Ember a maszk mögött – Better Call Saul (6. évad)

by Énekes Gábor

Fekete-fehér képek, film noirokat idéző hangulat, múlttal való számvetés – melankolikus, egyben felemelő véget ért a hat évadot megélt Better Call Saul. A simlis ügyvédről szóló történet újabb mérföldkő a sorozatok történelmében. A Better Call Saul utolsó epizódjával lezárult minden idők egyik legjobb (de kétségkívül legkiválóbb spin-off) sorozata. 2013-ban, amikor véget ért a hatalmas népszerűségnek […]

Megszűnik a Revolut Junior, a helyére rögtön megjött a Revolut

by AdamKovacs

Átnevezésre került a Revolut Junior, a fintech 18 éven aluliaknak szánt megoldása, amely a jövőben Revolut <18 néven érhető el.

Megszűnik a Revolut Junior, a helyére rögtön megjött a Revolut <18

A Revolut <18 célja továbbra is, hogy segítsen a tinédzsereknek a pénzügyi szokásaik kialakításában, amelyben a szülők is be vannak vonva, hiszen ők menedzselik a számlát.

A Revolut <18 fiók 6 éves kortól 17 évesig (a 18. születésnap betöltéséig) használható. Ez idő alatt a gyerek is kaphat bankkártyát, az alkalmazásban követheti a költéseit, megtakaríthat. A szülők nem csak pénzt küldhetnek neki, hanem különböző kihívásokat is létrehozhatnak, amelyek teljesítésével pénz járhat számukra. 

Megszűnik a Revolut Junior, a helyére rögtön megjött a Revolut <18

A Revolut Standard csomagjában továbbra is csak 1 gyerek fiók adható hozzá és egy szülő tudja kezelni a gyerek számláját. A Plus és Premium csomagok esetén 2 gyerek kezelhető, hozzáadhatók a célok, kihívások. Metal felhasználók esetén 5 gyerek kezelhető.

Audi will build F1 engines, entering the sport in 2026

Audi will race in Formula 1 in 2026 with engines built at its Audi Sport factory in Neustadt, Germany. After years of rumors, Friday's announcement was not entirely unexpected; in May then-Volkswagen Group CEO Herbert Diess confirmed it would enter the sport in four years when the next set of engine regulations come into effect.

VW Group will actually fund two F1 programs, one with Audi and a second with Porsche, which is in the process of acquiring a 50 percent stake in Red Bull Technologies. The Porsche announcement was supposed to take place at Red Bull's home race in Austria in July, but the sport only ratified the 2026 engine rules in mid-August.

That deal may still need some i's dotted and t's crossed, but with the new rules now confirmed, Audi has taken the opportunity of this week's Belgian Grand Prix to reveal its show car and to formally launch its F1 effort.

Polestar’s O2 concept will become the Polestar 6 electric roadster, due out 2026

by Andrew J. Hawkins

Polestar announced that its O2 electric roadster concept has graduated to a production model as the Polestar 6, with assembly expected to kick off in 2026.

The O2, which was first unveiled earlier this year, was originally designed to showcase the automaker’s bonded aluminum platform, which Polestar produces in-house, as well as some quirkier features like an integrated drone for aerial filming. The roadster is the company’s second concept to get upgraded to an official production model after Polestar said it was transforming its Precept concept into the Polestar 5 in 2024.

Lego’s new motorized lighthouse has a working fresnel lens

by Sean Hollister
Image: Lego

In 1822, Augustin Fresnel invented a lens made of ringed prisms that could concentrate beams of light more effectively than reflectors or huge convex pieces of glass. These days, they’re used in spotlights and even most VR headsets. But originally, he designed them for lighthouses — it’s the invention that’s said to have saved a million ships — and today, Lego has announced a motorized lighthouse with its very own fresnel lens.

Image: Lego

Make no mistake: it’s a toy — and, at $300 for the 2,065-piece set, a pretty expensive one, too! But Lego’s new light-up Motorized Lighthouse is packed with clever touches, like most of its modern sets aimed at adult budgets. It’ll go on sale on September 1st.

I’m particularly...

Buttons beat touchscreens in cars, and now there’s data to prove it

by Jonathan M. Gitlin

It's probably a little early to be warning of extinction, but in some new cars, buttons are becoming hard to find. Given that a screen has to go into the dashboard anyway (thanks to things like backup camera requirements) and the fact that people increasingly won't consider a car without Android Auto or Apple CarPlay, touchscreens make life easier for automakers in terms of design and assembly.

It's just that they don't make life easier for drivers. Instead, we're treated to bad interfaces that don't create muscle memory but instead distract us while we should be driving. And now, Swedish car publication Vi Bilägare has the data to prove it.

VB tested 11 new cars alongside a 2005 Volvo C70, timing how long it took to perform a list of tasks in each car. These included turning on the seat heater, increasing the cabin temperature, turning on the defroster, adjusting the radio, resetting the trip computer, turning off the screen, and dimming the instruments.

Launched before the pandemic, this program has only become more relevant.

There’s no way Milan could have known what was coming, but in the years leading up to the pandemic, the city was preparing as if it had seen the future.

Just in time for Global Running Day, Garmin is introducing two new running watches to its Forerunner lineup: the $349.99 Forerunner 255 and the $499.99 Forerunner 955. Both GPS watches sport multi-band GPS and new racing features, including a race widget. The Forerunner 955 will also come in a Solar version, which, as the name suggests, adds solar charging for even longer battery life.

The Forerunner 255 is a lightweight, midrange running watch that builds on the Forerunner 245. It’ll come in two sizes. The standard Forerunner 255 will measure 46mm and weigh 49 grams, while the smaller 255S will measure 41mm and weigh 32 grams. There’ll also be a Forerunner 255 Music and 255S Music variants, which will be able to store up to 500 songs on...

Microsoft looking at ways to “validate” Xbox discs for disc-drive-free consoles

While Microsoft's Xbox Series S gives a lot of gaming horsepower for its price, one thing it doesn't provide is a disc drive to access any of the physical Xbox games you might own. Microsoft seems interested in working around this problem, though, as the company has applied for a patent that can provide "software ownership validation of optical discs using [a] secondary device."

That mouthful of a title describes a patent application Microsoft first filed in November 2020 but which was published by the United States Patent and Trademark Office just last week (as noticed by Game Rant). And while it doesn't appear that the patent has been granted yet, the application provides more evidence that Microsoft is trying to find a way to bring games trapped on legacy discs into gaming's increasingly disc-free future.

A number of technical options

When it comes to the technical details of how this validation process would work, the patent application is so vague as to be practically useless. The only constant across its examples is that there are two separate devices, at least one of which has a disc drive that can read "an optical disc comprising the electronic content" and "validate the user's ownership of the electronic content" (e.g., an Xbox 360, Xbox One, or Xbox Series X).

Google Chrome is getting built-in virtual credit cards

by Mitchell Clark
Virtual cards are part of Chrome’s autofill system. | Image: Google

Google is adding a feature to Chrome’s autofill system called Virtual Card Numbers, which will let you hide your credit or debit card number while making purchases on the web. Google says the feature will help make it easy to securely buy things on sites that don't support options like Google or Apple Pay.

It’s basically the same experience as using Chrome Autofill to enter in your credit card details but with an added layer of security. If you give your card number to a vendor and they abuse it, you then have to contact your bank to reverse the charges and cancel your card, which is an inconvenience at best. That won’t happen if you use Google’s virtual cards, Bill Ready, Google’s president of commerce and payments, told The Verge in...

Winamp will sell a non-fungible token (NFT) linked to its media player’s original 1997 graphical skin, becoming the latest company to blend nostalgia and crypto. Winamp will put the NFT up for auction through OpenSea between May 16th and May 22nd, followed by a separate sale of 1997 total NFTs based on 20 artworks derived from the original skin. The proceeds will go to the Winamp Foundation, which promises to donate them to charity projects, starting with the Belgian nonprofit Music Fund.

The NFT sale appears to be a combination of a publicity move and a fundraising effort. Winamp is sourcing the derivative art NFTs by asking artists to submit Winamp-based works between now and April 15th, then giving selected artists 20 percent of the...

When a seismic network failed, citizen science stepped in

by Ars Contributors

On the afternoon of January 12, 2010, a magnitude-7.0 earthquake struck about 16 miles west of Haiti’s capital of Port-au-Prince. Among the most significant seismic disasters recorded, more than 100,000 people lost their lives. The damage—costing billions of dollars—rendered more than a million people homeless and destroyed much of the region’s infrastructure. The earth tore at the relatively shallow depth of about 8 miles, toppling poorly constructed buildings.

At the time, Haiti had no national seismic network. After the devastating event, scientists installed expensive seismic stations around the country, but that instrumentation requires funding, care, and expertise; today, those stations are no longer functional. In 2019, seismologists opted to try something different and far less expensive—citizen seismology via Raspberry Shakes.

On the morning of August 14, 2021, amidst a summer of COVID-19 lockdowns and political unrest, another earthquake struck, providing the opportunity to test just how useful these Raspberry-pi powered devices could be. In a paper published on Thursday in Science, researchers described using the Raspberry Shake data to demonstrate that this citizen science network successfully monitored both the mainshock and subsequent aftershocks and provided data integral to untangling what turned out to be a less-than-simple rending of the earth.
