Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne already felt like a throwback of a game back in 2004. At a time when JRPGs were continuing their evolution into full-bore cinematic experiences, Nocturne is a bizarre dungeon crawler from an older school. It’s tempting to draw comparisons to Pokémon, since you spend a lot of Nocturne capturing and micro-managing your personal squad of monsters, but Nocturne really is its own thing. It combines traditional JRPG mechanics with a high difficulty curve and a dark storyline, and the result is still remarkably unique 17 years later....

A new project uses AI to improve the identification and measurement of fish species in Africa’s Nile Basin. The software can help scientists understand fish population density more quickly than human observers. It’s part of a larger effort to harness AI to improve sustainability across a wide range of industries. “The promising thing about AI is that it now allows us to do tasks that would be time-consuming or impossibly complex using traditional methods, with considerably more speed and efficiency,” Andrew Dunckelman, head of impact and insights at Google....

Thankfully, while the name is a head-scratcher, the Samsung Galaxy S20 FE 5G itself is not.

That makes it one of the better top-end smartphones you can buy today, thanks to a sizable and stellar screen, plenty of processing power, great cameras, and support for 5G connectivity....

Add another option for getting in touch with Santa to your bag of tricks this holiday season because SantaGram has opened its digital doors. Similar to, yet different from, other methods of Santa correspondence, SantaGram lets you create and send a video message and wishlist straight to Santa himself. All you have to do is grab your phone and record your child (if they’re okay with it, of course) giving a “Hello” to the man in red, maybe talk about how good they’ve been, and include a wish or two....

So, should you purchase a TV warranty? What Does an Extended TV Warranty Cover? Extended warranties generally provide benefits like preventative maintenance, free replacement, no- or low-cost repairs, and power-surge protection. Many such policies even offer in-home service and pickup for defective products, so you don’t have to haul your large, heavy TV back to the store. A worthwhile plan should act like a bumper-to-bumper warranty for your car. It should cover the picture screen (burn-in), buttons, inputs, outputs, internal components, TV stand, IR sensor for the remote control, on-board circuitry/software, and more....

But Sony has done more than load in more graphical prowess than before. The DualSense controller also represents an evolution from the classic DualShock design, bringing adaptive triggers that tense up and require additional force to squeeze, not to mention immersive haptic feedback all around the gamepad. It’s been a real game-changer, represented at launch in the clever and ultra-charming free pack-in game Astro’s Playroom, and used to tremendous effect in later titles like Returnal....

“I call myself an influencer because that’s what I like doing. I don’t care too much about what kind of content I make.
