The Download: affordable EV trucks, and Russia’s latest internet block

technologyreview.com Rhiannon Williams 2025-11-24 14:10:00

On Monday, Ford announced plans for an affordable electric truck with a 2027 delivery date and an expected price tag of about $30,000, thanks in part to a new manufacturing process that it says will help cut costs. This could be the shot in the arm that the slowing US EV market needs. If anything can get Americans excited, it’s a truck, especially an affordable one. However, there are some significant hurdles in the way. EV sales are slowing, and Ford in particular has struggled recently. Th

engadget.com Unknown 2025-11-24 22:00:37

Whether you want a lightweight device to binge your favorite shows, a larger screen for mobile gaming or a portable way to get some work done on the go, a tablet can do it all. They’re also great for keeping kids entertained, managing work tasks or sharing family moments through video calls.

Changing these 6 settings on my iPad improved the battery life by hours

zdnet.com Maria Diaz 2025-11-24 23:00:14

Adam Breeden/ZDNET As an avid iPad user, I'm all too familiar with the internal struggles that course through me when the battery is about to die. I love using either the iPad 11 or iPad Air to write and work, but I also use it to stream content, play games, and browse the internet after work. This makes me appreciate the iPad's long battery life, yet my anxiety grows when I start getting 'low battery' alerts without a charger nearby.

Prefer Chrome Over Safari? Here's How to Change Your iPhone's Default Apps

cnet.com See Full Bio 2025-11-24 23:00:03

Your default apps are the apps your iPhone uses automatically in certain situations. So if you tap a phone number on a website, for example, your iPhone will open your Phone app and place a call to that number. But if you like using a certain browser app, like Chrome or Firefox, you can make that app your iPhone's default browser app. When Apple released iOS 18.2 in December, that update made it easier to change your iPhone's default apps.

I Replaced My Mac With an iPad for an Entire Week. It Went as Well as You’d Expect

Even the most die-hard iPad fans have started to lose faith in recent years. Apple has constantly hobbled its tablet’s potential, twinning laptop-grade chips with an operating system that screamed, “You still need a Mac to do your work.” But now iPadOS 26 promises Mac-like multitasking, a revamped Files app, and proper background tasks. All of which sounds like something that should be fully investigated. Because we do things properly here at WIRED, this could not be a mere cursory glance at ne

Illinois limits the use of AI in therapy and psychotherapy

Illinois last week banned the use of artificial intelligence in mental health therapy, joining a small group of states regulating the emerging use of AI-powered chatbots for emotional support and advice. Licensed therapists in Illinois are now forbidden from using AI to make treatment decisions or communicate with clients, though they can still use AI for administrative tasks.

iPhone 17 release is rumored for September: Everything you need to know ahead of the Apple fall event

If Apple sticks to its usual schedule, we should see the company reveal its latest lineup of smartphones: the iPhone 17 models. The new models will come equipped with the latest iOS 26 features preinstalled, along with whatever additional features Apple reveals at the launch event.
