You’ll enjoy the Specialized Turbo Vado SL 2 6.0 Carbon even without assist

arstechnica.com Unknown 2025-09-20 11:00:59

Two things about the Specialized Turbo Vado SL 2 6.0 Carbon are hard to fathom: One is how light and lithe it feels as an e-bike, even with the battery off; the other is how hard it is to recite its full name when other riders ask you about the bike at stop lights and pit stops. I’ve tested about a half-dozen e-bikes for Ars Technica. Each test period has included a ride with my regular group for about 30 miles. Nobody else in my group rides electric, so I try riding with no assist, at least pa

Microsoft’s Entra ID vulnerabilities could have been catastrophic

As businesses around the world have shifted their digital infrastructure over the last decade from self-hosted servers to the cloud, they’ve benefitted from the standardized, built-in security features of major cloud providers like Microsoft. But with so much riding on these systems, there can be potentially disastrous consequences at a massive scale if something goes wrong.

A Dangerous Worm Is Eating Its Way Through Software Packages

Meanwhile, 15 New York officials were arrested by Immigration and Customs Enforcement and the New York Police Department this week in or around 26 Federal Plaza—where ICE detains people in what courts have ruled are unsanitary conditions.

Distillation Can Make AI Models Smaller and Cheaper

wired.com Amos Zeeberg 2025-09-20 11:00:00

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. The Chinese AI company DeepSeek released a chatbot earlier this year called R1, which drew a huge amount of attention. Most of it focused on the fact that a relatively small and unknown company said it had built a chatbot that rivaled the performance of those from the world’s most famous AI companies, but using a fraction of the computer power and cost. As a result, the stocks of many Western tech companies plummeted; Nvidia, which

Diminish Distractions by Setting Your iPhone to Gray Scale When You're Home

wired.com Justin Pot 2025-09-20 11:00:00

Phones are undeniably useful when you're out and about in the world. Directions, photos, music, messaging the people you're meeting up with, or even just scrolling while you're waiting for the bus—it's all great. The problem with phones, in my opinion, is when you're at home. Home is the place where you might rather spend your time reading a book, practicing an instrument, or messing around in the garden.

The electricity demand of AI data centers in particular could increase as much as 165 percent by 2030.

1Password Review (2025): Gold Standard Security

wired.com Jacob Roach 2025-09-20 13:00:00

Password managers are spotty on Android and iOS in general, and 1Password isn’t above that issue. I’d estimate somewhere around 10 to 15 percent of the fields I encounter on mobile just don’t register with 1Password, sending me out to the app to copy my password over manually. This is more of an issue with how apps categorize different fields and expose them to other apps running, and less of a 1Password-specific problem. 1Password at least attempts to get around this with linked apps.

Best Dog Beds (2025): For All Kinds of Dogs in All Kinds of Spaces

You know what gets me jazzed? Dogs. And some of the best dog beds, funny enough, often come from human-mattress brands that you may recognize. Now, if we were to consult the dogs themselves, I'm sure that they would be more than happy to tag along with you in your bed, on the couch, or any bed provided to them. As a professional mattress tester and certified sleep science coach, however, I can tell you that you may not be getting your best sleep when you let your dog sleep on your bed with you.

An ICE raid at an EV factory raises fears about US instability

theverge.com Abigail Bassett 2025-09-20 12:00:00

For years, foreign automakers have been sending their employees to the US to open advanced manufacturing and battery plants in states like South Carolina, Georgia, Tennessee, and Kentucky. These plants eventually employ thousands of American workers who build vehicles for both the US market and overseas. And they pump billions of dollars into the state and federal economies, providing jobs for Americans in more rural areas. So it didn’t raise any eyebrows when two South Korean companies, Hyunda

Starting Monday, the US government will get another crack at convincing a federal judge to break up Google, after a different judge decided to keep it intact despite finding it to be a monopolist. Lawyers for Google and the Justice Department will return to a federal courthouse in Alexandria, VA for a roughly two-week trial about how to restore competition to the advertising technology markets that Google illegally monopolized.

The wafer-thin iPhone Air is surprisingly strong

You’d be forgiven for assuming the iPhone Air would snap like a twig under pressure. It’s almost impossibly thin at just 5.6mm. But, its titanium frame is not only stronger than aluminum, it’s also more elastic. YouTuber JerryRigEverything demonstrates this with his usual bend test. While he’s able to get some slight bowing by pressing his thumbs into the center of the screen with all his might, it doesn’t crack and immediately returns to its original shape.
