Slovenian Pavilion Highlights the Relationship Between Architect, Craftsman, and Architecture at the Venice Architecture Biennale 2025Save this picture!Master Builders. Image © Klemen Ilovar, 2025The Slovenian Pavilion at the 19th International Architecture Exhibition – La Biennale di Venezia presents Master Builders, a project curated by Ana Kosi and Ognen Arsov and organized by the Museum of Architecture and Design (MAO). The project addresses the evolution of construction technology, encompassing robotics, prefabrication, artificial intelligence, 3D printing, and other emerging tools, while drawing attention to a notable paradox within this technological shift, and also emphasizing that the quality of the built environment continues to rely heavily on the tacit knowledge of skilled craftsmen. By constructing a series of totems, the project examines the collaborative dynamics between architect and craftsman, revealing how this relationship shapes the material realization of architecture.The Slovenian Pavilion is structured around three components: a spatial installation in the Arsenale in Venice; a catalogue that explores the relationship between the architect and the master builder across historical and contemporary contexts; and an interdisciplinary symposium on the production of contemporary architecture in Slovenia, scheduled to take place in November at the Museum of Architecture and Design in Ljubljana. Save this picture!In response to this year's Biennale theme Intelligens. Natural. Artificial. Collective., the Slovenian Pavilion foregrounds the know-how, techniques, and skills of craftsmen as an essential and irreplaceable component of architectural production. By repositioning the role of construction workers within the architectural process, the project redirects focus from the finished architectural object to the methods and practices of contemporary construction on site. In doing so, it raises the question of whether this shift in perspective can lead to a renewed understanding of contemporary architecture.

For architecture to be well-constructed, we need a good team of architects and designers, a good investor, a contract with a good construction company, an experienced on-site supervisor, political backing, a cycle of favorable construction material prices, and favorable financing terms. This general formula is missing a key component, and one that is frequently overlooked when it comes to sharing the credit for well-built architecture – the skilled craftsmen who build structures with their particular know-how, goodwill, and well-trained hands. - Ognen Arsov, curator and architect Save this picture!Save this picture!Located in the Arsenale, the Slovenian Pavilion features four totems representing a family of master craftsmen from the construction site, accompanied by a large-format documentary video that captures the process of their making. Constructed as physical manifestos of craftsmanship, the totems embody the techniques and knowledge of contemporary building practices in Slovenia. Developed through an experimental collaboration between architects and craftsmen, the project investigates the dynamic relationship between design and construction. Each totem was designed using standard architectural planning tools and built on a construction site in Kranj, 35 kilometers north of Ljubljana, based on detailed plans, bills of quantities, and technical documentation, with ongoing dialogue between the designers and builders. The installation responds to the spatial context of the Arsenale, establishing an interplay between the totems while making visible the often-overlooked skills that underpin architectural production. Beyond representing individual craftspeople, the totems function as collective signifiers of mastery, translating the abstract into the tangible and inviting reflection on the role of craftsmanship within the broader architectural discourse.Save this picture!Save this picture!The 19th International Architecture Exhibition – La Biennale di Venezia opened to visitors on May 10 and will remain on view until November 23, 2025, hosting a total of 65 National Pavilions.

A plane flies off into the sunset, John Williams’ unforgettable theme blares out of the speakers, and a tear streams down my face. When I finished playing Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, I felt like I did back in 1989 when Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade came to theaters. I’d just seen an incredible Indiana Jones story. One I’d never forget. Except, this time, I was Indy. When Bethesda and Lucasfilm first announced they were making an Indiana Jones video game in 2021, I was incredibly excited. Even though I’ve been a massive Indy fan for as long as I can remember, I’d never played an Indy video game. Or, at least, never played an Indy game I felt any connection to. I hoped this was it, but since I don’t have an Xbox or PC, I was forced to wait five more months than everyone else. When Great Circle first released, io9 editor James Whitbrook played the game and found it very frustrating. His headline reading “Every Moment You’re Playing Indiana Jones and the Great Circle Feels Like Torture” was more than concerning. It was terrifying. Was this Crystal Skull all over again? So, when Great Circle was finally announced for PlayStation 5, while I still knew I would play it, I tempered expectations drastically. Which, in the end, was probably a good thing. Using a map in Indiana Jones and the Great Circle – Bethesda/MachineGames One of James’ biggest complaints was about the controls and combat. And pretty early on, I knew I agreed with him about that. Fist fighting just wasn’t particularly fun, and the controls never really felt that comfortable. It was button-mashing, for the most part. I also was disappointed to figure out that pulling your gun, or stealing one from a Nazi, was an even worse idea because then a bunch of other Nazis come after you and you’re dead. Then I realized something. If I were an adventuring archaeologist running around Europe in the 1930s, I wouldn’t want to fight. In fact, I’d do everything to avoid that. I’d want to survive. I’d sneak around, be quiet and avoid trouble. And so, unless absolutely necessary, that became how I played Great Circle. I used logic. I was sneaky. I was Indiana Jones. That’s not to say I didn’t punch more than a few Nazis or even shoot a few if need be, it just was never the first option if I could avoid it. And I don’t even like stealth games that much, but viewing the mechanic through the lens of Indiana Jones‘ down-to-earth reputation changed my entire mindset. I was the one deciding how Indiana Jones was going to solve this mystery and things only got more exciting and interesting from there.  It even made me like the first-person viewpoint more than I had expected. The POV upped the immersion, plus you get to pull back and see Indy more often than you’d expect. © Bethesda/MachineGames But really, what works the most about Indiana Jones and the Great Circle is the story. A story that, at every turn, was seemingly crafted to be perfectly in line with the first three Indy films. Without spoiling anything, Indiana Jones and the Great Circle sees Indy traverse the globe attempting to acquire specific stones that will grant a magical power. And, of course, he’s doing it in competition with some particularly brutal Nazis. Having Great Circle in the title also doesn’t give away what the Macguffin is like, unlike “The Lost Ark,” “Crystal Skull,” and “Dial of Destiny” do. It feels more like “Last Crusade” in that way, but with elements of Raiders and Temple of Doom too. Several sections of the game let you go anywhere you’d like, exploring, fighting, whatever. Others are more limited but provide even greater action. When I tell you there are some action set pieces in this game that the movies could never, ever match, I mean it. But whether you’re solving puzzles to enter a temple, flying a plane, or climbing up a wall with your whip, the game simply understands Indiana Jones. Indy will regularly comment about historical connections. He’s infinitely curious and filled with wonder. You use notes and images to solve mysteries and document your findings. You wear disguises, make ample use of the whip, and always make sure to get your hat back. Indy even has a new female sidekick, Gina, who often feels like real competition for Marion Ravenwood. Then there is the full reveal of the Macguffin, which feels like it comes in too late but is wholly satisfying anyway. That culminates in a truly epic finale that, as you play it, you constantly wish you could see on the big screen. I realized later that if Indiana Jones and the Great Circle was a movie, it would easily be the third best Indiana Jones movie: Raiders, Last Crusade, then this. And I love Temple of Doom, but it’s great because it’s different. This one is not different from the other two, which is part of what makes it so special. Exploring in Indiana Jones and the Great Circle – Bethesda/Machine Games Best of all, it’s done with the Indiana Jones you know and love. As wonderful as Harrison Ford was in Dial of Destiny, and as hard as James Mangold tried to recapture that magic, it was simply not the same as the original trilogy. Dial explored a new aspect of Indy. This is classic, younger Indy. Our favorite Indy. Which is possible both because this is a video game and because of Troy Baker. Seriously, this game is not possible without Troy Baker. His voice work as Indiana Jones is so good, it should be studied by voice actors forever. Never for a second do you not hear Harrison Ford coming out of your game. It’s perfect and only helps the total immersion and cohesion of the story. Now, do I wish it were a little longer? Yes. Are there minor problems here and there? Also yes. But for the most part, Indiana Jones and the Great Circle was not just worth the wait for this Indy fan, it was beyond my wildest expectations. It made me break out a few of my action figures. Put on the movies while I worked. And, once again, rekindle my eternal love for Indiana Jones. I want to play it again right now, or maybe watch someone else play it, almost like it’s the next great Indy movie. Indiana Jones and the Great Circle is available on PlayStation 5, PC, and XBox X/S.

GTA 6 delay is to give Rockstar ‘no limitations’ as Take-Two commits to new date Adam Starkey Published May 16, 2025 10:59am Updated May 16, 2025 10:59am GTA 6 looks set to dominate 2026 (Take-Two Interactive) Take-Two Interactive has tried to explain the delay of GTA 6, as it implies a Switch 2 port is out of the question. While the delay of GTA 6 to May 26 next year wasn’t exactly surprising, if you’re familiar with Rockstar’s history, it has still had a sizeable impact on the industry at large. According to reports, the announcement has sparked panic at rival publishers, as they try to avoid the game’s release date, but also worry about another potential delay beyond May 2026. Rockstar’s parent company, Take-Two, has now commented on the prospect of that happening, as it attempts to provide some reassurance. Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick addressed the game’s delay in an interview with IGN, where it was described as a necessary move to allow GTA 6 to fulfil its ‘creative vision with no limitations’. ‘As we get closer to completion of a title that’s seeking perfection, the needs or lack thereof, for continued polish become clear,’ Zelnick said. ‘In this case there was an opportunity with a small amount of incremental time, we thought, to make sure Rockstar Games achieves its creative vision with no limitations. And I supported of course that approach.’ Earlier this month, Bloomberg’s Jason Schreier claimed the delay to next year ‘seemed inevitable’, due to a mix of ‘too much work, not enough time, and what appears to be a real desire from management to avoid brutal crunch’. Will there be another delay? (Rockstar Games) As for whether Zelnick is confident GTA 6 will hit this new release date, he added: ‘I think historically when we set a specific date, generally speaking, we’ve been very good about reaching it.’ While this comment suggests GTA 6 will not be pushed back again, Zelnick doesn’t rule it out entirely. Rockstar is no stranger to delaying games multiple times either, as seen with Red Dead Redemption 2, so there’s still a chance this could happen with GTA 6. There’s also the fact that Zelnick repeatedly insisted that GTA 6 wasn’t going to be delayed at all… until it was. When it comes to things like that, his primary concern is placating investors, so his comments should be taken with a pinch of salt. Zelnick further addressed the game’s delay during Take-Two’s Q4 2025 earnings call, where he confirmed that GTA 6 began development ‘in earnest’ in 2020. ‘Rockstar expects to release GTA 6 on May 26, 2026, which is in our fiscal year 2027,’ Zelnick said. ‘I believe affording Rockstar additional time for such a groundbreaking project is a worthy investment. ‘The ambition and complexity of GTA 6 is greater than any previous Rockstar title, and the team is poised to release another astonishing entertainment experience that will exceed players’ expectations.’ In a Q&A with investors, Zelnick was asked about the publisher’s support of the Nintendo Switch 2, where he outlined how the company will bring titles to the console on a ‘case-by-case basis’. ‘We’re launching four titles with Nintendo Switch 2 [Civilization 7, Borderlands 4, NBA 2K26, and WWE 2K25], and that’s I think a bigger array of releases than we’ve ever offered before with a new Nintendo platform,’ Zelnick said. Historically, being a third party in the Nintendo business has been a bit challenging. I think Nintendo has been very forthcoming in addressing that. And we’re stepping up too, because we have great optimism for the platform. More Trending ‘In terms of what we would bring to any platform, we address it on a case-by-case basis, we obviously want to be where the consumers are. But we would not necessarily bring every title to every platform. There are also great catalogue opportunities as well.’ While the technical requirements of GTA 6 (based on the trailers, at least) seem to rule out any potential Switch 2 port, the last sentence suggests we could see past games in the series on the console – maybe even the rumoured remaster of GTA 4. Elsewhere in the earnings report, Take-Two announced GTA 5 has sold over 215 million copies, a five million increase from February this year. Meanwhile, Red Dead Redemption 2 sold three million copies within the past three months, bringing its lifetime sales to 74 million. Considering GTA 5 came out over a decade ago in 2013, it’s astonishing that it’s still selling millions of copies all these years later. Coupled with Take-Two’s strong release slate for the rest of this year, it’s perhaps understandable why Take-Two is in no rush to get GTA 6 out the door. A remaster of GTA 4 is rumoured to be in the works (Rockstar) Email gamecentral@metro.co.uk, leave a comment below, follow us on Twitter, and sign-up to our newsletter.

What just happened? TP-Link, the most popular router brand in the US, could be banned in the country. The ongoing saga over the firm's alleged links to China and anti-competitive behavior has led Republican lawmakers to urge the Commerce Department to ban sales of the company's products. The seventeen senators and representatives wrote a letter to Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick this week to support the ongoing investigations into TP-Link. The company is being investigated by the Commerce, Defense, and Justice Departments over whether its China ties pose a security threat and whether the firm engaged in predatory pricing to undercut competitors and dominate the US market. The group essentially claims that TP-Link's cheap prices have helped it become the number one router brand in the US, thereby allowing the Chinese government to launch cyberattacks and surveillance programs against the United States using the devices. The letter also urges Lutnick to prohibit further sales of TP-Link networking products in the United States. The group goes on to accuse TP-Link of having a close association with the Chinese Communist Party, using predatory pricing to eliminate "trusted" US alternatives, and embedding foreign surveillance and destructive capabilities into US networks, all of which make it a "clear and present danger." The letter states that Chinese state actors have exploited TP-Link small and home office (SOHO) networking devices to wage cyberwarfare against the United States. It's also claimed that TP-Link is the only router company that refuses to engage in industry efforts to remediate Chinese state-sponsored bots. // Related Stories "Each day we fail to act, the CCP wins while American competitors suffer, and American security remains at risk," wrote the lawmakers. In a statement responding to the letter, TP-Link told PCMag, "The allegations are categorically false, and we look forward to setting the record straight about our company." "To be clear, TP-Link is not a state-sponsored company, has no 'deep ties' to, and is completely independent from, the Chinese Communist Party." Nine of sixteen best-selling routers on Amazon are TP-Link brands, including the top three models. It's estimated that 60-65% of homes and small businesses in the US use the routers, whose cheap prices help make them so popular. In October 2024, Microsoft exposed "CovertNetwork-1658," a Chinese-run botnet siphoning credentials from Azure since August 2023 via password-spray attacks. The network marshalled 16,000 hijacked SOHO routers, cameras and other IoT nodes – chiefly TP-Link models. The company's routers have a history of vulnerabilities: a CVSS-10 flaw hit the Archer C5400X in May 2024, and 2023 reports tied Chinese state actors to custom malware installed on TP-Link routers. The latter incident arrived soon after the US government said Mirai Botnet operators were using TP-Link routers for DDoS attacks. TP-Link, founded in 1996 by brothers Zhao Jianjun and Zhao Jiaxing, established its US arm in 2008 to handle marketing and support in North America, though ownership and operations remained tied to its Shenzhen-based parent. In 2024, TP-Link USA merged with the company's non-Chinese operations to form TP-Link Systems Inc., headquartered in Irvine, California – a move intended to create an "organizational separation," with distinct ownership, governance, R&D, and supply chains on each side.

Despite not wanting to be inundated by tons of emails, it’s quite another thing to have emails you need to read or keep disappear suddenly. It’s important to know why your emails are disappearing as much as it is important to figure out how to fix it. Mary Ann from Southport, North Carolina, had this question for us:"Help - my emails stored in individual email folders disappear on my iPhone 13 Pro Mail app. Why? Is there a fix so this won’t happen again?"Though we’ve all wished that our inboxes would magically get read and cleaned up, we certainly don’t want emails disappearing for no particular reason and without our knowledge. Usually, when something unexpected happens on our devices, it isn’t just a one-person issue. That’s why we thought it was important to investigate why your emails are disappearing and how to fix it, Mary Ann.If you're experiencing disappearing emails on an Android device, don't worry, we also cover solutions for Android users further down in this article. A woman using her iPhone. 1. Disappearing emails? Start here to solve the mysteryIf your emails disappear from your iPhone like they did for Mary Ann, there are several reasons this could happen. But before you troubleshoot the many different potential culprits, the easiest one to start with is to restart your iPhone. Even though it may seem too easy, sometimes restarting your iPhone can restore your missing emails. To restart your iPhone for iPhone X or later: DON'T FALL FOR THAT SNEAKY ICLOUD STORAGE ALERT IN YOUR INBOX Apple Support photo of restarting iPhone X or later. (Apple)While holding the iPhone with the screen facing toward you, press the volume up or down button on the left side of your phone and at the same time, press the power button on the right side.When the power-off slider shows up on your screen, slide it across the screen to the off position.Once your phone turns off (it’ll be just a blank black screen), leave it off for 10 seconds.Turn your phone back on by pressing and holding the side button (on the right side of your iPhone) until you see the Apple logo. Once you see the logo, release the button.Go check to see if that resolved your mail issues.If that doesn’t resolve the issue, try the steps below.2.  It could be a problem with your mail settingsWhile the iPhone usually keeps the mail setup process pretty simple, sometimes how we step up can cause problems down the road. Or even if we did set it up correctly, it just needs to be reset to get it working properly-the solution.

There is a conflict between IMAP and POP3 protocolsDesktop mail applications usually use POP3, while most smartphones use IMAP protocol, which can cause conflict and mail disappearance. The solution to fix this problem. You’ll need to see if your email is set up on any other devices using POP3. If possible, change all email account setups to IMAP on other devices. For example, on Mail on an iMac:On your iMac or MacBook (Pro), open the ‘Mail’ application, usually found in the dock on the bottom or right or left side of your desktop screen.Under ‘Mail’ on the menu bar on the top left of your screen, select ‘Accounts.’Select the specific account you want to check.

System errorIf none of these resolve your disappearing emails, it may be a system error that can occur on any device. You can also contact Apple Support for further support if nothing seems to work.  You can reset your device to start fresh to see if that will resolve the disappearing email problem. Check out How to factory reset my iPhone for step-by-step instructions on how to reset your device.What to do if your emails disappear on AndroidWhile this article focuses on iPhone fixes, Android users can face similar issues with disappearing emails. Here's a brief guide tailored for Android devices:Settings may vary depending on your Android phone’s manufacturer.1. Check all folders and search for missing emailsSometimes emails are accidentally archived, deleted, or marked as spam. Use the search function in your email app and check the Spam, Trash, and Archive folders to locate missing messages.For Gmail, also check the Social, Promotions and Updates tabs, as emails can be automatically sorted there.2. Review email sync settingsOpen your email app's settings, go to your account settings, and check the "Sync period." Set it to "All time" to ensure older emails are not hidden.Make sure the sync function is enabled so your device is regularly updating with the mail server.3. Check email protocol: POP3 vs. IMAPIf your account is set up as POP3, emails may be downloaded to one device and removed from the server, causing them to disappear from other devices. IMAP keeps emails synced across all devices.If using POP3, look for a setting like "Leave messages on server" and make sure it is enabled.Switching to IMAP is recommended for most users to avoid these issues.4. Inspect email filters and rulesFilters or rules may automatically move emails to specific folders or delete them. Review your filter settings in your email app or webmail interface.5. Restart and re-add your accountLog out of your email account, restart your device, and log back in. If issues persist, remove the email account from your device and add it again.6. Network and app issuesEnsure your device has a stable internet connection. Sometimes sync issues are caused by temporary network problems.If problems continue, try updating your email app or reinstalling it.By following these steps, most Android users can resolve the issue of disappearing emails and keep their inboxes under control.Kurt’s key takeawaysIt is very disconcerting when emails start disappearing with no rhyme or reason from your phone. Not only does it keep you from getting information and responding in a timely manner, but it can also start causing consistent problems in your professional and personal life. Thankfully, there are several ways to troubleshoot this problem, from the most basic (restarting your phone) option to the most intense (resetting your entire device).CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APPHave your emails ever disappeared from your phone?

Top 50 Club Steam now lets you check out each month's top 50 best-selling games, and scroll all the way back to Half-Life 2's release if you want to feel mega old Valve has given Steam's monthly game charts a big refresh, for those of us who really want to study the most popular games on the platform. Image credit: Valve News by Sherif Saed Contributing Editor Published on May 16, 2025 Steam’s charts continue to be one of the best sources of information across the entire industry when it comes to sales, player activity and a lot more. Steam has always had the big Top Sellers chart, which lists the platform's top-grossing games, and tracks their movements within it each day. You could also see each month’s top-selling games, but thanks to a new update, the monthly lists are a lot more detailed and relevant. To see this content please enable targeting cookies. The big Top Sellers page on Steam has the current chart, weekly, as well as monthly. Valve has refreshed the monthly charts to include 50 games, sorted by revenue. All sales charts across Steam are based on game revenue, which is why free-to-play games often occupy the top spots. The refresh now allows you browse every month from April 2025, all the way back to November 2004 - when Half-Life 2 was initially released. The monthly reports are nicer to look at, too, starting off with a trailer for every game in question. The list can even include pieces of DLC, assuming they’re popular enough to rank among the top 50 games. The new layout will make that clear as you browse. For even more accurate details, you can filter by genre, theme, style, supported feature, or tag. Valve explained that the data is based on the first two weeks of revenue for each title released during that month. Each month is split into three tiers: gold (12 games), silver (next 12), and bronze (all the rest). One of the big advantages of this refresh is that reports will be now be automatically compiled, meaning that you’ll find the previous month’s report exactly 14 days into the next one. The only problem is that, if a game is not available in your region, you won’t be able to see it on the list, even if it’s included in the top 50. Click the link above to see the new layout for yourself, or travel back in time to any month you want. In other Steam news, Valve recently released an official comment regarding an alleged data breach of one of its cloud partners, and it appears there’s no cause for alarm.

Here's what Switch 2's free upgrades for Link's Awakening, Pokémon, Mario, and more will do Nintendo shares specifics. Image credit: Nintendo News by Matt Wales News Reporter Published on May 16, 2025 Switch 2 is now less than three weeks away from release, which means Nintendo is feverishly filling in the few remaining blanks ahead of the console's arrival. And that finally includes specific details on what each of its previously announced free Switch 2 upgrades for the likes of Link's Awakening, Pokémon, Mario, Arms, and more will do on launch day. Nintendo announced two different types of Switch 2 upgrades for previously released Switch games as part of its big April news blowout: paid upgrades promising substantial new features or content alongside presentational enhancements, plus free upgrades specifically focused on the likes of enhanced performance and GameShare support. At the time, Nintendo announced 12 original Switch titles - including Arms, Super Mario Odyssey, and Pokémon Scarlet - would be receiving free upgrades on its new console, but stopped short of providing specific details. That's all changed thanks to an update on its website, so here's everything we now know owners of the original Switch editions can expect when playing the games on Switch 2 starting 5th June: Digital Foundry breaks down Switch 2's confirmed specifications.Watch on YouTube Arms Visuals: Optimised for Switch 2's display and high-resolution TVs for improved image quality; optimised frame rate for smoother movements, even with 3 or more players; HDR support Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker Visuals: Optimised for Switch 2's display and high-resolution TVs for improved image quality; HDR support GameShare support: Two people can play all the courses, sharing locally or online via GameChat and a Switch Online membership Super Mario Odyssey Visuals: Optimised for Switch 2's display and high-resolution TVs for improved image quality; HDR support GameShare support: Two people can play together (one player controlling Mario and the other controlling Cappy), sharing locally or online via GameChat and a Switch Online membership Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury Visuals: Optimised for Switch 2's display and high-resolution TVs for improved image quality; optimised frame rate for smoother movement (including Bowser's Fury); HDR support (Bowser’s Fury only) GameShare support: Up to four people can play Super Mario 3D World, sharing locally or online via GameChat and a Switch Online membership; two people can play Bowser's Fury together (one player controlling Mario and the other controlling Bowser Jr), sharing locally or online via GameChat and a Switch Online membership Clubhouse Games: 51 Worldwide Classics GameShare support: Up to four people can play 34 games, sharing locally or online via GameChat and a Switch Online membership The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening Visuals: Optimised for Switch 2's display and high-resolution TVs for improved image quality; HDR support The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom Visuals: Optimised for Switch 2's display and high-resolution TVs for improved image quality; HDR support Game Builder Garage Visuals: Optimised for Switch 2's display and high-resolution TVs for improved image quality Supports Joy-Con 2 mouse controls New Super Mario Bros.
