Nothing gold can stay, as Robert Frost wrote. But maybe it can go away for a while and come back. This is the case of Poinpy. The mobile game debuted in 2022 and was available exclusively to Netflix subscribers. However, the streaming service removed Poinpy from its lineup in June of last year, making it almost impossible to play. This saddened me greatly, because I love this game. At the time, publisher Devolver Digital said it hoped to bring Poinpy to other platforms in the future. My friends, the future is now and it is magnificent, because Poinpy is back…

Evolf/Shutterstock One of the most underrated benefits of having an iPhone is the hidden backspace feature and all the accessibility options it offers. The smartphone line has a number of features that can help individuals navigate the device more easily; there’s even a hidden iOS feature to help people with eye strain. Accessibility options can be useful for those who need them, but one feature can cause a gray dot to appear on your screen when you don’t want it to. If you see a gray dot on your iPhone…
Successes are also on the way for the first Xbox games. Xbox Game preservation is a hot topic right now amid Sony’s decision to stop manufacturing PlayStation discs. Xbox has arguably done a better job in recent years thanks in large part to its backwards compatibility efforts on consoles. It is now expanding them to more platforms thanks to the Xbox backward compatibility program on PC. “Your library is more than just a collection of games. It’s your personal story of epic stories and precious memories from the past,” wrote Jason Ronald, vice president of next…
Samsung’s big Unpacked event of the summer wasn’t for the faint of heart. Alongside two new smartwatches and all new collaborations with AI companies, chipmakers and Ned Leeds (Jacob Batalon), it revealed three new foldable phones: the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra, a redesigned Galaxy Z Fold 8 and a more similar Galaxy Z Flip 8. The base Z Fold 8 perhaps stands out, with a less square 7.6-inch main screen better designed for reading and web browsing. And yes, Google has been doing this for a few years. But the Samsung phone I want most is the one I’ve…
Samsung has gotten a head start on the traditional fall hardware season in recent years by announcing its Galaxy foldable and smartwatch lines every July. The company is sticking with that approach this year with a midsummer reveal of three new phones: the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra, Galaxy Z Fold 8, and Galaxy Z Flip 8. Samsung also revealed the Galaxy Watch 9 and Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 smartwatches. Phones have a few things in common. For example, all three run on the same chipset, the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 for Galaxy. The base models come with the…
Apple has completed development of a new iMac that it plans to release later this year, according to a report today from BloombergIt’s Mark Gurman. The updated iMac is one of 11 new Mac models that Apple plans to release over the next two years. Unsurprisingly, the next iMac will have a newer chip, but the report doesn’t indicate whether Apple plans to use the existing M5 chip or the upcoming M6 chip. No major design changes have been announced for the next iMac, so it will likely continue to feature a 24-inch LCD screen. However, the report states that…
