Yes or no: Do you have any idea what “wellness” is? Depending on where you live and which online rabbit holes you’ve tripped into, your answer to that question—and your actual definition of wellness—may vary widely. Beyond Wellness The line between science and wellness has been blurred beyond recognition. WIRED is here to help. And yet, we’re in a moment where wellness is the holy grail du jour, sometimes at the expense of our actual health. There’s the softer version of wellness, one characte
In the early 2010s, researchers in Mexico City noticed that sparrows and finches at the national university were lacing their nests with cigarette butts. The birds would collect the butts—mostly smoked—carefully remove the outer paper layer, and weave fibers from the filters into their homes, among the twigs and grass. Beyond Wellness The line between science and wellness has been blurred beyond recognition. WIRED is here to help. This sort of dubious yet intriguing lifestyle choice will be fa
Summer. For teens not at work, it’s hot, it’s boring, and it’s an ideal time to close the door and spend about every waking moment watching, playing, texting, streaming—anything but talking—on the phone. With almost half of teenagers in the US saying they’re online almost constantly, the adults in their lives are growing more desperate to drag them off. Families are establishing screen-free zones in their homes, states are banning phones in schools, and a new kind of summer camp has emerged: dig

As a child, Julian Ako would visit his maternal great-grandfather’s home near Pilaa Beach in Kauai, Hawaii, where he and his family would gather edible fungi that grow on kukui trees and collect seaweed and fish from the reef. For about a decade, that land has belonged to Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg, who is constructing a massive compound at an estimated cost that exceeds $300 million. WIRED can now reveal that Zuckerberg’s property is atop a burial site: Ako’s great-grandmother and her brother we
is a senior editor and author of Notepad , who has been covering all things Microsoft, PC, and tech for over 20 years. Ever since Windows 11 first debuted in October 2021, there have been complaints about its performance on certain types of hardware. Whether it was gaming on new hybrid performance CPUs showing no improvement on Windows 11, or claims that Windows 11 simply feels lethargic compared to Windows 10, Microsoft has tried to fix the problems with updates to the OS. Now, it wants direct
Meta says it won’t sign the European Union’s artificial intelligence code of practice agreement, warning that “Europe is heading down the wrong path on AI.” The code published by the EU on July 10th is a voluntary set of guidelines to help companies follow the AI Act’s rules around general-purpose AI before they come into effect in a few weeks. “We have carefully reviewed the European Commission’s Code of Practice for general-purpose AI (GPAI) models and Meta won’t be signing it,” Meta’s global
Annealed neodymium iron boron magnets sit in a barrel at a Neo Material Technologies Inc. factory in Tianjin, China on June 11, 2010. China's exports of rare-earth magnets to the United States in June surged more than seven times from the prior month, as American firms clamor to get hold of the critical elements following a preliminary Sino-U.S. trade deal. In April, Beijing placed restrictions on several critical magnets, used in advanced tech such as electric vehicles, wind turbines and MRI
Mishaal Rahman / Android Authority TL;DR Google is updating the Fast Pair notification UI for TWS earbuds to make battery status easier to read at a glance. The redesigned notifications include circular battery progress bars, repositioned battery icons, and clear labels for each component. Battery changes trigger color changes for the new progress bars for a better visual impact. A few years ago, Google introduced a useful Fast Pair feature that allows users to check the battery status of th
Paul Jones / Android Authority TL;DR A Twitter user has shown that the Galaxy Z Fold 7 is thinner than the HONOR Magic V5. It turns out both HONOR and OPPO measure their foldables without the protective inner screen film. A closer look at product pages also reveals that some brands don’t include these layers when weighing their foldables. HONOR launched the Magic V5 in China earlier this month, and the company claimed that the white version was the world’s thinnest foldable phone at 8.8mm. H
Read our full Google Pixel 9 Pro and Pixel 9 Pro XL review Processor: Google Tensor G4 | Display: 6.3-inch Super Actua, up to 120Hz | Cameras: Rear array (50MP wide, 48MP ultrawide with Macro Focus, 48MP 5x telephoto lens), 42MP dual PD selfie front camera with autofocus | Battery: 4,700mAh Finally, a smaller Pixel Pro. Google's Pixel series has long been one of the best Android phones around, with the Pro model being the superior version. But it was always a little too big and too cumbersome
Adam Breeden/ZDNET Last year, I was emphatic that my time with Pixel phones was over because Google had announced it was planning to inject even more AI "goodness" into Android. I saw that as an opportunity to jump ship. My goal was to buy the Nothing Phone 3. Then, as fate would have it, Nothing CEO Carl Pei announced that his company was going all-in on AI, and the next Nothing Phone would leverage the technology in ways no other device had. Foiled again. Also: This hidden Pixel camera set
This spring, we had a simple and, to my knowledge, novel idea that turned out to dramatically boost the performance of our vulnerability detection agents at XBOW. On fixed benchmarks and with a constrained number of iterations, we saw success rates rise from 25% to 40%, and then soon after to 55%. The principles behind this idea are not limited to cybersecurity. They apply to a large class of agentic AI setups. Let me share. XBOW’s Challenge XBOW is an autonomous pentester. You point it at yo
Everyone knows Daikin make some of the best air conditioners out there, mechanically speaking. Sadly their WiFi control modules are not so good, especially the latest models which are all cloud based, require an internet connection to even work, and are slow. This code/module provides local control via web interface, MQTT, and HomeAssistant integration, all with no cloud crap. There is also a new Faikin Remote Control available, BLE linked to the Faikin, with environmental sensors, available o
Have you wondered what a medieval king did on a typical day? Thanks to Christine de Pizan, we have an account of what daily life was like for King Charles V of France. Around the year 1404, Christine de Pizan completed her work, Livre des faits et bonnes mœurs du sage roy Charles V. It was both a biography of the French king who reigned from 1364 to 1380 and a guide to how an ideal monarch should live and rule. Christine had a good vantage point to tell this story. Her father, Tommaso di Pizan
Credit: 20th Century Studios There's much to love about this film, including plenty of memorable standout scenes; seven of our favorites are featured below. It's got stellar casting, snappy dialogue, and breaks up the action with quieter character moment that advance the story without slowing the pace. X-Men also takes pains to establish key relationships: Charles and Magneto, Rogue and Wolverine, and the romantic triangle of Jean, Cyclops, and Wolverine. We care about these characters: their i
Industrial Designer Erik and Electrical Engineer Jonathan, two of the creative forces behind the new MYND Bluetooth speaker sat down with us for an interview to give fascinating insights into its development. They tell us how the MYND brings together durability and Open-Source philosophy in a way that allows consumers to let their imaginations run wild with customization ideas. The Longer a Speaker is Used, the Lower its Environmental Impact. Teufel Blog: Erik & Jonathan, please introduce your
1. Your eyes sense color. They do this because you have three different kinds of cone cells on your retinas, which are sensitive to different wavelengths of light. For whatever reason, evolution decided those wavelengths should be overlapping. For example, M cones are most sensitive to 535 nm light, while L cones are most sensitive to 560 nm light. But M cones are still stimulated quite a lot by 560 nm light—around 80% of maximum. This means you never (normally) get to experience having just o
Aravind Srinivas, the CEO of the ambitious AI startup Perplexity, has a clear and startling vision for the future of work. It begins with a simple prompt and ends with the automation of entire professional roles. “A recruiter’s work worth one week is just one prompt: sourcing and reach outs,” Srinivas stated in a recent interview with The Verge’s Decoder” podcast, a prediction that serves as both a mission statement for his new AI-powered browser, Comet, and a stark warning for the modern knowl

Few companies have grown as quickly as Tesla, especially just before and after the company launched the Model 3, its first affordable EV. “We scaled Tesla in 30 months from $2 billion in revenue to $20 billion in revenue,” Jon McNeil, the former president of Tesla who is now co-founder and CEO of DVx Ventures, told the crowd at TechCrunch’s All Stage event in Boston. It wasn’t McNeil’s first time scaling companies, nor would it be his last. Previously, he founded six different companies, and a
Chinese researchers say they've devised a new way to extract water from lunar soil and convert it into fuel. As detailed in a new paper published today in the journal Joule, the team found that their proposed "photothermal strategy" — essentially converting light into heat — could effectively convert carbon dioxide from extracted water into carbon monoxide, hydrogen, and oxygen gas, a "potential route for sustaining human life on the Moon and enabling long-term extraterrestrial exploration."

Andy Walker / Android Authority Features like split-screen mode, Quick Share, and various battery optimizations are more or less common knowledge amongst Android users. But Google’s OS has so many features, it’s easy for some to fly under the radar — especially since they can be buried deep within the settings. A lot of the features I use regularly aren’t talked about as much as they should be, partly due to the fact not everyone is aware that they even exist. I want to change that by sharing
Robert Triggs / Android Authority I’ve seen some absolutely phenomenal camera phones cross my desk this year. The extravagant Xiaomi 15 Ultra and more mainstream OnePlus 13, in particular, have upped the ante on the iPhone, Galaxy, and Pixel triopoly, providing avid photographers more choice than ever before. While some of their best bits will inevitably trickle down to more affordable price points, thereby introducing more consumers to these superb capabilities, there’s also a sense that we m
In 2009, in between full-time shifts at a local factory, then-19-year-old musician Daniel Rosenfeld composed a score for an independent video game. “It was just a side hustle, maybe not even that. It was a hobby, really,” explains Rosenfeld, who records under the name C418. The game, Minecraft, turned out to be successful beyond Rosenfeld’s wildest dreams. In 2014, Microsoft purchased Minecraft’s Swedish developer, Mojang Studios, for $2.5 billion, and through 2023, it had sold 300 million copi
