After nearly a decade of delays, Tesla has finally pulled the wraps off its new Roadster, and the specs are genuinely hard to believe. The electric supercar reportedly hits two hundred thirty miles per hour, generates downforce through a fan system, and uses cold-gas thruster technology to literally jump and flip in the air. Whether it ever reaches production is another question entirely.
Meanwhile, the open source world gathered at Open Source Summit Europe, where the conversation centered less on flashy announcements and more on the unglamorous work of digital sovereignty. Organizers and developers pushed past the AI noise to focus on practical frameworks for keeping critical software infrastructure independent, particularly as geopolitical pressures mount around who controls foundational technology.
And in Japan, Nintendo has dropped a new ad for the Ocarina of Time remake, offering the first real look at Dark Link in action. The clip opens with Ganondorf at his oversized piano and moves through some of the game's most iconic enemies, signaling that this remake is leaning into the darker textures that made the original a landmark.
Those are the stories driving the conversation today. Keep surfing. Tech Beat out.
