You might see an ad after you finish today’s Wordle

I just finished Friday's Wordle — which I am reminding you now is owned by The New York Times for reasons you'll understand shortly — and when I did, I was surprised to see an addition to the results screen. Under the usual stats, the "next Wordle" countdown, and the share button, there was something new: a small banner advertising another puzzle, the NYT's Spelling Bee.

For fans who appreciate Wordle's simplicity, the ad may come as a rude surprise. Part of the appeal of Wordle is that simplicity: you take your shot at the day's puzzle, decide whether or not your journey is worth sharing on Twitter, then close the tab and move on.

And that was by design, as noted in the NYT's profile of Wordle creator Josh Wardle:

But since Wordle...

Apple’s still not catching scammy apps, and this time they’re on the Mac

Scam app hunter / developer Kosta Eleftheriou, known for catching egregious scams that make it past Apple's review process, has once again brought attention to a new crop of shady apps being peddled through the App Store. This time they're on the Mac, and they're using pop-ups that make it extremely difficult to quit an app without agreeing to outrageous subscription prices — all without Apple noticing, despite its argument that its App Review process keeps devices and users safe.

The app that started the hunt, which seems to have been discovered by Edoardo Vacchi, is called My Metronome. According to Vacchi, Eleftheriou, and user reviews, the app locks up and won't let you quit it using keyboard shortcuts or the menu bar until you agree...

This FF7 Buster Sword clock prevents you from casting snooze

Are a Final Fantasy VII fan? Tired of oversleeping? Don't want to use your phone as an alarm lest you get sucked into doomscrolling? Well, do I ever have the solution for you: a standalone digital clock fashioned after Final Fantasy VII's iconic Buster Sword.

The miniature replica of Cloud Strife's ridiculously large sword — specifically, the version in Final Fantasy VII Remake — is set at an angle reminiscent of how you see it on the game's main menu screen. The time is illuminated prominently thanks to a display on the sword's blade, and the materia near the hilt light up, too.

A closer look at the clock. Wonder what materia those are.

If you like Final Fantasy VII Remake's music — like me...

The Steam Deck is not a flop

Valve's Steam Deck handheld gaming PC has been the #2 top grossing product on Steam for five weeks in a row, according to SteamDB.

I am vindicated — because that means it's not a flop.

Early estimates suggested over 110,000 people put down a $5 deposit for the unproven Linux handheld in the first 90 minutes after it went on sale last July, but there was always a chance they'd change their mind. I figured many would after reading critical reviews like mine! And while I have seen a handful of people in r/SteamDeck reclaim their five bucks... almost every other sign suggests to me that it's selling well.

While we don't have official sales numbers for the Steam Deck, here is some context that might put things in perspective:

Go read this deep dive into the changes coming to Android 13

If you're the kind of Android user that double-checks every app permission, stays informed on every new feature, and is actually interested in app split screen, then you need to go read this detailed explanation of the changes to expect in Android 13 later this year. It's a thorough and organized changelog — with a table of contents — of developer preview 2 of the unreleased Android 13 and reads as if it's an official internal guide for all the changes.

This thoroughly documented changelog of Android 13 is written by none other than former XDA Developers editor-in-chief Mishaal Rahman — who last year uncovered the technical reason why Microsoft Teams and Android 12 caused a failed emergency call. You might even catch foreshadowing of...

Samsung’s Galaxy Chromebook 2 360 offers a high-resolution screen for under $500

It's been over a year since Samsung released its shiny red Galaxy Chromebook 2. Its next shot at this device is now available for purchase, and it's something, well, a bit different.

The new Galaxy Chromebook 2, as far as I can tell, is not nearly as red as its predecessor. (It's pretty black and white.) But it does have a 360-degree hinge, and is more affordable with a starting price of $429.99, making it perhaps a more...practical purchase on multiple fronts.

What's most interesting here is the display. Not only is this Chromebook 16:10 (a good aspect ratio — thumbs-up), but it also comes with a 2560 x 1600 screen. That's certainly going to be one of the highest-resolution screens you can get at a $430 price point.

This is still a...

I tried to duo with ‘Let me solo her’ in Elden Ring, and it didn’t go well

Posted: 15 Apr 2022 02:38 PM PDT

Elden Ring
Malenia, Goddess of Rot (AKA one of the toughest bosses in the game)

Update, 5:38PM ET, April 15th: I didn't expect this twist. IGN spoke with a player claiming to be the real "Let me solo her," and apparently, I played with an imposter, of which there may be many. While the person who joined my game did, in fact, solo her, the player speaking to IGN said that they don't mind if others join the battle with them. He told IGN: "I always wear a jar on my head and I do not bail on any Malenia boss fights. If the host or other summon decides to help, I have no problems whatsoever." While this revelation is weighing heavily on my psyche, my enjoyment from watching someone single-handedly beat this boss remains.

Before I reached Malenia, a notoriously tough boss in Elden Ring, I had already heard a bit about...

No More Heroes 3 is coming to PC, PlayStation, and Xbox in fall 2022

Posted: 15 Apr 2022 02:03 PM PDT

Games publisher Xseed announced via Twitter that No More Heroes 3, which was released for the Nintendo Switch in August 2021, is coming to the PC, PS4, PS5, and Xbox consoles in the fall. Presumably, digital versions will be available, but the sole picture shared by Xseed shows limited-edition physical copies of the game that include an art book, a faux license plate, and a soundtrack CD adorned with the most obvious Akira reference. Xseed hasn't yet shared a price for No More Heroes 3 on these new platforms.

Fans of the No More Heroes series will definitely want to play the latest installment, which my colleague Sam Byford says is a worthy follow-up to the original Nintendo Wii title. Its stylish, fluid combat is back (along with the...
