Tesla Makes a Huge Move to Appease Regulators

gizmodo.com Riley Gutiérrez Mcdermid 2025-11-19 23:01:50

Tesla appears to be bending to the will of regulators. In a visible sign of its shifting posture from daredevil innovation to cautious compliance, Tesla this week relocated its robotaxi safety monitors, employees who supervise the autonomous software’s performance and can take over the vehicle’s operation at any moment, from the passenger seat to the driver’s seat. Tesla’s Robotaxi service represents one of the company’s most ambitious and long-delayed projects. First teased by Chief Executiv

Every September, hundreds of thousands of visitors descend upon Berlin for IFA, one of the largest trade tech conferences in Europe. IFA heralds the unofficial start of Techtember, when companies launch products in anticipation of the holiday shopping season. For over 100 years, companies, financiers, and journalists have crossed the Spree and eaten cold liver sausage for breakfast, just to check out the latest innovations in consumer electronics.

PSA: Google’s new Pixel Flex Dual Port 67W charger isn’t the same everywhere

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-11-20 06:24:15

Robert Triggs / Android Authority TL;DR Google’s new Pixel Flex Dual Port 67W charger may be missing one feature depending on where you buy it. Users on Reddit point out that the charger’s prongs don’t fold as advertised on Google’s website and Amazon. The lack of foldable prongs may be limited to specific regions, though. Google’s new Pixel Flex Dual Port 67W charger is surely one of the best accessories you can buy for your Pixel 10 phone. The $59.99 USB-C fast charger uses proprietary tec

Another Pixel, another 911 failure: Pixel 10 users say emergency calls sound like screeches

Rita El Khoury / Android Authority TL;DR Pixel 10 series users report that they cannot reliably make 911 calls. The 911 call connects but only delivers garbled, incomprehensible audio, described as “shrill electronic screeches.” Google’s Pixel series has had a long history of not connecting 911 calls. This bug is technically different, but the end result is the same. Google’s Pixel lineup has an unfortunate history of being unable to make 911 calls, a statement that doesn’t incite confidence

5 reasons I’d buy the Galaxy Tab S11 over the S11 Ultra

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-11-20 09:00:47

C. Scott Brown / Android Authority It’s that time of the year when Samsung updates its premium tablet lineup alongside launching a new FE phone. The Galaxy Tab S11 series is out now, but this time it looks a little different. There’s no Plus or Pro model to speak of — just the standard Galaxy Tab S11 and its uber-packed, equally uber-expensive Ultra sibling. The Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra does give you a few extras besides that massive screen, but if you ask me, I’d stick with the standard model. He

People Are Back-Flipping Off of Waymo’s Robotaxis

gizmodo.com Riley Gutiérrez Mcdermid 2025-11-20 09:30:17

In a bizarre (or hilarious) late-night episode that underscored public unease with autonomous vehicles, several men climbed onto stalled Waymo robotaxis in San Francisco’s Marina District and began attacking them. They then started sitting and climbing on them, and are one point began doing back flips off the driverless cars while a crowd cheered. City police eventually cleared the scene, but the incident highlights growing tensions over deployments of robotaxis in urban areas. So what happen

These are cool, but if you want true performance and an overall premium experience, you can’t beat the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra.

Unix Conspiracy (1991)

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-11-16 15:48:12

[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

When The Conjuring was released in 2013, it felt like a nostalgic nod to eerie 1970s horror movies like The Changeling or The Manitou. From its simple opening title card -- yellow text on a black background -- to its relatively little gore and slow build of suspense, The Conjuring was a breath of fresh air. It arrived at a time when the horror genre was rampant with gruesome movies like Saw (which was also directed by Wan) and Hostel. The Conjuring kick-started not just a film franchise, but a
