The most recent "awe dropping" Apple event keynote has come and gone once more, with reveals of the latest iPhones, AirPods and Apple Watches.

From 'Orwell 2+2=5’ to 'Frankenstein’: TIFF's Films on Power, Creation, and Survival Are a Warning

Some of the most urgent films at this year’s Toronto International Film Festival aren’t here to soothe. Together, Orwell: 2+2=5, Put Your Soul on Your Hand and Walk, and Frankenstein play like sizzle reels of caution, and at their best, they’re award-worthy symbols of alarm. These films, the first two of which are documentaries, don’t just entertain—they confront fractured humanity, closeness and distance under Israel’s siege of Gaza, and a creation we’ve set loose, growing beyond our control.

I can’t wait for Samsung and Google to copy this revolutionary iPhone 17 feature

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-10-02 02:00:37

Joe Maring / Android Authority Every Apple event, be it WWDC or the new iPhone launch, brings me a set of confusing thoughts. There’s a lot of mockery over what Apple has decided to copy innovate and their random announcements that no one asked for (hello, iPhone Air), but also a bit of jealousy-slash-awe at Apple’s pull over the entire phone industry. I see that new front-facing camera, and I know many Android brands are now scrambling to copy it in 2026; it’ll easily be the new gold standard

Apple recently announced its latest iPhone 17, 17 Pro, and iPhone Air models – and as we’ve seen, the base iPhone 17 gained a plethora of upgrades that have made it quite a compelling package. That begs the question, does a 2 year old ‘Pro’ iPhone still have a leg up, or should you just go with the new base model iPhone 17?

While that is true, it’s thanks to a brand new USB-PD specification, which isn’t widely available on the market yet.

Wimpy vs. McDonald's: The Battle of the Burgers

When the burger landed on the tables of the first Wimpy Bar in 1954, it marked a new era of modernity, global connection, and convenience for a Britain rebuilding from the austerity of the Second World War. But it later found itself at the heart of a cultural war against these same ideals. ‘The McDonalds are coming’, declared the Reading Post in March 1983 as Wimpy’s competitor gained ground on the British high street. ‘It looks like the battle of the burgers is about to erupt.’ As the first mo

The systems that enable modern life share a common origin. The water supply, the internet, the international supply chains bringing us cheap goods: each began life as a simple, working system. The first electric grid was no more than a handful of electric lamps hooked up to a water wheel in Godalming, England, in 1881. It then took successive decades of tinkering and iteration by thousands of very smart people to scale these systems to the advanced state we enjoy today. At no point did a single
