Don't throw away your old GTX 1060: Use it as a dedicated 'Frame Gen' card
Upscaling and frame generation are critical features today, especially since game optimization has seemingly only gotten worse. If you're using a GPU that doesn't natively support either, you're in luck: There is a third-party option that works on any GPU.
Switch 2 price, PS6 release could be impacted by memory shortage
The RAM shortage due to AI is impacting tech prices and release dates. In the video game space, the next PlayStation console may be delayed, and the Switch 2 could see a price spike, Bloomberg reports.
SEE ALSO: PlayStation State of Play February 2026: How to watch, top games we hope to seeSony is considering pushing back the debut of the PlayStation 6 to 2028 or 2029, according to people familiar with the situation interviewed by Bloomberg. Mashable reported back in December that this might happen, so there's only been confirmation of the bad news. Previous leaks estimated the PS6's release for 2027.
Further, due to memory shortages, Nintendo is apparently considering increasing the price of the Switch 2 later this year, according to Bloomberg. In 2025, rumors surfaced about the Switch 2's price increasing due to tariffs, but that didn't materialize.
Neither Sony nor Nintendo responded to Bloomberg's request for comment.
Why it makes sense to have a VPS as a homelabber

How to use Paste Link in Excel and PowerPoint for automatic chart updates
The most tedious part of presenting your figures isn't generating the data itself; it's manually moving Excel charts into PowerPoint. But there's a better way. Instead of the copy-paste grind, use Paste Link to create a live bridge. That way, when you amend your Excel data, your PowerPoint slides update automatically. And the best bit? It's really simple.
The world's first flip phone turns 30 in 2026—here's what new foldables could learn from it
In 1996, mobile phones were not very interesting. My dad had one provided by his employer, and it was this big walkie-talkie thing that charged upright in a chunky charging base. So you could understand that flipping open a magazine and seeing a photo of the Motorola StarTAC felt like someone selling a communicator from Star Trek to the public.

Solar eclipse 2026: An eclipse will happen Tuesday, but its only viewable from a remote spot
The first solar eclipse of 2026 will hit our skies this week, with an annular eclipse taking place on Tuesday. This type of solar eclipse creates a "ring of fire" around the sun, but unfortunately, many of won't be able to spot this solar phenomenon. Still curious? Keep reading to find out what's happening, and where in the world you need to be to see it.
When is the solar eclipse?The annular solar eclipse will take place on Tuesday, Feb. 17. According to Time and Date, the first sightings of the eclipse will begin at 6:42 a.m. ET.
Where can you see the solar eclipse?Unfortunately, this annular solar eclipse is a remote one. The only place to be able to view the full eclipse will be Antartica. However, some places in the Southern Hemisphere will get a glimpse of a partial eclipse, according to Time and Date.
What is an annular solar eclipse?An annular solar eclipse happens when the Moon passes between the Earth and the Sun, but is slightly too far away to completely cover the Sun, according to NASA. This creates a bright “ring of fire” around the Moon. This is different to a total solar eclipse where the sun is fully hidden.
A partial solar eclipse happens when the Moon only covers part of the Sun. So, from these locations in the Southern Hemisphere, the Sun looks like it has a chunk taken out of it, rather than forming a full ring.
How to see a solar eclipseIf you happen to be in one of the viewing spots for the partial eclipse (or maybe, somehow, you're in Antartica?), it's important to follow specific guidance for looking at the eclipse. Even with an annular eclipse, the same rule of thumb applies to never look at the sun directly.
To safely view the eclipse, NASA recommends using solar viewing glasses or making your own eclipse projector using a cardboard box.

Google responds to claim that it stole NPR hosts voice
Radio host David Greene is suing Google, alleging that the tech giant copied his voice for its NotebookLM AI tool, the Washington Post and others reported — and Google has responded.
Greene is the former co-host of NPR's Morning Edition and currently the host of the Left, Right, & Center podcast from the NPR member station KCRW. Greene found out about NotebookLM, which autogenerates podcasts, from a former coworker and was "completely freaked out," he told the Post.
SEE ALSO: OpenClaw founder Peter Steinberger joins OpenAIThe complaint, which was filed on January 23 in California, states that Google "sought to replicate Mr. Greene's distinctive voice — a voice made iconic over decades of decorated radio and public commentary — to create synthetic audio products that mimic his delivery, cadence, and persona." The suit claims that Google violated California and common law statutory right to publicity, which concerns unauthorized uses of someone's likeness, and California's unfair competition law. It also alleges that Google unjustly benefited from Greene's voice.
Google told the Post and other publications that NotebookLM has nothing to do with Greene. "These allegations are baseless," Google spokesperson José Castañeda told Gizmodo. "The sound of the male voice in NotebookLM's Audio Overviews is based on a paid professional actor Google hired."
The use of people's likeness in AI models, as well as the use of copyrighted materials to train models, has been a contentious topic in recent years. In 2024, OpenAI took down its AI-powered voice, Sky, after allegations that it sounded like Scarlett Johansson, who explicitly didn't give the company permission to use her likeness. Several lawsuits have been launched against major tech and AI companies using copyrighted material to train their AI.
Back in January, major artists, including Johansson, launched a campaign against AI slop and theft.
Disclosure: Ziff Davis, Mashable’s parent company, in April 2025 filed a lawsuit against OpenAI, alleging it infringed Ziff Davis copyrights in training and operating its AI systems.

5 multi-monitor tweaks that made my Windows workflow more productive
I've been running a multi-monitor setup for years, long enough that it feels less like a power-user flex and more like basic survival gear. Once you get used to having multiple screens, going back to a single display feels cramped and slow. But living in multi-monitor land also comes with its own set of problems. Windows snapping to the wrong screen, mismatched resolutions that make the mouse feel like it's hitting invisible walls, windows opening where you didn't expect them, and constant little interruptions that break your focus more than you realize.

The Yoga 7i gives you enough screen real estate for multitasking while also being portable enough to throw in your bag, and the 360-degree hinge lets you prop it up for movies without the keyboard getting in the way. At $400 off, the specs are hard to beat: you get the snappy Intel Core Ultra 7 and a 1TB SSD, which is double the storage you typically see in this price bracket. It's a little heavy to use as a handheld tablet for long, but as a flexible workstation, it’s solid.

Its mini LED backlight allows for a wide and accurate color spectrum with deep contrast — even in bright rooms. Our friends at CNET (also owned by Ziff Davis) dubbed it the "best TV under $1,000" last year and its current discount makes it an absolute steal. At $529.99, it's just $32 away from its lowest price ever (from Black Friday). Mashable's own TV expert says it's "mind-blowing it doesn't cost more than it does."

Last spring when I tested the DreamCloud Premier Hybrid mattress, I was shocked by the quality to price ratio. It feels like a luxury mattress you'd encounter at a 5-star hotel, but its price falls into the affordable range. In fact, a single night's stay at some 5-star resorts would cost more than this mattress.
The DreamCloud Premier is a hybrid bed that combines a plush pillow-top with ultra supportive memory foam and coil layers. The edge-support is also noteworthy. When testing, I felt like this was a great option for couples thanks to the motion isolation or anyone who's a combination sleeper and needs support in several positions.
The DreamCloud Presidents Day Sale tosses in a mattress protector, bamboo sheet set, and two cooling pillows. If you're shopping for a queen-size, you'll be able to get the DreamCloud Premier Hybrid with these accessories for $1,099.

Before we know it, we'll be back to spending weekends at the campground. But this year, upgrade your setup with a portable power station. This will allow you to keep phones charged up, recharge the drone batteries, and have a functional coffee maker. I've tested dozens of power stations and it's hard to go wrong with the Anker Solix C1000. It has plenty of ports for keeping gadgets charged up while camping, and there's even a lightbar for better illumination.
On Anker's website, the Solix C1000 has a list price of $999, but it's on sale at Amazon for only $429.99. Grab a solar panel to also pack along while camping, and you'll be in line for unlimited battery power.
