The new animated Devil May Cry animated series on Netflix features an extensive cast of demons and demon hunters who are constantly fighting each other with over-the-top weapons, incredible powers, and supernatural abilities. This shouldnt be much of a surprise, seeing as its a loose adaptation of Capcoms classic hack-and-slash game franchise, which is famous for its many powerful characters.

The best CR-56 AMAX loadout in Black Ops 6 may come as a surprise given that this is another simple automatic assault rifle or at least, thats what it seems like on the face of it. Its another familiar face returning to the series from both Modern Warfare 2019 and Warzone, joining season 3 as Verdansk makes its way back to the battle royale mode.However, while this gun is a strong contender for one of the best guns in Black Ops 6 with a more traditional setup, the attachments would be pretty much identical to our recommended Kilo 141 loadout. So for a little more variety, were opting for one of the CR-56 AMAXs only unique attachments, which converts it into a semi-automatic assault rifle, but also increases the damage considerably.Heres our recommendation for the best CR-56 AMAX loadout in Black Ops 6, alongside the best class to use with it and how to unlock the gun in the first place.How to unlock the CR-56 AMAX in Black Ops 6To unlock the CR-56 AMAX in Black Ops 6 Season 3, you must complete page six of the battle pass. Since each page has seven rewards, this means you must spend a total of 42 battle pass tokens to get your hands on the CR-56 AMAX, but the silver lining is that along the way, youll also unlock the HDR sniper rifle at the end of page three.Best CR-56 AMAX loadout in Black Ops 6Heres the best CR-56 loadout in Black Ops 6:Optic: Willis 3XMuzzle: Ported CompensatorBarrel: Long BarrelUnderbarrel: Vertical ForegripMagazine: M-67 10-R MagsRear Grip: Quickdraw GripStock: Combat StockFire Mods: Recoil SpringsThe core attachment to this CR-56 AMAX build is the M-67 10-R Magazine, because this increases your weapon damage, aim down sight speed, and reload speed, albeit in exchange for a hit to the recoil control. However, it also makes the gun fire exclusively in semi-auto mode, which means it basically becomes a DMR. To manage this, you need eight attachments, so use the Gunfighter wildcard.As a result, the CR-56 AMAX goes from being a weapon suited to short to mid-range engagements to one that excels at longer distances, though youll need to slow down your playstyle. It may be a stretch to call this loadout the outright best for the gun, but its certainly a contender and it offers a fresher way to play rather than just mimicking a number of the other top assault rifles such as the XM4 and Krig C.To make this build work, youll want a decent optical sight. Our favourite is the Willis 3X, but you may also have luck with the Hawker Hybrid due to its ability to toggle an iron sight view when needed. That, combined with the Long Barrel for increased damage, means youll be much more effective at range.Go for the Ported Compensator muzzle attachment, thanks to its first shot recoil control buff, because without it, the first shot can veer off to the side afterward. The Vertical Foregrip helps with the recoil even more (not to mention the Recoil Springs fire mod). Finally, the Quickdraw Grip lets you aim down the sights quicker which is handy with a 3X zoom that naturally has a slower ADS time and the Combat Stock offers flinch resistance, so you can stay on target when youre dodging return fire.Best CR-56 AMAX class in Black Ops 6Heres the best class to use alongside the CR-56 AMAX in Black Ops 6:Pistol: GrekhovaMelee: KatanasTactical: FlashbangLethal: Blast TrapField Upgrade: NeurogasPerk 1: NinjaPerk 2: Forward IntelPerk 3: Cold-BloodedSpecialty: ReconWildcard: GunfighterSince this loadout is a little more unorthodox than your standard assault rifle, weve adapted the class to match. Firstly though, it uses the often-recommended Grekhova due to its ability to finish off enemies at close range, alongside the Katanas, which are the best melee weapon in the game right now.The Flashbang is always a reliable tactical option, but then opt for the Blast Trap in the lethal spot because youre likely to be posted up somewhere or defending an area, so this will come in handy taking out or at least distracting any enemies that try to get behind you. The same goes for the Neurogas field upgrade, because youll be able to turn around and finish them off.Weve opted for the blue perks thanks to the Recon specialty, which lets you see enemies through walls for a short while after respawning, plus your HUD will flash when an enemy is outside of your view. Ninja completely muffles your footsteps, so while you wont be moving around too much with this style of play, it will stop enemies from hearing you when you do.Forward Intel shows you the direction enemies are traveling when revealed with a UAV, so you can stop foes from coming up behind you more effectively, and Cold-Blooded means enemy AI targeting and thermal optics cant target you. Theres nothing worse than being taken out by an enemy AI scorestreak when youre on a streak yourself.Finally, go for Gunfighter as the wildcard due, of course, to the three extra attachments for your primary weapon, but if you want to stick with just five, go for Perk Greed here and pick either Flak Jacket or Tac Mask to defend you from incoming throwables.

Their second generation earbuds brought some great upgrades, and make them a great value for any Pixel user (although they're compatible with any Android and have limited iOS support). Right now, you can get the Pixel Buds Pro 2 for $179 (originally $229), matching the lowest price they've ever been according to price-tracking tools. Google Pixel Buds Pro 2 Brand:Google, Color: Hazel, Ear Placement:In Ear, Noise Control: Active Noise Cancellation $259.00 at Amazon Get Deal Get Deal $259.00 at Amazon The list price for the new Pixel Buds Pro 2 is $29 more than the original Pixel Buds Pro, which have since dropped to $111. Some of the improvements Google has made to the new earbuds to justify the price include a new twisting mechanism that secures to the ear better for more intense workouts, better active noise-cancelling (ANC) thanks to the more snug fit, better audio processing with the new Tensor A1 chip, longer battery life of about eight hours with ANC on and 31 hours from the charging case, and the inclusion og Gemini Live, Android's AI voice assistant. Some things that were not improved this time around: the drivers, wireless charging, and the equalizer options are all the same as the previous generation. The earbuds have an IP54 rating for water resistance and the charging case is also water resistant, with an IPX4 rating. With a full charge, you can expect eight hours of continuous listening with ANC on (12 hours with ANC off) plus an additional 22 hours (36 hours with ANC off) from the charging case. As CNET's review explains, the audio and ANC quality the earbuds will offer you depends on how good of a snug fit you'll get from them. If you're looking for the latest pair of ANC Pixel earbuds with Gemini virtual AI assistant, a smaller design, better ANC, audio and mic quality, these are a good option at this price.

Nintendo has delayed US Switch 2 pre-orders in response to the new set of tariffs announced by President Donald Trump earlier this week, as first reported by Polygon. Following Nintendo's announcement of the console on Wednesday, pre-orders in the United States were slated to open on April 9. They're now delayed indefinitely."Pre-orders for Nintendo Switch 2 in the US will not start April 9, 2025 in order to assess the potential impact of tariffs and evolving market conditions," the company told Engadget. "Nintendo will update timing at a later date. The launch date of June 5, 2025 is unchanged."As mentioned earlier, Nintendo officially announced the Switch 2 on April 2. Hours later, the Trump administration said it would impose a sweeping set of new tariffs targeted against a broad swath of countries, including Japan, China and Vietnam. Products from the latter two countries, where Nintendo manufactures much of its hardware, will be subject to import duties of 54 percent and 46 percent, respectively.In the US, Nintendo said the Switch 2 would cost $450. As Polygon notes, sticker shock was already dominating the conversation around Nintendo's new handheld, with many fans begging the company to "drop the price!" of console during its recent livestreams. It's unclear what could happen following Nintendo's assessment of the situation, but one possibility is that the company could allocate less stock for the US market.This article originally appeared on Engadget at https://www.engadget.com/gaming/nintendo/nintendo-delays-switch-2-us-pre-orders-following-trump-tariffs-150747208.html?src=rss

Not only is the current food system a threat to our health, its also a threat to our planet. As a food producer, the challenge is clear: How do we transition toward more nutrient-dense, environmentally responsible food choices without compromising taste or accessibility?Modern food production has often emphasized convenience, leading to highly processed products that lack substance and sustenance. However, traditional diets, such as the Mediterranean diet, offer a time-tested solution. Rooted in whole, plant-based ingredients, these diets highlight a variety of grains, legumes, and plant-based proteins that provide essential nutrients while reducing the environmental footprint of food production. By returning to these principles, we can create a more sustainable and nutritious future.Learn from traditional dietsFor centuries, Mediterranean communities have thrived on ingredients that not only support long-term health but also align with sustainable farming practices. Unlike modern industrial agriculture, which prioritizes monoculture crops and mass production, traditional food systems accentuate biodiversity and soil regeneration.Ancient grains like buckwheat are regaining popularity for their rich nutrient profiles and minimal environmental impact. Legumes, such as chickpeas and lentils, are packed with plant-based protein, fiber, and essential minerals while also playing a crucial role in the rise of sustainable practices in modern agriculture. We need to take inspiration from these traditional approaches and champion minimally processed ingredients for the sake of human health and ecological stability.Interestingly, many Americans report that while traveling in Italy, they experience fewer food intolerances and improved digestiondespite indulging more during their vacations. This may be attributed to Italian cuisines deep-rooted tradition and propensity toward whole, minimally processed foods and traditional dishes made with simple, high-quality ingredients.Innovation to address modern challengesTraditional food systems are not the sole answer to todays complex issues of food security, climate change, and health. We must also leverage technology, research, innovation, and a little bit of creativity.The use of spirulina is the perfect example of how innovation can build on traditional principles to create more sustainable and nutrient-dense food options. Called the food of the future by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, spirulina is a blue-green algae with superfood benefits which has been consumed for centuries, providing a rich source of protein, vitamins, and minerals. What makes it especially promising for the future of food is its minimal environmental footprintit requires very little water, land, and energy to produce. It also contributes to the reduction of greenhouse gasesproduction can be carbon neutral or even carbon negative, as the growing cells sequester CO2.Many brands are now incorporating ingredients like spirulina into their product offerings, from snacks to beverages and even in more unexpected areas like pasta. For example, at Felicia we source Italian Apulia Kundi spirulina directly from our spirulina park at the Italian headquarters, a facility dedicated to growing these precious microalgae by using the water resulting from the pasta-making process. The water is purified and reused to make the pasta, fostering a virtuous circular economy.This type of sustainable production is a crucial step in our shared journey toward a healthier planet and population. But for innovation like this to really make an impact, it needs to happen at every stage, from food production to product design and consumer education. Creating variety in ones diet doesnt have to be complicatedit can be as simple as incorporating diverse grains, legumes, and vegetables into daily meals and building a colorful plate to delight the senses, without compromising on taste. As brands, we hold a responsibility to our consumers to create the products that make this possible.By embracing both traditional wisdom and modern innovation, with renewed passion, creativity and care, we can reach a thriving future.Carlo Stocco is managing director, North America at Felicia and Andriani.
