DJI, best known for its drones, gimbals and action cameras, is releasing its first 360 camera, the Osmo 360. It has some impressive specs, with big 1-inch sensors, 8K video at 50 frames per second and 120-megapixel photos. The 360 camera market certainly isn't crowded. Insta360 is the biggest name, followed by Kandao and GoPro with its refreshed-but-aging Max. The Osmo 360 seems interesting on paper, but then there's the little wrinkle that for now it's not available in the US. The reasons why

Elyse Betters Picaro / ZDNET ZDNET's key takeaways Google is implementing a new AI-powered age verification method. Machine learning will analyze your activity (mostly on YouTube) to guess your age. If AI guesses wrong, you'll need to go through a verification process. A day after announcing AI-powered age verification on YouTube, which we explained in more detail yesterday, Google is launching it on a larger scale, and again it's on you to sort out any problems if AI guesses wrong.

As consumer confidence dips, so does tipping In Q1 2025, Square found that the average tip on food and beverage transactions was 15.17%, and this continued to fall into Q2 with the average tip coming in at 14.99%, aligned to dropping consumer confidence in the economy. Bars regularly receive the highest tips; in Q1 their average tip was 17.36% on each transaction, though this too fell to 16.96% in Q2. Cafés and quick-service restaurants received 14.72% and 14.64% in Q1, respectively, and dropp

Google is testing a machine learning-powered tech in the U.S. to determine the age of users and filter content across all its products accordingly. The company said it will consider data from Google accounts, including types of details users have searched for or categories of videos they have watched on YouTube, to determine the age. If the company’s tool decides that a user is under 18, they would get an email with details about how Google products might change for them. For these users, Goog

This guest post by Eduard Agavriloae and Matei Josephs, two expert cloud security researchers, was developed through Truffle Security’s Research CFP program . We first connected with Eduard and Matei after their well-received DEF CON 32 talk, AWS CloudQuarry: Digging for secrets in public AMIs , where they used TruffleHog to identify hundreds of live secrets in public AWS Images. In this follow-up, they expand their research to Google Cloud Platform (GCP). TL;DR We scanned 8,400+ public GCP ima
In brief: Parents who worry about where their kids are might be interested in a new line of children's sneakers from Skechers. Each pair of these shoes has a hidden compartment on the inside designed to fit an Apple AirTag, allowing the wearer to be tracked. The sneakers in the new Find My Skechers line have a cutout inside the heel of the shoe. Lift up the insert to reveal a small compartment containing the AirTag holder, where the tracker can be securely placed. The compartment has a screw-i
Roald Sagdeev has already watched one scientific empire rot from the inside. When Sagdeev began his career, in 1955, science in the Soviet Union was nearing its apex. At the Kurchatov Institute in Moscow, he studied the thermonuclear reactions that occur inside of stars. A few lab tables away, Andrei Sakharov was developing the hydrogen bomb. The Soviet space program would soon astonish the world by lofting the first satellite, and then the first human being, into orbit. Sagdeev can still rememb

Advice for first-time managers from someone who learned it the hard way, cleaned it up, and passed it on. Welcome to the club. You either asked for this, or someone tapped you on the shoulder and said, “Hey, you seem responsible. Wanna be in charge of other humans?” Either way, here you are. Congrats. Or condolences. Maybe both. Being a first-time manager is weird. You go from being great at your job to being a total beginner at a job that nobody really taught you how to do. There’s no “Manage
About two years ago, we ran an article in which Verge staffers talked about their favorite backpacks and other bags. It’s time for a new one, and so we asked the staff to tell us about their favorite travel packs, day-to-day bags, and other ways to carry stuff around. Here’s what they told us. Backpacks I like to travel light, but as a dad, that’s almost impossible. I bought a Tom Bihn Synik 30 a few years ago and found that there’s a reason it’s on almost every backpack list you’ll find.

Ofcom investigates 34 porn sites over age checks 2 hours ago Share Save Liv McMahon Technology reporter Share Save Getty Images Ofcom is investigating four companies, operating a total of 34 porn sites, over whether they are complying with its new age check requirements. The regulator said on Friday more than 6,000 sites allowing pornography and other adult content would start using "highly effective" tools to verify or estimate whether users were over or under the age of 18. But Ofcom says s
Google Pixel 10 leaks have been nonstop over the last few weeks. From device renders and specs to Tensor G5 details, little has been left to the imagination. What we’ve seen so far has painted a promising, if not overly exciting, picture for Google’s next phones. The Tensor G5 should be the highlight, thanks to its new 3nm design and Google’s switch from Samsung Foundry to TSMC. The base Pixel 10 getting a telephoto camera is exciting, too. While the leaks have been fine, I haven’t seen anythi

It may also be used to document and pursue leads and sales pipelines. Automation is one of the key benefits of CRM software but depending on the type of solution you opt for, you may also be able to harness AI, analytics, collaborative tools, and advanced features that s
Maybe they should change the button to say, "I am a robot"? On Friday, OpenAI's new ChatGPT Agent, which can perform multistep tasks for users, proved it can pass through one of the Internet's most common security checkpoints by clicking Cloudflare's anti-bot verification—the same checkbox that's supposed to keep automated programs like itself at bay.

July 2020 Like many people, I have most of my best ideas in the shower. This is sometimes annoying: I could use more than one shower’s worth of good ideas a day, but I’d rather not end up as a shrivelled yet insightful prune. Mostly, though, shower ideas are the incentive that keeps me smelling okay, so I grudgingly accept the constraint. The time when it was most constraining was the first time I became a manager. I only had a few reports, so managing them wasn’t a full-time job. But I was v

US President Donald Trump just dealt another blow to the embattled ecommerce industry, which is still reeling from sweeping tariffs Trump announced in the spring. On Wednesday, Trump signed an executive order widening the impact of those tariffs and making it more expensive for Americans to buy foreign products on sites like eBay, Etsy, and Amazon. The order eliminates the so-called “de minimis” provision, a long-standing policy that allowed people in the US to import packages valued at less th
Spotify is introducing new requirements to confirm the ages of users in the UK trying to access explicit content. The streaming platform is implementing a facial scan process in partnership with Yoti, which also provides its services to Instagram . UK Spotify users may be prompted to perform this age check when they try to view or listen to age-restricted content. This type of approach to checking ages can sometimes yield wrong results. If the facial scan based on a photo of the user determines
