Dyson has launched a new air purifier that filters out various pollutants, including formaldehyde, a harmful chemical found in many household items. The Dyson Purifier Big+Quiet Formaldehyde has a special sensor and filter that detects and destroy formaldehyde. It also has a carbon dioxide sensor that tells you when to ventilate the room. The purifier can deliver purified air over 10 meters, covering large, open-plan spaces. It also operates quietly (at 56 decibels of noise) and has a breeze mode for natural airflow. You can monitor the air quality on the MyDyson app. 

Dyson also offers a similar purifier for commercial use called the Dyson Purifier HEPA Big+Quiet Formaldehyde. Both purifiers have a five-year HEPA H13 particle filter and a new K-Carbon filter.

Nintendo blocks Dolphin emulator from Steam

Nintendo has forced Valve to remove Dolphin, a free open-source emulator for GameCube and Wii games, from Steam. The company sent a legal notice to Valve on May 26, accusing Dolphin of violating its intellectual property rights under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. The Dolphin team can either challenge the notice or comply with it. If they challenge it, Nintendo may sue them in court, which could affect the future of emulators. The Dolphin team says it’s still deciding what to do and will update the public soon. Meanwhile, Dolphin is still available on its website and GitHub page since Nintendo did not contact the Dolphin team directly.
