Use this long weekend to rest, relax, and save. There are some great #MemorialDaySales on the gear WIRED reviewers recommend. If you buy something using the link below, we may earn a commission. This helps support our journalism. wired.trib.al/vAGtei1 1/6
The GoPro Hero 10 Black is our favorite action camera. Paying $400 for it alone is a good deal that saves you about $50, but this bundle adds even more value: It includes a spare battery and a charger. 📸: GoPro wired.trib.al/BpONPuJ 2/6 Image
This video game is a holdover from last week that's worth mentioning again. Folks feel very strongly about Elden Ring (PS4/5) for $50 ($10 off). You either love it or hate it This is the first discount we've tracked for the popular title. wired.trib.al/KwwxJWA 📸: Amazon 3/6 Image
One of the best PlayStation 5 features has nothing to do with the console itself. We really like the Sony PS5 DualSense Wireless Controller for $59 ($16 off). WIRED reviewers say there's no third-party alternative that packs the same punch. 📸: Sony 4/6 wired.trib.al/mLK2IYB Image
This giant, squishy Moon Pod Beanbag for $299 ($100 off) is sort of ridiculous…as is its price tag. It's also more comfortable than my sofa. The softcover and dense filling make you feel like you're floating on the moon. 📸: Moon Pod 5/6 wired.trib.al/ANmkCvi Image
Don't forget to check back, as we'll be updating this story throughout the weekend. #MemorialDaySales wired.trib.al/vAGtei1 6/6
This LG C1 OLED 55-Inch 4K TV for $1,097 ($201 off)
made our list of the best TVs as a top pick for gamers, not just because of the wonderfully rich blacks that OLED panels provide, but also due to its 120-Hz refresh rate support. 📸: LG wired.trib.al/iaGJAYK Image
It's been a while since the Biolite FirePit+ for $225 ($75 off) has been priced at this low price. We liked the original version; this newer model can be used as a heating source, a phone charger, and a snazzy portable grill. 📸: Biolite wired.trib.al/bpLQz0X Image
Thermapen One Meat Thermometer for $84 ($21 off) is one of the best grilling accessories. It'll spit out accurate temperatures in less than a second. Enter code SHAREBBQ to see the discount at checkout. 📸: Thermoworks wired.trib.al/Qhjrdum Image
Our WIRED reviews editor is a huge fan of the Rumpl Blanket for $74 ($25 off). The outdoor-friendly blankets are durable, warm, packable, and available in several eye-catching designs. 📸:Rumpl wired.trib.al/kOPsYQk Image
We are updating our #MemorialDaySales story throughout the weekend. Check here for even more deals. wired.trib.al/vAGtei1
The discount on this Allform 3-Seat Sofa for $1,895 ($474 off) isn't quite as good as what we saw on Cyber Monday last year, but it's the best deal we have tracked since then. Allform makes some of the best couches you can buy in a box. 📸:Allform wired.trib.al/HJsweXP Image
We heartily recommend these Jins Prescription Sunglasses for 30% off, particularly for folks who need a prescription. They look way cooler than your typical Rx frames, and they're also durable, even after years of wear. Use Code 22MEMORIAL30 📸: Jins wired.trib.al/xjo0s4E Image
Check out our updated #MemorialDaySales story throughout the weekend for the latest and best deals going. It's a great way to save money and support our journalism by shopping through the links provided. wired.trib.al/3xxmMvn

In an industry once known for cushy perks, some founders are now asking staff to commit to a 72-hour weekly schedule. You’re either in or you’re out. wired.com/story/silicon-…
Would you like to work nearly double the standard 40-hour week? It’s a question that many startups in the US are asking prospective employees—and to get the job, the answer needs to be an unequivocal yes. wired.com/story/silicon-…
These companies are embracing an intense schedule, first popularized in mainland China, known as “996,” or 9 am to 9 pm, six days a week. That’s a 72-hour work week, in case you’re doing the math. wired.com/story/silicon-…

Generative AI has put data centers under the spotlight, and surging electricity needs could increase risk of fires. wired.com/story/x-data-c…
A recent, hours-long fire at a data center used by Elon Musk’s X may have begun after an electrical or mechanical issue in a power system, according to an official fire investigation. wired.com/story/x-data-c…
Data center giant Digital Realty operates the 13-acre site, and multiple people familiar with the matter previously told WIRED that the Musk-run social platform X has servers there. wired.com/story/x-data-c…

NEW: Metadata from the “raw” Epstein prison video shows approximately 2 minutes and 53 seconds were removed from one of two stitched-together clips. The cut starts right at the “missing minute.”
wired.com/story/the-fbis…
The nearly three-minute discrepancy may be related to the widely reported one-minute gap—between 11:58:58 pm and 12:00:00 am—that attorney general Pam Bondi has attributed to a nightly system reset.
wired.com/story/the-fbis…Image
This comes after WIRED reported that the video had been stitched together in Adobe Premiere Pro from two video files, contradicting the Justice Department’s claim that it was “raw” footage.

It’s unclear what the minutes cut from the first clip showed.

BREAKING: Metadata shows the FBI’s ‘raw’ Jeffrey Epstein prison video was likely modified. wired.com/story/metadata…
Metadata embedded in the video and analyzed by WIRED and independent video forensics experts shows that rather than being a direct export from the prison’s surveillance system, the footage was modified, likely using a Adobe Premiere Pro. wired.com/story/metadata…
Experts caution that it’s unclear what exactly was edited, and that the metadata does not prove deceptive manipulation. wired.com/story/metadata…

Records of hundreds of emergency calls from ICE detention centers obtained by WIRED—including audio recordings—show a system inundated by life-threatening incidents, delayed treatment, and overcrowding. wired.com/story/ice-dete…
Content warning:

On March 16, a woman identifying herself as a detainee at the Stewart Detention Center in Georgia, called 911. Communication was strained: The dispatcher spoke no Spanish.

"I need help,” the woman said. "I need … ayuda."
wired.com/story/ice-dete…
Since Jan., 10 facilities have collectively placed nearly 400 EMS calls.

- Nearly 50 involved potential cardiac episodes
- 26 referenced seizures
- 17 involved head injuries
- 7 described suicide attempts/self-harm

That's what has been recorded.

NEW: The alleged shooter is a 57-year-old white male; according to his ministry's website, he “sought out militant Islamists in order to share the gospel and tell them that violence wasn't the answer.”
wired.com/story/shooting…
UPDATE: In a 2023 sermon reviewed by WIRED and delivered by the alleged shooter in the Democratic Republic of Congo, he preached against abortion and called for different Christian churches to become “one.” wired.com/story/shooting…
In another sermon in Matadi that year, Boelter railed against the LGBTQ community. “They're confused,” he said. “The enemy has gotten so far into their mind and their soul.”
