Nintendo has released a new firmware update for the Switch, and for once it actually adds some features to the console's barebones OS.

The biggest one is a new way to share screenshots and videos directly to your smartphone by scanning a QR code. The process is a little awkward, but it definitely beats the previous method of uploading everything to Twitter or Facebook first.

Here's how it works:

You can also now copy screenshots and videos to your PC over USB.

Enterprising developers are emulating PS2 games on the Xbox Series S and X

Developers have now made it possible to emulate PS2 games on the Xbox Series X and S using the RetroArch emulator — something that the PlayStation 5, a successor to the PS2, can't.

Thanks to the Xbox Series X / S consoles' "Developer Mode," the emulation software can be added as a Universal Windows Application (UWA), allowing users to download a retail version of the emulation software directly to their console without tricky workarounds, so players don't have to wait for a re-release to play an older favorite.

While RetroArch is able to emulate several different consoles, the compatibility for running PS2 games using the PCSX2 core is particularly notable because of how limited Sony's PlayStation 5 is when it comes to backwards...

Component failure in NASA’s deep-space crew capsule could take months to fix

Posted: 30 Nov 2020 02:53 PM PST

Engineers are racing to fix a failed piece of equipment on NASA's future deep-space crew capsule Orion ahead of its first flight to space. It may require months of work to replace and fix. Right now, engineers at NASA and Orion's primary contractor, Lockheed Martin, are trying to figure out the best way to fix the component and how much time the repairs are going to take.

In early November, engineers at Lockheed Martin working on Orion noticed that a power component inside the vehicle had failed, according to an internal email and an internal PowerPoint presentation seen by The Verge. The component is within one of the spacecraft's eight power and data units, or PDUs. The PDUs are the "main power/data boxes," for Orion according to the...

Apple AirPods are among the most popular headphones on the market. They're compact, easy to pair with your devices, and they offer reliable connectivity, which can sometimes be a problem with truly wireless earphones. So there's a chance that you might be looking for a deal on them.

Zoom is doing pretty well. The company reported $777.2 million in revenue during its third quarter, well over 4x its revenue from the same quarter last year. That's now two quarters in a row that Zoom's revenue has quadrupled. Zoom expects to quadruple its revenue year over year once again in the fourth quarter.

The immense success should come as no surprise. Zoom became the go-to videoconferencing app at the start of the pandemic, and it's managed to hold on to that spot even as other services — like Google Meet, Slack, and Microsoft Teams — have increasingly vied for attention.

Zoom doesn't state how many users it has in total, but its metrics around paying customers continue to grow. The company now has 433,700 subscribers with more...

Apple has hired Josh Elman, a prominent venture capitalist and former vice president of product at stock-trading app Robinhood, to help it improve iOS app discovery in the App Store. Elman announced the news via his Twitter account on Monday, saying he's also leaving his role as a board partner at the firm Greylock Partners and as a board member of prominent tech companies like Discord and Medium.

Elman joining the App Store team may help improve the iPhone maker's relationship with developers after a rather rough year in which Apple's stewardship of the App Store has been called into question by critics, rivals, and regulators. For instance, Elman is previously a board member of and investor in Houseparty, the chat app acquired by F...

Smart homes are no longer just for the rich or digital experimenters. Your speakers, locks, lights, security cameras, and kitchen utensils can now be controlled via your phone or other digital device — and there are a lot of products to choose from. Many of which are going for less during this year's Cyber Monday event.

You can start with a simple smart speaker from Google, Amazon, or Apple, and then add some smart bulbs or a security camera. Use a smart display to make controlling your home even easier and to communicate instantly with a friend or relative. And you can make your home internet fast and accessible with a mesh network.

We've listed below all of the best deals we could find on home tech, and we'll keep it updated as the...
