The humble mouse has been through some changes in its time. When it’s not adding extra buttons all over the place it’s twisting your wrist into unlikely positions or looking like whatever the Mad Catz RAT was.

At the start of May, president Donald Trump thanked Michael and Susan Dell (yes, those Dells) for donating over $6 billion to 'Trump Accounts,' reportedly going toward at least 25 million children in America. In that thank-you speech, he urged listeners to "go out and buy a Dell." That was after Trump filed that he purchased somewhere between $1 million and $5 million in Dell stocks, and just before the...

That's in no small part down to the fact that both of them have great voice actors: Tom McKay for Henry and Luke Dale for Capon, who both turn in fantastic and memorable performances.Just, not memorable enough for the games industry, I guess,...

The 8 GB version of the new RTX 5060 Ti is a lot cheaper than the 16 GB one, and while the extra VRAM will be useful in the future, it's absolutely not worth paying $240 more for it, despite the clear benefits. This is a great little GPU for the money and the best-performing 8 GB card you can buy. You will need to have a free Newegg account...

For years now, security researchers have been preparing to fight against cryptanalytic attacks from future quantum computers. But Microsoft has had to push up its timeline, as those attacks seem much closer than otherwise anticipated. As reported by Bleepingcomputer, Microsoft recently published a blog post informing users of its new deadline. Microsoft plans to accelerate its Quantum Safe Program (QSP) to be quantum-apocalypse-ready by 2029. Microsoft says that post-quantum cryptography...
