The idea of loading a comedy podcast onto the original 160 by 144 pixel screen of a Game Boy Color feels like a stretch even before any hardware enters the picture. The handheld dates back to 1998. It carries no wireless hardware, runs on an 8-bit processor, and originally shipped without a backlight.

Parents watch their children reach for screens earlier each year. Short videos and social platforms pull attention hard, and the effects show up in shorter focus, less interest in slower activities, and early exposure to material that simply does not belong in a young life. One father decided the standard options did not fit what he wanted for his seven-year-old son. He took an older laptop and shaped it into something different.
Hubble has delivered a crisp new view of NGC 6723, a globular cluster tucked in the constellation Sagittarius. The image shows a tight swarm of stars that fills the frame with countless points of light, each one a distinct sun shining across 27,000 light-years of space. Blue stars crowd the center while warmer orange stars appear more often near the edges, and many of the brighter ones carry the sharp, cross-shaped spikes created by the telescope’s optics.
AYANEO launched the Pocket MICRO 2 this morning and the first batch of pre-orders disappeared almost immediately from the company store.
