US and China agree to agree on a TikTok deal

engadget.com Unknown 2025-09-19 23:12:54

The long-promised deal to "save" TikTok remains elusive even as the US and China seem to be inching toward an agreement. On Friday, President Donald Trump did little to clarify where the deal currently stands following a call with Chinese President Xi Jinping. In a post on Truth Social, Trump said both that the two had "made progress" on "approval of the TikTok Deal" and that he "appreciate[s] the TikTok approval." Trump also told reporters in the Oval Office that "he approved the TikTok deal,"

CDC Panel Votes to Nix Current Covid Vaccine Recommendations

gizmodo.com Ed Cara 2025-09-19 21:05:48

On Friday, the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) voted to drop its recommendation that U.S. adults should generally receive the covid-19 vaccine, instead endorsing an individualized approach. In a unanimous decision, the ACIP members agreed that adults 65 and older should decide on their own or with their doctor whether to get vaccinated for covid-19. The ACIP also recommended that people between the ages of 6 months and 64 years make an individual decision about covid-19 vacc

Good day. One of the first things you learn about shaders is that color values range from 0.0 to 1.0. This is known as 8-bit “unorm” color, because each channel has 256 color values, is unsigned (meaning no negatives) and normalized to the 0.0 to 1.0 range. Most of the time, we don’t need to think about this because 8-bits is enough for outputting colors to the screen. Sometimes, blending 8-bit colors is just not enough though.

Tim Cook Swears Tariffs Aren’t to Blame for iPhone 17 Pro Price Hike

gizmodo.com Bruce Gil 2025-09-20 05:40:43

Apple CEO Tim Cook wants everyone—especially Donald Trump—to know that the company’s new iPhone Pro price hike has nothing to do with tariffs. “There’s no increase for tariffs in the prices to be totally clear,” Cook told CNBC’s Jim Cramer on Friday, the launch day for Apple’s iPhone 17 lineup. Earlier this month, Apple announced it would be raising the starting price for its most advanced iPhone by $100.

Bonkers CDC vaccine meeting ends with vote to keep COVID shot access

A two-day federal vaccine advisory meeting crammed with chaos, confusion, inept debate, bizarre comments, and a hot mic catching someone saying "you're an idiot," ended with an unexpected twist: The advisors unanimously voted—possibly unintentionally—to maintain broad access to COVID-19 vaccines. In the 12–0 vote, the committee of advisors selected by anti-vaccine activist Robert F.
