The digital future of industrial and operational work

Across all these scenarios, IT fundamentals—like remote access, unified login systems, and interoperability across platforms—are being handled behind the scenes and consolidated into streamlined, user-friendly solutions. The way employees experience these tools, collectively known as the digital employee experience (DEX), can be a key component of achieving business outcomes: Deloitte finds that companies investing in frontline-focused digital tools see a 22 % boost in worker productivity, a dou

‘Doctor Who’ Will Keep the Fifteenth Doctor Alive with New Comics

Waters previously wrote the 2024 miniseries starring the Fifteenth Doctor, and in this new tale, he’s putting Fifteen and Belinda Chandra on an “unlikely team of allies” looking to infiltrate an alien prison holding “monsters an

Why government red tape is draining your phone’s battery potential

Robert Triggs / Android Authority You’re not alone if you’re pining for longer battery life from your latest smartphone. Despite emerging technologies like silicon-carbon cells, we’ve seemingly hit a ceiling just above the 5,000 mAh mark — at least for phones sold in the US and Europe. Meanwhile, glance over at models in China or India, and you’ll spot far larger batteries in otherwise identical handsets. For example, the new Nothing Phone 3 packs a 5,150mAh battery globally, but bumps that up

‘X-Files’ Composer Mark Snow Dies at Age 78

Mark Snow, the composer for a number of TV shows including The X-Files and its spinoff series Millennium, passed away on Friday, according to Variety. He was 78 and is the latest TV and film composer to pass away, preceded by Mission: Impossible’s Lalo Schifrin at the end of June. Born August 26, 1946 as Martin Fulterman, Snow began his career working with other composers to do background music for the 1975-1976 series The Rookies and 1976’s The Boy in the Plastic Bubble. Over the decades, his

Prime Video: The 29 Absolute Best Shows to Watch

Have you run out of TV series to tackle on Prime Video? Chances are, you're leaving some great options unwatched. You might know Amazon's streaming service best for shows like The Boys and Fallout -- and both are great -- but you shouldn't stop there if you have a subscription. The streamer is home to lesser-known series like The Devil's Hour and continues to add excellent options, such as the new college-set comedy Overcompensating. Note that Prime Video is ad-supported and charges an extra f

Laid-off workers should use AI to manage their emotions, says Xbox exec

“These are really challenging times, and if you’re navigating a layoff or even quietly preparing for one, you’re not alone and you don’t have to go it alone. I know these types of tools engender strong feelings in people, but I’d be remiss in not trying to offer the best advice I can under the circumstances. I’ve been experimenting with ways to use LLM Al tools (like ChatGPT or Copilot) to help reduce the emotional and cognitive load that comes with job loss. Here are some prompt ideas and use

Shonen Jump’s Comics App Now Lets You Read as Much Manga as You Want

Shonen Jump’s manga reading app has long been one of the best deals in digital comics—free recent chapters, speedy turnaround on official translations of some of the biggest manga in the world, and access to a vault spreading across some of the biggest series in comics for $3 a month. But now the app is removing one particular hurdle that makes it even better. This week Shonen Jump announced in an email to subscribers that it was removing its 100-chapter-a-day reading limit from the app, which

It’s been a pretty good year so far for the genre, with the ret

Tesla’s Numbers Are In, and They’re Not Good

Tesla’s struggles continue as the company reports another drop in vehicle deliveries, deepening concerns that its image problem, especially in Europe, is weighing heavily on consumer demand. In the second quarter of 2025, the electric vehicle giant delivered 443,956 vehicles, a 13.5 percent decline from the same period in 2024. Deliveries are Tesla’s key sales metric and are closely watched by investors and analysts alike. Nearly all of those deliveries — 97.3 percent — were for the company’s t

The Last of Us co-creator Neil Druckmann is stepping back from the HBO show

Neil Druckmann, co-creator of The Last of Us video game and co-showrunner on the HBO adaptation, will be stepping away from the television series moving forward. In a statement, Druckmann — who is also studio head at The Last of Us developer Naughty Dog — said the decision was made to focus on the studio’s upcoming games. “With work completed on season 2 and before any meaningful work starts on season 3, now is the time to transition my complete focus to Naughty Dog and its future projects, inc

Airport Lounges Are Sexy Again—if You Can Get In

Let’s be honest: A crowded airport lounge without a seat in sight is usually less appealing than an empty gate area. Over the past decade, an influx of travelers with club access has led to overcrowding, long waitlists, and a diminished (read: not luxurious) experience. However, a version of commercial air travel—often hidden from public view and inaccessible to even premium credit cardholders—has emerged. This more private, pre-flight experience is essential for the affluent business traveler,

Tesla deliveries fall for second quarter in a row

Tesla deliveries fall for second quarter in a row Musk has since left the role - but has publicly sparred with US President Donald Trump over a massive spending bill pushed by the White House. Tesla faces increasing competition from rivals, including China's BYD. Musk's controversial role as a government efficiency czar in the Trump administration has also been blamed for the plummeting numbers. The just over 384,000 vehicles it delivered between April and June represents the second quarterly

There’s a better Nothing Phone 3 variant, and you can’t buy it in the US

C. Scott Brown / Android Authority TL;DR Nothing has confirmed that the Indian version of the Nothing Phone 3 has a 5,500mAh battery. Other versions of the phone have a slightly smaller 5,150mAh battery. We’re guessing that this discrepancy is related to EU regulations regarding the transport of batteries. The Nothing Phone 3 finally launched yesterday, and it looks like a well-rounded Android phone with a polarizing design. However, it turns out that one regional variant has a bigger batter

Galaxy S26 could be getting not one, but two battery upgrades

Joe Maring / Android Authority TL;DR Samsung is reportedly exploring more advanced “battery protection circuits” for the Galaxy S26 series, along with the previously reported SUS CAN casing. These upgrades could leave room for Samsung to expand the batteries in capacity. However, these upgrades may still not be able to compensate for the lack of a more advanced silicon-carbon battery. Batteries on the latest Samsung Galaxy flagship phone have been a major reason for disappointment. With the

The 37 Best Shows on Apple TV+ Right Now (June 2025)

‘Fast & Furious’ Couldn’t Keep Driving Like This

Every franchise, if allowed to go on long enough, hits a wall sooner or later. Nothing lasts forever, as they say, and we’ve seen this eventuality come sooner or later in different flavors. But not many have hit the wall quite like Fast & Furious. One of the biggest, stupidest Hollywood franchises around is now slated to end its main run of movies in April 2027 with Fast XI. It’s an end that can’t come soon enough, honestly. Fast X’s biggest crime wasn’t being half a movie—though of summer 2023

I've been in tech for decades. Here are 10 ways my home lab keeps me sharp - and employable

Paul Taylor/Getty When I was a kid, my home lab consisted of test tubes and beakers, sodium bicarbonate (baking soda), acetic acid (vinegar), and the occasional boom, followed closely by the sound of my mom in the distance yelling, "David Allen Gewirtz, you stop that right now." When the scold transitioned from "David Gewirtz" to "David Allen Gewirtz," I knew I was in trouble. To be fair, nothing prepared my nontechnical mom and dad to raise a future engineer.

‘Leviathan’ Is a Steampunk Anime Soaring With Heart, Even if Its Animation Grounds It

While anime remakes and manga adaptations, along with the occasional original project, continue to dominate the medium, a quieter trend has begun to emerge: the adaptation of Western novels. The latest addition to this movement is Scott Westerfeld’s 2009 steampunk historical fiction novel, Leviathan, reimagined as a 3DCG anime by Studio Orange in partnership with Qubic Pictures of Star Wars: Visions fame. Though the 12-episode anime doesn’t quite recapture the visual splendor of the studio’s ear

Best Games of 2025 So Far: Death Stranding 2, Expedition 33, Assassin's Creed Shadows and More

At the start of the year, 2025 was going to be all about Grand Theft Auto 6, which had so much hype that players were already expecting it to win Game of the Year. That changed last month when Rockstar Games announced that its highly anticipated game would be pushed to 2026. Though this year might not have what could be the biggest game of the decade, 2025 so far has some great games from the most unlikely places.
