The Pixel Recorder’s Expressive redesign is rolling out now, but it’s not a total win

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-11-05 06:04:37

Hadlee Simons / Android Authority TL;DR The Pixel Recorder app has received a visual overhaul in line with Google’s Material 3 Expressive style. Expect changes like a larger play button, more prominent toggles, and larger waveforms. The app also takes a step back by moving some useful shortcut icons into the three-dot menu. The Recorder app is one of my favorite Pixel phone features, owing to its on-device transcriptions, cloud backup functionality, and web-based access. Over the years, the

Local Restaurant Exhausted as Google AI Keeps Telling Customers About Daily Specials That Don't Exist

If you're trying to find out what a restaurant has to offer, you might look up its menu, or go to its Facebook page. Hell, you could call and ask. But that's all démodé. Why not query an AI chatbot, a piece of software notorious for inventing facts out of the tokenized ether of the internet, and treat its answer like the word of God?

Satellites Spotted a Strange Glow in the Ocean, and Scientists Have a Wild Explanation

futurism.com Unknown 2025-11-05 11:15:26

Since the early 2000s, scientists have been puzzled by a gleaming turquoise spot in the middle of the Antarctic Ocean showing up in satellite images. The patch is located just south of the great calcite belt, a region that's rich in the mineral form of calcium carbonate, and teeming with coccolithophores, tiny marine organisms that grow reflective calcite shells out of the mineral. The patch itself, however, has been considered far too frigid to support these tiny plankton, causing a longstand

Building a computer in the 90s (2019)

Last Updated on March 19, 2024 by Dave Farquhar Building a computer in the 90s was different than it is today. It wasn’t just harder or more expensive. It seemed like every new build was an adventure. I probably built a few hundred systems before the decade ended, but the first few were definitely the most memorable. One in particular stands out above the rest. It was 1996. My friend Tom wanted a modern computer that was capable of handling photography work. He was in his early 20s at the time

LASIK Without Lasers? Scientists May Have Found a Way

What if you could fix your damaged eye without having to shoot a laser at it? Scientists have potentially discovered a novel method of repairing the cornea, similar to LASIK, that wouldn’t require a laser or other invasive surgical tool. Researchers at Occidental College and the University of California, Irvine, created the technique, which aims to temporarily make the cornea malleable.
