zdnet.com Chris Bayer 2025-09-02 09:24:00

Kerry Wan/ZDNET Say you're watching an edgy new streaming series and find yourself turning up the volume for every scene where two actors are engaged in a dramatic dialogue. It seems like both characters are whispering -- until an explosion happens on screen, and the sound is the opposite, almost deafening. Also: Why I recommend this TCL Mini LED TV to most people in 2025 - especially at this price What's up with that? It's not just the imbalanced proportion of sound that bothers you, and it'

Denmark's Archaeology Experiment Is Paying Off in Gold and Knowledge

news.ycombinator.com Elizabeth Anne Brown 2025-08-30 05:13:15

Ole Ginnerup Schytz, an engineer in Denmark’s sleepy Vindelev agricultural area, had used a metal detector only a handful of times when he found a bent clump of metal in a friend’s barley field. He figured it was the lid from a container of tinned fish and tossed it in his junk bag with the other bits of farm trash that had set his metal detector beeping: rusty nails, screws, scrap iron. A few paces away he dug up another shiny circle. Someone had clearly enjoyed a lot of tinned fish here—into t

A few weeks ago, Logitech announced an interesting new keyboard case for the iPad Air and iPad Pro – called the Logitech Flip Folio. It takes a different approach, and certainly targets a new market that hasn’t quite been thought about before. Overview First things first, this keyboard does not utilize the smart connector – unlike other Logitech keyboards for iPad. However, as you’ll soon see – that’s an essential part of the product.

Scaling our observability platform by embracing wide events and replacing OTel

What just happened? FireWire was Apple's ambitious attempt to establish a novel connectivity technology for its computer ecosystem back in the 90s. Now, Cupertino is unceremoniously removing the standard from its modern operating system capabilities. The recently introduced macOS 26 "Tahoe" will bring a new naming scheme for Apple's operating system ecosystem, novel features, and a highly questionable Vista-like UI redesign.

Facebook will soon roll out support for passkeys on Android and iOS

techcrunch.com Aisha Malik 2025-09-08 09:19:57

Facebook is rolling out support for passkeys on both iOS and Android, the social network announced on Wednesday. Passkey logins make it harder for bad actors to remotely access your accounts because they require physical access to your phone. Unlike standard logins, passkeys use Face ID or Touch ID, a PIN, or a physical security authentication key to validate logins. Passkeys remove the need to rely on username and password combinations, which can be susceptible to phishing and other issues.
