobs for you that a human customer service agent, HR person, or IT help desk employee might have done in the past, although it could ultimately involve any task. You ask it to do things, and it does them for you, sometimes crossing multiple systems and going well…
The Nintendo Switch 2 has been the subject of speculation and rumors for a long time now, with fans looking for the slightest hint of news at every major gaming event. There have been several leaks, some more plausible than others, but two big leaks have emerged this weekend: one from Reddit and another from Dbrand. The other leak comes from a Dbrand accessory listing, although it feels somewhat intentional. Take a look at the X post below. Dbrand told The Tech Spot that the device inside the case is, in fact, the Nintendo Switch 2. The company, known for…
At Thursday’s Game Awards, two of the biggest reveals were new entries in the Okami and Onimusha franchises. It’s the first new title in either IP for 18 years, although there have been a few ports and remasters released over the years. The good news doesn’t stop there, though: Capcom has stated that it wants to continue bringing back its older properties and rebooting them. According to its recent press release, Capcom “is focusing on reactivating dormant IPs that haven’t had a new title launch recently.” In this case, “recently” is a vague term. We’re approaching two decades without a new…
Squid Game season 2 makes its triumphant debut one day after Christmas. Nothing screams holiday cheer more than a show about game contestants dying in the most brutal ways possible. For something with more thrills, check out Black Doves, the excellent espionage drama starring Keira Knightley and Ben Whishaw. Beyond the high-profile titles, Netflix has thousands of programs to watch, so much so that you can waste precious time scrolling instead of streaming. To save time, this guide recommends three underrated shows available to stream right now. The picks include a mystery involving a missing airplane, an invigorating thriller about a…
Apple could finally fix the Magic Mouse and its terrible charging port location. As per Bloomberg, a new Magic Mouse is in the works and it will likely revise the location of the charging port. “The current Magic Mouse is nearing the end of its life, and Apple is working on a full overhaul,” says the report. Earlier this year, Apple switched the mouse to a USB-C charging interface, ditching the proprietary Lightning port. However, the company hasn’t fixed its biggest problem, which is the underside positioning of the Magic Mouse. That means it is still unusable when charging, and…
Open source might be the building block of the modern software stack, but companies building businesses off the back of open source software face a perennial struggle between keeping their community happy and ensuring that third parties don’t abuse the permissions afforded by the license. Many companies have launched with lofty open source ambitions, only to duck for cover once the realities of the commercial world hit home. It’s all about protecting their bottom line, especially with investors (public or private) to appease. But it can be difficult keeping tabs on all these changes while also distinguishing those that have…
AMD is finally turning the corner with FSR 3. I’ve been very critical of AMD’s FSR 3 in the past. It’s not that the tool is bad—in fact, I think it’s excellent—but for a long time, it just wasn’t available in a wide swath of games. That’s changing. Over the past year, AMD has broadened support for its upscaling and frame generation tech massively, and it’s continued to refine the upscaling algorithm that makes up the core of FSR. I’m sure you, like myself, have settled into assumptions about what FSR is capable of and where it’s available, but as…
Apple introduced its first object tracker all the way back in 2021. In typical Apple fashion, the company hasn’t said a word about an upgrade, but as per reliable reports, the AirTag 2 has moved to the “manufacturing tests” stage with an added focus on privacy measures. Now, Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman has shed more light on the biggest hardware upgrade destined for the second-generation AirTag. In the latest edition of his PowerOn newsletter, Gurman writes that the object tracker will get a more powerful UWB chip. UWB, short for Ultra Wideband, is a short-range radio technology that enables spatial awareness.…
It seems the company’s plans for a foldable device could actually be more ambitious than any rival has attempted so far. Apple is the biggest consumer electronics player that is yet to dabble in foldable devices. The report mentions “a giant iPad that unfolds into the size of two iPad Pros side-by-side.” The biggest challenge for Apple has been eliminating the crease in the middle of the flexible screen, and it seems the company’s engineers have solved that piece of the puzzle to a large extent. The prototype device is said to offer “a nearly invisible crease.” So far, the…
