Stung by customer losses, Comcast says all its new plans have unlimited data

With Comcast trying to figure out how to stop losing broadband customers, the cable firm yesterday announced new plans that are available nationwide and do not have data caps. Comcast said it is offering "four simple national Internet tiers that include unlimited data and the advanced Xfinity WiFi Gateway for one low monthly price." Customers whose current plans have data caps won't automatically get unlimited data and would have to switch to a new plan to remove that annoying limit from their

Apple Ads Aren't Cool Anymore. Here's What I Think Changed

Nothing about Apple's latest promotional video felt like Apple. For over 7 minutes, an awkward comedian explains to a sleepy audience of disinterested teens that the only way parents will buy them an expensive MacBook for college is to make a convincing PowerPoint business presentation. Problem was, the presentation wasn't convincing -- and it was hard to tell who the video was even targeting. Do the parents who raised the iPad generation need to be swayed to buy Apple products? Or was Apple tr

The surprising way ThredUp uses AI to sort 80,000 new items a day

Bloomberg / Getty Images It doesn't matter if you are with a digital-native or a more traditional organization -- artificial intelligence is going to upend your ways of working or doing business.

Lately, one digital-native company has been moving to generative AI to help reduce the overhead associated with managing its transactions. ThredUp, one of the world's largest online platforms for reselling apparel, s

Forget JBL, Sony 3.1 Channel Soundbar Matches Its Black Friday Price and Beats Last Prime Day’s Deal

Lots of us tend to idealize an amazing TV as the perfect way to set up that home entertainment area, and then if we ever get one, we just sort of leave it at that.

The Obsessive Fans Playing God on 'Love Island'—and Living for the Crash Outs

Carson Campbell didn’t feel any remorse for his vote, and was even relishing in the chaos it might cause one of Love Island USA’s most contentious cast members of the season. “I love mess and I love reality TV,” the 24-year-old student and content creator says. “I love something with an end goal, when people are working toward a purpose.” As a Love Island USA superfan who live-tweets and recaps every episode on TikTok, Campbell feels personally invested in how the reality dating show unfolds.

I Switched from Flutter and Rust to Rust and Egui

This is just a personal experience, there are no absolute truths. Like in any other blog post, a lot of the things you'll read here could be just a skill issue, or legitimate issues. It's up to you to decide. We had an app that had a nice Flutter UI that called Rust binaries. The bindings were generated using flutter_rust_bridge, which is an amazing piece of software. A lot of people have built large and complex apps using this tool. It's crazy how far it can just work, just by running: flutte

Best Gaming TV for 2025: Get the Lowest Input Lag and Highest Picture Quality

Who is it best for: While this year's G5 is the ultimate gaming TV, not everyone wants or needs to pay over $3,000 to play their favorite games. The 2024 C4 offers 100% of the gaming features and about 80% of the picture quality at half the price -- that's what we call mathematics! If you're looking for a TV that's fun to game on and looks just as good with movies, then the C4 is a great buy. Performance: The C4, like the C3 before it, is an excellent gaming TV, and LG hasn't done much to chang

Google’s new and improved Ask Photos is back on track — and rolling out now!

Google I/O TL;DR Ask Photos is a Google Photos feature designed to answer questions about the contents of your photo library. While announced at Google I/O 2024, access over the past year has been extremely limited.

Over the past couple years, AI has been changing the way we do lots of things, and while there is absolutely no shortage of controversial uses of the tech

Facing Rising Seas, Thousands in Tuvalu Seek an Escape Through Australia

As rising sea levels gradually swallow the world’s low-lying island nations, many citizens will have no choice but to leave their homes behind. In Tuvalu, one of the world’s most climate-threatened archipelagos, the migration has already begun. Nearly a third of Tuvalu’s roughly 11,000 residents are seeking Australian visas to escape the encroaching waters. In 2023, Australia announced that it would launch these visas as part of a bilateral treaty it signed with Tuvalu—the world’s first to crea

Google Search launches what could be its most useful experiment in years: Preferred Sources

Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority TL;DR Google Search surfaces recent news posts from various outlets in Top Stories.

New fear unlocked: Your brand-new phone could turn into this moldy mess

TL;DR Porous materials, including some leather substitutes, are susceptible to getting damp and harboring the growth of mold. The new POCO X7 PRO features one colorway that includes just such an eco-leather panel on the handset’s rear. Over on Reddit, one new X7 PRO owner has shared a pic that appears to show mold taking over the leather.

Emma Stone May Be an Alien In the First Trailer for ‘Bugonia’

With films like Poor Things, The Favourite, The Lobster, and more, director Yorgos Lanthimos has become one of the most exciting directors working today. It’s because he can take a relatively normal subject and turn it incredibly weird or take an incredibly weird subject and make it seem normal. We aren’t quite sure which one of those his next film, Bugonia, is yet, but its first teaser all but assures us it’s pure Yorgos.

A Review of Aerospike Nozzles: Current Trends in Aerospace Applications

The design of rocket nozzles aims to expand the combustion gases until the exit pressure matches the ambient pressure, thereby maximizing thrust. However, ambient pressuredecreases as the rocket ascends, posing a challenge for conventional nozzles, which operate efficiently only at a specific altitude [ 30 ]. By adjusting their flow characteristics to the varying atmospheric pressure, aerospike nozzles offer a significant advantage in this regard. To quantify this impact, the thrust coefficient

Jon McNeill brings the operator’s playbook to TechCrunch All Stage

Founders are often told to chase product-market fit before anything else, but what if scaling too soon, too fast, is what’s really holding them back? At TechCrunch All Stage 2025 on July 15 in Boston, Jon McNeill, CEO and co-founder of DVx Ventures (and former president of Tesla and COO of Lyft), will take the Scale Stage to flip the script on conventional startup growth advice. His session, “The Operator’s Playbook for Building and Scaling Sustainable Companies,” explores why the next generat

Here’s why I would avoid the big carrier stores in 2025

Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority Although the three main carriers have significantly increased costs over the past few years, until recently, they still stood out from prepaid services in several major ways. As I pointed out in another recent feature, that’s less true in 2025. Not only have perks and extras worsened, but recent moves have also undermined one of the biggest advantages postpaid carriers previously held: the presence of physical stores. Personally, I’ve been shopping without i

This app tells me I’m going to die 5 times a day, and I love it

Matt Horne / Android Authority Over the last couple of weeks, I’ve been showing friends a notification on my phone. It simply reads, “Don’t forget, you’re going to die.” Most of them immediately responded by looking at me with a mixture of confusion and concern. I like to let that look sit for a moment before explaining what’s going on. Far from suggesting that I’m unraveling mentally, these notifications are from an app that wants me to cherish life. It’s called WeCroak, and it sends me five

You opened your laptop, fired up the sprint board, and grabbed the next ticket in the “Ready” column. Maybe it was a small feature. Maybe a bug. Either way, you didn’t write it, you didn’t scope it, and you definitely didn’t question it. Because that’s not how it works here. We are Ticket-Driven Developers now. Thinking is out.
