androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-11-09 11:12:27

Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority TL;DR The latest Gboard beta contains clues that separate toggles to hide the comma and period keys may soon be available. Back in March, we spotted a single toggle for both keys being tested. If rolled out, users could choose a cleaner keyboard interface. Back in March, we reported that Google was working on a Gboard option to hide both the comma and period keys.

Nolen Johnson TL;DR Google launched Jamboard back in 2017 as a digital whiteboard for teams. Official Jamboard support ended at the start of this year. Now that old hardware can run modern Android thanks to some unofficial LineageOS ports. What’s your favorite canceled Google hardware? The ill-fated Nexus Q?

Progress towards universal Copy/Paste shortcuts on Linux

news.ycombinator.com Mark Stosberg 2025-11-18 04:00:04

On Linux, Control-C and Control-V don't work for copying and pasting in terminals. The Control modifier is used for its original purpose of inserting control codes. Instead, terminal apps require an extra Shift modifier, like Control+Shift+C. But what if there were hidden shortcut combos for copy and paste on Linux that work across most apps without adding any additional software or configuration? By the end of 2025, this will be the case, and many apps already support them. Here's the scoop!

‘Witchboard’ Summons a Fun but Uneven Remake of a Cult Classic

gizmodo.com Cheryl Eddy 2025-11-23 00:00:48

Released in 1986, the original Witchboard‘s cultural impact lingers mostly because it stars Tawny Kitaen—known more for being a music-video vixen than an actor. But the stunt casting works: her character’s Ouija board curiosity turns tragic when an evil spirit takes a shine to her, possibly lured in by her perfectly teased hair. The movie delivers more cheese than frights, but you can easily see why it became a cult classic. Less clear is why Witchboard needed a remake, especially one that only

Even the most die-hard iPad fans have started to lose faith in recent years. Apple has constantly hobbled its tablet’s potential, twinning laptop-grade chips with an operating system that screamed, “You still need a Mac to do your work.” But now iPadOS 26 promises Mac-like multitasking, a revamped Files app, and proper background tasks.
