File Extensions Explained If you open a file with one of these file extensions, your computer could, without your continued permission, run one or more operations programmed into that file. To put it in even simpler terms, these files either belong to programs, scripts, or program extensions and plugins. They’re meant to run and do things on your computer, only you can’t be sure exactly what they’re running or doing. That’s why it’s always crucial to only run them when they come from a trusted source or website....

Meta, formerly known as Facebook, just revealed it’s shuttering its experimental video speed-dating service, called Sparked, according to a company email acquired by TechCrunch. Sparked was developed by Meta’s in-house NPE team, who often dabble in experimental concepts. The service was unique in that it eschewed traditional dating app design principles in favor of group video chats that were then broken down into four-minute and 10-minute one-on-one chats between willing participants....

To that end, Meta is throwing its Skynet hat into the ring by releasing its latest chatbot, Blender Bot 3, on the web, so we can test out its conversational abilities. Just click the link and start chatting, but be nice. We don’t want another Tay on our hands, which was Microsoft’s chatbot that Twitter users taught to be a racist jerk in mere hours. Why did Meta release Blender Bot 3 on the Internet for everyone and their uncle to interact with?...

Windows 11’s new KB5007262 update (to OS build 22000.348) has been made available as an optional download and includes several fixes. It’s also somewhat emoji-heavy, with support being added for Emoji 13.1, as well as updating all previous Segoe UI Emoji to Fluent 2D. So basically, your Windows 11 (sorry, Windows 10 users) emojis will look a bit different going forward. It’s worth noting that the 3D emojis that Microsoft revealed earlier in the year aren’t going to be the new norm here....

With time marching inevitably forward, it’s a given that we’d have to say goodbye to the 3DS and Wii U eShops eventually. It might feel like it’s too soon, and in some respects, it always will be, but both systems are roughly a decade old, and the Switch has been an absolute powerhouse. But even though the era is coming to an end, you won’t have to scramble to make sure all of your purchased games are installed right away....

The software is free for Windows users. There’s also a Mac version but the free edition is for one month only. Panda Dome Features Due to the program having professional-level features only if you pay, the free edition is limited in comparison. This means you don’t get a firewall program, Wi-Fi networks aren’t protected, parental controls aren’t an option, and other tools like a password manager aren’t included. That said, those features can be had elsewhere for free—you don’t need to get them here as a bundle....

Most homes have 2-phase wiring that splits into two separate 110-volt legs. Electrically, this is like having two separate homes because X-10 signals on one phase can’t reach X-10 devices on the other phase. Phase couplers provide a bridge between these two separate wiring systems. Dryer Outlets Make Good Bridges Clothes dryers typically run off 220 volts and the dryer outlet has both phases wired to it. Many phase couplers are designed to plug into a 220-volt outlet (any 220 outlets will work) as a pass-through and provide an X-10 signal bridge between phases....

Wireless products such as telephones, intercoms, computers, security systems, and speakers can all lead to less-than-optimum performance in your wireless home automation system.
