U.S. Government Removing EV Chargers From All Federal Buildings Because They Are ‘Not Mission-Critical’

gizmodo.com Thomas Maxwell 2025-11-18 00:05:44

As part of its continued efforts to own the libs, or get rid of anything President Trump does not like or understand, the General Services Administration is gearing up to remove electric chargers from all federal properties nationwide. The agency says the hundreds of chargers and estimated 8,000 plugs available for federal workers to charge their cars are “not mission critical.” The agency, which manages buildings owned by the federal government as well as vehicles, will also offload any EVs pur

Apple Vision Pro Headset Gets Overdue Missing Features, Including Apple Intelligence

cnet.com Scott Stein 2025-11-17 22:05:00

Apple's futuristic Vision Pro headset hit the one-year mark, but during that initial year, it still felt like it was missing some key features. Now, Apple is addressing a few of those features, at least in small steps, with VisionOS 2.4. Apple Intelligence is finally arriving on Vision Pro, along with some connected apps and guest mode features for iPhones and iPads. The new OS update can be tested in a developer beta arriving today, but the official OS update isn't coming until April. I've bee

Theragun Alternatives: Best Budget Massage Guns for 2025

cnet.com James Bricknell 2025-11-17 23:39:00

Like Therabody, Hyperice is a premium brand with prices to match. And speaking of matching, the Hypervolt Go sells for around the same price as the Theragun Mini. But I like the former more, in part because it comes with two heads instead of one massage gun head and has a more comfortable gun-style design. It's a compact massage gun when compared to the likes of the MaxKare and Taotronics models, but also larger than the Naipo and Recoverfun. So let's call it "medium." But, wow, is it powerful

As the Kernel Turns: Rust in Linux saga reaches the “Linus in all-caps” phase

arstechnica.com Unknown 2025-11-17 22:55:11

Rust, a modern and notably more memory-safe language than C, once seemed like it was on a steady, calm, and gradual approach into the Linux kernel. In 2021, Linux kernel leaders, like founder and leader Linus Torvalds himself, were impressed with the language but had a "wait and see" approach. Rust for Linux gained supporters and momentum, and in October 2022, Torvalds approved a pull request adding support for Rust code in the kernel. By late 2024, however, Rust enthusiasts were frustrated wi

“Bouncing” winds damaged Houston skyscrapers in 2024

arstechnica.com Unknown 2025-11-18 00:32:08

On May 16, 2024, a powerful derecho swept through Houston, killing seven people and causing significant damage to several of the city's towering skyscrapers. Those buildings were constructed to withstand much stronger hurricane-force winds up to 67 meters per second, as one would get with a Category 4 hurricane. The derecho's winds peaked at 40 meters per second, well below that threshold. And when Hurricane Beryl hit Houston that July with roughly comparable wind speeds of 36 meters per second,

Under new bill, Bigfoot could become California’s “official cryptid”

arstechnica.com Unknown 2025-11-18 02:01:35

You might suspect that a one-line bill about Bigfoot that bears the number "666" is a joke, but AB-666 is apparently a serious offering from California Assemblymember Chris Rogers. Rogers represents a California district known for its Bigfoot sightings (or "sightings," depending on your persuasion—many of these have been faked), and he wants to make Bigfoot the "official cryptid" of the state. His bill notes that California already has many official symbols, including the golden poppy (official
