| ⏰ Today's Big Stories... in 30 Seconds | | | Today We Watched, Read, and Listened to (so you don't have to): | | 222 articles, 15 podcasts, 8 press releases, 256 tweets, and 11 YouTube videos | | | 1. New Camera Module 3 Brings Autofocus to Raspberry Pi | | Raspberry Pi is giving people more of what they want via the autofocus-capable Camera Module 3. Each version of the new module can capture in-focus images as close as 5cm away, the camera sensor has been upgraded to 12MP, and it now supports (HDR). Love it! It's available now for $25-$35. | | 2. Delays Will No Longer Affect iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max Orders | | Those eager to get their hands on the latest iPhone 14 Pro models will be happy to know that whatever delays were affecting online orders seem to have been resolved, according to MacRumors. Gone are the three-to-four week shipping times in favor or a more reasonable 24 hours. Talk about fast. | | 3. Steam Sets New Record With 10 Million Active In-Game Players | | There are a lot of Steam players these days, as the gaming platform recently hit 10 million concurrent in-game players, setting a brand new record. Steam also hit 33 million concurrent online users, meaning a lot of us are just logged in—not even playing a game. It helps it's not resource-intensive like Chrome. | | | It's rough out there for non-Microsoft/Apple/Google OSs | | | The Raspberry Pi may have its fans and a variety of uses, but it still doesn't come close to the control the major operating systems have on the market. Now, yes, the Pi isn't trying to compete with them, but it's still wild to see that it and other OSes combined can't even match OS X's market share of 5.5%. | | | 🔥 Today's Hot Deal | | There's always a need for a portable speaker, and this Tribit StormBox Micro 2 (black) should be one to consider next time you're shopping for one. It's down to $47.39 on Amazon right now, and has Bluetooth, a 12 hr battery life, a 120ft range, and it's waterproof. Consider us tempted. | | | | | "What goes up must come down." —Jerri Ledford, Senior Editor | | | 💎 You Know You Want It | | No one wants to sit at a real desk anymore? | | Spend a lot of time on your couch with a mouse and keyboard? Then you definitely need the Couchmaster Cycon2 Lap Desk, which is just what it sounds like: a desk that rests on your lap that your accessories can comfortably be used on. It even has six USB 3 ports and side pockets! Nice. | | | Can you listen and read at the same time? | | Some people who live with hearing impairments could use some tech-based assistance from time to time, and these new XanderGlasses that provide real-time captions could be just the thing. More AR stuff like this, please. | | |
