Aardman’s Pokémon show is a delightful-looking romp that follows Sirfetch'd and Pichu

We knew that Aardman, the animation studio behind Wallace & Gromit, was prepping a Pokémon show , but now we have some juicy details and actual footage. Pokémon Tales: The Misadventures of Sirfetch’d and Pichu, as the name suggests, follows the sword-wielding Sirfetch'd and the baby pre-evolution of Pikachu. It looks extremely charming, as one would expect from Aardman. The trailer is on the shorter side, but shows the dynamic duo getting involved in some cutesy shenanigans as an oblivious Wool

Leaked Documents Show xAI Employees Were Alarmed by Something They Were Asked to Do at Elon Musk's AI Startup

Earlier this year, more than 200 staffers at Elon Musk's AI startup xAI were asked to have their faces recorded while speaking to their coworkers. According to internal documents and Slack messages obtained by Business Insider, some employees were taken aback after being asked to take part in a project called "Skippy," the goal of which was to train the company's Hitler-loving AI chatbot, Grok, on their facial expressions. It remains unclear whether project Skippy was in any way related to xAI

Why I love my little round Dell USB-C mobile adapter

Barbara Krasnoff is officially the reviews editor for The Verge, but although she has done a great deal of reviewing in her time, she doesn’t tend to do a lot of it in her current position. “I was originally hired here to write and edit to-do articles,” she explains. “Now, I spend most of my time editing, overseeing various projects, and coaxing staffers to write about their favorite stuff.” Where did you first hear about the Dell mobile adapter? I didn’t actually hear about it — I saw it at a

Google Drive’s new tool makes it a breeze to skip right to the good part of your video uploads

Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority TL;DR Google Drive will now show thumbnail previews when hovering over the video progress bar. The feature will be available to all users on the web version of Drive, but it only works on newly uploaded videos. It’s rolling out to Rapid Release domains starting today, with a wider rollout starting on August 20. Scrubbing through a video in Google Drive often meant dragging the progress bar blindly and hoping for the best. That’s finally changing, with Goog

After Fight With Musk, Trump Reportedly Ordered Review of Government SpaceX Contracts

Now that SpaceX CEO Elon Musk and president Donald Trump are no longer seeing eye to eye, it sounds like the White House is working to undercut the richest man in the world's revenue from Washington. As the Wall Street Journal reports, Trump aides initiated a review of SpaceX contracts with the federal government to identify potential waste — pointed scrutiny not unlike the so-called Department of Government Efficiency helmed by Musk himself prior to his ousting from the Trump administration.

I use both YouTube Music and Spotify, and for good reason

Andy Walker / Android Authority For many, the choice between Spotify and YouTube Music is a major dilemma. But for me, it’s not a question of picking one over the other. Unlike most people who stick to a single platform, I seamlessly integrate both into my daily routine, especially when relying on their free plans. But even when I opt for premium features, I often subscribe to one service while still actively using the other. Why this dual-platform approach? It all comes down to their distinct

Is Your Iced Coffee Making You Dehydrated in the Summer Heat? I Asked the Experts

As the summer sun beats down, we should all stay hydrated, as dehydration can increase our risk of heat exhaustion and heat stroke. However, when I saw the National Weather Service in Las Vegas advising residents across parts of California, Nevada and Arizona to stop drinking caffeine in extreme heat to prevent dehydration, I wondered if that was taking things too far. To find out whether caffeine actually causes dehydration to the point where you need to put your iced coffee down, I consulted

This $20 Item Is the Thing I Buy First for My Kitchen When I Move

As a former girl scout I believe in always leaving a place better than I found it. As a food writer and former culinary school student, this entails always leaving behind a certain feature in any kitchen where I've lived. (As a former NYC resident, yes, there were numerous kitchens.) It's the first thing I buy for a new kitchen, without even needing to take measurements. Where I put it might be up for grabs, but it's guaranteed to be going somewhere. I'd sooner live without a microwave or a (*g

Elon Musk-Founded Brain Implant Startup Says It’s a ‘Disadvantaged’ Business Despite Being Worth $9 Billion

Elon Musk, the rightwing culture warrior waging a “civilization-saving” battle against the “woke mind virus,” apparently isn’t above taking advantage of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs when it serves his business purposes. Neuralink, the $9 billion brain implant startup that Musk founded, recently characterized itself as a “small disadvantaged business” in a federal filing with the Small Business Administration. The SBA website notes that Neuralink attested in its filings that i

MagSafe Monday: KraftGeek’s JustTap Tripod is perfect for Continuity Camera

At first glance, the KraftGeek JustTap Tripod might seem like it’s only useful for content creation, but in my testing, it’s a lot more than that. It’s obviously great for mobile creators who don’t want to worry about whether their mount fits their case, but I also found it super useful for getting your iPhone at the perfect angle when using it as a Mac webcam. Some of my favorite gear Abode Home Security System Abode is the best home security system and includes compatibility with HomeKit. Ma

FAA Allows SpaceX to Drop Starship Rocket Bits on Sacred Hawaiian Island

Elon Musk’s obsession with colonizing Mars is polluting Earth. As SpaceX seeks to ramp up its launches of Starship, it’s also expanding its splashdown area where pieces of the rocket are allowed to litter the Pacific Ocean. A recent expansion threatens marine wildlife surrounding a sacred island in native Hawaiian tradition. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) approved SpaceX’s request to rain down debris in the waters surrounding Mokumanamana, an uninhabited island in Northwestern Hawaii

Galaxy Buds 3 FE leak reveals a surprisingly premium design

Ryan Haines / Android Authority TL;DR A reportedly leaked image shows the Galaxy Buds 3 FE look nearly identical to the Buds 3 Pro The FE model appears to use the Pro’s stemmed design with silicone tips, rather than the open AirPods-style Buds 3. Samsung has yet to confirm specs or a release date, and the leaked image has now been removed from X. Samsung may be working on a more affordable set of Fan Edition wireless earbuds, but you’d be hard-pressed to tell from the design. A newly leaked

Kevin Feige Unveils Some of the MCU’s Big Next Moves

The grind never stops at Marvel Studios, and Kevin Feige has gone and revealed some juicy nuggets about what is and isn’t to come in the MCU. The longtime producer recently talked to press about Marvel’s next moves, and he was naturally asked about Blade. We’re now on the six-year anniversary of Mahershala Ali being announced for the role, and he recently told press to pester Marvel about the film’s infamously troubled production. To Deadline and other outlets, Feige confirmed that yes, there h

The daily life of a medieval king

Have you wondered what a medieval king did on a typical day? Thanks to Christine de Pizan, we have an account of what daily life was like for King Charles V of France. Around the year 1404, Christine de Pizan completed her work, Livre des faits et bonnes mœurs du sage roy Charles V. It was both a biography of the French king who reigned from 1364 to 1380 and a guide to how an ideal monarch should live and rule. Christine had a good vantage point to tell this story.

Act surprised: Apple is soon expected to formally kick off development of iOS 27. This year, Apple will have a big task: updating the iOS experience in preparation for its most radical new iPhone yet.

What birdsong and back ends can teach us about magic

Teller describes the underlying principle like so: “Sometimes magic is just someone spending more time on something than anyone else might reasonably expect.” Allen Pike: An Unreasonable Amount of Time And if you look at it from the other direction, that means that you - yes, you personally 🫵 - have the opportunity to produce magical experiences without any “secret sauce” beyond your willingness to put in the work.

Simulating hand-drawn motion with SVG filters

Published on July 09, 2025 Ever wondered how cartoons create that hand-drawn “jitter” effect? I recently watched an ARTE documentary about Neapolitan pizza and was fascinated by the animated illustrations (drawn in simple shapes and plain colors) that accompanied the segment where the recipe and its ingredients were presented. The illustrations were static, but they had a subtle animation effect that made them look like they were moving slightly. See for example in this short clip, where you c

Agents built from alloys

This spring, we had a simple and, to my knowledge, novel idea that turned out to dramatically boost the performance of our vulnerability detection agents at XBOW. On fixed benchmarks and with a constrained number of iterations, we saw success rates rise from 25% to 40%, and then soon after to 55%. The principles behind this idea are not limited to cybersecurity. They apply to a large class of agentic AI setups. Let me share. XBOW’s Challenge XBOW is an autonomous pentester. You point it at yo
