iFixit’s Steam Deck replacement parts will be available beginning this summer Posted: 04 Mar 2022 02:02 PM PST iFixit plans to start offering Steam Deck replacement parts this summer, iFixit's Kevin Purdy tells The Verge. Valve first announced in February that the repair experts at iFixit would be one of the authorized sellers of replacement parts but did not give a specific timeline as to when they would be available. The vast majority of consoles aren't easily user repairable, so making official Steam Deck replacement parts available, even if they aren't out just yet, is a good thing for consumers. And hopefully, it will push other hardware makers to do the same in the future. We've asked iFixit if it can share information about which parts you'll be able to get and how much they'll cost. In Valve's official Steam Deck teardown video from... |
Google Fiber workers begin voting on whether to unionize Posted: 04 Mar 2022 01:41 PM PST Voting is open for workers for a Google Fiber subcontractor in Missouri, who are deciding whether to unionize as part of the Alphabet Workers Union (AWU), a division of the Communication Workers of America. If successful, the 12 workers, who are employed by staffing agency BDS Connected Solutions as workers at Google Fiber stores, would be the AWU's first bargaining unit to be recognized by the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB). The workers have to mail their ballots back to the NLRB by March 24th, when they'll be counted by the agency's regional office. Google spokesperson Jennifer Rodstrom noted in an email to The Verge that the AWU petition filed with the NLRB mentions BDS, but not Google. "We have many contracts with both... |
Russia’s Yandex ‘pauses’ autonomous vehicle testing in the US Posted: 04 Mar 2022 12:56 PM PST Russian technology company Yandex said that it was "pausing" its autonomous vehicle and sidewalk robot testing in the US. The news was first reported by Automotive News. The company said it was shutting down its robotaxi fleet in Ann Arbor, Michigan, as well as a delivery service with Grubhub powered by its six-wheeled sidewalk robots. "We hope to resume the operations in the future," a spokesperson said. The news comes as Russia's invasion of Ukraine continued to send shockwaves around the world. The conflict has sparked a fierce outcry among Western nations, leading many to cut business ties with Russian companies. On Friday, Russia announced it was blocking access to Facebook. |
Peacock is swiping back some of Hulu’s most popular streaming shows Posted: 04 Mar 2022 12:38 PM PST Some of the most popular programming on Hulu will now head to Peacock. A contract between the streaming services' parent companies Disney and Comcast to stream NBCUniversal shows to Hulu has been terminated. "The Hulu agreement was terminated," NBCUniversal spokesperson Lisa Scalzo confirmed to The Verge. The partnership will see episodes of NBCUniversal-owned shows like Saturday Night Live and The Voice debut on Peacock, rather than Hulu, after airing on pay-TV. Because Hulu will no longer be paying for some of NBC's biggest titles, the deal could give Hulu the financial freedom to pursue more originals. The change will likely go into effect next broadcast season, possibly around September and October. The termination will not wipe all... |
Nintendo gamers in Russia just got locked out of digital game purchases Posted: 04 Mar 2022 12:14 PM PST Nintendo has temporarily put its Russian eShop into maintenance mode, the company said in a notice on its Russian website, which appears to mean that players in the country can't buy digital games from the store. "Due to the fact that the payment service used in Nintendo eShop has suspended the processing of payments in rubles, Nintendo eShop in Russia is temporarily placed into maintenance mode," according to a Google-translated version of the message. "We apologize for any inconvenience caused." It's unclear what payment service Nintendo uses. The Verge has reached out for more information. Many gaming companies have taken action in protest of Russia's invasion of Ukraine. EA and CD Projekt Red have halted sales of their games in... |
Heardle is like Wordle for pop music Posted: 04 Mar 2022 12:11 PM PST If you've finished your Wordle, Worldle, and Octordle and have more room in your heart for more Wordle-alikes, may I suggest trying out Heardle.app? It's a guessing game where you're given progressively longer snippets of a pop song and get six tries to figure out what it is. It's a fun twist on the Wordle format, especially for those of us who are significantly more interested in music than words like "knoll" or "vivid." An interesting twist with Heardle is that it gives you a skip button. Mechanically, it makes sense — with Wordle, you're only going to get closer to the answer by guessing a word and seeing what letters are or aren't in the correct answer. But when you're guessing a song, hearing a new snippet will give you more... |
How to connect your Xbox controller to a PC or phone and swap back to your console Posted: 04 Mar 2022 11:55 AM PST If you own any wireless Xbox controller from the current or previous generation, you already have a great option for playing controller-based games on a PC or smartphone. The key to the adaptability of these controllers is their support for both the Xbox Wireless protocol and Bluetooth. After Apple rolled out iOS 14.5 with support for wireless Xbox controllers and Microsoft tested and rolled out firmware updates for the older Bluetooth-equipped Xbox One controllers and the Elite 2 (matching the functionality of newer Series X models), these controllers went from being the only de facto option for Xbox or PC gamers to one of the most versatile options for use across consoles, phones, tablets, and Windows PCs. Connecting to all these... |
How to upgrade your Nintendo Switch storage and migrate your games Posted: 04 Mar 2022 11:47 AM PST The Nintendo Switch only comes with 32GB of internal storage, which is minuscule if you plan on having more than just a handful of games and apps downloaded to your handheld console. The solution is to use a microSD card to expand the Switch's storage. But what's the easiest way to do that? And if you already have a microSD card and want to use a new one with more capacity, how do you migrate your files? Don't worry; we'll walk you through it all. Before you begin, it's always a good idea to back up your games to a desktop computer using a microSD card. Of course, any title downloaded from the Nintendo eShop (they're tied to your account) can be archived and downloaded again directly, if needed. But it takes a lot longer to download... |
Here are the best Kindle deals right now Posted: 04 Mar 2022 11:30 AM PST When it comes to finding a device to use to read your ebooks, you have a few options to choose from. You can always buy a tablet or use your smartphone, but those devices are multipurpose and can be used for a ton of things, like surfing the web or doom-scrolling on Twitter. If you are looking for something to strictly read books, e-readers, while niche, are designed to store all of your books in a virtual library with limited functionality. Amazon, one of the pioneers of the e-reader, has dominated the space for years with its Kindle lineup, which consists of several unique models with their own pros and cons. Below, we've listed each model currently available for purchase. Sometimes, there isn't a deal for one, or any, of the... |
Microsoft will let you play Xbox cloud games with a mouse and keyboard: ‘it’s coming’ Posted: 04 Mar 2022 11:28 AM PST The newest Microsoft Flight Simulator is one of the most demanding games ever made — and yet you can now play it on a shitty PC (or an original Xbox One) with the power of Microsoft's cloud. There's just one big hole: you can't play currently play Xbox with a mouse and keyboard because Xbox Cloud Gaming only supports gamepads (and touch) for now. But according to Microsoft Flight Simulator boss Jorg Neumann, that's about to change: mouse and keyboard control is coming. Neumann spilled the beans in a Flight Simulator video Q&A (via Windows Central), where he says it will be platform-level support, meaning, theoretically, any Xbox cloud game could offer mouse and keyboard control. Here's my transcript of the most relevant part:
