Facebook changed its logo — see if you can tell the difference

The old logo (left) vs. the new one (right). You might be able to guess the meme I’m linking to before you click it. | Logos: Meta; Image by Jay Peters / The VergeMeta is updating Facebook’s “identity system,” and that includes a dramatically refreshed logo.Just kidding! It’s basically exactly the same as the last one, except the blue is a darker blue, and the lowercase “f” has a few subtle tweaks. You can see the new logo next to the most recent one in the image at the top of this post.Here’s Meta’s explanation for the changes from a Wednesday blog post:Our intention was to create a refreshed design of the Facebook logo that was bolder, electric and everlasting. Each of the distinctive, new refinements drive greater harmony across the entire design as a key element of the app’s identity. We’ve done this by incorporating a more confident expression of Facebook’s core blue color that is built to…

ChatGPT finally got the memory transparency feature it needed — it still isn’t enough to beat Claude

This Altoids tin ESP32 computer comes with a keyboard, and yes, it runs DOOM

Did you know that there's an entire scene around stuffing chips into an Altoids tin and making it do all sorts of things? We've seen it before with the Raspberry Pi, where someone even created a Kickstarter to help get an Altoid tin console up and running. There's something about...

I stopped using Claude for coding, but now I can’t live without it for everything else

Up until recently, Claude was only spoken about in hushed tones in developer communities. It was the quiet favorite of people who lived in their terminals, and the biggest reason for that was just how good Anthropic's models were at coding. To everyone else, Claude was either invisible or vaguely...

Microsoft has spent six months turning Windows Terminal into a rival to Warp, and it’s working

For the last few years, Warp has largely dominated the modern terminal space. The command blocks, AI command generation, agentic mode, Warp Drive, and other QoL features all made it a popular choice, and when Warp arrived natively on Windows early last year, it made the default Windows Terminal look...

Tariffs essentially erased its affordability, making it more expensive to own, and a battery recall made it dangerous to park indoors.

Your SSD has built-in maintenance tools that Windows keeps hidden from you

Modern-day SSDs are fast enough for most of us to not really think about their upkeep every day. Back when SSD technology was new, everyone treated their SSDs like fragile glass, sharing notes and advice on how to prolong the life of their drive by any means unnecessary.

I self-host my PC game library with Moonlight instead of paying for a second PC or GeForce Now

Nothing ever quite beats couch gaming. That's why I often prefer playing on my PS5 Pro sitting under the TV. However, a problem that kept nagging me over and over again was that most of the experiences I wanted simply lived on my desktop PC instead. High ray-tracing, path tracing,...

You don’t need a 4K monitor to make DLSS 4.5 worth it

I totally understand why many people think enabling DLSS makes the most sense on a 4K monitor. At native 4K, you're almost always GPU-bound even if you have a flagship card like the RTX 5090, so DLSS is a great way to avoid paying the performance tax that comes with...

Claude is still the best agentic coding tool, but Anthropic’s tightening grip is the best argument yet for going local

Claude is typically considered the best agentic coding tool on the market right now. There are plenty of developers I know who use it daily, and Anthropic has spent the last year and a half giving plenty of reasons for that confidence. Opus 4.7 just launched last month, Claude Code...

I stopped using motherboard audio after one cheap USB DAC solved every problem I had

For years, I treated motherboard audio as one of those PC features that simply existed in the background. As long as sound came through my headphones and my microphone worked well enough for Discord calls, I never paid much attention to the audio side of my setup. I spent more...
