Joe Maring / Android Authority TL;DR One UI 8.5 has leaked, and one new feature we’ve already spotted appears to be a system for combatting photosensitive epilepsy. Your phone will detect when video contains flashing lights, and automatically dim the screen. It’s still unclear if this will be available for all devices getting One UI 8.5, and if it will work for gaming.

Oklahoma’s big “TV nudes” scandal was… a Jackie Chan movie on a Samsung streaming service

arstechnica.com Unknown 2025-09-21 12:33:37

Since July, the state of Oklahoma has been consumed by important investigative questions, including: Why did naked women appear on a state-owned TV set during an official Board of Education meeting? Was someone in the room inadvertently streaming pornography from a personal device to the TV? Will anyone be prosecuted for what happened?

Microsoft is making Xbox consoles even more expensive in the US

engadget.com Unknown 2025-09-21 16:34:21

Starting on October 3, Microsoft says Xbox consoles will be getting yet another price bump, this time ranging anywhere from a $20 increase on the company's entry-level model to $70 for a special edition model with 2TB of storage. If all of this sounds familiar, there's a good reason, the last time xbox prices were raised was only a few months ago in May. The price increases breakdown as follows: Xbox Series S (512GB): $400, up $20 from $380 Xbox Series S (1TB): $450 up $20 from $430 Xbox Ser

In March 2025, an anonymous buyer purchased the 1715 “Baron Knoop” Stradivarius for $23 million (U.S.), making it the most expensive violin ever sold.

Earlier this year, the Environmental Protection Agency announced that it was going to reject the work it had done back in 2009, when it first determined that greenhouse gas emissions posed a threat to the US public. While it laid out a number of reasons for revisiting its earlier work, one of those focused on the science: The EPA's original decision was over 15 years old, and it claimed our understanding of climate change had itself changed since then.

Nvidia is in talks to invest $500 million in the London-based self-driving car startup Wayve Technologies. Nvidia’s interest comes as the sci-fi dream of driverless cars inches closer to reality. Alphabet’s Waymo robotaxis already roam several U.S. cities, Tesla is testing its own service in Austin, and Amazon’s Zoox taxis—which have no steering wheels or pedals—just started offering rides in Las Vegas this month.
