About five hours into Elon Musk’s testimony, I typed the following sentence into my notes: “I have never been more sympathetic to Sam Altman in my life.” Musk’s direct testimony was an improvement over yesterday – even if his lawyer kept asking leading questions to cue him in how to answer. But that memory was […]
Microsoft’s Xbox hardware revenue continues to tumble, with the company revealing a 33 percent decline as part of its earnings report released on Wednesday. Even though the rest of Microsoft’s consumer-focused division took a dip, the company’s cloud and productivity businesses continue to soar, driving the company toward $82.9 billion in revenue.

The 2026 Razr Plus costs $1,099, up from $999. It still comes with a Snapdragon 8S Gen 3 chipset – two years old at this point – […]
Look, you’re not going to find much new on the 2026 version of the Motorola Razr Ultra. There’s a new main camera sensor, a slightly bigger battery, and a higher price: $1,499, up from $1,299.

Xbox CEO Asha Sharma wants everyone to know: “We are Xbox.” Just last week, she scrapped Microsoft Gaming as the name of Microsoft’s gaming division in favor of simply Xbox.
