androidauthority.com Unknown 2026-02-16 00:08:09

AssembleDebug / Android Authority TL;DR Google’s currently working on a number of visual changes to how you interact with the Gemini overlay. In addition to updating the coloring and shape of the overlay, we’ve identified a new animation it could use to appear on screen. We can trigger this effect both when accessing the overlay via swiping, as well as long-pressing the power button. Google continues to make the case for Gemini in — well, pretty much everything — and little by little it’s be

Over the years, I’ve tried a ton of chargers, but a lot of them fall into the category that they’re awkward to use, overpriced, or just not reliable.

9to5mac.com Zac Hall 2026-02-16 00:42:01

Sorry or you’re welcome? Apple’s new Liquid Glass visual element is getting any icy design change in some places before it reaches customers. iOS 26 developer beta 3, which will likely be iOS 26 public beta 1 later this month, reduces the transparency effect in a number of places like navigation bars in certain apps. In the example above, the top shows beta 2 while the bottom shows the current look in beta 3. Here are just a few more examples of iOS 26 beta 2 and iOS 26 beta 3 visual changes:

‘Warning Fatigue’ Might Have Made Texas Floods Deadlier

A deluge of rain triggered deadly flash floods in Texas Hill Country over the weekend, causing widespread damage and killing more than 80 people. As the death toll climbs, some experts say “flood warning fatigue” may have discouraged residents from heeding the National Weather Service’s (NWS) warnings. Texas Hill Country is part of “flash flood alley,” a crescent-shaped region that curves from the Dallas area down to San Antonio and then westward. It’s one of the most dangerous places in the U.
