Porsche and Audi's EVs can now recharge on any Tesla Supercharger in North America

Starting September 9, Porsche and Audi will be the latest non-Tesla brands to utilize the Supercharger network. The two automakers announced that some of their owners will get adapters that allow them to charge via the NACS port, which Tesla developed and opened up to other automakers. The rollout comes after the Volkswagen Group, which owns both Porsche and Audi, announced that it would implement NACS compatibility for Volkswagen, Audi, Porsche and Scout Motors in December 2023.

‘Witch Hat Atelier’ Anime Gets Delayed Into 2026

Bad news for anyone looking forward to watching the anime adaptation of Witch Hat Atelier: it’s leaving 2026 and coming sometime next year. Animation studio Bug Films announced the delay on Twitter, explaining it needed more time to “deliver the charm of the work with even higher quality. All staff are working hard on the production, and we sincerely apologize for this disappointing news to everyone who has been looking forward to the broadcast.” Before now, Bug was pretty quiet about it since

Paper Finds Earth May Have Been Terraformed by "Advanced Extraterrestrials"

It's one of the most longstanding questions in biology: how did life first arise? Research on the topic abounds, but there's no one accepted answer. And according to one new paper, the chances that life emerged by pure chance on Earth are so slim that it's possible that our planet was instead seeded by "advanced extraterrestrials." While Imperial College London professor of systems biology Robert Endres concedes that the emergence of life still could've been the result of chemical reactions mo

Google’s plan to restrict sideloading on Android has a potential escape hatch for users

Mishaal Rahman / Android Authority Last week, Google dropped a bombshell: The company plans to verify the identity of all developers who distribute apps for Android, even those outside the Play Store. Starting next year, if a developer chooses not to verify their identity, Android will prevent their apps from being installed on certified devices (ie. devices with Google Mobile Services). This news sent shockwaves through the enthusiast community, with many criticizing Google for transforming An

Report: Gavin and Stacey sitcom stars sign up to headline new Apple TV+ series

The stars of Gavin and Stacey, one of the most popular BBC series in the UK, are set to write, produce and act in a new Apple TV+ drama, according to the Daily Mail. James Corden and Ruth Jones have apparently signed a deal with Apple on a new series set to go into production next year.

The hardware announcement will take place on September 9 at 1PM ET. The newest phones will come equipped with the latest iOS 26 features preinstalled, along with any new features Apple reveals that day. So what can we expect to see?

Apple plans to release iPhone 17 and more at the 'Awe Dropping' event September 9: Here's everything to expect

We're now just days away from the Apple's September 9 event, where the company is all but certain to unveil the iPhone 17 line. This year's theme of "Awe dropping," which was featured in Apple's invitations to the media sent on August 26 doesn't reveal much by way of clues, though some think the heat-mapped Apple logo is indicative of better thermal cooling in the new models. But more importantly, we already know how to watch the Apple iPhone 17 event itself: The keynote will be livestreamed on

Apple faces lawsuit over alleged use of pirated books for AI training

Two authors have filed a lawsuit against Apple, accusing the company of infringing on their copyright by using their books to train its artificial intelligence model without their consent. The plaintiffs, Grady Hendrix and Jennifer Roberson, claimed that Apple used a dataset of pirated copyrighted books that include their works for AI training. They said in their complaint that Applebot, the company's scraper, can "reach 'shadow libraries'" made up of unlicensed copyrighted books, including (on

The Apple Smart Home Is Almost Here: 4 Rumored Devices Could Show Up This Month

It's a matter of when, not if. Apple's smart home is coming, with multiple reports saying the tech giant is ready to release its own line of smart devices and home security products. While it's a little early, Apple's important "awe dropping event" on Sept. 9 could showcase the first of its big home expansion. We already expect to see the new iPhone 17, a new Apple Watch and an AirPod announcement. Here's what could happen if there's a surprise home tech release, too, from table robots to home

Premiere Pro for Free: How Adobe's New iPhone App Will Let You Edit Videos at No Cost

Thanks to social media apps like TikTok and Instagram, everyone is an video editor these days. And soon you won't have to sit down at a laptop to use one of the most popular video editors on the market.

You can preorder the app now in the Apple App Store, with an Android app currently in development. The iOS app should feel familiar to Premiere users, with its multitrack timeline and pre

Will Apple Launch AirPods Pro 3 This Year? Here's What We're Expecting

It's looking like we won't see a new version of the AirPods Max this year, but predictions still dictate that there could indeed be AirPods Pro 3 at Apple's iPhone 17 launch event on Tuesday. Apple last updated its flagship AirPods Pro buds in 2022 and released two all-new versions of Apple's open earbuds -- the AirPods 4 and AirPods 4 with Active Noise Canceling -- at last year's iPhone 16 event. While there's no guarantee we'll get the AirPods Pro 3 this year, Apple has announced a new model

The Apple Watch Series 11 Could Share the Stage at Next Week's Event

All eyes are on Apple's September 9 "Awe Dropping" event, where a fresh batch of Apple Watches is expected to take center stage alongside the new iPhone 17 lineup. While the Series 11 will almost certainly headline, Apple may have already tipped its hand on the next Ultra. Imagery found in the iOS 26 public beta (first spotted by MacRumors ) shows display specs that don't match any current model, and the two-year update cycle only strengthens the case that the rugged Apple Watch Ultra 3 is on th

Google is sitting on a gold mine of custom maps and is doing nothing with it

Andy Walker / Android Authority I recently rediscovered a Google Maps feature that I completely forgot existed, but you can’t really blame me. If you frequent travel subreddits and forums, you’ll likely be familiar with My Maps, Google’s custom map creation platform. However, if you’ve only ever experienced Google Maps on an Android phone, I’d be surprised if you’ve heard of it, unless you’ve accidentally scrolled to the bottom of the You tab. My Maps is an obscure but powerful tool for creati

The best Apple Watch deals live now

Wellness tech is the way of the future, and Apple is an excellent choice for a smartwatch investment. Not only does Apple offer some top features like monitoring health, tracking sleep, and recording workouts, but these watches are a hot buy thanks to their seamless integration with the Apple ecosystem. Users can reply to texts, take calls, and use Apple Pay, all from a wrist. Also: Apple's iPhone 17 event is less than a week away. Here's how to watch (and what to expect) If you're eyeing a wa

Developing a Space Flight Simulator in Clojure

Developing a Space Flight Simulator in Clojure In 2017 I discovered the free of charge Orbiter 2016 space flight simulator which was proprietary at the time and it inspired me to develop a space flight simulator myself. I prototyped some rigid body physics in C and later in GNU Guile and also prototyped loading and rendering of Wavefront OBJ files. I used GNU Guile (a Scheme implementation) because it has a good native interface and of course it has hygienic macros. Eventually I got interested

Horrible Things Are Happening at Antarctic Facilities

If you think your job is tough, just be glad you haven’t had to do a tour at an Antarctic research base. A horrifying new workplace survey by the US National Science Foundation is raising alarms about a terrible HR crisis unfolding on the white continent. In particular, the report found that sexual assault, sexual harassment, and stalking were regular facts of life for those stationed on remote research stations. The confidential survey was open to all 2,760 US Antarctic Program (USAP) employe

Two authors accuse Apple of illegally training AI models on pirated books

A new proposed class action suit was filed in the federal court in Northern California today, accusing Apple of illegally using books to train its AI models. Here are the details. Authors base the accusation on Apple’s own documents As reported by Reuters, authors Grady Hendrix and Jennifer Robertson are accusing Apple of using a pirated dataset, in which their work was included. From the lawsuit: “But Apple is building part of this new enterprise using Books3, a dataset of pirated copyrighte

Pixel 10 vs. Pixel 10 Pro vs. Pixel 10 Pro XL: How Google's Latest Phones Compare

Google's new Pixel 10 phones are here, and they boast a handful of spec upgrades over their predecessors, as well as more AI features. The three models look very similar to last year's Pixel 9 phones. There's a standard Pixel 10, a higher-spec Pixel 10 Pro and a large Pixel 10 Pro XL. There are still some differentiators between the baseline and Pro models, but that lead is shrinking with more top-level features trickling down. All in all, they're powerful handsets that rank among the year's b

Silicon Valley’s most powerful alliance just got stronger

Eddy Cue deserves a raise. As the executive overseeing Apple’s services division, he’s highly incentivized to protect the tens of billions of dollars a year that Google pays to be the default search engine in Safari. “I’ve lost a lot of sleep thinking about it,” he said from the witness stand during Google’s antitrust trial earlier this year. Luckily for Cue, his court testimony appears to have had a significant impact on Judge Amit Mehta, who ruled this week that Google’s default payments to

This Laptop Handles AI Like a Pro -- Without the Premium Price Tag

CNET's key takeaways Laptop prices are on the rise -- and the more they increase, the better Acer's Aspire 14 AI looks. The Acer Aspire 14 AI is available for $500 at Costco $628 at Amazon The Intel Lunar Lake CPU offers good performance for the price and long battery life. The display and design won't wow you. When I reviewed it in April, it cost $700 at Costco and was the cheapest Copilot Plus PC I had reviewed. Fast-forward two months, and a Labor Day deal has brought that price down to

FTC commissioner questions status of Snap AI chatbot complaint: 'People deserve answers'

U.S. Federal Trade Commission Commissioner Rebecca Slaughter raised questions on Friday about the status of an artificial intelligence chatbot complaint against Snap that the agency referred to the Department of Justice earlier this year. In January, the FTC announced that it would refer a non-public complaint regarding allegations that Snap's My AI chatbot posed potential "risks and harms" to young users and said it would refer the suit to the DOJ "in the public interest."

iPhone 17 Pro will drop titanium for aluminum, and this might be why

Among the various rumors about Apple’s new iPhone 17 lineup, one of the most curious centers on design materials. Apple will reportedly drop titanium from the iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max in favor of aluminum, and now we might finally know why. Aluminum iPhone 17 Pro design may provide two key benefits Mark Gurman writes at Bloomberg: One other major change to the iPhone 17 Pro and 17 Pro Max design will be a reversal: moving back to an aluminum frame after switching to titanium in 2023 with the
