Apple announced iOS 26 at its Worldwide Developers Conference in June, and the tech giant has since released multiple beta versions of the software. Those versions bring new features, like a Liquid Glass design and call screening to block spam callers, to the iPhones of developers and beta testers. You can expect many of those capabilities to land on your iPhone soon. Apple said it will release the update to the general public this fall, which is good but not the most helpful timeframe. But if

The Oura ring was my favorite smart ring because its app was easy to understand and I liked some of the newer features from its latest software update. At the steep price of $299, this smart ring is made up of aerospace-grade titanium – one of the strongest materials on earth -- according to the site.

Why Apple is fighting legal battles in two countries over 12 cents per iPhone

The Director of ‘RRR’ Is Pulling a ‘Kill Bill’ With Another Fantasy Epic

gizmodo.com Germain Lussier 2025-11-01 18:00:15

In 2015 and 2017, director S.S. Rajamouli released a two-part fantasy epic for the ages.

It uses "Prediction by Partial Matching, Order-2" compression, which is able to compress packed-palette-indices smaller than GIF, PNG, and QOI, while sacrificing a bit of time.
