Not great Bob.

Competition is tight in the mid-range mirrorless camera segment right now. Canon's new 33MP EOS R6 III beats Sony's A7 V for video creation, but the A7 V is better for photos. Either way, both are great cameras www.engadget.com/cameras/cano...

X's head of product says the platform will soon feature "starterpacks" to make it easier for people to find other users to follow.. wonder where I've heard that before

Oh, so that's why Sony TVs weren't at CES www.engadget.com/home/home-th... I wrote this a few years ago, it still stands www.engadget.com/can-sony-rec...

good video on how cars are getting increasingly stupid and dangerous to drive, much prompted by tesla “innovation”.

If you're confused by the whole Micro RGB TV thing this year, @stevedent.bsky.social wrote up a great explainer www.engadget.com/home/home-th...

In a study following 23 million people age 18-59 (pretty young) for 4 years…despite the fact that the ones who got the COVID vaccine were overall older and sicker at baseline, they not only had 74% lower risk of dying from COVID than the unvaccinated but 25% lower risk of dying from any other cause!

Hey George Clooney is French now

I recently got a chance to try out a Toyota Prius Prime for two months and it was a great (and cheap) experience. But hybrids still aren't as economical to operate as they could be www.engadget.com/transportati...

The US drone ban has now kicked in, it doesn't affect sales or operation of existing drones, only future models

My thoughts on Avatar: Fire and Ash: It's fun, but ultimately more of the same. I'm hoping we eventually see this franchise take bigger narrative swings, and that Cameron gets to play outside of Pandora again www.engadget.com/entertainmen...

No. Too on the nose.

As we mourn Rob Reiner, don’t skip this: he was, pretty much, personally responsible for overturning California’s Prop 8 banning same sex marriage. www.hollywoodreporter.com/business/bus...

The cultural impact of Rob Reiner cannot be understated. Legend isn't big enough a word. It goes to 11. You can't handle the truth. As you wish. I'll have what she's having. I'm your number one fan. You guys wanna see a dead body? The very idea of a bucket list. The West Wing. All from his movies.

The human cost of Trump's gutting of USAID: By the time Tor Top’s mother was sick with cholera, the nearby clinic had been shuttered for weeks. He bundled her into a canoe & paddled toward the nearest hospital, 8 hours away. Less than halfway into the journey, his mother died. New, @propublica.org

This Sunday, in the presence of Lou Doillon and Charlotte Gainsbourg, the City of Paris is naming a footbridge over the Canal Saint-Martin in honor of Jane Birkin. Salut!

Michael C. Rockefeller got shipwrecked in 1963, washed up on an island, and was promptly eaten by cannibals.

cannot begin to tell you how happy I am to have stumbled upon the Paris building shared by metal music fans and the union for metal workers, what a delight

How dare the EU enforce its laws

It’s going to be a fight for Netflix to get this through, and there are definitely issues around how they treat theaters and physical media…. But at least it’s not the Elllisons www.engadget.com/entertainmen... With a weak theatrical market, there’s potential for Netflix to do something interesting

Insane but true fact: making US roads as safe as Canadian, Australian, or European roads would save more lives than eliminating murder from the US.

Over the past several months, I've been working on a turntable buyer's guide for @engadget.com. To limit the field, we set the price at $600 and under. Here are my initial picks: www.engadget.com/audio/best-r...

Six people died from tampered Tylenol and the company pulled 30 million bottles off the market. ChatGPT is accused of urging seven people towards suicide, and OpenAI just assures us they’re still working out the kinks. Billions in investment, zero accountability.

I’m just saying, I directed a movie for basically no money that debuted in the 90s on rotten tomatoes and got distribution with no stars attached, I did not get a single call and couldn’t even find a rep as a director. This was not the case for any of the male directors I went to AFI with.

Putting AI in space may sound like a sci-fi nightmare, but Google is thinking about the idea with a research endeavor called Project Suncatcher.

With support for Apple DockKit, DJI's Osmo Mobile 8 will make it easier to track yourself while on live streams, Zoom calls etc. Oh, and it'll now also track your cat!
