Wing, the drone delivery company operated by Google parent Alphabet, unveiled a series of new prototype aircraft designed to handle a variety of payloads. The company said the new drones will share the same underlying components with the aircraft currently in use delivering pharmaceuticals and other small packages in the suburbs outside of Dallas-Fort Worth.

In an interview, he said that the 12-episode Andor season 2 will be divided into four blocks of three episodes with each segment covering a year of the rebel pilot Cassian Andor's life. Gilroy, however, did not give out any plot details as those are most probably under wraps given the fact that the first season of the Diego…

At one point, I was playing endless amounts of Stardew Valley on an old Lenovo ThinkPad that I used in college, but it didn’t really matter because that game could run on a toaster. I once tried to play BioShock Infinite on that same laptop… that one didn’t go so well. I’ve upgraded a bit since then, but it’s still a gamble whether or not a game I bought on my PC is going to run on my secondhand gaming laptop. Well now the Xbox…
