Use Xfinity Mobile on a Pixel phone? You may be getting a Wi-Fi Speed Boost

androidauthority.com Unknown 2026-03-15 00:29:48

Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority TL;DR Xfinity Mobile’s WiFi PowerBoost lets your phone access Wi-Fi speeds in excess of the internet plan you’re paying for. So far it’s supported iPhones and Samsung Galaxy flagships and mid-rangers, but not Android phones at large. New settings for “Xfinity Speed Boost” in Google’s Adaptive Connectivity Service app suggest availability could be improving. Going online with your smartphone over a Wi-Fi connection can offer a lot of advantages compared to

Cloudflare blocks largest DDoS attack - here's how to protect yourself

zdnet.com Steven Vaughan-Nichols 2026-03-15 00:23:39

oxygen/Getty Cloudflare is a robust content delivery network (CDN) that specializes in providing protection against distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks. Last month, Cloudflare blocked the largest DDoS attack in internet history. This assault peaked at a staggering 7.3 terabits per second (Tbps).

This EcoFlow power station just kept my lights on during an outage (and it's $1,399 off)

ZDNET's key takeaways The EcoFlow Delta Pro Ultra battery and inverter unit is available now for $6,299 while the Smart Home Panel 2 is available for $1,899. The single unit has a 6kWh capacity and supports a 7,200W output and 5.6kW solar input, allowing it to run an entire home, especially when stacked with other units for increased capacity. The Delta Pro Ultra is a decidedly expensive solution for a home backup system, and though portable, its hefty weight could affect portability. View now

US Supreme Court limits federal judges' power to block Trump orders

news.ycombinator.com Joseph Gedeon 2026-03-14 21:38:08

The US supreme court has supported Donald Trump’s attempt to limit lower-court orders that have so far blocked his administration’s ban on birthright citizenship, in a ruling that could strips federal judges of a power they’ve used to obstruct many of Trump’s orders nationwide. The decision represents a fundamental shift in how US federal courts can constrain presidential power. Previously, any of the country’s more than 1,000 judges in its 94 district courts – the lowest level of federal court

Normalizing Flows Are Capable Generative Models

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2026-03-15 00:50:10

Normalizing Flows (NFs) are likelihood-based models for continuous inputs. They have demonstrated promising results on both density estimation and generative modeling tasks, but have received relatively little attention in recent years. In this work, we demonstrate that NFs are more powerful than previously believed. We present TarFlow: a simple and scalable architecture that enables highly performant NF models.

Gareth Edwards, who directed Godzilla (2014), The Creator, and the brand-new Jurassic World Rebirth, is always going to be asked about his time in the galaxy far, far away. That’s just the nature of Star Wars and, more specifically, Star Wars fans, most of whom look very fondly upon 2016’s Rogue One: A Star Wars Story—especially in the wake of Andor‘s two-season run on Disney+.

Now, you can only expect it “later this year,” according to the most recent update of the Trump Mobile website, with all mention of it “coming soon” gone. That is not the only change.
