Anticipation is high for the launch of the next iPhone, and so are expectations. Rumors have been swirling for months about the upcoming lineup, which most notably may include a thinner model dubbed the iPhone 17 Air. But speculation isn't stopping there; what Apple reveals this fall could hint at what it has in store for next year, too. Thin phones are undoubtedly having a moment, with companies like Samsung, Huawei, Honor and Oppo debuting slimmer devices in the name of novelty -- and slappi

Jeff Buckley died young but is immortalized in a new documentary

theverge.com Robyn Kanner 2025-12-10 18:00:00

Jeff Buckley captivated an audience of generations with his transcendent voice and soaring guitar. After his untimely passing in 1997 at age 30, he gained posthumous, cult-like status. Never one for the charts, his album Grace has stood the test of time and is listed on Rolling Stone’s 500 Greatest Albums of All Time. His live performances were famous for transforming any space, regardless of size, into an intimate listening experience. And his unfinished demos are something fans have collected

Cohere’s new AI agent platform, North, promises to keep enterprise data secure

techcrunch.com Rebecca Bellan 2025-12-10 18:32:24

AI agent tools promise to siphon out some of the drudgery from daily workflows, but most organizations are hesitant to adopt them yet, harboring a pressing concern: data security. Large enterprises with trade secrets, companies in highly regulated industries, and government agencies have thought more than twice about bringing in AI tools out of concern that their — or worse, their customers’ — data could inadvertently be compromised, or used to train foundation models.

The smallest change in the latest iOS 26 beta should be a guiding principle for Apple

9to5mac.com Ben Lovejoy 2025-12-10 22:15:53

We yesterday highlighted what is quite possibly the smallest user-facing change in the latest iOS 26 beta: the ability to revert the camera app slider to its previous direction. While this is in itself a very tiny change, I do think it ought to be a guiding principle for Apple’s approach to user interfaces … To me, there are two different ways in which you can judge a user interface. The first is how intuitive it is. In other words, can you immediately see how to perform a function even if yo

Born of Hong Kong illustrator Kasing Lung's series "The Monsters," Labubus — those Cheshire cat-smiling cryptids now gracing the backpacks and purses of fashionistas the world around — are supposedly based on Nordic folklore. But it's hard to say where in the series, or in the underlying mythology, Tesla's notorious Cybertrucks might fit in.

Mail no longer buries the ‘Select’ button in iOS 26 beta 5

A small but annoying change in iOS 26 beta has been driving Mail app users bananas since June. As of beta 5, however, Apple has reverted that change and avoided making even more people complain. The issue? iOS 26 beta 1 through 4 required an additional tap before entering select mode to choose multiple emails to mark as read or archive. It doesn’t sound like a big deal when you put it like that, but the feedback was more about a general trend of burying primary controls behind “…” buttons. As

The 'Contrarian Friend' Is Real, and They're Driving Everyone Crazy

There’s a special kind of emotional drain that comes from talking to someone who disagrees with everything you say. And thanks to a string of viral TikToks, this particular red flag now has a name: the “contrarian friend.” This type of companion isn’t just occasionally opinionated or a stickler for proper grammar.

Pull up any list of the ultimate cyberpunk movies and you'll find The Matrix, Blade Runner and Ghost in the Shell. But there's one great tech noir flick that came out at the height of the cyberpunk craze -- and then all-but disappeared. Maybe that's partly because of its title. I'd wanted to rewatch Strange Days for a long time, but I kept forgetting because, honestly, I couldn't remember what it was called. Then I finally rediscovered the sci-fi thriller on Hulu.
