RPGs on portable consoles are always a treat; you can grind levels or farm for materials while you're traveling, waiting for something, or just a quick session during bedtime. So, when I heard that my favorite modern RPG had gotten Steam Deck verification before its PC debut, you know I had to report on it. If you, too, share my desire to play Final Fantasy VII Rebirth on the Steam Deck during a cold winter's day, then I have some news for you.

Sketch and Figma are two of the popular UI/UX design tools out there. While Figma’s free plan feels restrictive, Sketch is an outright paid app. Being a freelancer or a newcomer in the field, the monthly subscription fees for design tools can really put a dent in your budget. That’s where Penpot comes in, which offers a powerful yet affordable solution to anyone who doesn’t compromise on quality.

If you're planning on building a new PC, chances are you're looking at AMD CPUs and motherboards. Of course, there are lots of different options out there, so in order to make the best selection, you're going to first want to figure out what you're going to be using this PC for before buying all your parts.

Raspberry Pi devices are perfect for projects that involve live TV streaming. They’re small, energy-efficient, and work with many different accessories. They can become powerful media stations when you put them with a good TV tuner and antenna.

Screenshot: SpaceX SpaceX successfully caught its Super Heavy booster for the second time. During Starship’s 7th test flight from Boca Chica, Texas, Super Heavy descended into the launch tower’s “chopstick” arms, allowing it to grab the booster.Despite the successful catch, SpaceX lost communications with the Starship spacecraft mounted atop the booster. “It successfully separated from the Super Heavy booster, but during that ascent phase, a couple of the engines dropped out, and then shortly thereafter, we lost communication with the vehicle,” SpaceX’s Kate Tice said during the stream. “We are assuming that we have lost the ship.”According to SpaceX, “Starship experienced a rapid unscheduled disassembly during its ascent burn,” but said teams are still going over the data to find out why.Several people who said they were on the islands of Turks and Caicos said they saw the Starship’s re-entry debris and posted videos of it on social media.@cnnbrk @CNN @cnni @Pardon_Me_22 appears to be a meteor shower over Turks and Caicos this evening.. Wow!!! Flew right over @ClubMedTurkoise pic.twitter.com/OL7vq8vbkH— Joshua Johnson (@JoshAJohnson10) January 16, 2025This just happened in the sky over #turksandcaicos ☄️ ‍♀️ #Aliens #meteor #firework??? pic.twitter.com/OwodvImSVC— Sally Alington (@sallyethos) January 16, 2025This version of Starship featured “major improvements to reliability and performance” this time around, making the vehicle slightly taller, according to SpaceX. Along with a redesigned propulsion system and an improved flight computer, this flight featured a new heat shield with “Multiple metallic tile options, including one with active cooling” to test alternative materials and a “backup layer to protect from missing or damaged tiles.” Before the flight, SpaceX also said that on the Starship’s upper stage, “a significant number of tiles will be removed to stress-test vulnerable areas across the vehicle,” but it’s unknown if this was a factor in its destruction.The Super Heavy booster in this test was also the first one to reuse a Raptor engine from a previous flight test.Mechazilla has caught the Super Heavy booster! pic.twitter.com/aq91TloYzY— SpaceX (@SpaceX) January 16, 2025At 403 feet tall, Starship is the biggest launch vehicle ever. It’s made up of two parts: the Starship spacecraft, which is designed to carry crew and cargo into orbit, and the Super Heavy Booster, which comes with 33 SpaceX Raptor engines that help propel Starship into space. Both the Starship spacecraft and its Super Heavy booster are reusable.Last year, SpaceX’s launch tower successfully caught its Super Heavy following launch.During its seventh test flight, Starship was supposed to deploy 10 Starlink “simulators” for the first time. These mock satellites are the same size and weight as Starlink’s actual internet satellites, but they weren’t supposed to stay in space. Instead, they would’ve had the “same suborbital trajectory as Starship” and would “demise upon entry.”Update, January 16th: Noted the outcome of the flight and added videos of the debris over Turks and Caicos.

AMD has found itself in quite the situation. Nvidia continues to dominate the top-end of the GPU market with the $1,999 announcement of the RTX 5090, but the company is also experiencing competition in the lower end from Intel with the new B-series. AMD's RX 7000 series GPUs were solid performers and the RX 7900 XTX was one of my favorites from this most recent GPU generation. However, FSR didn't compete against DLSS and even Intel is using AI for its super sampling tech, so AMD is bringing FSR 4 to the table with next-gen RDNA 4 GPUs, and here's why you should be excited.

How much do you use the Copilot features on Microsoft 365? If your answer to that is "not a lot," then there's some bad news on the horizon. Your monthly bill for using the service is about to go up, and it's likely due to the addition of AI services across the platform. Worst of all, you can't opt out of this price rise, either; everyone is getting hit by it regardless of how much they use (or want) Copilot.

Gaming laptops can be expensive, especially if they're packing great hardware. But if you're willing to compromise in some areas, you can always find some great products at a fantastic price. That's where this Asus TUG gaming laptop comes in, featuring an older, yet still powerful Intel Core i7 processor that's paired with Nvidia's RTX 4070 graphics card.

There are some excellent Linux distros available, but not all of them are designed with gaming in mind. Pop!_OS may have a strange name, but this distro from System76 promises some of the best gaming performance, thanks to tweaks, a focus on PC games, and support for game launchers out of the box. This also happens to be one of the better choices if you're a beginner to the Linux ecosystem. I'll show you some reasons why you should consider it for your next gaming rig OS.

Online multiplayer games are all over the gaming world, but nothing can beat the feeling of immersing yourself in a craftily built offline game.
