Forza Horizon 6 is shaping up to be a new visual showcase, but its PC requirements tell a different story. Despite the next-gen graphics, the game sticks to relatively approachable specs, especially for modern AAA games. This is a welcome surprise in a time when new titles often feel like they demand a full system upgrade. What’s great about the PC requirements? Forza To run Forza Horizon 6, the minimum requirements for PC include an Intel Core i5-8400 or Ryzen 5 1600, paired with 16GB RAM and a GTX 1650, RX 6500 XT, or Intel Arc A380. While this isn’t…

WhatsApp is rolling out a slew of new features and updates, including one that generates AI-powered suggested replies based on your conversations. The Meta-owned messaging platform is also launching other features, including a new way to free up space, the ability to touch up photos with Meta AI, and more. Most notably, however, is the app’s update to its “Writing Help” feature that helps users draft messages. Writing Help, which first launched last August, already helps users rephrase, proofread, or adjust the tone of their messages. On Thursday, the Meta-owned company said in a blog post that this latest update…

Believe it or not, most customers don’t actually spend time reading their build sheet when ordering a car, or dive into the features available to them when they purchase a new vehicle. In what came as a shock to this car nerd, my fiancé didn’t even know our family car had gesture controls in the infotainment system until she accidentally used them on a road trip. Whether you’re as in tune with your options list as I am or not, your car might have some incredibly useful features that you’re not even aware of, and they very well could be…

Carbon Nanofibers in Dry-Coated Batteries (21.8% Energy Density Gain) is described by Jordan at the Limiting Factor. A new University of Chicago paper (published March 2026) demonstrates a simple but powerful tweak to dry-electrode cathode design that delivers a 21.8% increase in usable energy density while maintaining excellent cycle life. The breakthrough relies entirely on Tesla’s dry electrode coating process (the only commercial-scale dry-coating technology currently available) combined with vapor-grown carbon nanofibers (VGCF) or similar string-like carbon materials replacing traditional carbon-black particles.

vivo has launched two new entry-level smartphones in India today. Meet the Y11 and Y21, which both reuse names vivo already went with before – in fact, this is the fourth Y11 so far, following the original from 2014, the one from 2019, and the one from 2023.

Android has multiple gestures built into the system and certain apps that are easy to miss. These gestures make navigating Android faster and easier, and allow you to access key functions with minimal effort, and over the years you might have triggered some of these gestures by accident. I know I have. For example, Gboard (which has a cool extra feature on iOS) has a hidden trackpad function to allow for precise cursor placement — a lifesaver when editing text. Also, there’s a gesture that lets you rapidly swipe between two recent apps in a similar way to using the…
