My gamertag is more useful than a business card. I write about the tech industry, hardware, software, games, and motoring.
One thing we’re worried about when it comes to next-gen consoles, is whether we’ll need to buy our favourite games twice (one for PS4 and one for PS5). But a new leak for Ubisoft’s Far Cry 6 title may clear up some doubts. All while also suggesting a release date for the anticipated game of 18 February 2021. An unexpected listing on the PSN (PlayStation Network) Store in Hong Kong has revealed more details about Far Cry 6 and what we can expect. One of the major rumours confirmed by this listing, though, is that we’ll see Breaking Bad actor…
Okay, we’re really starting to question where these leaks come from. If they’re directly from Samsung, that’s some good marketing. Because we just got another, clearer look at the upcoming Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra device. Yesterday, Samsung officially announced the date we’ll see the Note 20-range revealed on-stream. What this means though, is that rumours and leaks are in full force. At the 5 August Unpacked event, we’re expecting to see Galaxy Note 20, Note 20 Ultra, and maybe a Galaxy Fold successor. Now we’ve got a sweet hands-on video of the upcoming flagship on YouTube. The video was…
Remember last year? When Stuff got a good look at Audi’s new EV, the E-Tron at the motor show? How those were the days, when we could leave our houses. Well, Audi has announced a new shape for the highly anticipated EV in the form of the Sportback Q4. The newly revealed Q4 Sportback version brings an undeniable sporty edge to the EV — now this is no doubt something we can work with, friends. This Sportback version is apparently aimed at serving as a smaller and more affordable option to the flagship E-Tron that’ll be available from next year…
Oh, Uber Eats – one of the great inventions of our time. The company behind the food-delivery app, Uber, has acquired another food delivery service in the US called Postmates. Postmates was the fourth-largest food delivery company in that neck of the woods. This week, Uber bought Postmates for a whole $2.65 billion, after which Uber said it’s sure it’ll be profitable by 2021. If you forgot, Uber has not exactly been profitable since it started. Because the best way to deal with financial loss due to a global pandemic is by buying yourself something nice, like a company. While…
Multichoice has finally decided to focus its efforts on streaming. After a tough few years for the broadcaster, facing Netflix and other streaming services on the scene, Showmax is getting a premium tier that includes live sport, called Showmax Pro. The new bundle integrates the existing Showmax bundle of options with new services in the form of music channels, news and live sport streaming directly from SuperSport. “Showmax Pro features all Premier League, Serie A, La Liga and PSL games, as well as a wide range of other live sport events,” Showmax says. Unfortunately for South Africans though, the service…
Because that’s just what we need: Facebook taking the high ground. Honestly, there isn’t much to preach about here, because South African’s have gone out of their way to listen to uncle Cyril and wearing masks. Unlike some neighbours across the ocean, local people have mostly done their part by wearing masks and promoting masked faces in their social groups. But now Facebook and Instagram are here to help remind you that masks work and should be worn at all times outside the house. “Facebook is supporting the global public health community’s work to keep people safe and informed during…
Adding a contact to your WhatsApp will become even easier, thanks to a new feature. Not that anyone felt it necessary, or needed in any way, except if you own a business, right? You’ll soon be able to scan another user’s QR code to add them to your contacts, no more typing in a phone number manually. WhatsApp tested this feature a few months ago, and we’re not convinced that this is the safest way forward. Although it sounds like a user-friendly feature, it may put people at risk of having their WhatsApp accounts shared with people they don’t necessarily…
We’re going out on a limb in saying that a dinosaur probs won’t fit into your living room. Unless it’s a small one or you live in Richard Branson’s house. What if we told you Google can make a dinosaur fit into any living room thanks to its new augmented reality feature. Google has added ten AR dinosaurs to its Google search function, including favourites like the Tyrannosaurus rex, Velociraptor, Triceratops, Spinosaurus, Stegosaurus, Brachiosaurus, Ankylosaurus, Dilophosaurus, Pteranodon and Parasaurolophus. Dino-nerds would appreciate that lineup. The company has been bolstering its AR animal feature since its IO event last year, adding…
