Steam code screenshots posted by @gabefollower on X appear to show ‘SteamGPT’ and ‘SteamGPTSummary’ working on support-related tasks. Both seem to be internal tools used for things like task management or pulling account details, such as a player’s trust score and account age.

The latest beta update for WhatsApp on Android and iOS includes the “phased rollout” of usernames, which have been in the works for years and allow users to keep their phone number private.

While thousands of smartphones and cameras were trained on the sky on April 1st capturing the historic launch of Artemis II, Redditor Cambot72 recorded it on a Nintendo 3DS XL. The 0.3-megapixel footage has some retro Apollo vibes, and you can download the original version to watch in 3D if you’ve still got a 3DS.

As Artemis II sends back some wallpaper-worthy photos of the Moon and a solar eclipse, it may have given Samsung some inspiration for its next generation of smartphone cameras.

The Elec reports that Samsung Display secured a three-year exclusivity deal for folding iPhone screens, with the maybe-delayed, maybe-not-delayed Apple foldable due later this year. The question is whether Apple is getting the nearly creaseless panels Samsung showed off at CES, which it will need to match the Oppo Find N6.

I’ve been looking for a new desktop wallpaper for a while, and thanks to the Artemis II astronauts I’ve finally found one. NASA’s stunning images of the Earth and the Moon are great for OLED monitors in particular, providing out of this world black levels. Literally.

The New York Times thinks it found the elusive person behind the pseudonym credited with creating Bitcoin. It relied on a combination of textual analysis and in-person tells to narrow a pool of suspects “from 34,000 down to one”.

The app, which lets you do things like see your recent chats and send a message using dictation from the CarPlay dashboard, was recently in beta but has now rolled out widely, as reported by MacRumors.

Muck Rack collected millions of responses from ChatGPT, Gemini, and other AI platforms to try to measure which news outlets and writers LLMs tend to cite the most. The data, as reported by Press Gazette, is fascinating: niche and little known publications seem to be showing up frequently (along with people like Jim Cramer at CNBC). It’s an AI visibility rat race out there.

The Audible Story House will only be open during the month of May, featuring story “tiles” that visitors can use to sample audiobooks, along with seven “listening spaces” equipped with Sony headphones and Dolby Atmos surround sound. Here are some renderings of what the pop-up might look like:

Nikkei Asia reported earlier that the foldable iPhone could hit shipment delays due to engineering setbacks, but Gurman says that the phone will be announced with the iPhone 18 Pro lineup. However, he says supply of the foldable iPhone might initially be limited.

As part of the tentative deal, Amazon will ship 20 percent fewer packages through the Postal Service, The Wall Street Journal reports. An earlier WSJ report had said that Amazon was looking to cut “at least two-thirds” of its postal volume with the USPS.

As expected from the trademark filing late last year, Sony’s RGB LED technology will be called “True RGB” and is coming this spring. The new TV (Bravia 10, or better yet, Bravia X?) has been impressive in demos. We’ll see soon how it compares to competitors’ RGB TVs this year.

“This update improves network performance, allows streaming up to 4K resolutions, and allows you to dynamically adjust the curve of the display in panoramic mode,” Valve says. But the app doesn’t support VR content — it’s intended for streaming 2D games.

Kalshi will have paid product placement on the biggest news channel in the US, according to The Hollywood Reporter (though Fox reportedly won’t use Kalshi for elections coverage). The network is the latest news organization to jump on the prediction market bandwagon: The Associated Press and CNN have deals, not to mention Kalshi and Polymarket’s vast influencer and advertising operations.

The Verge’s Allison Johnson called the original 2 x 3-inch version of the Polaroid Hi-Print the best instant photo printer in 2022. It’s still available for $99.99, but Polaroid has announced a new $119.99 version that churns out larger 3 x 3-inch square photos and doubles as a self-standing frame for your favorite print.
