gizmodo.com Gizmodo Deals 2026-02-15 03:35:42

Portable Bluetooth speakers always become hot sellers as summer approaches and there’s a good reason for it: they’re built for adventure, often waterproof, and perfect for taking your music anywhere. If you’re in the market for a mini speaker that delivers on all fronts, the Soundcore Select 4 Go by Anker is a top pick. This product has been influenced by thousands of buyers with a 4.7 out of 5 rating and more than 3,000 reviews on Amazon. It’s my favorite this year and courtesy of Prime Day, y

Everyone Is Yelling at Apple

gizmodo.com Aj Dellinger 2026-02-15 03:45:26

Apple just cannot make anyone happy right now—and that’s not even taking into account the tepid response to its new “liquid glass” design principles. Its stores have become the latest target of climate activists looking to hold corporations for their role in the ongoing climate crisis, while it’s also getting hammered by the Trump administration for its failure to quit China cold turkey. The first hit of the recent barrage of blows that Apple has taken came over the weekend when protesters with

Ancient skull may have been half human, half Neanderthal child

arstechnica.com Unknown 2026-02-15 03:00:30

Back in 1929, archaeologists unearthed several human skeletons (seven adults and three children) while excavating Skuhl Cave just south of Haifa, Israel. Dating back 140,000 years to the end of the Middle Pleistocene, most were classified as early Homo sapiens. But one skeleton was that of a child, between the age of 3 and 5 years old whose features seemed to show a mix of early human and Neanderthal characteristics. A new analysis involving CT scanning may resolve the long-standing debate, acco

Samsung and Epic Games call a truce in app store lawsuit

arstechnica.com Unknown 2026-02-15 03:10:14

Epic Games, buoyed by the massive success of Fortnite, has spent the last few years throwing elbows in the mobile industry to get its app store on more phones. It scored an antitrust win against Google in late 2023, and the following year it went after Samsung for deploying "Auto Blocker" on its Android phones, which would make it harder for users to install the Epic Games Store. Now, the parties have settled the case just days before Samsung will unveil its latest phones. The Epic Store drama

Drive Capital’s second act — how the Columbus venture firm found success after a split

techcrunch.com Connie Loizos 2026-02-12 17:25:59

The venture capital world has always had a hot-and-cold relationship with the Midwest. Investors rush in during boom times, then retreat to the coasts when markets turn sour. For Columbus, Ohio-based Drive Capital, this cycle of attention and disinterest played out against the backdrop of its own internal upheaval several years ago — a co-founder split that could have ended the firm but may have ultimately strengthened it.

In Brief Fortnite maker Epic Games has settled its antitrust case against Samsung, according to a court filing. The case, filed last September, accused Samsung of working with Google to block rival app stores by default on Samsung phones. “We’re dismissing our court case against Samsung following the parties’ discussions,” Epic CEO Tim Sweeney said in a post on X. He added, “We are grateful that Samsung will address Epic’s concerns.” An Epic spokesperson declined further comment, pointing to

iOS 26 beta 3 dials back Liquid Glass

The iPhone’s new glassy look has been toned down with Monday’s release of the third developer beta of iOS 26. This follows user complaints that the update made parts of the user interface more difficult to read. At WWDC 2025 in June, the tech giant introduced its new design language, known as Liquid Glass, which is inspired by the optical qualities of glass in the real world, including how it refracts light and its translucent nature.
