Watch out: Google Drive seems to be wiping files

Some users have reported the loss of large chunks of data

Google Drive has been acting weirdly, apparently deleting the data of some of its users.

Folks posting on Google Support forums in recent days have been saying how files have been suddenly disappearing, with no apparent way to get them back. A number of users have explained how their Google Drive has shed data added after May 2023, while others said the loss goes back a couple of years.

Google has acknowledged the issue and says it seems to be linked to the Drive desktop app. It also tells users to avoid certain actions with Drive until it's resolved the issue. The extent of the problem isn't clear, but it shows that if Google Drive is the only place where you keep some of your files, then it's wise to always back them up ...

U-Turn Orbit Special review: Revamped and out of this world

'The Orbit Special's diversity and $549 starting price make it a good choice for beginners'

U-Turn Audio has been making affordable Orbit turntables since 2012.

Over the following decade, the Orbit earned a reputation for being a no-nonsense record player that looks good, is simple to operate, and is made with good components — you could even mix and match them to suit your needs and budget, which made the line appealing to a wide range of vinyl enthusiasts.

So, when U-Turn launched its 2nd-gen Orbit lineup last fall — the first major upgrade in the company’s history — I was excited to get my hands on one.

The entire Orbit range, which includes the Orbit Basic, Plus, and Special, has been revamped. So let's take a look at the Special ...

How to watch Tesla's Cybertruck delivery event

The electric pickup was unveiled in 2019, so the event is a long time coming

Tesla is about to deliver the Cybertruck to its first customers.

The unique-looking electric pickup will be presented to the first owners at a special event at Tesla’s Cybertruck Gigafactory in Austin, Texas, on Thursday, November 30. Tesla CEO Elon Musk is likely to lead the proceedings.

In a message on social media this week, Tesla said the event will start at 2 p.m. CT (3 p.m. ET and noon PT).

The vehicle isn’t expected to go into mass production for a couple of years, so only a small number of the Cybertrucks are expected to be presented to owners at Thursday's event.

Tesla will live-stream the presentation but has yet to reveal where. Likely venues for the broadcast include Tesla’s website, its YouTube channel, and also the Cybertruck's X (formerly Twitter) account ...
