NASA’s new astronaut class includes SpaceX veterans Anna Menon and Yuri Kubo

SpaceX boasts an impressive alumni list. Some have gone on to found the sector’s biggest startups; others become astronauts. NASA unveiled its 2025 astronaut class this week, and two familiar names popped out: Anna Menon and Yuri Kubo. Both spent more than a decade at SpaceX, where they played critical roles in the company’s rise to the behemoth it is today. Menon joined SpaceX in 2018 after a career at NASA in the Mission Control Center, where she provided biomedical support for astronauts. A

Samsung’s next update could give you more freedom over the control panel

Joe Maring / Android Authority TL;DR A new leak suggests Samsung One UI 8.5 will bring a “completely customizable” control panel. While the example screenshots could demonstrate the feature better, they show potential for unprecedented customization. If all modules are movable and removable, this could be Samsung’s biggest control panel redesign in years. We’ve already found a bunch of interesting new features in Samsung One UI 8.5, but we’re not the only ones who have been tinkering with th

Finally, I found an 'Ultra' Android phone with specs and features that truly matter

TCL Nxtpaper 60 Ultra ZDNET's key takeaways the TCL Nxtpaper 60 Ultra is currently available in Europe for €449 for the 256GB version or €499 for 512GB. It has a large, 7.2-inch screen with a 120 Hz refresh rate that mimics an e-Ink display and a pleasant writing experience with the stylus. It's not yet available in the US. View now at TCL TCL's Nxtpaper technology is truly unique, but after reviewing the TCL 60 XE Nxtpaper 5G, I realized its potential has been limited to lower-end smartphone

Obscure feature + obscure feature + obscure feature = compiler bug

Michael Gibson Senior Engineer, Antithesis Obscure feature + obscure feature + obscure feature = bug Debugging In the quarter century I’ve been programming professionally, I’ve found three C++ compiler bugs; one each in g++1, clang++, and Microsoft’s MSVC. After finding roughly one problem every ten years, my takeaway is that you have to do something really, really obscure. Or actually, you have to use an obscure feature then pile on another obscure feature and pile on another obscure feature.

GoPro Is Fighting Insta360’s X5 With Its Own ‘True 8K’ Max2 360-Degree Camera

GoPro is breaking with tradition this year and not releasing a direct follow-up to the Hero 13 Black. Instead of a single flagship action camera, GoPro is releasing three products to offer consumers more choices up and down the price spectrum. Headlining the trio is the Max2, a 360-degree camera successor to the Max that was released in 2019. (Yes, the name is Max2, no spaces. Technically, it’s MAX2, but there’s just no need to yell.) The $500 360 camera is clearly targeting its sights at Insta

The first Android flagships with 100W universal fast charging are coming

Robert Triggs / Android Authority TL;DR The upcoming Xiaomi 17 series will support 100W USB PD PPS charging, a universal standard for fast charging. Xiaomi has explicitly confirmed that users will no longer need proprietary chargers and cables for the fastest charging speeds. The move could pressure other Android manufacturers to abandon their own proprietary fast charging solutions and adopt universal standards. USB Power Delivery promised to be the holy grail of smartphone charging, but se

Is this rugged Android phone with a 22,000mAh legit? My verdict after a week of stress tests

Doogee S200 Max ZDNET's key takeaways The Doogee S200 Max is on sale now for $750. It's a super chunky handset that won't fit in your pockets, but it's incredibly durable, passing IP68/IP69K and MIL-STD-810H standards. It's not exactly cheap, and you have to be a certain user to carry a phone this durable. $799.99 at Amazon Follow ZDNET: Add us as a preferred source on Google.

Former NotebookLM devs’ new app, Huxe, taps audio to help you with news and research

Google’s AI note-taking and research assistant NotebookLM took off to a spectacular reception at launch, capturing people’s imaginations with its ability to quickly whip up summaries and reports, and turn reams of documents into “podcasts” with AI hosts discussing the topic to help users in their research. Inspired by the success of the project, three devs who worked on NotebookLM since its inception are now building an audio-first app called Huxe, which can similarly help users dive deep into

Slim, smart, and strong: TECNO’s answer to ultra-thin competition

Ryan Haines / Android Authority Thin phones are the hottest thing in flagships right now, and it’s easy to see why. They try to fit the best of the Android or iOS experience into a lighter, easier-to-hold body, pushing the limits of engineering along the way. Only, in the case of the Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge and iPhone Air, there are quite a few limits to be found — especially when it comes to battery life. Now, TECNO wants to prove that there are ways around those limits. It has introduced its

GoPro Max 2 review: There's a new 360 camera contender in town

In a break from tradition, GoPro hasn’t announced a new Hero Black camera this fall. Instead, this year’s flagship is the much-rumored Max 2 360 camera ($500). The Max 2 lands at a time when spherical video is having a mini renaissance, taking on Insta360’s X5 ($550) and DJI’s Osmo 360 ($550). Perhaps surprisingly, GoPro’s Max 2 is the most affordable of the three, suggesting that the company might be looking to gain ground on its rivals and, hopefully, make the creatively warped world of 360-de

GoPro’s 360-degree action cam gets an 8K upgrade and swappable lenses

is a senior reporter who’s been covering and reviewing the latest gadgets and tech since 2006, but has loved all things electronic since he was a kid. It’s been nearly six years since GoPro launched its Max 360-degree camera. The original was only slightly larger than the company’s iconic action cameras and while the new Max2 is a bit taller, thicker, and 36 grams heavier than its predecessor, its 360-degree video capabilities have been improved from 5.6K / 30fps to 8K / 30fps, and it now allow

Mesh: I tried Htmx, then ditched it

There is a kind of exciting movement in Web dev right now. Web devs are talking about "JavaScript Fatigue", "Framework Fatigue", the "Revival of Hypermedia" and "HTML Over The Wire". In a word: we're asking ourselves why we're building HTML in JavaScript. The figurehead for this movement is undoubtedly HTMX. It shows that much of what we do in JavaScript could instead be done declaratively, with HTML attributes. If browsers adopted these semantics natively, many websites - and even apps - would

Eureka J15 Max Ultra — One of our favorite robot vacuums gets a huge upgrade

Remember when you had to pick up a stuck robot vacuum and clean the roller because of minor hair tangles? Those days of needing to frequently fix a stopped vacuum during cleaning have become a thing of the past, thanks to incredible advancements in technology. Today’s robot vacuums can run smoothly for months without needing any help. This rapid evolution is partly because brands like Eureka always push themselves to innovate, and certainly don’t believe in incremental updates between models. T

More Android flagships are confirmed to get a camera kit, this time from ZEISS

Hadlee Simons / Android Authority TL;DR vivo has confirmed that its entire upcoming X300 series will be compatible with its existing ZEISS 2.35x telephoto converter. The company has shared renders of the X300 and X300 Pro with the ZEISS camera kit, including a new silver-colored model to accompany the base X300. The X300 Ultra will potentially also support the same ZEISS 2.35x telephoto converter, though we are hoping for more functionality through new lenses. The next round of Android flags

Compiling a Functional Language to LLVM (2023)

Recently I thought it would be good to start compiling the small functional language mimsa I’ve been messing around with for the last few years to LLVM. There’s a few really helpful resources - Joseph Morag’s Micro-C series, and Mapping High Level Concepts to LLVM IR in particular, but neither go into converting functional programming paradigms such as pattern matching, lambdas and ADTs in much depth. So, here we’re going to give it a go. The plan is that we start with an entirely working but t

Apple iPhone 17 vs. Google Pixel 10: How Each Flagship Phone Stacks Up

Apple's iPhone 17 and Google's Pixel 10 have a lot in common this year. Both phones may look very similar to prior iPhone and Pixel phones, but it's on the inside, there are new features that can make both phones feel quite new. For the $829 iPhone 17, Apple's bumped up the base storage to 256GB, brought a 120Hz ProMotion display to the base iPhone for the first time and threw in the new Center Stage front-facing camera that lets you take horizontal and vertical photos without rotating the phon

WIRED Tested the Best Organic Sheets (2025): Coyuchi, The Citizenry

What to Look for in Organic Sheets Organic means many things. It's often used to confirm that food was grown without toxic pesticides and chemicals, and doesn't have things like growth hormones or GMOs, in order to label it as organic food. For bedding, it should mean both that organic materials were used to make the fabric—no toxic pesticides used in farming, etc.—and that they were produced organically with nontoxic chemicals. You'll want at least two certifications to prove this. Most sheet

X server implementation for SIXEL-featured terminals (2010-2014)

X Server The X server accepts requests from client applications to create windows, which are (normally rectangular) "virtual screens" that the client program can draw into. Windows are then composed on the actual screen by the X server (or by a separate composite manager) as directed by the window manager, which usually communicates with the user via graphical controls such as buttons and draggable titlebars and borders. For a comprehensive overview of X Server and X Window System, consult the f

iPhone Air Proves That Thinner Can Be Better, and Easy to Repair

The iPhone Air is really thin and, as it turns out, easy to repair, too. iFixit, a website that helps people DIY repair a wide array of electronics, tested the iPhone Air and gave it a "respectable" 7 out of 10 for repairability. Don't miss any of our unbiased tech content and lab-based reviews. Add CNET as a preferred Google source. "Apple has proved that thin doesn't have to mean unfixable," iFixit noted in its field test.

US intel officials “concerned” China will soon master reusable launch

SpaceX scored its 500th landing of a Falcon 9 first stage booster on an otherwise routine flight earlier this month, sending 28 Starlink communications satellites into orbit. Barring any unforeseen problems, SpaceX will mark the 500th re-flight of a Falcon first stage later this year. A handful of other US companies, including Blue Origin, Rocket Lab, Relativity Space, and Stoke Space, are on the way to replicating or building on SpaceX's achievements in recycling rocket parts.
