Ken and Ryu Can’t Stay Friends in New Street Fighter Movie Trailer

By Bill Smith September 1, 2026

Paramount Pictures and Legendary just put a new trailer in front of audiences today for their live-action Street Fighter movie, and the footage spends most of its time on the old wound between Ryu and Ken Masters. Andrew Koji plays the wandering fighter who once stood as the best in the world before he walked away from combat. Noah Centineo plays Ken, the flashier American who spent years in Ryu’s shadow and now finds himself in real trouble. Callina Liang’s Chun-Li shows up to pull them both into the World Warrior Tournament, arguing that Ken needs his old partner even if the two men can barely look at each other.

Fixing a Broken Amprobe AT-7000 Reveals How a $2,700 Cable Tracer Died in a Drawer and Came Back

By Jackson Chung September 1, 2026

Most people have never held an Amprobe AT-7000-EUR, and even fewer would guess a cable tracer can cost about $2,700. Electricians use this kit when a cable disappears into drywall, a ceiling, a floor, or a crowded panel and a cheap tone probe is not enough. One half of the kit is a transmitter you clip onto a circuit. That box injects a tracing signal, 6.25 kHz on live wires or 32.768 kHz on dead ones, in high, low, or clamp mode. The other half is a receiver with a color screen, a tip sensor, and a Smart Sensor array that shows where the wire runs and which way it is going, often to about two inches, and can pick the correct breaker instead of a handful of false hits.

DK64 Rekongpiled Puts Donkey Kong 64 on Your PC as a Real Native Port

By Bill Smith August 31, 2026

When Donkey Kong 64 debuted on the Nintendo 64 in 1999, Rare sent five Kongs on a quest to reclaim a thousand Golden Bananas, recover stolen riches, and deliver one very long rap. Rainchus, Ballaam, Killklli, Umed, and collaborators released DK64 Rekongpiled, also known as DK64 Recompiled, and the campaign now runs as a regular Windows, Linux, or macOS. You still need to point the software at a legally dumped US cartridge image. No assets are included with the download. After selecting one file, the original game code is executed on your computer rather than within an emulator.
