Pixel 10 benchmarks show how little ground Google’s Tensor G5 has gained

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-10-22 03:00:32

Now that we finally know what Google’s new Tensor G5 processor is made of, it’s about time we compare it against the best in the business. For today’s benchmarking session, I’ve grabbed rival handsets to compare against the more budget-friendly $799 Pixel 10 and the top-of-the-line, $1,199 Pixel 10 Pro XL. I don’t think anyone has particularly high hopes that the Pixel 10 series is going to contend for the performance crown. Google is far more focused on AI and features than traditional perform

Intel Patents 'Software Defined Supercore'

news.ycombinator.com Anton Shilov 2025-10-22 02:44:56

Intel has patented a technology it calls 'Software Defined Supercore' (SDC) that enables software to fuse the capabilities of multiple cores to assemble a virtual ultra-wide 'supercore' capable of improving single-thread performance, provided that it has enough parallel work. If the technology works as it is designed to, then Intel's future CPUs could offer faster single-thread performance in select applications that can use SDC. For now, this is just a patent which may or may not become a reali

Enforcing Australia's social media ban on kids is possible but contains risks, report says

Enforcing Australia's social media ban on kids is possible but contains risks, report says Though the move is popular with many parents, experts have raised concerns over data privacy and the accuracy of age verification technology. Under the new laws, platforms must take "reasonable steps" to prevent Australian children from creating accounts on their sites, and deactivate existing ones. The government says its ban, which comes into effect in December, is designed to limit the harmful impact

I tried gaming on the Pixel 10’s new GPU and… it’s fine

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-10-21 23:00:52

While there’s plenty to unpack with the Pixel 10 series and its new Tensor G5 processor, one of the biggest hardware changes this year is the adoption of a brand new GPU architecture. Google has switched from its long-running use of ARM’s Mali to Imagination Technologies’ PowerVR series. Specifically, the PowerVR DXT-48-1536, but without the ray-tracing capabilities that the series can support. Early scepticism suggested that the move might not be much of an upgrade and potentially even a down

Scammers Will Try to Trick You Into Filling Out Google Forms. Don’t Fall for It

wired.com David Nield 2025-10-21 13:30:00

One of the lesser-known apps in the Google Drive online suite is Google Forms. It's an easy, intuitive way to create a web form for other people to enter information into. You can use it for employee surveys, for organizing social gatherings, for giving people a way to contact you, and much more. But Google Forms can also be used for malicious purposes. These forms can be created in minutes, with clean and clear formatting, official-looking images and video, and—most importantly of all—a genuin

M4 MacBook Pro: One of the first worthy upgrades for Apple Silicon Mac users

Last October, Apple announced the M4 MacBook Pro. On the surface, it looks like yet another MacBook Pro spec bump. However, there are a number of key features that make it worth upgrading to, even if you already have an older 14″ MacBook Pro. Why M4? There’s recently been a pretty big flip in MacBook Pro pricing, which gradually took place over the past year or so: First, Apple introduced a new entry-level MacBook Pro at $1599 in 2023 with baseline M3 Then, it upped the base memory to 16GB a

Insta360 Go Ultra Review: Better Video, but Bigger Package

Insta360's Go series cameras have always been remarkably small, and the strong magnetic system makes it possible to put them in places and shoot from angles that other cameras can't match. They're tiny and fun, even if the video quality isn't quite as good as what you'd get from a standard action camera. The latest Go series camera from Insta360, the Go Ultra, aims to change that by using a larger sensor, with higher-quality video, while retaining the detachable, pod-based design. The Go Ultra

The first stars may not have been as uniformly massive as we thought

For decades, astronomers have wondered what the very first stars in the universe were like. These stars formed new chemical elements, which enriched the universe and allowed the next generations of stars to form the first planets. The first stars were initially composed of pure hydrogen and helium, and they were massive—hundreds to thousands of times the mass of the Sun and millions of times more luminous. Their short lives ended in enormous explosions called supernovae, so they had neither the
