The new version of Audi’s best-selling Q5 SUV arrives in the US

Audi provided flights from Washington, DC, to Denver and accommodation so Ars could drive the Q5 and SQ5, as well as two other models you can read about next week. Ars does not accept paid editorial content. ASPEN, Colo.—There's a lot riding on Audi's next Q5. The model has been Audi's bread and butter here since the model went on sale in the US in 2009, as tastes changed and sedans fell out of favor. The third-generation Q5 is built on an all-new platform and is one of a new generation of soft

Startup Investors Foaming at the Mouth To Carve Up Your Job With AI

If there's one throughline linking us to our ancestors at the birth of industrial society, it's the anxiety of automation. Back then it was the robber barons pushing the mechanized loom — and now it's kids in their 20s founding tech startups. Meet Mercor: the software that might decide whether you get that next job, or end up in the unemployment line. At least, that's the hope for deep-pocketed investors who lavished the startup with $100 million in a recent fundraising round. With that backin

Yocto, RockPi and SBOMs: Building modern embedded Linux images

21 FEB • 2025 8 minutes TLDR: I wanted to generate an up-to-date disk image for a Rock Pi 4 using Yocto that included CUPS and Docker to both get a better understanding of Yocto and test the new SBOM generation feature. As with many single-board computers (SBCs) from China, the issue often isn’t the board itself but rather the software. RockPi from Radxa is no exception. If you go and download the latest disk images for this board, you will notice that they are all end-of-life (EoL). However,

Google Chrome disables uBlock Origin for some in Manifest v3 rollout

Google continues its rollout of gradually disabling uBlock Origin and other Manifest V2-based extensions in the Chrome web browser as part of its efforts to push users to Manifest V3-based extensions. For those unaware, Manifest V3 is Chrome's latest extension specification and is designed to limit extension access to user network requests, block developers from utilizing remote content, and improve overall performance. While Manifest V3 is supposed to benefit end users, it comes at the cost o

All the news about EV charging in the US

The state of electric vehicle charging in North America is shaping up like the smartphone charging wars — but focused on much more expensive hardware. Right now, like USB-C and Android phones, the Combined Charging System (CCS, Type 1) plug is on a greater variety of cars. Meanwhile, Tesla’s plug was long compared to Apple and Lightning. But while Apple eventually adopted USB-C, Tesla is opening up its connector, renaming it the North American Charging Standard (NACS), and trying to shove CCS o

How the EU’s DMA is changing Big Tech: all of the news and updates

The European Union’s Digital Markets Act (DMA) has come into force, and it’s meant that some of the world’s biggest tech companies are having to make major changes to how they operate. The law, which is designed to increase competition in the EU’s digital markets, designates some large online companies and their services as “gatekeepers.” Those that have received the gatekeeper designation — the companies on the list are Alphabet, Amazon, Apple, ByteDance, Meta, and Microsoft — have to meet str

Despite recent layoffs, Meta is expanding in India

Meta made headlines last month for announcing plans to cut 5% of its employees, controversially deeming them “low performers.” But the job cuts aren’t holding Meta back from expanding in certain geographic areas. Meta is setting up a new site in the country’s tech hub of Bengaluru (formerly known as Bangalore), multiple Meta employees posted on LinkedIn this month. Meta is currently hiring for 41 positions there, according to its careers webpage, most of which were posted over the last month.

Galaxy Buds 3 Pro charging flaw leaves users with one dead earbud

Ryan Haines / Android Authority TL;DR Multiple Galaxy Buds 3 Pro owners claim to be experiencing an issue where one of their earbuds isn’t charging. It appears this issue has been a common one for the last few months. Some users have found a temporary solution. When Samsung launched the Galaxy Buds 3 Pro last year, there were a few hiccups in the quality control department. The tech giant even had to temporarily suspend shipments at one point. While some issues have been fixed since then, it

Testing confirms MagSafe doesn’t interfere with Apple’s C1 modem in iPhone 16e

The iPhone 16e lacks support for MagSafe charging, an omission that has dominated conversations about Apple’s cheapest iPhone model this week. Initially, there was speculation that MagSafe might have been excluded due to interference with Apple’s C1 chip, which is its first-ever cellular modem designed for the iPhone. Yesterday, Apple confirmed that the C1 has nothing to do with the omission of MagSafe on the iPhone 16e. New testing conducted by an iPhone case accessory manufacturer and shared

The Morning After: Apple reveals its new cheapest iPhone. What’s missing?

The price has been bumped up, but so have the specs. If you couldn’t stomach $800 for a new iPhone with Apple Intelligence, don’t worry: Apple just announced the iPhone 16e. At $599, it strikes a balance on specs, which is the soft and cosy way to say it doesn’t have everything. It has a lot, though. With a 6.1-inch screen, it’s a much bigger device than the 4.7-inch iPhone SE, with a notch for FaceID (no more TouchID), USB-C (adios, Lightning) and the company’s A18 processor. There’s also an

Microsoft's quantum chip Majarona 1 is a few qubits short

Microsoft says its Majorana 1 contains eight topological qubits and can scale to a million, though the details on how it will scale are scant. Microsoft Quantum Microsoft's quantum computing scientists announced they have finally realized a long-held goal of building a "topological qubit", the equivalent of a transistor for ordinary chips, that may help advance quantum computing. The qubit is the functional element of a quantum chip, called Majorana 1, based on an exotic particle, a hybrid of

India’s ‘Human Calculator Kid’ Shatters 6 World Records in a Single Day

Remember when your teachers used to say that mental math is important because you can’t walk around with a calculator everywhere you go? Never minding the fact that we now do, actually, take a calculator everywhere we go (hello, smartphones), a teenager from India has taken it a step further: He has essentially become a human calculator. Fourteen-year-old Aaryan Shukla cruised through six mental math calculation world records in a single day, according to a Guinness World Records statement publ

Revolutionary Girl Utena Is as Lynchian as Shojo Anime Has Ever Been

Over the years, critics and everyday people have come to identify media as “Lynchian,” in reverence for how video games, movies, and TV shows evoke the dream-like quality of the late auteur David Lynch. Although most media described as Lynchian takes its inspiration from seminal works like Twin Peaks through referential nods, no show completely embodies the ephemeral vibe of Lynch’s opaque-yet-piercing style of storytelling quite like the similarly influential shojo anime series Revolutionary Gi

Apple’s most puzzling iPhone 16e decision is being corrected

A number of case makers are rising to the challenge and fixing Apple’s most baffling design decision for its latest iPhone. Apple removed an invisible iPhone feature Apple’s new iPhone 16e, which starts at $599, is a competitive product against the $799 iPhone 16 and $999 iPhone 16 Pro. Apple effectively reduced the entry cost for using Apple Intelligence by $200. Apple reached this price by using a less capable camera, less wifi and cellular performance, and dropping the Camera Control from

Apple emerges as likely buyer for UFO disclosure film from ‘Top Gun’ producer

If aliens exist, Apple may be about to tell the origin story of how we found out… Deadline exclusively reports that Apple Original Films is the likely suitor for an upcoming movie centered around UFO disclosure. The untitled sci-fi (fiction, debatable) film is expected to focus on events in recent years around the U.S. government’s disclosure of previously classified footage of what is now called a UAP (unidentified aerial phenomena or unidentified anomalous phenomena). For years, the stigma su

ZDNET's key takeaways Lenovo's Legion Go S is currently on sale for $730 at Best Buy This handheld supports AAA gaming thanks to its AMD processor and the front-facing speakers that envelop you in high-definition sound It is, however, bogged down by a low battery life and an expensive price tag. $729.99 at Best Buy The Lenovo Legion Go S is the company's second attempt at handheld gaming, following 2023's Legion Go.

Apple, Lenovo lead losers in laptop repairability analysis

Apple and Lenovo had the lowest laptop repairability scores in an analysis of recently released devices from consumer advocacy group US Public Interest Research Group (PIRG) Education Fund. While Apple's low marks are partially due the difficulty involved in disassembling MacBooks, Lenovo appears to be withholding information from shoppers deemed critical to right-to-repair legislation and accessibility. The report, US PIRG's fourth annual “Failing the Fix” [PDF], calculated repairability score

SpaceX engineers brought on at FAA after probationary employees were fired

Engineers who work for Elon Musk’s SpaceX have been brought on as senior advisers to the acting administrator of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), sources tell WIRED.

Bankrupt Nikola wants to sell its whole business by April

Electric trucking startup Nikola is hoping to sell what remains of its whole business as early as April, lawyers for the company told a judge Thursday during the first hearing of its bankruptcy case in Delaware. The lawyers claimed Nikola already has at least three interested buyers (who they did not name) and that the company hopes to solicit other bids, with a submission deadline likely in late March. If Nikola can’t find a buyer willing to take on the whole business, the company will pivot

Children routinely using social media, Australian regulator says

Children routinely using social media, Australian regulator says 1 hour ago Graham Fraser Technology Reporter Getty Images More than 80% of Australian children aged eight to 12 use social media or messaging services that are only meant to be for over-13s, according to new research.

The country's internet regulator, eSafety, found YouTube, TikTok and Snapchat were the most

Lenovo Legion Go S review (Windows version): Not so fast

Lenovo has already teased the second-gen version of its flagship gaming handheld. But that won’t be out until much later this year, so in the meantime, it’s come out with the Legion Go S, a slightly sturdier and more portable way to frag while you’re out and about. Now the tricky thing about this device is that it will be available in a bunch of different configurations including one that comes pre-installed with SteamOS — a first for any portable PC not made by Valve. Frankly, that’s the versio

The developer Aenu’s account also seems to have been removed. aPS3e had quickly risen to fame in recent days for bringing quality PS3 emulation to Android. In a sudden and somewhat expected move, the aPS3e emulator, which had briefly stirred up excitement among Android gamers hoping to emulate PS3 titles on their devices, has disappeared from GitHub.

The Lenovo Legion Go S (with Windows) makes so many mistakes I can’t figure out how we got here

Lenovo Legion Go S with Windows The Windows-powered Legion Go S isn't a total bust from Lenovo. The display is great, and so are the speakers. There are also some nice software features, including fully customizable buttons. However, there are so many confusing choices here that ruin the experience: the quad-core Ryzen Z2 Go chipset leaves much to be desired, the whole thing is too heavy, there's no "gotta have it" feature, and poor hardware decisions (like the tiniest trackpad on Earth) make it
