CarPlay in iOS 26 enables ‘video in the car’, but there’s a catch

9to5mac.com Zac Hall 2025-11-22 05:00:00

Apple is making a major U-turn with CarPlay after a decade of not allowing video playback. Starting with iOS 26, Apple will allow apps to display video through the CarPlay screen while parked. Support, however, is a big question mark for now. The new capability falls under the name ‘video in the car’ and is mentioned on Apple’s developer website for CarPlay: AirPlay video in the car enables people to watch their favorite videos from iPhone right on their CarPlay display when they aren’t drivi

21 years later, Meta still hasn't given up on the Facebook 'poke'

engadget.com Unknown 2025-11-22 03:04:46

Meta currently has lots of priorities Mark Zuckerberg likely never would have imagined back in the early days of Facebook. The company has pivoted from social networking to the metaverse and, most recently, to AI. But somehow, one of its earliest — and most useless — features has not only survived but is apparently getting a revamp. I'm talking, of course, about the poke, which Meta is once again trying to revive. The company is making the storied feature easier to find by adding pokes back to

TL;DR Sourcing data directly from disk IS faster than caching in memory. I brought receipts. Because hardware got wider but not faster, the old methods don't get you there. You need new tools to use what is scaling and avoid what isn't.

I then asserted, without proof, that sourcing data from disk can be faster than from memory. What follows is the proof.

[ITS] According to a conspiracy theory long popular among ITS and TOPS-20 fans, Unix's growth is the result of a plot, hatched during the 1970s at Bell Labs, whose intent was to hobble AT&T's competitors by making them dependent upon a system whose future evolution was to be under AT&T's control. This would be accomplished by disseminating an operating system that is apparently inexpensive and easily portable, but also relatively unreliable and insecure (so as to require continuing upgrades from
