So you’re the sort of person who spoils your kid, are you? Unless your toddler is styling around in their very own (electric) McLaren 720S, you’re probably not doing it right. The auto-maker has come out with a scaled down version of its 720S supercar specifically for kids. It’s not quite a supercar that shrank in the wash, however. The McLaren 720S Ride-On, to give it its full title, just looks like one.
Samsung’s first crack at something really new, the Galaxy Fold, is reportedly back up and running according to those lovely folks, the “…people familiar with the matter”.
What a time to be alive. Not only are we living in the future, it seems we’re also travelling back in time. You know, like tachyons. Why all the Doc Brown talk? Well, Microsoft’s teasing a little something called Windows 1.0. It seems to be be an obvious reference to Windows 10, based on the retro blue logo for the operating system. Weird how we never noticed that before.
We always knew this day would come. The skies aflame, the raiders bursting through the barricades. We tried our best to stop them but Samsung’s releasing another Galaxy Note. And the official day has been set, for 7 August this year. Just as the prophecies foretold. If you count several leakers as prophets, that is. Word on the street has long had Samsung’s next Unpacked event taking place on 7 August this year, and that word has since become law. Samsung’s media invites have been sent and the Galaxy Note 10 will have its day in the sun next month…
This week in Light Start we have the sounds of BMWs, SpaceX in the future, Call of Duty’s Blackout loses a bit, and a look at The Current War.
It’s happened. In a manner of speaking. Facebook-owned messaging service WhatsApp is currently testing the ability to share statuses — those Facebook-like, limited-time messages — with other apps. Including Facebook and Instagram. What could possible go wrong?
One Punch Man, in case you’ve been neglecting your anime viewing of late, is a series about a hero. A hero who never needs more than a single punch to defeat his foes. Which sounds absolutely awesome, until you realise that that’s… a pretty boring life to lead. We’ve already seen the oddball series take manga and anime forms, and now it’s about time for a video game to make an appearance. Publishers Namco Bandai has announced One Punch Man: A Hero Nobody Knows — a 3v3 fighter in the vein of Dragon Ball FighterZ or the many, many Naruto…
In this week’s Light Start we have technical Windows things, military Thor, the new Xbox console (one of em), and Genshin Impact.
We’ve been following along with Netflix’s Stranger Things since Season 3 was announced. While previous trailers have proved to be a little… meh, showing more drama and a not insubstantial amount of rampant consumerism (albeit a retro version of it), the newest — and final — Stranger Things Season 3 trailer brings the pain. And more than a little horror, to boot.
It’s a hard life being cheesed off, but that’s just what happens when you’re attempting to afford a member of Apple’s lineup of computers. If you’ve had eyes on the massively-expensive Mac Pro announced earlier this month, though, you might be aware of its cheesier qualities. That is: a casing capable of shredding rotted bovine lactation. Or, at least, so we thought.
