Oxford’s COVID-19 Vaccine Creates Immune Response In The Young And Old

Thieves Try To Steal A Tesla, Gets Trolled By Its Owner Instead

Apple claims that the device allows users to charge the new iPhone 12s at speeds of up to 15W, twice the charging speed compared to regular wireless charging on current iPhones.

Some Claim The iPhone 12’s Frame Is Too Sharp And Are Cutting People’s Hands

Nintendo Switch Pro Could Use a Mini LED Display

Due to the fact that the current Nintendo Switch can be played on your big screen TV, we suppose not many people paid too much attention or cared too much about the display quality on the console itself. While it might not necessarily be the best display we’ve seen, it’s more than adequate for most gamers.However, Nintendo is hoping to change that with a future new model. There have been […]

It Looks Like Apple’s AirPower Is ‘Dead’…Again

Canon Could Be Working On A Lens Attachment For Smartphones

Twitch Suspends DragonForce Guitarist’s Channel For Playing His Own Music

Given the sheer number of videos that are uploaded and streamed, it would not be realistic to expect that platforms like Twitch or YouTube have human moderators to moderate every single one.

Your Amazon Prime Videos Don’t Actually Belong To You

Aside from being able to stream movies digitally, companies have also allowed users to purchase digital copies of movies, but therein lies an interesting legal question – do these digital downloads mean that you own them?

Hitman 3 Announced For Nintendo Switch

The Nintendo Switch’s hardware isn’t quite as powerful compared to the likes of the PS5 Pro or the Xbox One X, and as such, games do not necessarily run at the same settings compared to other consoles, and also as a result, not all games are necessarily compatible as well.
