These little robots are changing the way solar farms are built, saving time and money

cnbc.com Diana Olick 2025-11-13 06:31:33

The data for manual surveying is uploaded into the Civ software, then the operator chooses the area they want to mark and presses go. The robot does the rest, saving both time and money. "Our secret sauce and our core technology is actually in the navigation and the geospatial -- being able to literally mark coordinates within less than a quarter inch, which is very, very difficult in an uneven terrain, outdoor surfaces, and out in the desert," said Tom Yeshurun, CEO of Civ Robotics.

Switching from iPhone to Pixel 10? It’ll soon be easier to transfer your eSIM (APK teardown)

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-11-13 08:00:04

TL;DR Google is bringing a new feature to transfer eSIM from iPhone to Android. The feature is expected to work both ways, allowing a seamless migration of profiles. It only works with devices running iOS 26, and is unlikely to work with iPhones running older firmware. Google just unveiled the Pixel 10 series officially. While the new phones bring some welcome improvements like Pixelsnap, a more efficient chipset, and a host of new AI features, there’s one grim change that could rile up folks

Resident Evil Requiem feels very familiar, but it's so well made that I respect the hell out of it

engadget.com Unknown 2025-11-13 08:00:22

For nearly 30 years, developer Capcom has been redefining its particular brand of survival horror for the Resident Evil series. Despite its tone shifting between action-horror games and more pure horror entries, where players face down grotesque moments with scant resources, the series still manages to place players in tense encounters that define the series' against-all-odds approach to horror. And with the upcoming Resident Evil Requiem — or RE9 — appears to continue the series' current moment

Microplastics are all around us all the time. While these microscopic bits of plastic were once an issue for ocean pollution, now they're all around us. From kitchen tools to food storage, microplastics have infected our world. This means that each day, you are probably ingesting thousands of tiny plastic particles without even realizing it.

Pixel 10 vs Pixel 9: Here’s why I’m tempted to upgrade

Autumn isn’t usually the time to compare a newly launched phone to its direct predecessor. The upgrades over a device from a year ago are typically so minimal that one should stick to their existing phone for a couple more years before considering an upgrade. But the new Pixel 10 is a little different this time around. The Pixel 10 is getting improvements in nearly every single department, making it feel like a proper generational leap.
