    An Amazon delivery drone snagged and cut an internet cable in Texas last week.

    Following two Amazon drone crashes in Arizona last month, the FAA is investigating another incident in Waco, Texas, according to CNBC. After delivering a package the drone “got tangled in a nearby internet cable” before shearing the wire and performing a “safe contingent landing.” There were no injuries or widespread internet outages.

    Anbernic’s budget-friendly Nintendo DS clone might not be a bargain.

    The company managed to keep its dual-screen handheld priced below $100 when preorders launched earlier this month, but reviewers are finding it comes with a lot of bugs and performance issues. Russ Crandall calls it a “half-baked mess” in a 42-minute video about why he thinks the Anbernic RG DS is a disappointment.

    Playing Doom using a printed receipt as your screen is utterly chaotic.

    Gamers have found ways to play Doom on all sorts of devices, but swapping your screen for an Epson thermal printer spitting out frames as fast as it can on receipt paper could be the worst. According to Bringus Studios, it can take up to four seconds to see your movements appear on the printout.

    Bambu Lab’s new P2S 3D printer is now available in the US without a price increase.

    After launching everywhere else last month, the company warned that US pricing “may differ” due to tariffs once the Bambu Lab P2S was released in the US, but it turns out that’s not the case. The 3D printer is available now for $549 on its own, or $799 bundled with a multi-filament feeder.

    You can already buy cheap copies of Apple’s $230 crossbody iPhone sock.

    Both versions of the 3D-knitted iPhone Pocket quickly sold out earlier this month. Apple hasn’t announced any plans to restock the limited edition accessory created in collaboration with Japanese designer Issey Miyake, but there already plenty of reproductions on sites like AliExpress selling for much less than the real thing.

    Stop using these knock-off copies of Dyson hair dryers immediately, the CPSC warns.

    There’s no official recall yet, but the CPSC says that seven hair dryer models sold through DHGate.com that look similar to the Dyson Supersonic and Supersonic r can “cause death or serious injury due to electrocution and shock hazards” because they lack an “immersion protection device.” Stop using them immediately and cut their power cords.
