Two years after trying to sidestep mobile apps with dedicated AI hardware, Rabbit is launching OS3, a cross-platform agent that lives on the screens you already use. Jesse Lyu doesn't think the Rabbit R1 was a flop. Lyu's gadget was among the first in the gold rush to create dedicated AI hardware that acted as a virtual assistant. You could speak into the R1 and ask it to complete tasks for you--book an Uber; order food on DoorDash. After a buzzy launch at CES 2024, it earned scathing reviews.

PC building is more fun when you have no idea what you're doing A strange little hacker gadget reminded me that confusion, failure, and experimentation were always the best parts of building computers. I don't know about you, but the whole reason I got into upgrading and building PCs is because I wanted to play . My age hadn't hit double digits by the time the game shipped on DOS in '94, but a year or two later I got my hands on a copy and realized our old family PC didn't have the chops to run id's latest. Thus began my 30+ years of PC enthusiasm, starting with me getting frustrated by memory management (death to HIMEM) and leading me here as a PCWorld veteran who can work a screwdriver and a solder gun almost as well as anyone.

Do you know your'sweat score'? One of the biggest controversies of the 2026 World Cup so far has been the hydration breaks, which - while not entirely new - are for the first time occurring twice during every match in the tournament. The breaks aren't really about hydration, some spectators say. They're just an opportunity for certain broadcasters to show more ads, they break up the natural flow of games, and are unnecessary in air conditioned stadiums. Whether or not you agree with these complaints, there's no doubt that hydration itself is an increasingly prominent point of discussion worldwide.

Chinese Drivers Are Using Tiny Plastic Heads to Fool Tesla's Autopilot Safeguards A cottage industry of celebrity figurines, blinking screens, and other DIY gadgets is helping drivers bypass Tesla's distracted-driving controls. In China, for just $30, you can have Dwayne Johnson drive your Tesla for you. Sounds too cheap to be true? What you're actually buying is a tiny replica of The Rock's head, designed to sit above the rearview mirror and trick Tesla into thinking an attentive driver is behind the wheel. Tesla's self-driving system appears unable to tell the difference between the figurines and a real person, allowing the actual driver to look away from the road, scroll through their phone, or even doze off--activities that are supposed to be prohibited while assisted-driving features are engaged.

One town's scheme to get rid of its geese Public officials in one California burgh spent nearly $400,000 on tech to flush out waterfowl. Some geese, like the one on the left, wear GPS trackers as part of the Foster City goose management plan. Our target is in sight: a gaggle of Canada geese, pecking at grass near the dog park. As I approach, tiptoeing over their grayish-white poop, I notice that one bird wears a white cuff around its slender black neck. It's a GPS tracker--part of a new tech-centered campaign to drive the geese out of my hometown of Foster City, California. About 300 geese live in this sleepy Bay Area suburb, equal to nearly 1% of our human population--and some say this town isn't big enough for the both of us.
