I didn’t think I’d like any of these Pixel 10 features, but Google proved me wrong

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-10-13 16:00:41

If I’m honest, Google made me a little nervous when it introduced the Pixel 10 series. Not because I thought it was about to ruin the things I love about its flagships, but because it seemed like Google was starting to run out of ideas for clever software features. Everything it hung its hat on, from Magic Cue to the Daily Hub, seemed like a careful copy of someone else’s idea, and it took some of the wind out of my sails. I should have known better. Yes, the Pixel 10 series does have a familia

If you're looking to gift an affordable outdoor camera that doesn't require frequent battery replacements, the Blink Outdoor 4 is a great option. CNET's Tyler Lacoma says, "From the 1080p resolution and Alexa support to the two-way audio and motion detection, the Outdoor 4 does a little of everything in a compact, weather-resistant design. But where it really shines is that extended battery life." The handy Blink app also lets you check battery status -- a lifesaver, since you’ll probably forge

Threat actors abuse X’s Grok AI to spread malicious links

bleepingcomputer.com Unknown 2025-10-14 08:01:34

Threat actors are using Grok, X's built-in AI assistant, to bypass link posting restrictions that the platform introduced to reduce malicious advertising. As discovered by Guardio Labs' researcher Nati Tal, mavertisers often run sketchy video ads containing adult content baits and avoid including a link to the main body to avoid being blocked by X. Instead, they hide it in the small "From:" metadata field under the video card, which apparently isn't scanned by the social media platform for mal

No place in children's hands: <16s in UK to be banned from buying energy drinks

news.ycombinator.com Denis Campbell 2025-10-15 20:29:42

Under-16s in England will be banned from buying energy drinks such as Red Bull and Monster because they fuel obesity, cause sleep problems and leave them unable to concentrate. Health experts, teaching unions and dentists welcomed the ban and said it would boost children and young people’s health. It fulfils a pledge Labour included in its manifesto for last year’s general election. “How can we expect children to do well at school if they have the equivalent of a double espresso in their syste
