The 2023 editions of the Dell XPS 15 and Dell XPS 17 will be available for purchase on March 2nd, Dell has announced. The laptops are identical to their 2022 predecessors, but they’ve been bumped up to 13th Gen Intel chips and Nvidia GeForce RTX 4000 discrete graphics.

Both devices will offer Core i5, Core i7, and Core i9 H-series options. The XPS 15 can come with an RTX 4050, 4060, or 4070, and there’s an Arc A370M option as well. The XPS 17 does not have the Arc option but does offer a 4080. Elsewhere, both units can come with up to 64GB of RAM (DDR5) and 4TB of storage onboard, supporting up to 8GB of total storage.

XPS 17 also looks familiar, I gotta say.

It appears that not all options will be...

Instagram’s updated algorithm prioritizes original content instead of rip-offs

Image: Kristen Radtke / The Verge Instagram is making significant changes to how its system recommends content, with a focus on original content and increased distribution for smaller accounts. The slew of changes were announced by the company in a blog post today. The biggest change deals with aggregators — accounts that download or screenshot other users’ videos and photos and repost them. Sometimes aggregators will credit the original poster by tagging them in the post or caption, but often, content is wholesale ripped off with no acknowledgment, and engagement is siphoned off from the person who created the content in the first place. Instagram clearly has a problem with this and will begin removing reposted content from recommendations across the platform. The...

JPGs are ready to post just about anywhere, while RAWs yield an unfinished file filled with extra data that allows for much richer post-processing. That option for a RAW file (and even the generic name, RAW) has been standardized across the camera industry — but despite that, the camera world has never actually settled on one standardized RAW format. Most cameras capture RAW files in proprietary formats, like Canon’s CR3, Nikon’s NEF, and Sony’s ARW. The result is a world of compatibility issues. Photo editing software needs to specifically support not just each manufacturer’s file type but also make changes for each new camera that shoots it. That creates pain for app developers and early camera adopters who want to know that their preferred software will just work. Adobe tried to solve this problem years ago with a universal RAW form...
