Mishaal Rahman / Android Authority TL;DR Android 16 QPR1 Beta 3 arrived on July 17, and Google’s now following that up with a Beta 3.1 release. The full changelog mentions a ton of fixes. If all goes to plan, Android 16 QPR1 should be ready to hit stable right on schedule, on September 3. When it comes to Google hardware, August has arrived to usher in the latest lineup, and at this point we’re under a week away from the big Pixel 10 Made by Google event.

Should You Buy the iPhone 16E Now or Wait for the iPhone 17?

We are less than a month away from Apple announcing the rumored iPhone 17. We expect the iPhone 17 to be a replacement the iPhone 16 which launched 11 months ago. Apple's newest phone, the $599 iPhone 16E, launched in February and offers a unique appeal: Get some of the iPhone 16's best features (a 48-megapixel camera, iOS 18 and an A18 chip for Apple Intelligence) for $200 less than the $799 iPhone 16.

Galileo’s telescopes: Seeing is believing (2010)

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-11-19 05:33:43

Four hundred years ago, Galileo Galilei (1564-1642) was in a state of anxiety. In January, he had discovered four moons orbiting Jupiter. In March, he had published this and other remarkable discoveries made with his improved telescope in Sidereus Nuncius (‘The Starry Messenger’). But by the summer, he was becoming profoundly alarmed. He had offered philosophers and mathematicians in Venice, Padua, Florence, Pisa and Bologna the chance to look through his telescope and confirm his discoveries. S

Android 16 has been out for Pixels for a while now, and we’re already well on our way to Android 16 QPR1. Thanks to Google’s move to Android Canary, we know a fair bit of what’s coming with further updates to the Android platform, including Android 17. What we don’t know yet is what Android 17 would be called. We asked you what you think Android 17’s dessert codename would be, and most of you feel that Google should go with “Cheesecake” for Android 17. We received about 1900 votes on our survey

Anker's 10K Qi2 magnetic power bank drops to $60

A power bank with a wireless charging option is a very handy device for anyone who's typically on the go. It's probably worth having a fully charged one on hand in case of a power outage too. Anker makes some of our favorite power banks, and one with a Qi2 charging function and 10,000mAh capacity is currently on sale. You can snap it up for $60. That's a 25 percent discount on the list price of $80. It is also the lowest price for this model so far in 2025. The power bank is currently available

‘Gags the Clown’ Leans Into an Urban Legend That Maybe Wasn’t a Legend

gizmodo.com Cheryl Eddy 2025-12-06 20:42:29

It’s been nearly a decade since an outbreak of clown sightings frightened people, first in the U.S. and then later across the globe. A clown in the right context isn’t necessarily scary, but a random clown just appearing with no obvious purpose is horror movie material. And, in fact, some of the creepy clown epidemic of 2016 can be traced back to Gags the Clown, a found-footage indie that turned some clever grassroots marketing into a stunt that went viral. Gags the Clown came out in 2018, whic

The iPhone is capable of capturing plenty of varying scenes, and has been for many years. Ever since iPhone 11 Pro, we’ve had a triple camera array, allowing for ultrawide, wide, and telephoto shots. Despite this, many companies still offer third party lens solutions for your iPhone, allowing you to capture even more with your iPhone.
