That means you're going to need a fast and spacious microSD card, and it just so happens that SanDisk's special 256GB microSD card is only $21 at Amazon right now. This one's licensed for the Nintendo Switch and themed with a Mario Super Star, plus performant enough to handle your games with aplomb. With a 22% discount, this is a fun and practical get.
This SanDisk microSD card supports read speeds of up to 100 MB/s and write speeds of up to 90 MB/s, which is enough to move files and save data in a flash while reliably backing up all your game data. And even though rumors say that the Nintendo Switch 2 will feature a bit more storage space than the Switch, it's way too easy to run out of space with how big modern games have gotten. One microSD card is the minimum!
So take advantage of this timely deal and get yourself the 256GB SanDisk Nintendo Switch microSD card on sale before the Switch 2 launches. (Other themes are also on sale, but not at this price. The Pikachu version is $30 while the Fortnite Cuddle Team Leader version is $26. All of them have the exact same specs.)

As it turns out, March was a particularly bad month for Windows 10. The aging operating system saw its biggest drop in user base to date, a whopping 4.43 percentage points. Windows 10 is now running on 54.23 percent of Windows computers worldwide.
On the other hand, Windows 11 saw its biggest user growth in three years. The share of Windows 11 users grew by 4.53 percentage points, to 42.66 percent of all Windows desktop users. That's still significantly behind Windows 10, but it's the rate that's important here.
It seems Microsoft's constant alerts about Windows 10 reaching end of support in October are finally showing results. With just six months to go, users are running out of time.
If you're still on Windows 10, you'll need to upgrade to Windows 11 or pay to extend Windows 10 support. If you do neither, you'll stop receiving security updates and your PC will become increasingly vu

ChatGPT's built-in image generation feature is now available to everyone. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman said last week that the company is delaying its rollout to free tier "for a while," because the tool was way more popular than they had expected. But the company made the feature available to free users over the weekend, allowing them to generate images from within ChatGPT and without having to switch to OpenAI's DALL-E generator. Prior to its rollout to the free tier, the tool was only available to Plus, Pro and Team subscribers.
Altman previously said that free users will get a limit of three images per day. Based on our experience trying it out, some accounts are limited to just one a day. Those who find themselves able to generate more than one will still have to wait anywhere between a few minutes and a few hours. One of the tool's most popular uses that we've seen so far is the creation of Ghibli-style images using real-life photos. Users simply have to upload the photo they want to use and then instruct ChatGPT in natural language to create a Ghibli-style version of it. The trend had raised concerns, yet again, about the legality of using copyrighted work as training data for artificial intelligence. It also resurfaced the reaction of Hayao Miyazaki, Studio Ghibli's founder, upon being shown AI-generated animation years ago. "I strongly feel that this is an insult to life itself," the director said.
In a tweet, Altman said that the tool could still exhibit erra

When we reviewed the iPhone 16 Pro last year, Apple Intelligence was barely available. Since then, the iPhone 16 series has benefitted from several new features, apps and improvements. Some (or most) of them were Apple Intelligence features that were teased back at WWDC 2024, months before the iPhone 16 Pro launched.
AI features weren't the only changes this time around, with the iPhone 16 getting an entirely new button. The so-called Camera Control wasn't just a simple app shortcut, but an elaborate multifunction button that offered a haptic half-press and the ability to swipe across to adjust camera settings and options.
Managing Editor Cherlynn Low said we were still "waiting on Apple Intelligence" in our initial review. Now, as we hit iOS 18.4, was it worth the wait?
iOS 18 and Apple Intelligence so far

Apple Intelligence was late, arriving as part of iOS 18.1 back in October 2024. Initial generative AI features included writing tools like proofreading and rewriting, as

If you've been paying attention, you know that the Windows world is badly fragmented. Not only are users split between Windows 10 and Windows 11, but Windows 11 users aren't even all on the same version. Now, over the past year, AI has added another wrinkle with Microsoft mainly developing its Copilot PC features for Qualcomm's Snapdragon X platform while neglecting AMD's Ryzen AI 300 and Intel's Core Ultra 200 series processors.
Fortunately, that's changing. On Monday, Microsoft wrote in a blog post that PCs powered by AMD Ryzen AI 300 series, Intel Core Ultra 200V, and Snapdragon X series processors are all eligible for "exclusive Copilot PC experiences like Live Captions, Cocreator, Restyle Image, and Image Creator." The word "like" offers some wiggle room, since other AI-powered experiences—such as the ability to resize photos—is only available in the Photos app on PCs running on a Snapdragon chip.
Still, it's a major step up for AMD and Intel. Microsoft and its partners launched Copilot PCs in May 2024, showing off all of its favored AI features on Snapdragon machines. Although Microsoft promised that it would soon bring those features to Copilot PCs powered by AMD and Intel, months passed… Microsoft then eventually released Windows Recall for Copilot Snapdragon PCs, then offered that feature
