Airbuds is the music social network Apple and Spotify wish they had built

techcrunch.com Sarah Perez 2025-09-26 10:36:38

A new social network has been quietly blowing up with Gen Z and younger, and it’s not from Meta. San Francisco-based Airbuds offers a mobile, social app that lets people express themselves through their music. Users can share what they’re streaming with friends through a smartphone widget that works with a range of streaming services. On Wednesday, Airbuds is announcing its raise of $5 million in funding from early-stage venture capital firm Seven Seven Six, founded by Reddit co-founder Alexis

This PS5 Update Lets DualSense Controllers Pair With Multiple Devices at the Same Time

cnet.com See Full Bio 2025-09-26 14:03:25

All you PlayStation 5 players can now pair your wireless DualSense controllers with up to four devices at a time and toggle between them. For some time, you've been able to pair your DualSense controllers not just with PS5s and other PlayStation consoles, but also with PCs, Macs, smartphones and other Bluetooth devices. But that pairing could happen with only one device at a time; using a different device with a DualSense required pairing all over again. That changes now, with system update 25

Inside Trumpworld’s Reality Distortion Field

wired.com Jake Lahut 2025-09-26 14:04:52

Before a suspect was even in custody, Trumpworld was on a wartime footing. Charlie Kirk had been fatally shot. Graphic video of the assassination hit terminal velocity online. Several sources of mine were close friends of Kirk, and when I spoke to them last week, it was clear this incident had changed the level of aggression with which they were willing to pursue a crackdown on their boss’s perceived enemies. “I think we want to confront violent left wing rhetoric. We want PEACE, and unity,” o

Firefox 143 for Android to introduce DoH

news.ycombinator.com Neha Kochar 2025-09-26 17:14:04

All web browsing starts with a DNS query to find the IP address for the desired service or website. For much of the internet’s history, this query is sent in the clear. DNS-over-HTTPS (DoH) plugs this privacy leak by encrypting the DNS messages, so no one on the network, not your internet service provider or a free public WiFi provider, can eavesdrop on your browsing. In 2020, Firefox became the first browser to roll out DoH by default, starting in the United States and in 2023, we announced

With Lumo, Proton thinks it can carve a place at the AI table

Proton released Lumo — its privacy-focused chatbot built on open-source models — in mid-July, and, following an update in August that addressed some early issues, I find myself using it more often than ChatGPT or Claude.

You absolutely should not buy Apple’s iPhone Air MagSafe battery pack

Apple released its thinnest phone yet last week, the iPhone Air, and revealed the new iPhone Air MagSafe Battery alongside it. The existence of a specially-made battery pack wasn’t a big surprise to me, because there had been rumors of the iPhone Air for months leading up to the event. Everyone was prepared for the thinnest iPhone ever to make some battery life sacrifices to achieve its svelte design.

What we carry says a lot about what’s important to us, who we are, and who we aspire to be. This fall, it’s worth examining what you bring with you every day and thinking about how you could refine it. Perhaps you carry too much, and a utility pouch that’s just a bit bigger than a wallet could reduce (or at least help organize) the clutter in your pockets or purse. Or perhaps you want to be more prepared for what the day could bring, with compact tools like a notepad, pen, and maybe a multitool.

I was a thin phone skeptic, but after holding the iPhone Air…I get it

Aamir Siddiqui / Android Authority Apple launched the iPhone 17 series last week.

iPhone Air review: The thinnest iPhone ever, but at what cost?

9to5mac.com Chance Miller 2025-09-27 02:00:21

Every so often, Apple makes a design decision that draws a line in the sand. One that feels like a delineation between one era and the next. The iPhone Air is that kind of device. It’s strikingly thin and sets a new standard for how an iPhone should feel in your hand. The iPhone Air is also an example of the compromises that come with pushing the design boundaries of a form factor. The question is whether it correctly strikes that balance.

iPhone Air review: Thinness with purpose

The iPhone Air is a device with shorter battery life, fewer cameras and a price tag that’s $200 more than a base iPhone 17. Sure, it’s got a bigger screen and it's unbelievably sleek, but no matter how you slice it, that value proposition doesn’t make sense. At least on paper. That’s because as soon as you hold an iPhone Air, you instantly get a sense that this handset represents much more than a simple quest for thinness.

iPhone Air Review: A Magic Sheet of Glass With Expected Tradeoffs

Turns out an iPhone can be too thin and too light—maybe. That’s what I realized as I picked up the iPhone Air off the ground and inspected it for damage. Moments earlier, Apple’s thinnest iPhone ever—a 5.6mm glass and titanium metal sandwich that makes the previous thinnest iPhone, the 6.9mm iPhone 6, look fat by comparison—had flown out of my hands and fallen onto its screen, just as I pulled it out of my pocket.

Apple iPhone Air Review: Better Than Expected

The iPhone 17 Pro felt like a brick. I had just gotten used to the featherweight feel of Apple's new iPhone Air after several days of use, but it was time to switch to the iPhone 17 Pro. Suddenly, I didn't want to let the Air go. It's amazing how a couple of grams and a slimmer profile can drastically change the feel of a phone. There isn’t much to grab on the edges, but the Air's design is whimsical and somewhat paradoxical. It feels like a twig that can snap in a heartbeat, but the sturdy tit
