Tesla starts delivering the Model Y

[ad_1] The Model Y shares a lot in common with the Model 3 sedan, but it’s arguably a more reasonably priced alternative to the Model X. You don’t get the X’s performance, more elaborate in-cabin tech or those signature falcon wing doors, but you do get considerably more room than the 3 with an option […]

Samsung Galaxy S20 and S20+ review: Smaller is better

[ad_1] Performance The cameras are perhaps the biggest difference between the S20 Ultra and the S20 and S20+. All three phones pack the same Snapdragon 865 processor with 12GB of RAM. There is an upgraded Ultra with 16GB, but that’s kinda overkill when laptops usually come with between 8 and 16GB of RAM. As I […]

Seagate’s Xbox Series X storage card has 1TB of space, but no price

[ad_1] The company hasn’t provided pricing or a release date, but we’d expect the Storage Expansion Card to be expensive when it ships. PCIe SSDs in this class are expensive as a general rule (Samsung’s 1TB 970 Evo Plus is on sale for $200 on Amazon as we write this), and making one available in […]

[ad_1] Resident Evil 3 was announced just three months ago, yet it will be out on April 3rd, so it feels like Capcom has been rushing the game to market, but the game has actually been in development for over three years. It seems like the publisher knew it had a hit on its hands […]

When you take a whiff of something, molecules stimulate olfactory cells in your nose. Those cells send signals to the brain’s olfactory system, which then fires off electrical pulses. The researchers were able to mimic that circuitry […]
