  1. One of the most po[CENSORED]r data recovery tools on macOS, Disk Drill is now available for Windows. With a range of features and a choice of free and premium versions, Disk Drill is designed to recover data from hard disk drives, solid-state drives, USB flash drives, SD/CF cards, digital cameras, and even smartphones. Disk Drill's website boasts that any lost data file type can be recovered, from almost any data loss scenario you can think of. But does Disk Drill rediscover the deleted data you're expecting? Three versions of Disk Drill are available. The free option gives you file recovery of up to 500 MB. Beyond this, the software cannot work without being upgraded. Recovered data is stored in a Recovery Vault, with disks backed up with "byte-to-byte" recovery. All recovery methods can be used. For the PRO version, you'll need to pay either $89.99 (£78.35) or $118 (£103.88) with lifetime upgrades and for the price you'll get unlimited recovery for one user with activation on up to three devices. Aimed at home users with high data recovery requirements, PRO features include Quick & Deep Scan, Smart FAT and NTFS algorithms, and Lost Partition Search. All storage types and file systems are supported. Enterprise users can enjoy all the above, licenses for 10 users and infinite activations, and priority support for $499 (£439.28) or $598 (£526.44) with lifetime upgrades. Minor upgrades within major versions e.g. version 5.2 to 5.5 are free. At the time of writing, there's a limited two-for-one deal, which gives you a copy of the Mac version of Disk Drill free with the Windows PRO version. The developers also offer a 50% discount to anyone upgrading from a past version of Disk Drill or a competing Windows/macOS product bought within the last year, provided you can present a valid proof of purchase. Education/Non-Profits also benefit from a 20% discount. Disk Drill Review: Pros & Cons, Features, Ratings, Pricing and more | TechRadar
  2. The 32GB Trident Z5 Neo RGB DDR5-6000 C30 memory kit comes to market with support for AMD's EXPO one-click overclocking profiles. Ryzen 7000 processors are the first AMD mainstream chips to embrace DDR5 memory, so Intel isn't the only chipmaker to do so anymore. As a result, we've seen a new wave of EXPO-certified DDR5 memory kits specifically for Zen 4. Nonetheless, most consumers will probably look at a DDR5-6000 memory kit for their next Zen 4 build. It's not a coincidence. AMD has openly stated that DDR5-6000 is the sweet spot for Ryzen 7000 processors, so the data rate has grown in po[CENSORED]rity. Luckily for consumers, there are more than enough DDR5-6000 memory kits to pick from. The first DDR5-6000 memory kits typically carry a CAS Latency (CL) of 40. However, technology evolves rapidly, so DDR5 has matured a bit since its debut. As a result, memory vendors have started to roll out faster DDR5-6000 memory. Nowadays, you can find high-end DDR5-6000 memory kits on the market with CL values as low as 30. The Trident Z5 Neo RGB DDR5-6000 C30 is among these options.

  3. It's been 16 long years since World of Goo squidged its way into our hearts and hard drives. The much-loved physics-based puzzle game was one of modern indie gaming's earliest and biggest successes. But a lot has changed since then. Polished games from unfamiliar studios with barely a dozen staff members aren't some headline-grabbing curiosity anymore; they're absolutely everywhere, all the time. My PC. My Steam Deck. My phone. They're often discounted and bundled up and at times even given away for free. Who needs more World of Goo, then, when the original was lovely and creative and very much done and dusted years ago? Playing this game is a lot like catching up with an old friend. It looks, feels, and plays in much the same way it did before. Everything from the artistic stage select design to more than a few goo types, environmental hazards, and puzzle pieces call back to the original gooey head-scratcher. Even the little time rewinding bugs have returned (thank goodness), making it easy to either try out a few wild ideas or finally perfect a tough segment. Within moments it was as if not only had the game never been away, but I'd never stopped playing it either. And because of that, clearing the first few challenges wasn't just easy—it almost felt instinctive. There I was, watching towers of goo dangerously sway as I grabbed and built and stretched an increasingly wobbly mass towards the exit pipe that would suck it all up and end the level, same as last time. Just like the ancient past of 2008, sometimes I needed to hook balloons onto my goo lattice to move it around, flipping it over and over to "walk" it across the landscape or encourage it to roll in a particular direction. At other times I needed to set something on fire, or watch out for drafts. There are a lot of obviously recycled ideas in here. World of Goo 2 review | PC Gamer
  4. Jujutsu Kaisen hits the video game stage for the very first time, known for its high-octane clashes between curses and sorcerers. Yuji Itadori and his fellow classmates must learn to harness Jujutsu Sorcery as an ancient evil swells, beckoning danger ever closer. While the series is po[CENSORED]r among both manga and anime fans, does the magic carry over to the world of video games as well? Right off the bat, the main menu looks like something out of a 2000s title screen, with scenes from the anime playing in the background and a simple bar of options at the top. I bring this up because the UI in this game is atrocious to look at and maneuver through, and feels downright amateurish for the price tag this game has. This was my first red flag that this game might be of lower quality, and after completing the game I can say with confidence that the writing was on the wall from the very start. When you begin a match in most modes, you’ll be playing some combination of 1v1, 1v2 or 2v2. It would seem that the 2v2 mode is likely going to be the most po[CENSORED]r, as it seems like a lot of the moves, combos and balance seem to be centered around this set-up in particular. This is further cemented by the fact that outside of the Story Mode, there are currently no options to set up a 1v1 match. I say combos here lightly, because while there are three attack buttons, about ninety percent of the time you’ll be mashing square the entire match. This is largely because of the game’s greatest flaw; there are attacks that legitimately do zero damage. Jujutsu Kaisen: Cursed Clash review — Absolutely cursed — GAMINGTREND
  5. Your bugs are going to die. I feel it's important to let you know that from the start. Bugaboo Pocket is a Tamagotchi-like game about cultivating bug species to revitalize the environment after your evil corpo bosses destroyed it, and inevitably you're going to say goodbye to them all, give them a nice burial and epitaph, and then raise their progeny. It's a circle of bug's life out there. Bugaboo Pocket is planning to fully launch sometime this year, but it's got a demo available right now that I've been thoroughly sucked into. It begins as I flee the fire that destroyed my lab, taking with me just one bug larva to raise in a remote cabin. I initially assume it's just a pill bug, though I now know he's a rubber duck isopod who I name Bront (they're good bugs, Bront) and care for in his terrarium by feeding, petting, and picking up after him. Oh, and I also have to give Bront proper enrichment by using him as a pachinko ball and building a precarious arcade bridge and forcing him through an endless runner tunnel. There's not as much rest for bugs as I'd thought. He does get to wear hats, but only after he's grown into an adult bug with a large enough noggin for the lovely blue flower to perch on. Aside from playing minigames to win bug poop currency to decorate his terrarium with, I'm also learning about Bront by trial and error. When he's small, clicking to pet him makes him curl up and hide, but once he's larger I can tap his thorax to pet him—though he doesn't like being pet on his head or lower thorax, I learned. And eventually I pet him too many times in a row which made him dislike being pet at all anymore according to my journal. Sorry, Bront. Each bug has a tarot card reading for some reason, and grow into personality traits like "cheerful" and "posh." There seems to be a whole list of unlabeled needs meters that I imagine I'll begin to uncover in the full game. Eventually Bront dies, so I bury him in the garden outside, write a nice message to mark his place, and hatch a new larva he left behind. Thanks to this Tamagotchi-like critter care game I now believe that bugs can be cute too | PC Gamer a
  6. The Lexus UX (Japanese: レクサス・UX, Hepburn: Rekusasu UX) is a subcompact luxury crossover SUV from Lexus, a luxury division of Toyota. It was introduced at the March 2018 Geneva Motor Show as the smallest crossover model in Lexus' lineup prior to the introduction of LBX in 2023. It is also the first Lexus model based on the same GA-C platform as the E210 series Toyota Corolla.[11] The "UX" name stands for "Urban Explorer".[5] Prior to the 2022 (for the 2023 model year), the UX came equipped with Lexus Safety System+ 2.0 as standard equipment. From 2022 onwards (model years 2023 onwards), the standard equipment includes Lexus Safety System+ 2.5.[citation needed] As of 2024, the UX is positioned between the smaller LBX and the larger NX in Lexus' SUV global lineup.

  7. In the memoir that made him famous, JD Vance practically apologized for the book’s existence, writing that he had “accomplished nothing great” in his life — “certainly nothing that would justify a complete stranger paying money to read about it.” Nearly a decade later, Vance, now 40, is the vice president-elect and potential heir to a political movement that has realigned the Republican Party. History will remember him for more than “Hillbilly Elegy,” his bestseller that was made into a movie. What for, exactly, depends on the path Vance charts when President-elect Donald Trump returns to the Oval Office — and if it leads to his one day calling that office his own. Vance, a first-term senator from Ohio, has said little about his vision for the vice presidency other than to mention a few areas of policy interest, like immigration. As a candidate, he stuck faithfully to Trump’s script, filling in the blanks when necessary but rarely overstepping the man whose endorsement lifted him out of a crowded GOP primary in 2022. Those who have watched his rapid ascension expect that dynamic to continue, even if and when Vance prepares to run for president in 2028. Allies of Trump and Vance believe loyalty is Vance’s greatest attribute and his smartest play for the short-term future of their administration and for his longer-term political future. “He will focus on any issues that the president directs him to do,” said a source familiar with the Trump-Vance relationship, who like others, was granted anonymity to share candid observations. Vance’s unshakeable allegiance to Trump has been his calling card since his well-documented conversion from Trump critic to champion, and their bond tightened as running mates. They speak by phone daily and at all hours. After he voted on Election Day near his home in Cincinnati, Vance told reporters about the 3 a.m. phone call he had missed from Trump a few hours earlier. Trump was headed home from his final campaign rally, but Vance was already asleep. “There’s a lot of trust between them, so I think they’re going to be able to get a lot done,” said Jordan Wiggins, who managed Vance’s 2022 Senate campaign. “He’s not going to go up there and make it all about him.” Recent history is filled with tension points between presidents and vice presidents. Al Gore worried that Bill Clinton’s affair with an intern sank his White House bid in 2000. Joe Biden asked to be “the last guy in the room” whenever Barack Obama had a tough decision to make — and angered Obama by speaking out of turn about issues like gay marriage. Trump, who will be the first president since Grover Cleveland to serve nonconsecutive terms, has his own complicated history. Former Vice President Mike Pence was, for most of their four years together, a loyal partner who helped smooth Trump’s dealings with establishment Republicans and evangelical conservatives. But Pence split with Trump on Jan. 6, 2021, refusing to interfere with the 2020 election results. That day, egged on by Trump — who at one point accused Pence on social media of lacking “courage” — rioters stormed the U.S. Capitol, some of them chanting, “Hang Mike Pence.” Their relationship ended badly, crushing Pence’s presidential ambitions. Vance will face a different calculus. Unlike most vice presidents who look toward re-election in four years before they plot their own presidential campaigns, he will have less time to plan than his predecessors did, given that Trump is term-limited under the 22nd Amendment. “It compresses things,” said Joel Goldstein, a vice presidential scholar and professor emeritus at Saint Louis University. “Instead of having a term to sort of settle in as vice president and, in a sense, benefit from what that office adds as a springboard, people will start going to Iowa and New Hampshire,” the early nominating states. For Vance, it could be a short but high-launching runway. Despite the success of “Hillbilly Elegy” and nearly two years in the Senate, he is a relative newcomer in the eyes of many voters. His introduction as Trump’s running mate drew attention to some of his more provocative comments, particularly about marriage and motherhood. At one point, polling showed him to be one of the least-liked vice presidential candidates over the last 30 years. But Vance’s image improved over time. By Election Day, voters were roughly split between having favorable and unfavorable opinions of him, putting him on par with his Democratic counterpart, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, according to NBC News exit polls. Vance’s team accomplished that, in part, by keeping him visible — and not just in right-wing media spaces. He frequently appeared on Sunday news programs like NBC News' “Meet the Press,” often coming off as polite, if adversarial. The strategy was to defy the perceptions of Vance as an unserious and unreasonable flamethrower. A preview of JD Vance's vice presidency: Loyalty, trust and a 'hammer' for Trump
  8. In the past year, targets of AI-generated, nonconsensual pornographic images have ranged from prominent women like Taylor Swift and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez to high school girls. For someone discovering that they, or their child, have been made the subject of deepfake porn, the experience is typically scary and overwhelming, said Goldberg, who runs the New York-based firm C.A. Goldberg Law representing victims of sex crimes and online harassment. “Especially if they’re young and they don’t know how to cope and the internet is this big, huge, nebulous place,” she said. But there are steps that targets of this form of harassment can take to protect themselves and places to turn for help, Goldberg told me in an interview on CNN’s new tech podcast, Terms of Service with Clare Duffy. Terms of Service aims to demystify the new and emerging technologies that listeners encounter in their daily lives. (You can listen to the full conversation with Goldberg here.) Goldberg said that for people targeted by AI-generated sexual images, the first step — however counterintuitive — should be to screenshot them. “The knee-jerk reaction is to get this off the internet as soon as possible,” Goldberg said. “But if you want to be able to have the option of reporting it criminally, you need the evidence.” Next, they can seek out the forms that platforms like Google, Meta and Snapchat provide to request removal of explicit images. Nonprofit organizations like StopNCII.org and Take It Down can also help facilitate the removal of such images across multiple platforms at once, although not all sites cooperate with the groups. A bipartisan group of senators sent an open letter in August calling on nearly a dozen tech firms, including X and Discord, to join the programs. The fight to address nonconsensual explicit images and deepfakes has received rare bipartisan support. A group of teens and parents who had been affected by AI-generated porn testified at a hearing on Capitol Hill, where Republican Sen. Ted Cruz introduced a bill — supported by Democratic Sen. Amy Klobuchar and others — that would make it a crime to publish such images and require social media platforms to remove them upon notice from victims. But, for now, victims are left to navigate a patchwork of state laws. In some places, there are no criminal laws preventing the creation or sharing of explicit deepfakes of adults. (AI-generated sexual images of children typically fall under child sexual abuse material laws.) “My proactive advice is really to the would-be offenders which is just, like, don’t be a total scum of the earth and try to steal a person’s image and use it for humiliation,” Goldberg said. “There’s not much that victims can do to prevent this … We can never be fully safe in a digital society, but it’s kind of up to one another to not be total a**holes.” AI means anyone can be a victim of deepfake porn.

  9. More than 800 million adults worldwide are living with diabetes, according to a new study in the journal The Lancet. The global rate of diabetes was about 14% in 2022, the study found. Nearly 60% of adults age 30 or older who had diabetes did not receive treatment in 2022. On World Diabetes Day, it’s important to understand this chronic disease, especially what we can do to prevent it. What are the health consequences? What steps can people take to prevent diabetes? How is it diagnosed? If someone is diagnosed, what treatments are available? And what lifestyle changes help everyone — both people diagnosed with diabetes and those who want to prevent it? To help us with these questions, I spoke with CNN wellness expert Dr. Leana Wen. Wen is an emergency physician and adjunct associate professor at George Washington University. She previously was Baltimore’s health commissioner. Dr. Leana Wen: Diabetes is a chronic disease that has many health repercussions. Diabetes is the eighth leading cause of death in the United States, according to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. It is the No. 1 cause of kidney failure and adult-onset blindness, the CDC reports. People with diabetes are two to four times more likely to develop cardiovascular disease compared with those who do not. It is also a top cause of lower limb amputations.

  10. There’s an argument to be made that Thursday’s game between the Washington Commanders and the Philadelphia Eagles is the most important Commanders regular season game in nearly 20 years. Since 1992, Washington has won 10 games in a regular season only three times — and never more than 10. And in those three seasons, only once have the Commanders won a game in November or December against a divisional opponent that also finished with at least 10 wins — against the New York Giants in 2005. That’s why Thursday’s matchup against the Eagles is a benchmark game for Washington, perhaps not only for this season but also for the franchise moving forward. If the Commanders can pull off an upset on the road, not only will they have their best win of 2024 — they could prove they are no longer the doormat of the NFC East. The Commanders haven't been relevant this century. That can change against the Eagles.
  11. It’s the next natural step in virality. Internet favorite baby animal Moo Deng now has an official song, “Moodeng Moodeng” — available in four languages. The 50-second upbeat song released Wednesday has simple but catchy lyrics such as “Please Mommy, come play with me / Bounce with me, Mom,” with other versions in Thai, Chinese and Japanese. The music video stars the pygmy hippopotamus, who lives at a zoo in Thailand, bouncing around in her trademark style in a loop. Moo Deng, now 4 months old, became a TikTok star in September when her caretakers at Khao Kheow Open Zoo in Chonburi, Thailand, began uploading videos of her going about her day, which mostly involves napping, getting hosed down for a shower and toothlessly chewing her caretakers’ knees. The song was released by GMM Music, one of Thailand’s largest music companies, and produced by the well-known Thai songwriter Mueanphet Ammara. The music videos across the four languages had gained more than 100,000 views on YouTube as of Thursday. Move over 'Baby Shark,' Moo Deng now has an official song
