One of the best things you can do for your online security is to make sure you have a robust, unique password on every single one of your accounts. But not many of us have the ability to memorize the login details for so many different services if the credentials are as strong as they ought to be. Using a password manager can make all of that much easier. Our favorite, 1Password, is on sale for up to 50 percent off. The 1Password for Families plan is half off at $2.49 per month for one year. That's about $30 for 12 months of access. The solo plan, 1Password for Individuals, has dropped from $3 per month to $2.24 for a year meaning you'd get 12 months of service for $27. So if you want an account for more than one person, the family plan is clearly the way to go. In part due to its industry standard encryption, other security measures and how straightforward it is to use, 1Password is our pick for the best password manager overall. (Disclosure: 1Password provides journalists free access to its individual plan, an offer I've taken up.) With the individual plan, you can store unlimited passwords and items, as well as 1GB of documents. A family plan includes access for up to 5 people and the same document storage capacity per person. 1Password's tutorial makes it easy to import your credentials from other password managers. The app rates the strength of each of your passwords so you can quickly see which ones you should update. There's an "open and fill" option that opens a website and plugs in your credentials to sign you in. What's more, 1Password offers support for passkeys, login credentials that are stored on your devices and protected by a PIN or biometric authentication method such as facial recognition or a fingerprint.

It's been a while since Konami teased Silent Hill f, a mainline game in the franchise that's set in 1960s rural Japan instead of the titular town. Now, the publisher has released a full trailer for the much-awaited game at an online event livestreamed on YouTube. Konami's Motoi Okamoto, who's in charge of the Silent Hill franchise, said the theme of the game is finding "beauty in terror," which is common in Japanese horror. He explained that when something is too beautiful and perfect, it becomes deeply unsettling. Okamoto said the developers wanted to examine how the elements of beauty and terror can co-exist in a psychological horror story. Indeed, the world of Silent Hill f is beautiful, even during moments that are supposed to be terrifying. It's set in the fictional town of Ebisugaoka based on the town of Kanayama, Gero in Gifu, which is mostly made up of mountains and forest. In the game, you play as high school student Shimizu Hinako who has to solve puzzles and confront monsters to survive after her hometown was consumed by a fog that transformed it into a grotesque copy of the real world. The game's setting was mostly imagined by Ryukishi07 known for the When They Cry visual novel horror and murder mystery series. Silent Hill f doesn't have a release date yet, but it will be available on the Playstation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam and Epic Games.This article originally appeared on Engadget at https://www.engadget.com/gaming/silent-hill-f-trailer-shows-the-games-beautiful-backdrop-and-unsettling-mood-123024347.html?src=rss

The company behind Roomba robovacs told investors earlier this week that revenue was substantially down and its struggling to pay its debts. Amazon was briefly tapped to acquire the robot company iRobot, but the threat of a European Commission investigation led to the retailer terminating the deal apparently happy enough to pay off the $94 million termination fee. That, however, isnt enough to tackle the $200 million loan iRobot took out to survive long enough for Amazon to come to the rescue. Its extra rough when the company announced, just the week before, a bunch of new models, including a new Roomba that can compact debris and dust, so it only needs to be emptied every few weeks. At the same time, rival robot vacuum cleaners are getting more versatile, more complicated and more intriguing. This years CES had a standout barrage of new robovacs that can multitask and even pack robot arms inside, like something from a cartoon. But many of these devices havent yet launched in earnest, while iRobot has delivered solid floor cleaners for years. Hopefully, it can continue that run.

Engadget The Mac Studio is Apples ultimate performance computer, and thats true with either an M4 Max or an M3 Ultra processor. It might seem like a step backward, but the M3 Ultra is indeed Apples best-performing processor. But it comes at a cost. The M3 Ultra starts at $4,000 and goes up from there if you want to boost other specs to match it. We tested the M4 Max model the one most people will want as the base configuration is half the price. Read on for our review, but its a solid proposition for creators. Continue reading. Microsoft might finally be getting into handhelds With a PC maker partner. A report from Windows Central says Microsoft is partnering with a PC maker to create a portable device, codenamed Keenan. It would feature Xbox design elements, likely run Windows 11 and could be revealed this year. The plan may be to simplify Windows for handheld use, potentially with a launcher or console-like interface one of the major pain points on handheld gaming PCs, and something SteamOS and Steam Decks largely avoid. Jason Ronald, VP of Next Generation at Microsoft, hinted at these projects at CES earlier this year. He said Microsoft wants to bring the best of Xbox and Windows together and hinted there would be more to share later this year. Continue reading. PlayStation experiments with AI-powered characters you can talk to They may even offer contextual hints to improve your chances. Sony An internal video from Sonys PlayStation group was leaked to The Verge, demonstrating an AI-powered version of Aloy, the Horizon game series protagonist. Aloy was able to both narrate and converse with the presenter as you play the game. The character could also respond in real-time to questions, with a synthesized voice that matched facial animations. The face-to-face chat between the presenter and the on-screen character wasnt super remarkable, but Aloys running commentary was a little more intriguing. She could explain enemies typically found in the surrounding area and flag her own health levels and that shes under attack. Unfortunately, the video was pulled offline, but with GDC around the corner, hopefully, Sony will have more to share soon. Continue reading.
