Valve is rolling out a fresh batch of beta updates for its Steam Deck, one of which could help with servicing and repairs for the handheld gaming PC by listing internal components and saving owners from cracking the device open themselves to find out.

The new component lookup view will display the model and manufacturer of each major hardware element within individual Steam Decks. However, the list is only a snapshot of factory-installed components, and so won’t recognize or update for any fresh hardware that users install themselves. Users who have enabled beta client updates can access the new component lookup via Settings System Model/Serial Numbers button.

The feature will list factory-installed components, but not recognize new installations.

Valve said that the additional component transparency was being introduced because fans of the system had requested it, and mentioned its benefits for customers looking to repair or replace components via iFixit.

The exact manufacturer of individual components can have a surprising effect on the overall system, as was demonstrated earlier this year when gadget outfitting company Dbrand had to re-engineer its ‘Project Killswitch’ Steam Deck case. It turns out the case’s magnetic kickstand was slowing down the fans in some Steam Deck models — but only those with fans made by Delta, rather than Huaying. Valve notes that the Steam Deck will continue to use both Delta and Huaying fans in future, and that it’s “rolled in an engineered foam solution on the Steam Deck backplate to reduce noise” caused by

Google can’t afford to repeat its past mistakes

Google has never had the best track record for sticking with its hardware concepts, but with increasing ominous messages coming from the top about cost cutting and hiring slowdowns, now seems like a particularly unlucky time to be Made By Google.

This is the backdrop against which Google will fully unveil the long-teased Pixel 7 and 7 Pro and the even longer-teased Pixel Watch. Regarding the latter, the assignment is simple: don’t suck. “Maybe it’ll get better next year” has been the mantra for Android owners hoping for better wearables for the better part of the last five years. Things have been looking up as Google slowly made moves to improve its smartwatch offerings by acquiring Fitbit and unifying its own platform with Samsung’s Tizen with Wear OS 3. But progress has been slow, and in the meanwhile, Apple has been running laps around Android’s smartwatch options. The bar may be low, but the wait has been long, and Google has run out of time for any more false starts.

As for the Pixel 7 and 7 Pro, Google doesn’t need to look so far into its past to understand what note to do — only as far as last year. The Pixel 6 and 6 Pro marked a shift for the entire Pixel brand, as Google introduced its custom Tensor chipset and positioned

NASA’s Webb Telescope Spots Galaxies Merging Around ‘Monster’ Black Hole

Now that we have a powerful lens pointed toward the deepest regions of the universe at all times, our definition of “surprise” has slightly altered when it comes to astronomy pics.

It’s no longer surprising, really, when NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope reveals yet another brilliant, ancient piece of the cosmos. At this point, we know to expect nothing less from the trailblazing machine.

Instead, whenever the telescope sends back a jaw-dropping space image, it now elicits more of a “JWST strikes again” feeling. And still, our jaws legitimately drop every single time.

This sort of dissonant version of “surprise” has happened yet again — to a pretty extreme degree. Last week, scientists presented the JWST’s brilliant view of a galaxy cluster merging around a massive black hole that houses a rare quasar — aka an incomprehensibly bright jet of light spwing from the void’s chaotic center.

There’s a lot going on here, I know. But the team behind the find thinks it could escalate even further.

“We think something dramatic is about to happen in these systems,” Andrey Vayner, a Johns Hopkins astronomer and co-author of a study about the scene soon to be published in the Astrophysical Journal Letters, said in a statement. For now, you can check out a detailed outline of the discovery in a paper published on arXiv.

Want to breathe easy? Air purifiers might be able to help. How, you may ask? Air purifiers work to remove allergens and impurities from the air in your home or office, which is especially important if you suffer from allergies, asthma or other respiratory problems. Depending on the model you purchase, different filtration systems can eliminate different types of irritants, including pollen, smoke, dust, mold, pet dander and germs, and that can improve your overall respiratory health.

When buying an air purifier for your home or workplace, there are many aspects to consider, including size, price and features, but another important aspect to think about before you buy one is the size of the space you want to filter. It breaks down pretty simply, though: Buy an air purifier that is too small for your room, and you won’t reap the benefits. Keep that in mind as you shop.

We’ve rounded up some of the best air purifier deals available and have tried to include discounted options for every environment, from the smallest rooms to purifiers that can filter air for the entire house. We will update this list regularly as deals expire and new offers drop at various retailers, so keep checking back.

Garmin’s New Solar-Powered Watch Promises 70-Day Battery Life

Garmin wants to make charging your watch nearly a thing of the past. The fitness watch maker on Tuesday announced the Instinct Crossover, a hybrid watch that promises to provide up to 70 days of battery life if you purchase the solar-powered edition. That’s significantly longer than the one- to two-day battery life found on most traditional smartwatches and the roughly month-long battery life on other hybrid watches.

The Garmin Instinct Crossover starts at $500 and launches Tuesday, while the solar-powered model costs $550. International pricing wasn’t immediately available, but the US price for the base model converts roughly to £435 and AU$770, while the solar model pricing is about £477 and AU$848.

The Instinct Crossover is a hybrid smartwatch — meaning it includes some of the qualities of both smartwatches and regular analog watches. Hybrid watches typically offer longer battery life than regular smartwatches like the Apple Watch since they compromise on certain features. The Instinct Crossover, for example, doesn’t have a color display, but it can show notifications and supports Garmin Pay for digital payments. Like Garmin’s other Instinct watches, the new Crossover was designed primarily for outdoor enthusiasts looking for a rugged fitness-tracking device. It comes at a time when Garmin faces increased competition from traditional smartwatch makers like Apple and Samsung, which capture 29% and 9% of the overall smartwatch market, respectively, according to Counterpoint Research.

The Instinct Crossover has many of the health-tracking features you’d expect from a Garmin watch, like sleep tracking with
