‘I Know What You Did Last Summer’ Cleverly Hooks a New Generation

The new I Know What You Did Last Summer offers a bold, refreshing take on horror requels that’s a worthy successor to the original film. While stars of the 1997 film Jennifer Love Hewitt and Freddie Prinze Jr. reprise their roles as Julie James and Ray Bronson, it’s a relief that they are not the parents of any of the new gang of accidental murderers. This isn’t just I Know What You Did: The Next Generation, and the fact that it isn’t speaks to the new film’s desire to do something more than jus

Struggling With Hair Loss? This First-Ever Prescription Gummy May Help

You've tried the serums, the vitamins and the topical solutions? How about a prescription gummy for hair loss? Hers, a telehealth company that provides online healthcare services and products for women, announced the launch of its Biotin-plus-Minoxidil Gummy, the first-of-its-kind prescription gummy formulated to support hair regrowth. Available through forhers.com, this gummy combines prescription-strength minoxidil, the only FDA-approved ingredient for female hair loss, with biotin, a popular

What Actually Happens When Programmers Use AI Is Hilarious, According to a New Study

AI has taken the programming world by storm, with a flurry of speculation about the tech replacing human coders, and Google's CEO recently claiming that 25 percent of the company's code is now AI-generated. But it's possible that in practice, AI is actually hindering efficient software development. As flagged by Ars Technica, a new study from the nonprofit Model Evaluation and Threat Research (METR) found that in practice, programmers are actually slower when using AI assistance tools than maki

I’m Rewatching All of the ‘What You Did Last Summer’ Films Before the Reboot. Here’s How You Can Stream Them

I was just an elementary school kid when I Know What You Did Last Summer first fell on my radar, and I was hooked (pun fully intended), even though it wasn’t until several years later that I actually watched the entire film. The 1997 movie plays out a bit like Scream without the self-aware humor, which makes sense considering that Kevin Williamson penned the screenplays for both movies. Despite its more straightforward slasher approach, the movie’s summer setting makes it a fun, warm-weather wat

Recommended Practice for Variant Design of Electronics Production Line (IEEE Std 3147-2024)

Introduction The rapid development of electronic products results in a significant need for either upgrading existing electronics production lines (EPLs) or designing newEPLs. Changes in product orders also lead to a frequent reconfiguration of electronics production lines. However, due to unreasonable design, many EPLs fail to meet the initial objective. This recommended practice addresses a preferred technique to help practitioners efficiently design a high-performance EPL. Overview of the S

Google Drive could get seamlessly smarter about your PDF documents (APK teardown)

Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority TL;DR Google is working on bringing automatic PDF summaries to Google Drive’s PDF viewer on Android. The summary will appear at the top of the document pane without user interaction. Users can provide feedback on summaries and interact with Gemini for more answers. We’ve previously spotted that Google Drive on Android could soon serve PDF summaries through the PDF viewer. While the control given to users is excellent, there was potential to streamline the

Get the macOS Finder to Do Just About Anything by Typing Natural Language Commands

I'm genuinely not sure if large language models—often referred to as “AI” in shorthand—are the future of computing. But I also don't think chatbots are how people will use this technology in the years to come. Substage, an indie Mac application by developer Joseph Humfrey, is a simple app that points to a potential alternative—one that's useful right now. This application floats under every Finder window, meaning you see it only when you're browsing files in macOS. You can type English-languag

Google’s Discover page now summarizes news with AI

Google is rolling out AI-generated summaries directly within Discover, its personalized news feed nestled within the Google Search app. TechCrunch reports that some users in the US are seeing Discover cards on iOS and Android that provide the new summaries in place of a headline and logo from a single publisher, similar to how AI Overviews appear at the top of results in Search. It acts to further obscure news sources at a time when search traffic to publishers is disappearing. The AI summaries

'The Summer I Turned Pretty' Is Back: How to Watch Belly, Conrad and Jeremiah's Final Season

It's not summer without you. Jenny Han's The Summer I Turned Pretty is back this week for its third and final season. Fans have been eagerly awaiting the final installment for more than a year now, and from what we've seen in the official season trailer, this is bound to be another drama-filled summer -- there might even be a wedding? The show is based off the book trilogy of the same name by Jenny Han, who has been executive producing the TV series. Isabelle "Belly" Conklin (Lola Tung) kicks o

Never fear, reaction videos are still allowed under YouTube's new 'inauthentic content' policy

YouTube has clarified its rules about repetitious content and your favorite reaction video channel won't be impacted. Earlier this month, the platform said it would be changing its rules for monetization in an effort to address AI-generated materials, but didn't include many specifics, which led many to sound the alarm that reaction videos might get swept up in the new rules. The company has now provided a few tweaks and more clear delineations in its guidelines about channel monetization polici

We Can’t Get Enough of Jimmy Olsen in ‘Superman’

“What is going on with Jimmy Olsen?” I recently asked the stars of Superman. “What is it about that guy?” “He’s got rizz,” replied Rachel Brosnahan, who plays Olsen’s fellow reporter Lois Lane. “This is a true fact about Skyler Gisondo,” Clark Kent himself, David Corenswet, added about the Olsen actor. “Which I hope is appropriate to share. Sorry, Skyler… His testosterone is through the roof. Off the charts. True story. So of course, who is surprised that his Jimmy Olsen is pulling the kind of g

Petabit-class transmission over > 1000 km using standard 19-core optical fiber

An international research team led by the Photonic Network Laboratory at the National Institute of Information and Communications Technology (NICT, President: TOKUDA Hideyuki Ph.D.), and including Sumitomo Electric Industries, Ltd. (Sumitomo Electric, President: INOUE Osamu) have set a new world record in optical fiber communications, achieving data transmission at 1.02 petabits per second over a distance of 1,808 kilometers (roughly equivalent to the distance from Sapporo to Fukuoka, from Misso

The Commodore 64 Is Back—and More Gamer-Fueled Than Ever With a Transparent RGB Case

The Commodore 64 deserves to have a happy ending it never got in life. You’ve likely seen at least one of those rounded beige rectangles sitting prone and forlorn in some office or forgotten attic. For those who loved their age-old home computer, the big blocky keyboard is back, and for $300 you can get what may be the most accurate recreation of the classic computer, no software emulation required. At least, it will be when the company manages to finalize the operating system and produce all th

Pixel Watch 4 battery upgrade is coming, but don’t expect magic

TL;DR Google’s next-generation Pixel Watch models could get a modest battery capacity increase. The 41mm Pixel Watch 4 may arrive with a 327mAh battery, and the 45mm Watch 3 getting a 459mAh component. Compared to Watch 3 models, that would represent a capacity increase of 7% and 9%, respectively. What do you expect from a new generation of wearables? Samsung just introduced its Galaxy Watch 8 series, and the company’s move to embrace that squircle design across the entire lineup has proven c

Exclusive: Google Pixel Watch 4 to use the same processor as Pixel Watch 2 and 3

TL;DR Google’s next-gen Pixel Watch 4 is keeping the same Snapdragon W5 Gen 1 chip that’s been used since the Pixel Watch 2. Both 41mm and 45mm models should receive slightly larger batteries. As we approach Google’s 2025 Pixel event, we already know almost everything about its next generation of phones, but the same can’t be said about the upcoming Pixel Watch 4. Other than some renders and a color options leak, there’s been nothing concrete said about the new smartwatches. We heard some info

Google’s Discover feed may be getting an AI feature no one asked for

Joe Maring / Android Authority TL;DR Google is testing AI summaries for articles in the Discover feed. Like AI overviews in Google Search, Discover feed summaries combine information from multiple sources instead of just referencing one. Google is also testing a new button to bookmark articles that can be revisited later. Of late, Google has been experimenting with multiple ways to make its AI applications more visible, especially to users who have steered clear of Gemini so far. After rolli

Amogy raises $80M to power ships and data centers with ammonia

From tariffs to the recent reconciliation bill, climate tech startups have been grappling with a rapidly changing landscape. Brooklyn-based startup Amogy has managed to avoid turbulence induced by U.S. politics by keeping its sights on more promising foreign markets. Amogy’s ammonia-to-power tech and its focus on Asian markets, including Japan, South Korea, and Singapore, has helped it land a fresh $23 million in funding. The round, which brings its most recent fundraise to $80 million, increas

Musk's xAI faces European scrutiny over Grok's 'horrific' antisemitic posts

The Grok logo is being displayed on a smartphone with Xai visible in the background in this photo illustration on April 1, 2024. The European Union on Monday called in representatives from Elon Musk's xAI after the company's social network X, and chatbot Grok, generated and spread anti-semitic hate speech, including praise for Adolf Hitler, last week. A spokesperson for the European Commission told CNBC via e-mail that a technical meeting will take place on Tuesday. xAI did not immediately re

Too Hot to Stay in the Kitchen? 9 Ways to Stay Cool While Cooking This Summer

Summer is in full swing, and the heat waves have arrived. Already this summer we've seen massive heat domes that blanketed the Northeast, driving temperatures above 100 degrees Fahrenheit. When it's hot outside, the last thing you want to do is stand over an oven while trying to cook up a tasty dinner. However, just because it's hot outside doesn't mean your only option is takeout.

Nvidia chips become the first GPUs to fall to Rowhammer bit-flip attacks

Nvidia is recommending a mitigation for customers of one of its GPU product lines that will degrade performance by up to 10 percent in a bid to protect users from exploits that could let hackers sabotage work projects and possibly cause other compromises. The move comes in response to an attack a team of academic researchers demonstrated against Nvidia’s RTX A6000, a widely used GPU for high-performance computing that’s available from many cloud services. A vulnerability the researchers discove

Bold Mission to Hunt for Aliens on Venus Is Happening

A UK-based mission is aiming to settle, once and for all, whether life exists on Venus. The mission plans to send a probe to the planet in search of microbial life, not on the surface, of course, but in the Venusian clouds. Over the past half-decade, scientists have detected the presence of phosphine and ammonia—two potential signs of biological activity—in Venus’s clouds. On Earth, both gases are produced only by biological activity and industrial processes, and scientists are unsure of their

Cheng Xin | Getty Images News | Getty Images In China's fiercely competitive market, the latest price war is playing out in the growing "instant commerce" sector, where companies are launching massive subsidies and other incentives to get consumers to spend. The 'instant commerce' sector is backed by massive networks of scooter drivers that quickly transport everything from food and drink to fast f

Gboard could make it much easier to type and edit even without touching your phone (APK teardown)

Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority TL;DR Google reveals more clues about its improved voice typing feature in Gboard.

The fish kick may be the fastest subsurface swim stroke yet (2015)

I tug my black swim cap over my hair, strap on my pink goggles, and keep a focused calm, like Michael Phelps before a race. It’s lap swim on a Monday afternoon at my local YMCA, and I’m going to attempt the fish kick. Most fish move through the water with a horizontal wiggle. The fish kick challenges you to copy this movement: You completely submerge yourself underwater, position yourself on your side, keep your arms tight above your head in a streamline, and propel yourself forward with symmetr
