A three-and-a-half-minute video released this weekend made an N64 first-person shooter look like it belonged on the Super Nintendo, a 16-bit machine that many grew up with. Bond stands on the Arkhangelsk dam, the gun is in the lower corner of the frame, and the concrete bunkers pass by in chunky polygons while fog eats the far cliffs.
Two thousand feet of half-inch PEX already slept six to eight feet under Craftsman Chris’s yard when his first homemade cooling plan came up short. Four parallel five-hundred-foot slinky loops and a Taco 009 pump pushed water through a heat exchanger in the furnace plenum, yet the dirt had baked in the sun after excavation and the loop stayed warmer than he needed. Direct ground water barely cooled the house. He needed a machine that could pull heat out of indoor air and dump it into that soil instead of into hot summer wind.
Motorola still sells the only widely available Android phone in this price range that keeps a real pen tucked in the frame, and the Moto G Stylus (2025), priced at $279.99 (was $400), uses that old idea as the excuse for a much sharper everyday phone. You get a 6.7-inch pOLED panel, IP68 sealing, 68W wired charging, 15W wireless charging, a microSD slot, a 3.5mm headphone jack, and a Snapdragon 6 Gen 3 chip in a 191-gram slab that measures about 0.33 x 2.94 x 6.38 inches.
Tesla confirmed on Tuesday that Grok inside its cars can now do real work, not only answer questions and change cabin settings. Drivers already able to wake the assistant from the App Launcher, a long press on the steering wheel microphone, or a spoken “Hey Grok” can ask it to check an inbox, tidy a calendar, or walk through files, chats, and tasks without picking up a phone. Tesla’s own post put it plainly: Grok in the car can now do meaningful work for you, all hands-free.
Motorola used Qualcomm’s Snapdragon Summit on September 22, 2026, to introduce the Signature 27, the second phone in this premium line and the first to take its name from the last two digits of the coming year. Company materials call it the most advanced handset Motorola has built, pairing the new Snapdragon 8 Elite Extreme Gen 6 platform with a 200-megapixel periscope telephoto, Audio by Bang & Olufsen, and a cooling stack meant to keep that silicon from cooking itself during long AI, game, and video sessions. The phone is expected in markets worldwide later in 2026, including the United States, which sat out the first Signature.
