this is a QUARTER CENTURY old now youtu.be/GAv1EwoRnec Back to 2001 on LGR today for a retrospective on Windows XP! Reminiscing on its release, unboxing and setting it up, new features, games, screensavers, and a bunch of nifty early 2000s things. Still a truly enjoyable eXPerience decades later!

you're just going about your day and you now get to read stuff like "Trump says Sundar Pichai talked him out of renaming the Atlantic Ocean" and you just have to nod and move on with your day. “Oceans are different, sir.” lmao www.theverge.com/policy/10167...

Amplifying what Larry Ellison doesn't want you to see.

25 years ago today, Windows XP was released to manufacturing.

I love that AI companies are all like "we just have a marketing problem" when regular people are having AI experiences like this all over the place every single day

I haven't been this excited for a new game in years. This looks like an absolute dream.

On this day in 2011, Portal 2 was released.

The average American just thinks any company can bribe the government for anything they want at any time and I see no reason why people should be dissuaded of this fact when agencies like the FCC are run by people like Brendan Carr. www.theverge.com/tech/911888/...

what do the attorney general and an iMac G3 have in common?

Update from the ”We’re not authoritarians” crowd: www.axios.com/2026/02/27/a... A supply chain risk for not building autonomous weapons and mass U.S. surveillance systems RIGHT NOW. Give me a break.

Trump calls Supreme Court justices who ruled against tariffs 'disloyal' - The Hill They don’t owe a President loyalty

“Everyone should be allowed to carry a gun for their safety but the government can murder you in the street if you have a gun” is an incredible endpoint for the conservative moment

One of the funniest / stupidest parts of the Influencer Administration is that he’s also constantly screwing with broadcast TV policy as though everyone isn’t actually watching YouTube all day

Tim Cook and Sundar Pichai are cowards

Tell Microsoft that next.

On this day in 2004, Gran Turismo 4 was released in Japan 🇯🇵

Since his appointment, RFK Jr. has pursued a brutal vision of American health that several experts liken to a sort of eugenics. Kennedy has made it clear that certain deaths are acceptable or even preferable to a world where every child is vaccinated. Read more: www.theverge.com/health/66136...

Brendan Carr is a dummy

Today, @lujan.senate.gov and I pressed Chairman Carr on the need for an independent FCC. Carr said he doesn’t think the FCC is an independent agency and has now immediately removed any reference of the FCC being an “independent agency” from it's website. This is all a big scam.

LUHAN: Is the FCC an independent agency? CARR: I think th--- L: Yes or no C: There's a test for this in the la--- L: It's yes or no, Brendan! On your website, it simply says, man, 'the FCC is independent.' This isn't a trick question C: The FCC is not L: So is your website lying? C: Possibly

Plex Makes the Onion!

A rare GM EV1 saved from the crusher is going to be driveable again

We're over four years into Windows 11 and largely the only noteworthy updates are the additions of removed Windows 10 features. Maybe if Microsoft wasn't so stubbornly trying to turn it into an "agentic OS" this wouldn't be a problem. I haven't heard a single person ask for that in conversation.

It's here! So pumped to have a new Pebble on my wrist. @repebble.com @ericmigi.com

Getting a firmware update on a 10+ year old smartwatch is awesome. I hear it's just for time zone fixes but it's a welcome surprise nonetheless.

Well, today is the (official) end of the road for Windows 10. It's had its fair share of flaws, but it really became a rock-solid OS as time went on, only for Windows 11 to walk back on that stability. I can't ever forget how much of a lifeline it was to older PC hardware. You won't see that again.

This is easily the worst thing that could happen to Android as a platform. It's fine to tighten security, but not to the extent where it eliminates the main benefit for enthusiasts, as it's been since the beginning. It's also practically a surveillance tactic when you factor in the identification.

The man is more fundamentally interested in state control of the economy than any elected Dem lol www.theverge.com/news/764480/...

Corruption at its finest. TikTok will be next.

Pebble is officially Pebble again

There's that Trump attention to detail www.theverge.com/news/687418/...

who ever could have seen this coming

My ODROID-C5 already arrived. Excited to explore this board coming from a Raspberry Pi 3B+. Who else just picked one of these up?

Wild to pull this move weeks before WWDC, the entire purpose if which is wooing developers www.theverge.com/news/667484/...

Could you imagine the response if a democratic president said they didn’t know if they had to uphold the Constitution? How fast would the articles of impeachment be drawn ? 20 minutes at the most

I understand that businesses need to make strategic decisions, but this is just plainly unethical. You're not improving privacy or security if your intent is just to make an external site *sound* dangerous to your benefit. That angle that is often brought up is not valid here.

Just incredible stuff happening in American capitalism these days, when you can be worth over $200 billion and still be brought to heel. For what? What is this kind of wealth and influence supposed to even buy you anyway? www.theverge.com/news/658008/...

I switched away from Chrome as my browser of choice over 5 years ago, but I think this would eliminate any chance there ever was that I would return to using it. The last thing the top browser in the world needs is more AI slop.

Currently restoring this 20 year old Dell Latitude D610 to its former glory. This thing is a tank. My mom had used it up until 2015 and it was previously running Linux (elementaryOS 0.3.1, to be specific). It makes a nice machine with impressive I/O for messing around with legacy Windows software.

Saw this strange change when using YouTube Music today where the release year replaced song duration in the queue. Not even ten minutes later I saw a post on Reddit about it and the YTM Product Manager confirmed it's a bug.

I'm cracking up at Facebook comments saying things along the lines of "My car is paid off, so I don't care about car prices going way up due to tariffs." The cult is real.

So good. 🤡 @brendanvduke.bsky.social

Gemini isn't exactly giving me much confidence in its ability to replace Google Assistant when that eventually happens. Results are inconsistent, and even doing something as simple as turning on a light seems to take a lot longer. I'm curious how this transition plays out.

He deserves all the scrutiny he's getting and he knows it.

This is America now. Give the president a couple million dollars, and you too can get away with all the crimes you want.
