The circular economy could make demolition a thing of the past

Most of us are already quite comfortable recycling our household waste. In Spain, for instance, millions of tonnes of packaging are processed every year, but did you know that buildings and their materials can also be recycled, or that an entire building could be completely dismantled and reassembled? Formula 1, often a laboratory for innovation, offers us a real-world example of this in the form of the Red Bull team’s “pit box”, known as the F1Holzhaus – literally, “the wooden house”. It made

Bitcoin sinks to $115,000 after hitting its newest record, as macro concerns spark liquidation wave

A worsening macroeconomic climate and the collapse of industry giants such as FTX and Terra have weighed on bitcoin's price this year. The crypto market tumbled to begin the week as heightened macro concerns triggered more than $500 million in forced selling of long positions. The price of bitcoin was last lower by 2% at $115,255.70, after touching a new all-time high last week – its fourth one this year – at $124,496. At one point, it fell as low as $114,706. Ether slid 4% to $4,283.15 after

Ars Technica System Guide: Four sample PC builds, from $500 to $5,000

Sometimes I go longer than I intend without writing an updated version of our PC building guide. And while I could just claim to be too busy to spend hours on Newegg or Amazon or other sites digging through dozens of near-identical parts, the lack of updates usually correlates with "times when building a desktop PC is actually a pain in the ass." Through most of 2025, fluctuating and inflated graphics card pricing and limited availability have once again conspired to make a normally fun hobby a

Web apps in a single, portable, self-updating, vanilla HTML file

Experience the Zen of making, hosting, and sharing great software in a single, portable, self-updating, vanilla HTML file Build web apps like you're sculpting clay, not managing infrastructure. Modern web development forces you through layers of abstraction: config files, build steps, magic frameworks, deployment pipelines. Hyperclay returns to a simpler model: your app is a single HTML file you (and your clients) manipulate directly. Edit the file through its visual UI and it persists its own

This 5-in-1 charger is the only one I'll need to travel (and it's full of power)

ZDNET's key takeaways The Statik 5–in-1 SmartCharge is a 10,000mAh capacity power bank and charger that sells for $70. It comes with built-in cables and multiple plug adapters (EU, UK, AU) for seamless charging around the globe in more than 200 countries. It's a great multifunctional charger, but I wish it had a dedicated MagSafe charger for Apple Watch.

Applied Materials sinks 14% on weak guidance due to China demand

Applied Materials shares plunged14% after the semiconductor equipment maker issued weak guidance as it faces demand pressures in China. The company forecast adjusted earnings per share of $2.11, falling short of the $2.39 per share expected by LSEG. The company projected $6.7 billion in revenue, versus the $7.34 billion estimate. During an earnings call with analysts, CEO Gary Dickerson said that the current macroeconomic backdrop and trade issues have fueled "increasing uncertainty and lower

Louisiana AG Calls Out ‘Escape to Epstein Island’ Roblox Game in Lawsuit

The attorney general of Louisiana filed a lawsuit on Thursday against the popular online gaming platform Roblox, accusing it of failing to protect child users. Among the material with which the suit takes issue is a game on the platform called “Escape to Epstein Island” that was labeled as appropriate for all ages. Attorney General Liz Murrill alleges in the lawsuit that Roblox put user growth and profits over child safety, calling it “the perfect place for pedophiles.” “Every parent should be

TikTok’s new guidelines add subtle changes for LIVE creators, AI content, and more

TikTok is preparing an update to its Community Guidelines, which dictate the rules for participating on the social video platform as well as what standards the company uses to determine the videos that make it onto its For You feed. While the update largely rewrites the original text for simplicity’s sake, there are a few items that jump out in the new revision — notably how TikTok prioritizes its marketplace, how deeply it personalizes the experience per user, and a small change to the type of

Tom Cruise Loves Watching Tom Cruise Get Hurt In ‘Mission Impossible’ Movies

We don’t know what the future holds for the Mission: Impossible franchise, but the movies will undoubtedly stand the test of time. For almost 30 years, Tom Cruise has helped turn what could’ve been a simple TV adaptation into one of our most beloved action franchises. And, starting next week, you can watch along with him as that saga takes its potentially final turn. Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning is coming to digital on August 19, and io9 has a very fun exclusive clip. It’s from one

Louisiana attorney general sues Roblox

The attorney general of Louisiana has filed a lawsuit against Roblox, accusing the platform of failing to implement basic safety controls and making the site the “perfect place for pedophiles.” The lawsuit, filed on Thursday by Attorney General Liz Murrill, alleges that Roblox “has and continues to facilitate the distribution of child sexual abuse material and the sexual exploitation of Louisiana’s children.” It also accuses the platform of purposely not rolling out basic safety controls to pro

Lelo Sona 3 Cruise Review: Stale Update

One of my biggest gripes about the sex toy industry—and the tech industry for that matter—is that there's a lot of iteration. New versions of already great products arrive every few years, with very minor changes, and you're left wondering what the latest brings to the table outside of a higher price. Many sex toy brands are guilty of this, from Womanizer and We-Vibe to Dame. Lelo's new Sona 3 Cruise falls into this camp as well, even if its predecessor arrived five years ago. This vibrator doe

Apple trained an LLM to teach itself good UI code in SwiftUI

In a new study, a group of Apple researchers describe a very interesting approach they took to, basically, get an open-source model to teach itself how to build good user interface code in SwiftUI. Here’s how they did it. In the paper UICoder: Finetuning Large Language Models to Generate User Interface Code through Automated Feedback, the researchers explain that while LLMs have gotten better at multiple writing tasks, including creative writing and coding, they still struggle to “reliably gene

The Kuzma Self-Playing Guitar System

They say it takes 10,000 hours to develop mastery, but Michael Kuzma may have pulled it off in 9,400 hours. That's how long it took the guitarist and electrical engineer to develop his Kuzma Self-Playing Guitar System. Kuzma's invention, which can be fitted to any guitar, consists of 3D-printed parts, motors, belt drives, cable drives, actuators and picks. The device can both pick and fret, and while it can't yet play Hendrix, it can do Oasis covers: While it may rankle traditional street perf

Booking.com phishing campaign uses sneaky 'ん' character to trick you

Threat actors are leveraging a Unicode character to make phishing links appear like legitimate Booking.com links in a new campaign distributing malware. The attack makes use of the Japanese hiragana character, ん, which can, on some systems, appear as a forward slash and make a phishing URL appear realistic to a person at a casual glance. BleepingComputer has further come across an Intuit phishing campaign using a lookalike domain using the letter L instead of 'i' in Intuit. Booking.com phishi

I made a real-time C/C++/Rust build visualizer

August 13, 2025・6 minute read Many software projects take a long time to compile. Sometimes that’s just due to the sheer amount of code, like in the LLVM project. But often a build is slower than it should be for dumb, fixable reasons. I’ve had the suspicion that most builds are doing dumb stuff, but I had no way to see it. So I’ve been working on a cross-platform tool to help speed up builds (you can try it, see below). It works with any build system or programming language (Not just C/C++).

Google Wallet has a new shortcut UI, but I’m not sure it’s an upgrade

TL;DR Google Wallet has gained a new UI when you activate it via a double-tap of the power button. This UI features a transparent design and an animation showing you how to tap your phone. Unfortunately, this UI change means you can no longer launch the full app with a double-tap. Android 16 on Pixel phones lets you double-tap the power button to activate Google Wallet. That’s a welcome change as the gesture was previously restricted to launching the camera. Now, a new UI is rolling out for t

I'm a Hot Sleeper, and This $0 Cooling Trick Has Curbed My Night Sweats

I'm a hot sleeper to the point where even a steady stream of air conditioning can't save me from night sweats. So over the years, I've done everything I can think of to stay cool while sleeping — switched my comforter to a light quilt, my cotton pillowcase to a silk one, my pajamas to breathable fabrics like linen — but funny enough, the most helpful change I made cost me nothing and it was right in my linen closet. On my most recent vacation, I stayed at a hotel where the comforter was so thic

Google Photos is testing two time-saving changes to sorting and album sharing (APK teardown)

Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority TL;DR Google Photos may be changing how you group your photos together based on a person’s face. Google is testing new ways to edit or remove the phone owner’s face in the Photos app. These changes are aimed at reducing the number of taps required to update your face or change the name linked to your photos. Google Photos does an excellent job of grouping photos of the same person, and even pets, based on their faces. Besides clubbing pictures of other peo

Fennel libraries as single files (2023)

I’m pleased to announce that most of my libraries for fennel are now shipped as single files! It was a long-standing issue with Fennel for me, as there was no clear way to ship both macros and functions in the same file, but after some experimentation, I figured out a way. After a bit of testing with my new library for asynchronous programming I can say that it works well enough to be used in most other libraries. Although the implementation is a bit rough and manual, that’s what I’ll try to des
