Apple set to unveil next-gen iPhones and other devices on September 9

Apple is hosting its next product event on Tuesday, September 9, at 10 am Pacific and 1 pm Eastern, the company announced today. Though Apple's event announcements rarely indicate what the company plans to talk about, the company's September events for well over a decade have all revolved around the iPhone. The event will be available to stream from YouTube or from Apple's events website. Rumors about this year's iPhones point to a more significant redesign than in recent years, though Apple i

You’re Getting More New ‘Chainsaw Man’ Before the Movie

As fans eagerly await the theatrical arrival of Chainsaw Man – The Movie: Reze Arc, Crunchyroll is dropping a couple of treats to help recap the anime’s blockbuster first season. It’s a helpful strategy to lure Chainsaw Man newcomers—or readers of Tatsuki Fujimoto’s wildly popular source-material manga—who want to get a feel for the MAPPA-produced anime ahead of its big-screen moment. But the recap films also contain a bonus for existing viewers: the compilation films will include some brand ne

Neuralink 'Participant 1' says his life has changed

It was February 2024 when Noland Arbaugh, the first person to get Elon Musk’s experimental brain chip, rolled across the stage in a wheelchair during a Neuralink “all hands” meeting, revealing his identity for the first time. The room, filled with Neuralink employees, erupted in applause as Arbaugh—who dislocated two of his vertebrae in a swimming accident in 2016 and has since lost sensation and movement below his shoulders—smiled ear to ear in his chair, a red Texas A&M hat planted on his hea

The Pixel Watch 4 doesn’t fix a longtime Fitbit problem, and I hate it

Kaitlyn Cimino / Android Authority Google unveiled the new and improved Pixel Watch 4, yet one of my long-standing asks remains unanswered: true multi-device support. With AI coaching arriving in October, I’d love to see Fitbit allow more than one active device per user. When brands like Garmin and Apple handle this seamlessly, its absence is starting to feel less like an oversight and more like a conscious trade-off. If you could use a Fitbit along with the Pixel Watch, would you do that? 104

Teletext in North America

>>> 2025-08-25 teletext in north america (PDF) I have an ongoing fascination with "interactive TV": a series of efforts, starting in the 1990s and continuing today, to drag the humble living room television into the world of the computer. One of the big appeals of interactive TV was adoption, the average household had a TV long before the average household had a computer. So, it seems like interactive TV services should have proliferated before personal computers, at least following the logic t

Foldable iPhone coming next year to feature four cameras, Touch ID, Apple cellular modem

Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman spilled some more details about the upcoming foldable iPhone in his Power On newsletter today. He says the foldable iPhone will open like a book to reveal a larger inner display, like many Android foldables. The foldable iPhone will feature a total of four cameras, one on the front screen, one on the inside and two on the back. It will also use Touch ID for biometrics and use Apple’s in-house cellular modem for connectivity. The inclusion of four cameras supports the mu

A Physicist Wants to Turn Jupiter’s Largest Moon Into a Gigantic Dark Matter Detector

When searching for the unknown, classic physics wisdom holds that a bigger detector boosts the chances of discovery. A physicist is taking that advice to heart, advancing a bold plan to use none other than Ganymede—Jupiter’s largest moon—as a dark matter detector on an astronomical scale. Dark matter refers to the “invisible” mass that supposedly constitutes 85% of the universe. There’s considerable evidence that dark matter exists, but it’s “dark,” meaning it doesn’t respond to light and very
