Many GOP lawmakers did in fact seek to throw out their state’s electoral votes during the 2020 election — and are laying the groundwork for 2024.

Coway’s CES 2022 offerings focus on both, with the company’s first connected smart mattress and a new decor-friendly purifier that packs a good reason … Continue reading
After many companies dropped out of CES 2022 over health and safety fears related to the new omicron coronavirus strain, LG was one of the first to host a keynote before the trade show’s official start on Wednesday. Thankfully, you don’t have to watch the entire event to see everything the company showed off. We’ve compiled all of LG’s major announcements into a video that clocks in at under five minutes. Expect to see its 2022 OLED TV lineup make an appearance. Oh, and make sure to stick around until the end to see an adorable delivery robot.

Another year, another life-sized replica of a walking testament to the atrocity of mechanized warfare. Yes, Japan has another life-sized Gundam statue on the way soon, and to celebrate, Sunrise has taken the latest mobile suit to hit the real world and animated it… for the first time.
A lawsuit filed by the man who modeled as a baby for Nirvana’s iconic Nevermind album cover has been dismissed—for now. Spencer Elden was 4 months when he was photographed nude in a Pasadena swimming pool back in 1991. As an adult, Elden tried suing the band on child pornography charges this past August.
More federal testing sites are coming, the president promised as the U.S. smashed daily case count records.

Laptops featuring the new processors are set to launch later in 2022 and AMD claims that the batteries in the new processors could offer up to 24 hours of battery life. These claims are intriguing, especially when you consider that the average battery life of current laptops … Continue reading
Last July, Hideo Kojima’s utterly bonkers animated philosophy movie and busywork simulator, Death Stranding, announced a director’s cut edition with some additional goodies, which dropped for PlayStation 5 in September. PC gamers will now get to experience this version in the Spring of 2022, roughly two years after the base game was ported to Windows.
We are pleased to announce that DEATH STRANDING DIRECTOR’S CUT will be coming to PC!
This will launch simultaneously on Steam and the Epic Games store in Spring 2022.#DeathStrandingDC#KojimaProductions#505Gamespic.twitter.com/HNyS7aLheH— KOJIMA PRODUCTIONS (Eng) (@KojiPro2015_EN) January 4, 2022
Death Stranding Director’s Cut on PC will make use of Intel’s Xe Super Sampling to supposedly improve performance, graphical fidelity and frame rates. Ultra-wide monitors will also be supported, in case that’s a concern of yours. And as Kojima mentioned above, the game will launch simultaneously on the Epic Game store and Steam. As with the PS5 version, Director’s Cut will come with the same add-ons including new weapons, missions, boss battles and a racing mode.
There’s no exact date yet beyond the general “Spring 2022” window. If you’re looking to scratch the itch of a bleak future where loneliness is only outweighed by tedium, perhaps watch Sion Sono’s The Whispering Star while you wait. To my knowledge Kojima has never claimed the film was an influence on his game (which also revolves around a replaceable, emotionless protagonist essentially working as an Amazon Flex courier) but I wouldn’t be surprised if that were the case.
Agricultural hardware giant and scourge of right-to-repair advocates everywhere John Deere is ready to show off its finished, fully-autonomous tractor. Here at CES, the company is saying that this unit is going to be put into large-scale production, and will be made available to farmers later this year. When in use, a farmer can set the hardware to work and then leave it running, allowing them to tend to vital work elsewhere. The idea, so the company says, is to help make farming more efficient and more robust in the face of ever-increasing demand and dwindling resources.
A progress video from John Deere’s autonomous team from the start of 2020.
John Deere’s ambitions in this space have been running for some time, and the company was showing off an autonomous tractor at this show in 2019. Back then, it said that its technology — which combine land-based sensors and GPS — was accurate to around 2.5 cm, or 0.9 inches. This new model has six pairs of stereo cameras around the vehicle to help with object detection, which is then processed by a local neural network. This, combined with the aforementioned GPS technology, enables it to maintain its position within a geofence around an individual field.
The model that Deere is showing off combines a Deere 8R Tractor, a TruSet-enabled chisel plow and the secret sauce contained within its navigation technology. It says that all a farmer needs to do is drive it to the start of a field, configure it for autonomous operation and then “swipe from left to right to start the machine.” Its progress can then be monitored from a mobile device, which can receive live video, data and metrics, allowing a farmer to adjust speed and drill depth from their phone.
We don’t yet know how much the hardware is going to cost, but we can imagine that there will be plenty of interest from major farming companies both in the US and abroad as they look to cut costs on labor and search for efficiencies any way that they can.

Like many other PC manufacturers, MSI is refreshing its gaming laptops this week with the new CPUs and GPUs Intel and NVIDIA announced at CES 2022. Among the models the company is updating are its popular Stealth GS77 and Stealth GS66 laptops. New to the 2022 versions of the laptop is a more durable zinc alloy hinge. They also feature larger trackpads and keycaps for a more comfortable typing experience. Between the Stealth GS77 and Stealth GS66, MSI will offer 10 different configurations.
With the latter, the most affordable model will cost $1,799 and feature an Intel Core i7-12650H processor, NVIDIA RTX 3060 GPU, 16GB of RAM and 1TB of NVMe storage. It also comes with a 17-inch 360Hz Full HD display. If you want MSI’s most powerful GS77 model, you’ll need to set aside $4,199. That gets you a computer with a 14-core, 20-thread i9-12900H; NVIDIA’s new flagship laptop GPU, the RTX 3080 Ti; 32GB of RAM; and a 1TB M.2 drive. Instead of a Full HD or QHD panel, it comes with a 4K 120Hz display that covers the entire Adobe RGB color gamut.
Moving to the smaller GS66, your most affordable option here is a $2,499 model with an i9-12900H, RTX 3070 Ti, 32GB of RAM, 1TB of internal storage and a 15-inch 360Hz Full HD display. For $1,000 more, you can get the computer with an RTX 3080 Ti, 32GB of RAM and 4K display.
If one of MSI’s new computers comes with at least an RTX 3070 and Core i7 processor, it will feature a “Meta-Ready” sticker on its case to tell you you’re ready to experience the Metaverse at its best. The company doesn’t say who decided you need one of NVIDIA’s latest GPUs for a technology that is more an idea than a reality at this point.
One of the ways MSI hopes to differentiate its laptops from all the other Intel 12th-gen machines you’ll have the chance to buy in 2022 is through its new cooling technology. The Core i9 Stealth GS77 will come with a metal pad that melts when the computer reaches a temperature of 136 degrees Fahrenheit. The liquid fills the space between the CPU and thermal block, leading to a more efficient transfer of heat, according to MSI. The company claims the technology allows for an up to 10 percent increase in performance.
MSI is also updating its Creator series of laptops, including the Z17, Z16P and M16. The highlight of the line is the Z17. It features a 17-inch 16:10 display with a 2,560 x 1,600 resolution and 165Hz refresh rate. The base model comes with an RTX 3070 Ti, i7 12700H processor and 32GB of RAM for $3,249. We’re waiting on details for when MSI plans to release all the laptops it announced today.
