I’ll be blunt: $1,500 is a lot of money to spend on the Razr Ultra, a clamshell phone that folds in half. In fact, it’s a lot of money to spend on any smartphone, especially when a Galaxy S26 Ultra or iPhone 17 Pro Max costs less and still leaves a few hundred dollars in your pocket, or throwing in a couple of hundred bucks can get you a full-fledged book-style foldable.  For me, the Razr Ultra doesn’t quite make a strong case at $1,500. In isolation, it’s a genuinely impressive flip phone that gets all the basics right and…

Westworld is coming back to the big screen!

I hate scalpers. I especially hate scalpers when they swarm gaming hardware that already has limited availability. They buy it before regular customers and gamers can get a fair shot, and then relist it at cartoonish prices for the people who actually wanted to use it. We’ve seen this issue time and time again, but Valve’s latest move might be the best anti-scalper weapon I’ve seen in a while. Steam’s database now suggests Valve may already have a reservation queue system prepared for the upcoming Steam Machine. The discovery reportedly comes from a recent Steam update spotted by user Pepeizq,…

Every morning, millions of people open Wordle, stare at a blank grid, and spend a few quiet minutes locked in a private battle with the five letters. There is no host narrating your every move, no studio audience gasping when you waste a guess on a word, and absolutely nobody cheering you on. Just you, the word, and the slightly smug satisfaction of getting it right under three attempts. However, The New York Times wants to change that by bringing it to NBC primetime. Wordle is becoming a game show, hosted by Today anchor Savannah Guthrie and produced by Jimmy…
