Source: AppleTrack This fall, an ultra-thin iPhone 17 Air will join Apple’s product lineup. But unsurprisingly, that radically thin design will likely come with some battery compromises. Here’s what the latest leak says about iPhone 17 Air battery capacity. iPhone 17 Air battery ‘does not exceed 3000mAh,’ per leaker Back in May, leaker yeux1122 claimed that the iPhone 17 Air’s battery capacity would be lower than some might have expected.

Last Updated: 30th June 2025 Generative AI has been the fastest moving technology I have seen in my lifetime. Its also happens to be terribly misunderstood. We have already seen large companies and even governments ship dysfunctional or even dangerous AI products. Sufficiently uninformed people misunderstand how to apply AI with concretely negative consequences. The most common errors of misunderstanding are either underestimation (“it’s all hype that will blow over”) or overestimation (“I do

techcrunch.com Zack Whittaker 2026-01-13 17:45:07

Security researchers say they have caught a surveillance company in the Middle East exploiting a new attack capable of tricking phone operators into disclosing a cell subscriber’s location. The attack relies on bypassing security protections that carriers have put in place to protect intruders from accessing SS7, or Signaling System 7, a private set of protocols used by the global phone carriers to route subscribers’ calls and text messages around the world.

Apple sues YouTuber who leaked iOS 26’s new “Liquid Glass” software redesign

arstechnica.com Unknown 2026-01-14 03:23:02

In January, YouTuber Jon Prosser posted a video to his Front Page Tech channel that claimed to be “your very first look at iOS 19,” the operating system that Apple would announce as iOS 26 a few months later. Though Prosser claimed he “could not show the real video of what I saw” because he wanted to protect his source, the rest of the video showed a mock-up for a redesigned version of the Camera app, which ended up being a preview of the company-wide “Liquid Glass” redesign that Apple would sh

Lettuce Grow Indoor Farmstand Review: Grow Your Own

Upon receiving the Lettuce Grow Indoor Farmstand in the mail, I did not expect that I’d be enjoying some tea before I’d even unwrapped all the parts. “Is that … Zooey Deschanel? With a Dollar Tree Property Brother?” my husband asked, peering over my shoulder as I unpacked various tubes and parts. And indeed, among the boxes was a glossy handout of a slightly younger-looking Zooey, standing with a man who did vaguely resemble her current husband, Jonathan Scott, of Property Brothers fame.

Ordering wine at a restaurant shouldn't be a stressful occasion, but there is plenty of language and ritual associated with wine that can feel foreign to the casual drinker. One such practice is the obligatory tasting after the bottle is opened and before it's poured for you and your guests. Despite what you -- and many others -- might think, this is not really to determine if you like the wine, but rather, to ensure the wine is not spoiled or "corked."

People have been worrying about U.S. debt basically ever since there even was a U.S. “The accumulation of debts is a most fearful evil,” Thomas Jefferson wrote in 1787. At the time, U.S. debt was around $40 million. Today, it’s closer to $40 trillion. At the same time, the U.S. economy is bigger and more powerful than Jefferson could have ever imagined, and things are looking pretty good: unemployment is near record lows, inflation is under control… so what’s the problem? “Part of the problem i
