You can check your Wordles with Wordle Bot right here. A bit of a tricky one today. I chose almost all the same words as the Wordle Bot today, also, even stooping to use the Bots favorite opening word, CRANE. From here, I went with my favorite second guess after using A and E in the first guess: HOIST. This slashed the 191 words I had left down to just 4. Unfortunately, just like the Bot, I guessed OUTER next, and the Wordle was OTTER. I think otters are the most adorable animals. Theyre so playful and cute!Competitive Wordle ScoreToday's Wordle BotCredit: Erik KainA total wash today. 0 points for guessing in four and 0 for tying the Bot.

Enjoy!Todays Wordle EtymologyThe word otter comes from the Old English otor or oter, which itself derives from Proto-Germanic utraz. This, in turn, traces back to the Proto-Indo-European root udr- or udros, meaning "water animal" or "water creature," related to ud- ("water"). This root is also linked to the Sanskrit udra (meaning "aquatic animal") and the Greek hydra (as in the mythical water serpent).Let me know how you fared with your Wordle today on Twitter, Instagram or Facebook.

Wiim has just given us a sneak peek at its next product: the Vibelink Amp. Its a 100-watt-per-channel, two-channel amplifier that doesnt have any streaming smarts built-in. Wiim unveiled the Vibelink Amp at the Bristol Hi-Fi Show.For now, Wiim isnt revealing many details. We know that it will get its official launch in March, but the company hasnt said how much it will cost. In 2024, Wiim released the Amp Pro, a two-channel, 120-watt-per-channel amp with built-in streaming for $369, so that may give us a sense of where the Vibelink will end up likely less than the Amp Pro given the Vibelink lacks streaming features.Recommended VideosOddly, Wiim says that the Vibelink is designed for high-fidelity sound across digital and analog sources, but so far it has only told us about its digital compatibility: Wiim says there will be digitial optical and coaxial inputs, which work with a wide range of variable sample rates and bit depths, ensuring maximum compatibility and audio flexibility.Please enable Javascript to view this contentThe only official photo of the Vibelink Amp so far (above) shows that the device has the same footprint as the companys flagship streamer, the Wiim Ultra, making it an ideal amplifier for people who either already own an Ultra or plan to create a system from scratch.Wiim has been on a tear recently. In 2024, it launched the Ultra and Wiim Amp Pro, as well as the first Wiim-compatible wireless speakers in partnership with Audio Pro.Its quickly building an ecosystem of wireless and wired audio products that can compete with Sonos at a time when Sonos is working through major upheavals that began with a botched app update in May 2024 that left many of its customers with limited functionality on their Sonos systems.Wiims software reproduces many of the features found in the Sonos app, including universal search, while its advanced menu options provide far more tweaks for audiophiles.Editors Recommendations

Sam Altman, in a Saturday post on X, announced his baby had been born "early."The newborn will be "in the NICU for awhile," the OpenAI CEO said, but added, "he is doing well.""I have never felt such love," Altman wrote.Sam Altman has welcomed a baby, he announced Saturday in a post on X."welcome to the world, little guy!" the OpenAI head wrote, alongside a close-up photo of the newborn, with the baby's hand grasping an adult's finger."He came early and is going to be in the nicu for awhile," Altman continued, referring to the neonatal intensive care unit, where newborns receive specialized medical treatment after birth. "He is doing well and it's really nice to be in a little bubble taking care of him. i have never felt such love."Altman, who is married to software engineer Oliver Mulherin, hasn't said if he plans to take paternity leave, but the new addition comes at a busy time for the OpenAI leader. The artificial intelligence company is in the middle of a significant transition from a nonprofit entity, having announced plans in December to transfer control of daily operations to its for-profit subsidiary. The move has attracted legal challenges from OpenAI's competitor, Elon Musk.Representatives for OpenAI declined to comment on the birth when reached by Business Insider.In a January 6 episode of the Re:Thinking podcast hosted by Adam Grant, Altman said he was expecting a child, adding that children in the future will never know a world without AI that's smarter than they are."And that'll be natural," Altman told Grant. "And, of course, it's smarter than us. Of course, it can do things we can't, but also who really cares? I think it's only weird for us in this one transition time."The birth announcement quickly made waves through the tech world, with Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella sending well wishes in a response on X, writing: "My heartfelt congratulations, @sama! Parenthood is one of life's most profound and rewarding experiences. Wishing you and your family the very best."Altman and Mulherin married in January 2024 in an intimate ceremony. The pair, who live together in San Francisco, have led a relatively private relationship, making one of their first public appearances in 2023 when the OpenAI CEO brought Mulherin to a White House dinner.In a September 2023 interview with New York Magazine, Altman said that the pair planned to have kids soon.

PlayStation has to stop keeping its best games a secret Readers FeatureGameCentralPublished February 23, 2025 1:00am Returnal very good, but not very well known (Sony Interactive Entertainment)A reader is frustrated that some of the most critically acclaimed games on PS4 and PS5 are not properly marketed by Sony and many fans have never heard of them.I was surprised to find that the State Of Play from the other week was fairly unpopular with a lot of PlayStation fans. I only realised afterwards that Sony only really announced one new game, but since that was Saros, the spiritual sequel to Returnal, I was more than happy with the showcase. In fact, I was ecstatic, even though they didnt show any gameplay.It later dawned on me that it wasnt just the lack of gameplay that had put people off, but the fact that the majority didnt even know what Returnal was. In my opinion and I know GC agree with this its the best exclusive on PlayStation 5 and one of the absolute best games of the last decade. But it wasnt a very big hit and Sony didnt advertise it very well.It won the BAFTA game of the year, and five other awards, when it came out and yet Im genuinely surprised Sony allowed Housemarque to make a follow-up (with an even weirder and more difficult to spell name). Then I thought about it some more and realised that theyre always like this with games that arent one of their big franchises.The obvious recent example is Astro Bot, which we know they dont think of as a big franchise, because the Sony boss said there were no major franchises sequels coming out last year because apparently Astro Bot doesnt count. It won almost every game of the year award going and yet all that led to is a vague promise from Sony to make more family games.And then of course weve got Bloodborne, the best exclusive on the PlayStation 4 and another contender for best game of the 21st century, and apparently Sony has forgotten they published it. Not even a PlayStation 5 patch, even while every other game gets one and Bloodborne wouldve have especially benefited from it, given its technical issues.Speaking of FromSoftware, there was also Demons Souls, which Sony did such a bad job of promoting that From refused to let them publish Dark Souls. Im not even impressed by the effort they made with things like LittleBigPlanet or Ape Escape, which they pretend are classic PlayStation franchises but which most normal gamers have never heard of. And dont get me started about Puppeteer!Sony puts out some fantastic, best of the best, games but they never really seem to know how to sell most of them, if theyre not straightforward story or action games. They gave Shadow Of The Colossus a remake, for example, but I dont feel they marketed either the original or the new version enough, to the point where normal people have never heard of them.I know my COD and FIFA playing cousin has heard of The Last Of Us and God Of War, even if Im not sure if hes really played them (he says he has), but writing this I asked him about these other games Ive mentioned and he didnt know what any of them are. Well, he recognised Astro Bot but knew nothing about the game or when it had come out.I feel Nintendo does a lot better job with this sort of thing than Sony, pushing even relatively minor games in order to give them the best chance possible. Worse than that I always get the feeling that Sonys marketing teams are faintly embarrassed by some of their more imaginative and unusual games. That would almost be fair enough, but this problem has been going on for decades at this point.More TrendingSony has published some of the best games of the last several years and yet none of them have been big sellers and none of them are things that theyve really tried to promote. Maybe they just see them as prestige products, only made to earn awards, but they can be so much more. These are some of the best games ever made and yet theyre completely flying under a lot of peoples radar.By reader Lofty What does Sony have against Bloodborne?

ADSB ANDERSSON BELL is a fashion brand with a distinct personality and exceptional sensibility. The design approach adopted a modern grotesque-inspired concept. Structurally, a grid pattern and minimalist box-shaped counters were incorporated, while vibrantly patterned wood and fabric finishes were employed to highlight the brand's identity. As a brand with strong design individuality, it was anticipated that an equally unique store atmosphere would create a synergistic effect.Save this picture!Save this picture!Save this picture!Save this picture!The patterns were created by applying gradient colors to wooden plywood, and rivet details typically used in garment production were embedded throughout. One entire side of the store was decorated with mirrors to emphasize the continuity of the patterns. The reflections from the diagonally placed floor surfaces showcased a greater diversity of patterns, aligning seamlessly with the bold character of the brand. This continuity not only gave the impression of a more spacious store but also left a striking and memorable impression.Save this picture!Save this picture!On the opposite side, rough textures were paired with over 3-meter-long perforated metal rods, through which wires were installed to create a layered effect. Knitting techniques were applied over these wires, resulting in a more deconstructed visual presentation. Two screens of varying proportions were layered to display fashion show footage and promotional videos, offering an engaging visual element for visitors. These bold design choices aimed to simultaneously express the brand's identity and provide visitors with a powerful and novel experience.Save this picture!Project gallerySee allShow lessProject locationAddress:Pangyo, South KoreaLocation to be used only as a reference.
