The Federal Trade Commission is encouraging companies to adopt age verification technologies by announcing it will not enforce a children's online privacy law against certain websites that collect and use minors' personal data in order to verify their ages.
"Age verification technologies are some of the most child-protective technologies to emerge in decades," Christopher Mufarrige, the director of the Bureau of Consumer Protection, said in a press release. "Our statement incentivizes operators to use these innovative tools, empowering parents to protect their children online."
There are certain criteria that websites need to meet in order …

In January, Qualcomm hinted to The Verge that it might finally bring its powerful Arm-based Snapdragon processors to Windows gaming handhelds at the 2026 Game Developers Conference in San Francisco - just in time to challenge Nvidia's own first Arm gaming CPU and Intel's first dedicated handheld gaming chips.
But plans have shifted, Qualcomm now tells me. It won't announce any updates to its Snapdragon G Series gaming chips there, nor offer the recently announced updates to the Snapdragon X line for journalists to try or benchmark. "Snapdragon X Series and Snapdragon G Series processors are pushing the PC, desktop, and handheld gaming dev …

The Drop Mythic Journey keyboard from 2022. | Photo by Jon Porter / The Verge The Drop store, which was acquired by gaming gear giant Corsair in 2023, was a haven for mechanical keyboard enthusiasts and audiophiles to discover and buy hard-to-find gear - sometimes at surprisingly good prices.

The Haxophone is an open source MIDI saxophone project that has achieved some popularity. It’s caught the attention of [Shieladixon] not because she is a saxophonist but because she plays the recorder and is dissatisfied with existing MIDI recorder peripherals. She’s set about modifying the device to produce the Haxocorder, a better MIDI recorder.
The video below the break is the third of a series, of which part one and part two deal with the Haxophone and the shortcomings of her existing recorder peripheral. She’s replacing the Pi Zero of the Haxophone with a Pi Pico in a Zero form factor, and simplifying its design significantly to remove unnecessary features. The result is a versatile instrument...

A diagnosis of serious liver disease can feel like a slow countdown. Scar tissue builds quietly, the liver stiffens, and the risks climb toward cancer, heart attack, stroke, and even transplant. Now, researchers at McMaster University say a new drug candidate may be able to do what today’s care often cannot; stop liver scarring and even reverse it in preclinical studies. The work was led by McMaster professor Greg Steinberg in collaboration with Espervita Therapeutics and researchers in the United States, France, and Australia. The team focused on liver fibrosis, a dangerous buildup of scar tissue that can follow metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis, also known as MASH. This condition often...

“Just nine countries did not have large-scale forced labor at any time since the late 18th century. After a small number of countries reduced forced labor substantially in the early 1800s, the rest of the 19th century, and the first decades of the 20th, saw steady successes in the fight for abolition. Progress accelerated in the mid-20th century. In just a few decades, dozens of countries abolished large-scale forced labor: at the end of World War II, almost 100 countries still had such systems in place. Only one generation later, by 1975, that number had fallen to 31. In recent decades, the number of countries where forced labor is common has continued to fall, though at a slower pace. In 2024, there were...

Tiny pits, webbing patterns, and a dusting of nanoparticles are not what most people picture when they think about farming. Yet those small scars may end up mattering if you ever try to grow food on the Moon or Mars. In a study described in ACS Earth and Space Chemistry, researchers tested what happens when a nutrient-rich liquid made from recycled waste meets fake Moon and Mars dirt. The short version is this: the “soil” starts to change. Also, the liquid starts picking up useful elements that plants need. “In lunar and Martian outposts, organic wastes will be key to generating healthy, productive soils,” said Harrison Coker, the study’s first author from the Department of Soil and Crop Sciences,...

“We got neutrons, yeah!” The shout came after years of after-school effort inside a Dallas home, where a seventh grader had been quietly assembling a machine most people only encounter in advanced laboratories. For Aiden McMillan, that moment confirmed something extraordinary. His homemade device had produced nuclear fusion. Now, at 12, the Dallas Independent School District student is seeking recognition from Guinness World Records as the youngest person to achieve it. McMillan’s project began long before wires and vacuum pumps entered the picture. He first became fascinated with fusion at age 8, then spent two years studying nuclear physics concepts before attempting early prototypes. Curiosity drove...

In theory having a single device that combines the features of multiple dedicated devices is a great idea, saving a lot of space, time and money. However, in reality it mostly means that these features now conflict with each other, force us to deal with more complex devices that don’t last nearly as long, and become veritable vampires for your precious attention.
Whereas in the olden days a phone was just used for phone calls, now it’s also a video and photo camera, multimedia computer, pager, and more, but at any point an incoming phone call can interrupt what you are doing.

The issue of Greenland, which Donald Trump wants to annex, is likely to dominate the election campaign.

A familiar story plays out in a lot of diets. The scale drops, routines tighten up, and then months later the weight creeps back. A new long-term study suggests that this “yo-yo” pattern can still leave a lasting imprint on health, even when the pounds return. The work tracked people enrolled in two structured weight-loss trials years apart. Many who returned for a second round started that second program at nearly the same body size as before. Yet their internal fat pattern and blood markers looked better than they did at the very start. When weight comes back, something else changes “Yo-yo dieting” usually describes repeated cycles of intentional weight loss and gradual regain. The concern is that...

A Thousand Mad Things “Promises”
A Thousand Mad Things’ William Barradale wears his icy synth pop and goth influences on his sleeve, to the extent that his most recent singles sound like direct homages to Depeche Mode and The Cure. A lot of artists aim for this, but Barradale actually nails it on a craft level, emulating their particular approaches to melody rather than just over-indexing on the surface level aesthetics like most cold wave acts. “Promises” offsets the jauntiness of “The Lovecats” with an absolutely frigid synth arrangement, with Barradale singing wry lyrics about a torturous breakup in a classic handsome new wave voice. He’s not reinventing any wheels here, but he is making an...

From weatherproof jackets and pants to puffers, gloves, and socks, WIRED’s winter sports experts have got you covered.

The USB-C port has become a defacto connectivity standard for modern devices, largely supplanting the ugly mess of barrel jacks and micro USB connectors that once cursed us. While their reliability is good, they don’t last forever, and can be a pain to replace in most devices if they do fail. However, a new part from JAE Electronics could change that.
The problem with replacing USB connectors in most hardware is that they’re soldered in place. To swap them out, you have to master both desoldering and soldering leads of a rather fine pitch. It’s all rather messy. In the interest of satisfying the EU’s new Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR), JAE Electronics has developed a USB-C...

The guitarist Jimi Hendrix had a unique sound which has influenced countless musicians over the decades. He achieved it through mastery not only of his instrument, but of the complex feedback relationship between amplifier, environment, and guitar — coupled with a series of effects pedals including some then-unique ones made for him. Musical commentators have pored over his work for decades, but a recent piece in IEEE Spectrum is particularly interesting as it examines things from a technical perspective.
It centers around an electrical simulation of Hendrix’s effects chain, and makes an assertion that’s obvious on consideration but not the usual take on a Hendrix performance; that in his hands it became...
