StubHub CEO says recent change to all-in ticket prices will dent revenue

StubHub CEO Eric Baker said Wednesday that recently introduced federal regulations around transparent ticket pricing will cause a "one-time" hit to its financial results. Revenue is expected to dip year over year as consumers digest the new rules, Baker told CNBC, which require online ticket sellers to prominently show the total cost upfront. "We've seen this in states like New York that have done it. You have a drop off and it hits about 10%. ... Then it's just back to normal," Baker said in

Galaxy owners baffled by ‘daily download limit’ error for updates

Ryan Haines / Android Authority TL;DR Galaxy phone users are running into an unusual error message when attempting to download an update. The message says “the server has reached its daily download limit.” It appears that Samsung may have had a glitch in its update infrastructure. Samsung recently started rolling out its September 2025 security update. As you would expect, this build contains a variety of vulnerability fixes for Galaxy devices. While usually you could check to see if the pat

Just got Linux Mint 22.2? Two more versions are coming soon - and they're big

SJVN / Elyse Betters Picaro / ZDNET Follow ZDNET: Add us as a preferred source on Google. ZDNET's key takeaways Two new versions of Linux Mint will appear this year. The first, LMDE, is based on Debian Linux 13. The second, Mint 22.3, will be the next mainstream release. Does it seem like Linux Mint developers just released a new version of their popular Linux distribution? Why, yes. Yes, they did. I installed Linux Mint 22.2, Zara, on Sept. 4. That isn't stopping Clement "Clem" Lefebvre f

Unprecedented ‘Einstein Cross’ Reveals Fifth Ghost Image and a Dark Matter Surprise

When gravity—an invisible yet ubiquitous force—bends and distorts light from distant galaxies, Earthbound observers get a rare glimpse of elusive cosmic phenomena. And the weirder the glitch, the more insightful the finding, as a team of astronomers recently discovered. These glitches are formally referred to as Einstein Crosses. As light from a distant galaxy travels toward our observatories, the gravitational force of galaxies closer to us bends that light, creating an image of four bright do

8BitDo’s wireless N64-inspired controller is 30 percent off

I’ve been seeing emails in my inbox every week about how RTX 50-series GPUs are in stock at many retailers, but the bigger news is that stock is apparently so plentiful that we’re seeing deals worth sharing. Whether you have a small form factor desktop build or not, thewith a triple-fan setup takes up just 2.5 slots in your case, making it a compact option if you’re trying to keep your components neatly tucked. This model debuted at $829.99, but for the past couple of weeks it has been available

Man Applies for Job, Sits for Interview, Then Realizes They're Trying to Peddle "Mock Interviews With an AI Interviewer"

When a job seeker named Conor recently applied for a content architecture position, something felt off right away. For one thing, he got an offer for a virtual job interview just minutes after he applied, which seemed like a suspiciously quick turnaround time in today's beleaguered job market. Was there any way that a human had actually reviewed his application? And when he logged in for the interview, he immediately realized he was talking to an AI system, not a human. It wasn't the first tim

From ClickFix to MetaStealer: Dissecting Evolving Threat Actor Techniques

By John Hammond, Alden Schmidt, Lindsey Welch During the past fifteen business days, Huntress analysts have observed increased threat activity involving several notable techniques. One case involved a malicious AnyDesk installer, which initially mimicked a standard ClickFix attack through a fake Cloudflare verification page but then utilized Windows File Explorer and an MSI package masked as a PDF to deploy MetaStealer malware. Additionally, two incidents involving the Cephalus ransomware vari

You can chat with Copilot in Firefox now - and Windows users get an extra perk

Lance Whitney / Elyse Betters Picaro / ZDNET Follow ZDNET: Add us as a preferred source on Google. ZDNET's key takeaways Firefox 143 is now available to download. Update includes 2 big changes and other features. It could win back some users who've left. Mozilla is back with another release of Firefox, and this time, some features might make you come back (if you've left). These two features, along with a few other updates and the usual bug fixes, might make Firefox 143 attractive to a cer

Firefox 143 for Android to introduce DoH

All web browsing starts with a DNS query to find the IP address for the desired service or website. For much of the internet’s history, this query is sent in the clear. DNS-over-HTTPS (DoH) plugs this privacy leak by encrypting the DNS messages, so no one on the network, not your internet service provider or a free public WiFi provider, can eavesdrop on your browsing. In 2020, Firefox became the first browser to roll out DoH by default, starting in the United States and in 2023, we announced

The iPhone 17 brings many long-awaited features, like an always-on display. Abrar Al-Heeti/ Zooey Liao/CNET It's easy to overlook the iPhone 17, especially in a year when the ultraslim iPhone Air has stolen the spotlight -- and the bright orange iPhone 17 Pro is hulking next to it. But subtle upgrades to Apple's baseline model add up to notable improvement

Survey shows these two phones are tied as top Android alternatives for the iPhone 17 Pro

To get a clearer picture, we also asked our readers to vote for their top choices and share their thoughts in the comments. Our goal was to combine both popular opinion and firsthand experiences from Android users to see which devices stand out as serious alternatives to Apple’s most premium iPhone. After collecting over

Pixel 10 phones just received a fix for ‘fuzzy display’ issue

Some Pixel 10 series owners discovered a rather weird bug, as their screens would go “snowy” for several minutes at a time. This also affected one of our review units. Google previously confirmed that it was rolling out a fix , and now, a new update seems to further tackle this. Don’t want to miss the best from Android Authority? 9to5Google spotted a new September 2025 update for Pixel 10 series phones, featuring version number BD3A.250721.001.E1.

iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max review: An impactful redesign

For the sake of this iPhone 17 Pro review, I’ve developed a gaming addiction. I don’t mean triple-A games like Destiny: Rising and Genshin Impact, or even double-A or non-A titles like Inside or Vampire Survivors, both of which I greatly enjoy. I’m specifically referring to Snake Clash on YouTube Games — the type of thing you mindlessly play while pretending to watch a documentary on TV, or while slowly growing a hemorrhoid as you waste away on the throne. The reason I’ve been playing so much

iPhone Air vs. iPhone 17 Pro Max: I compared both flagship models, and here's the winner

Jason Hiner/ZDNET Follow ZDNET: Add us as a preferred source on Google. Apple's iPhone 17 lineup brings some of the biggest design changes the smartphone series has seen in years, and no two models better highlight this shift than the iPhone Air and iPhone 17 Pro Max. The iPhone Air is one of the thinnest smartphones Apple has ever made, made for those who value a sleek, portable design. Meanwhile, the iPhone 17 Pro Max doubles down on power with a cutting-edge camera system and a new vapor c

Apple’s iPhone 17 Pro is a bold redesign but a basic upgrade

It’s a tricky year to review the iPhone Pro. It’s long been the go-to choice for anyone who wants an iPhone with the nicest screen, longest battery, and great cameras. But the display is no longer unique to the Pro, cameras have largely gotten “good enough” on most phones, and Apple has a new model, the Air, which might be even more compelling. This is the first time the iPhone Pro feels like it’s truly targeted at creators — people who need the longest battery life and the best cameras to reco

The Samsung Galaxy S26 Pro already sounds like a massive disappointment

Joe Maring / Android Authority Earlier this summer, Android Authority revealed a potentially huge shakeup for Samsung’s Galaxy S26 series. Instead of the expected Galaxy S26, S26 Plus, and S26 Ultra lineup, we found evidence that Samsung’s 2026 Galaxy S family may consist of the Galaxy S26 Pro, S26 Edge, and S26 Ultra. The idea that Samsung would eliminate the Galaxy S26 and replace it with the Galaxy S26 Pro was the biggest takeaway in my book, as it would open a big opportunity for Samsung.

Pixel 10 series finally joins the Android Beta Program

Rita El Khoury / Android Authority TL;DR The Pixel 10 series can now join the Android Beta Program. Pixel 10 phones now show up with an option to opt in to the Android 16 QPR2 Beta Program. Google has finally opened up the Pixel 10 series to the Android Beta Program. When the phones first launched, they weren’t eligible to enroll, but that’s now changing. If you own a Pixel 10, 10 Pro, or 10 Pro XL, it should now appear alongside your other supported phones on the Android Beta Program page.

How to easily switch your PC from Windows to Linux Mint - for free

sjvn Follow ZDNET: Add us as a preferred source on Google. The clock is ticking on Windows 10. But what about if you've looked at Windows 11 and you hate it? And what about if you're tired of an operating system that Senator Ron Wyden called guilty of "gross cybersecurity negligence?" So, why not switch from Windows to an easy-to-use Linux distro? There are many Linux desktops you could try, but I recommend Linux Mint. It's not only a great distribution, but it's the one I use every day, and

iPhone 17 Pro Max vs. Google Pixel 10 Pro XL: I compared the flagships and here's the winner

Jason Hiner and Kerry Wan/ZDNET Follow ZDNET: Add us as a preferred source on Google. It feels like yesterday when I sat in a Brooklyn warehouse to watch Jimmy Fallon introduce the Google Pixel 10 series to the world. Since then, Apple has joined the fray with the new iPhone 17, and now I've got a few too many new handsets on my mind. Between what Apple and Google announced, the iPhone 17 Pro Max and Google Pixel 10 Pro XL stand out as the best of the best. They're the models that tech enthus

I'm a long-time iPhone Pro user, but I'm seriously considering the Air for these reasons

Jason Hiner/ZDNET Follow ZDNET: Add us as a preferred source on Google. The iPhone "Pro" label has always represented the bleeding edge of Apple's industrial design. This year, I'm second-guessing if that philosophy still holds true in Cupertino. Going into Apple's Awe-dropping event earlier this month, my attention was reserved for the iPhone 17 Pro and 17 Pro Max, both of which were expected to feature a new vapor chamber cooling system -- resolving a longstanding issue of overheating on Pr

This next-gen flagship has a rear screen that’s basically the Z Flip 7’s cover display

TL;DR A Xiaomi 17 Pro series teaser video shows off several uses for the rear display. The rear screen can show various clock styles, lock screen text, avatars, and more, much like a Flip phone’s cover display. A previous leak also notes that this screen can display exercise info, app notifications, and ‘travel card’ swiping. The Xiaomi 17 series will be the first phones with the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor. Xiaomi confirmed that the Pro phones have a rear screen, and a new teaser has

Ozempic May Be Less Effective for Emotional Eaters, Study Suggests

GLP-1 agonists—so-called “wonder drugs” like Ozempic or Wegovy that help individuals lower blood sugar levels and lose weight, among other things—yield significant results for some patients, but not all. People’s motivations to overeat may play a role in this, according to a new study. To investigate why some people don’t benefit from GLP-1 agonists as much as others, researchers observed 92 participants with type 2 diabetes in Japan during their first year of taking GLP-1 drugs. Their results,
