The Nintendo Switch 2 is nearing its launch, and there is a major feature that may be missing when it’s docked. While we do know some of the specifications for the Switch 2, its release date isn’t until June 5th and thus the world isn’t yet privy to all of the nuances. Why does this matter? Well, a user on the ResetEra forum spotted a change in wording for the Switch 2 that suggests it may not feature variable refresh rate (VRR) support while docked. Previously, Nintendo’s description explicitly mentioned VRR and the ability for 120 fps on TVs that are compatible. In the most recent rendition of this tidbit from Nintendo, however, it removed any traces of “VRR” from the description. This is for the TV mode only, so the assumption would be that VRR would still work in handheld mode, but not in docked mode for some reason. Gamers were excited to finally be able to experience higher refresh rates such as 120 fps when docked, together with 4K resolution and VRR support. To be clear, this currently is only an assu

A recent report of a highly sophisticated phishing attack exploiting Google services targeting a lead developer at Ethereum Foundation, Nick Johnson, proves that internet users need to take more precautions to protect themselves from social engineering tactics like phishing. The attack’s sophistication lies in hackers’ ability to make every element look highly legitimate. In this attack, hackers circumvented the DomainKeys Identified Mail (DKIM) signature checks, which are designed to verify if an email is actually from the acclaimed domain. Due to this bypass, Google will not warn you about an impending cyberattack. In Nick’s case, the phishing came from no-reply@accounts.google.com, an email with a legitimate domain. The phishing link, however, has “sites.google.com” in its URL. How could this be possible? Hackers created an imitation support portal page with sites.google.com, originally designed to help Google account owners create basic websites. A link to the support page is then embedded in the phishing
On paper, it’s hard to quibble with NVIDIA’s pricing on its newly minted GeForce RTX 5060 Ti (see our review), even with much of the uplift over last-gen coming from DLSS 4 with multi-frame generation. The 16GB model at a $429 MSRP is actually $70 less than the launch price of the previous generation GeForce RTX 4060 Ti, while the 8GB’s $379 starting price is $20 cheaper than the card it’s replacing. In practice? It’s another hard-to-find GPU, and some listings on eBay are priced upwards of $800. We’re not sure whether to laugh or cry. Either way, nobody should be paying a 2x markup over NVIDIA’s baseline MSRP for what’s supposed to a semi-affordable mid-range graphics card. And so far, it doesn’t look like people are—taking a gander at completed auctions that attracted a buyer, we only see one, a factory overclocked Zotac GeForce RTX 5060 Ti Twin Edge 16GB model that sold for $650. That’s still a 51.5% markup over the starting MSRP. Even accounting for the usual premium attached to partner models sporting cu
With the aid of NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), scientists have found compelling evidence that biological life is present and active on a planet called K2-18b, located some 124 light years from Earth. The team was able to determine dimethyl sulfide and dimethyl disulfide—gases normally produced by biological activity on Earth—in the exoplanet’s atmosphere as it passed across its parent star. While these gases could come from other sources, scientists are bookmarking K2-18b for closer observations with future tools more sensitive than JWST. Life beyond Earth. This idea has captured minds for ages, sparking just as many debates as there are searches into space. Practically all of our extraterrestrial missions carry some kind of hope of finding little green men or, at the very least, signs of simple organic life, from Voyager 1 to Mars rover Curiosity. Adding to that mountain of possibility is a new peer-reviewed report (via the Astrophysical Journal Letters) which claims to have found the strongest ev
