It doesn’t matter if China hacked Equifax
[ad_1] It was a message of PR reprieve for the skinsuits at Equifax, who spend their life cycles profiting from tracking and trading our personal and financial information (and we’re powerless to stop them). Especially now as we’re seeing reports about how four Chinese hackers “took down Equifax.” That sure sounds a lot better (for […]
Engadget Podcast: Breaking down the Samsung fest and MWC mess
[ad_1] A bunch of things in tech got the proverbial nails slammed into their coffins this week.

The Morning After: You can finally buy a ‘Nintendo PlayStation’ prototype
[ad_1] ‘It’s all about the light.’Researchers find a way to 3D print tiny objects in seconds Swiss researchers have developed a technique that forms a solid resin structure in one go, rather than segment by segment, as is the case with traditional 3D printing. They do it by illuminating the photosensitive resin from multiple angles, […]
NVIDIA cuts its outlook by $100 million due to 2019 coronavirus
[ad_1] NVIDIA opted out of attending MWC 2020 due to coronavirus-related safety concerns before the organization behind the event decided to cancel it altogether. That’s not the only tangible impact the virus has had on the industry, though. Apple had to close all its retail stores in mainland China out of an “abundance of caution.” […]
Bidding for the ‘Nintendo PlayStation’ prototype is already over $200k
[ad_1] We’ve already had a chance to play around with the “Super Disc” system, but now that they’ve decided to sell it, getting hold of the artifact yourself is going to be expensive — after being live for about 24 hours the price has reached $205,000.

Yamaha’s tiny wireless guitar amp gets everything right but the price
[ad_1] The THR remains the undisputed king of looks. Part of its allure is the retro styling that’s more reminiscent of a piece of stereo equipment than a guitar amp. The outside is a matte, cream-colored metal with a Y pattern punched out. (I’ll admit I much prefer the herringbone of the original THR.) The […]
Samsung makes too damn many phones
[ad_1] At the same time, Samsung broke tradition. Instead of phasing out last year’s flagships, it’s cutting the prices for the S10s, so they now start at $599 instead of $899.99. That means you can continue to buy the S10e, S10 and S10+, which are still great phones. In fact, the company’s Senior Manager of […]
