It all started with a joke on the online doom pit that is X (formerly Twitter) and ended up with a free $200 bonus for Nothing Phone 2a buyers. Or at least that’s what it seems like based on the social media exchange between Nothing CEO Carl Pei and Perplexity AI chief Aravind Srinivas. So, here’s the deal. The Nothing Phone 2a was launched at $349, went down to as low as $250 in India with a limited-time deal, and then Nothing served a blockbuster $200 freebie. That complimentary perk comes in the form of a subscription to the Pro…
A major traffic jam has taken place in Al Quoz, with traffic being held back for nearly two kilometres. A trailer has broken down near Latifa Bint Hamdan Street, causing delays.

The hold-up has since been clearing, with Google Maps now showing a delay of 5 minutes at the road in front of Al Khail Mall. Motorists can use alternative routes to avoid the gridlock.
Locals in a city in western Japan have been told not to approach or touch a missing cat that fell into a vat of dangerous chemicals and then scampered off into the night. An employee at a metal plating plant in Fukuyama arrived for work on Monday morning to find feline paw prints leading away from the container, the firm said. Grainy security camera footage released by the company shows the furry fugitive fleeing from the factory, apparently unharmed. The vat, three metres (10 feet) deep, contained hexavalent chromium, which is carcinogenic and can cause skin inflammation. “We immediately alerted…

Coming nearly straight from the Oscars with a truck full of Kenergy, Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt rolled into the South By Southwest Film and TV Festival to premiere The Fall Guy, an affectionate, action-fuelled ode to stunt work and the dedicated professionals that throw their bodies into filmmaking. The Fall Guy, directed by stuntman-turned-filmmaker David Leitch, was perhaps the most anticipated world premiere to hit this year’s edition of SXSW. Given that Blunt and Gosling were both coming off Sunday’s Oscars where they were each nominated — and where Gosling’s I’m Just Ken brought the house down — the…
Star Indian wicketkeeper-batsman Rishabh Pant says that doctors raised the prospect of amputating his leg after the serious car crash that threatened to end his cricket career.

Baba is You, one of the most mind-bending indie puzzle games I’ve ever played turns five years old today. Released for PC and Nintendo Switch on March 13, 2019, it’s a puzzle game where players manipulate the rules of a level in their favor to meet a win condition. That may seem simple, but Baba is You ramps up considerably in complexity as it goes on, enabling some genuinely head-scratching puzzles that will have you rethinking what’s possible within the game’s mechanics. Five years later, I haven’t played another game quite like Baba is You. Since its release, it has…
UAE companies are offering a slew of incentives and resources to their employees to help them carry out their religious obligations with ease during the holy month of Ramadan.
