Nothing’s New Ear 3 Fix One of the Worst Things About Wireless Earbuds

gizmodo.com Raymond Wong 2025-09-24 16:33:10

As I said in my AirPods Pro 3 review, wireless earbuds have reached a ceiling. Generally, the basics—sound, active noise cancellation (ANC), and battery life—can only be improved by so much each generation. The feature that arguably gets the least attention is microphone quality. I’m constantly asking people on calls and Zooms whether they can hear me and if my voice sounds clear or not. The answer is typically no to both if I’m asking. Tech startup Nothing—you know them for their transparent wi

NASA Mission to Map Sun’s Protective Bubble Could Help Better Predict Dangerous Space Weather

gizmodo.com Passant Rabie 2025-09-24 16:38:43

The Sun is an energetic star, constantly radiating energy and pumping streams of charged particles out into space. And while this solar wind can be dangerous in itself, without it, Earth and all the other members of our planetary system would be at constant risk of threats from outer space. Our host star creates a protective bubble called the heliosphere that extends far beyond the orbit of Neptune, shielding the planets from the interstellar medium.

Certain dogs can not only memorize the names of objects like their favorite toys, but they can also extend those labels to entirely new objects with a similar function, regardless of whether or not they are similar in appearance, according to a new paper published in the journal Current Biology. It's a cognitively advanced ability known as "label extension," and for animals to acquire it usually involves years of intensive training in captivity.

While the Trump administration was trying to make a TikTok deal happen during a meeting with China last weekend, Beijing was busy adding its own bargaining chips to the table. Actual chips, in fact—semiconductors. In the past week, China has unveiled a series of regulatory actions targeting American chipmakers. The most significant is an anti-dumping investigation into American legacy chips that power everything from cars and refrigerators to washing machines and data centers. Unlike cutting-ed
