Did this Google Pixel 11 leak just kill the Pixel 10?

androidauthority.com Unknown 2026-04-01 14:30:48

Ryan Haines / Android Authority If the rumors are true, the Google Pixel 10 is just a few short months away. And between new camera features, a 3nm Tensor G5 chipset, and a host of new AI capabilities, there’s a lot to look forward to. But does any of that matter anymore? Yesterday, a new report shed light on fresh details for 2026’s Pixel 11 series — specifically that Google’s Pixel 11 handsets will feature a TSMC-made Tensor G6 chip with a 2nm fabrication design. Not only would that be a jum

The Cherry MX 3.0s Keyboard Looks Like a Great Gaming Keyboard, but It Needs Some Work

I can now read all the passport information, including biometrics. The NFC chip in a passport is protected by a password. The password is printed on the inside of the physical passport. As well as needing to be physically close to the passport for NFC to work, you also need to be able to see the password.

The ‘GQuuuuuuX’ Finale Might Be One of the Most Hopeful ‘Gundam’ Endings in Years

So much of Gundam GQuuuuuuX‘s riffing on the legacy of the 1979 original across its 12 episodes has been almost about a yearning sense of inevitability that it could only end in one way—a retread of what came before narratively, and a continuation of the cycle of conflict that has broadly defined the franchise at large and the Universal Century setting that GQuuuuuuX played with in particular.

Subsecond: A runtime hotpatching engine for Rust hot-reloading

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2026-04-02 04:58:11

§Subsecond: Hot-patching for Rust Subsecond is a library that enables hot-patching for Rust applications. This allows you to change the code of a running application without restarting it. This is useful for game engines, servers, and other long-running applications where the typical edit-compile-run cycle is too slow. Subsecond also implements a technique we call “ThinLinking” which makes compiling Rust code significantly faster in development mode, which can be used outside of hot-patching.

One of the Most Surprising Moments in ‘Elio’ Feels Right Out of a Horror Movie

Pixar’s latest is a sci-fi gem that homages the genre in a surprisingly dark way.
