I returned to Pokémon Go after 4 years, and it’s just as painful to play as ever

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-12-29 15:00:15

Megan Ellis / Android Authority I’ve been playing Pokémon Go on and off since the day the mobile game came out in 2016. As a result, I’ve seen its changes over the years — from the introduction of new creatures to catch, the launch of community days and raids, and plenty of other new features. But there’s a reason that I would take breaks from the game, including my four-year pause between 2021 and 2025. Pokémon Go has an accessibility problem. When I started playing it again a few weeks ago,

Internet age verification begins rollout, and Apple is set to be dragged into it

9to5mac.com Ben Lovejoy 2025-12-29 15:52:04

The UK has become the first major country to introduce a legal requirement for internet age verification, but it affects all websites and apps worldwide. Additionally, the US has recently revived a bill very similar to the British legislation. While the law was presented as a way to prevent children accessing adult websites, the reality is very different, and we’re already seeing the privacy risks of good intentions being turned into bad legislation – with iMessage and FaceTime in the firing li

Samsung Electronics has entered into a $16.5 billion contract for supplying semiconductors to Tesla , based on a regulatory filing by the South Korean firm and Tesla CEO Elon Musk's posts on X.

AI Startups Are Making Their Employees Work Hours That Will Make You Break Out in a Cold Sweat

futurism.com Unknown 2025-12-29 04:45:41

AI Startups Are Making Their Employees Work Hours That Will Make You Break Out in a Cold Sweat Would you work 72 hour weeks? All Work, No Play Say a little prayer for AI workers in Silicon Valley. In the rush to conquer the AI sector, some startups have adopted a career schedule known as "996" — a draconian work regimen that first took hold in mainland China, according to Wired, in which employees work from 9am to 9pm, six days a week, for a total of a soul-crushing 72 hours.

Stephen Headrick / Android Authority I was so excited to try out one of the headlining features of Google’s latest Pixel Drop. “Was” is the keyword here, unfortunately. One of the biggest features, prominently displayed in all the marketing for this update, is Pixel VIPs, a feature promised to help you keep up with those you care about most in the most convenient way possible.

Best Breast Pumps (2025): Wearable, Portable, Easy to Clean

wired.com Nena Farrell 2025-12-28 18:02:00

Honorable Mentions Elvie Pump for $550: The Elvie worked just fine, but it didn’t do anything cool enough to warrant such a high price tag. I saw the same results as I had with cheaper pumps, and it didn’t have as many cool features as the similarly priced Willow 3.0. The timer feature is nice, though, as are the fridge- and freezer-ready bottles attached to the wearable pump.

Google makes great apps, but these aren’t it if you ask me

Andy Walker / Android Authority Google is a software company and knows how to make great apps. I mean, I use apps like Gmail, Maps, YouTube, and Drive on a regular basis. Then there are its AI-focused apps like NotebookLM, which is by far the most underrated app in Google’s arsenal. However, there are a few apps I think are way underdeveloped and need some serious work. They’re simply too basic for me, or lack many of the features you get with the competition.

However, with Android 16 QPR1 not rolling out until later this year, and Google still in the testing phases of Material 3 Expressive redesigns for its apps, it’s going to be a while before we really feel the impact of Android’s big redesign.

Not everyone on the same version of the app is experiencing the problem, though, and we’ve reached out to Google for more information.
