Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman says Apple is developing two game controllers for the iPhone and will likely sell them under the Beats brand. Rumors that Apple might enter the game controller business have circulated for some time. But last week, MacRumors reported finding two references in macOS 26.7’s code to two game controllers identified as first-party…
Local co-op died with the living room. Most retro sessions today happen with a friend three states away, and screen-sharing tools like Parsec add a full frame of lag on top of whatever the emulator itself costs you. Netplay skips that tax by syncing inputs, not video, which is why Dolphin, RetroArch, and PCSX2 all…
Security operations centers spent 2025 experimenting with AI copilots. By September 2026, the experiment is over and a new product category has hardened: the AI SOC analyst platform, software that does not just summarize an alert but plans an investigation, queries the SIEM and EDR itself, and returns a verdict with cited evidence. Three vendors…
Type “Groq vs Grok” into a search bar and you’ll find two camps of confused people: developers trying to figure out why their inference bill looks nothing like the pricing page they read, and casual AI users wondering if the chatbot on X and the blazing-fast chip startup are somehow the same company. They are…
OpenAI shipped the Agents API into public beta on September 10, 2026, and it changes the default way developers wire up autonomous coding and research agents. Instead of stitching together the Responses API, a custom orchestration loop, and a sandbox provider, you now call a single managed endpoint that runs the same Codex harness OpenAI…
PS5 owners run out of internal storage fast. A modern open-world title can eat 100GB or more, and even the PS5 Pro’s 2TB drive holds roughly 1.89TB of usable space once the operating system takes its cut. Sony’s answer is USB extended storage, but the feature comes with a rule that trips up almost everyone…
A threat actor spent roughly a week in late August 2026 doing almost nothing by hand. Instead, hundreds of autonomous AI agents did the scanning, the exploit-building, the breaking-in, and much of the follow-up looting across 395 organizations in 48 countries. Security researchers had warned for years that this moment was coming. According to Help…
The Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (FLHSMV) has confirmed that a single police employee’s login credentials opened the door to a breach of its DAVID driver database, according to a September 11, 2026 statement from the agency and reporting by Tampa Bay 28. The outlet identified the source of the compromised access…
World of Warcraft’s new “Skyborne” elf race is causing some controversy in the WoW community, many of whom are tired of Blizzard’s apparent love of elves.
Every Steam Deck owner eventually hits the same wall: a game launches fine on Windows but crashes, stutters, or refuses to boot on Linux. The fix usually isn’t a new graphics driver or a reinstalled game. It’s a different build of Proton. As of September 2026, Valve’s default Proton sits at version 11.0-2, the community-maintained…
