After Asus and Dell, MSI is launching a Nvidia DGX Spark clone, but I am still skeptical about the whole 'desktop AI supercomputer' moniker

TikTok is making waves at Cannes, the glitzy film festival known for its red carpets and cinematic prestige. While U.S. lawmakers debate banning the app over security concerns, the platform’s vibrant presence at Cannes—showcasing influencer collaborations and branded content—feels worlds away from those political tensions. It’s a reminder of TikTok’s cultural clout, even as its future hangs in the balance.

WIRED put a bunch of pillows through the wringer—literally and figuratively—to find the top nine picks for 2025. Whether you’re a side sleeper, back snoozer, or someone who ends up in a blanket burrito by dawn, they’ve got a recommendation to keep your head happy.

Editor’s Note: Let’s face it, bad pillows ruin sleep, and bad sleep ruins everything else. This isn’t just fluff—WIRED’s deep dive saves you the hassle of trial-and-error (and neck pain) by narrowing down the best options. If you’ve ever woken up with a crick in your neck, this one’s worth a skim.

The FDA has greenlit a groundbreaking HIV prevention method—a twice-yearly injection called lenacapavir that’s nearly 100% effective in clinical trials. While this could revolutionize HIV prevention, especially for high-risk groups, there’s a major catch: cost. Will it be accessible to those who need it most?

Editor’s Note: This isn’t just another medical approval—it’s a potential game-changer in the fight against HIV. Imagine replacing daily pills with a shot you only need twice a year. But like many medical breakthroughs, the real hurdle isn’t science; it’s whether the drug will be priced (and covered) in a way that actually reaches people. If it does, this could drastically cut new HIV cases. If not, it’ll join the list of "miracle" treatments that few can afford.

If you've just upgraded your iPhone to iOS 18.5, don't skip these six tweaks—they'll help your phone run smoother, save battery, and keep your data more secure. Think of it like tuning up a car after an oil change; small adjustments now can prevent headaches later.

Editor’s Note: iOS updates often come with hidden settings or default options that might not be ideal for everyone. This isn’t about fear-mongering—it’s practical advice to get the most out of your device without digging through menus yourself. For iPhone users, it’s a quick win to optimize performance right after updating.

HBO's new film Mountainhead dives into Hollywood's increasingly dark portrayal of tech billionaires, framing them as modern-day villains rather than visionary heroes. The movie reflects a broader cultural shift—where Silicon Valley’s elite, once celebrated as disruptors, are now often depicted as power-hungry or morally dubious. Bloomberg’s Ellen Huet unpacks how this mirrors real-world skepticism toward tech’s unchecked influence.

Editor’s Note: It’s not just about one movie—Mountainhead taps into a growing unease with tech’s role in society. When pop culture starts painting moguls as antagonists, it’s a sign that public trust is eroding. Whether you love or hate tech titans, this shift in storytelling says a lot about how their legacies are being rewritten in real time.
