The Tiniest Action Camera Is Now Slightly Larger, and So Much Better for It

gizmodo.com Kyle Barr 2025-12-05 21:29:45

Insta360 wanted to upset the staid design of action cameras two years ago with its Insta360 Go 3 and its odd magnetic camera pod. As much as I may want to stick a camera on my fridge, most users still want a device that will shoot video of the same quality as their average GoPro—no matter if the camera itself is the size of their thumb. As with most lenses, inevitably, you have to go bigger. The new $450 Insta360 Go Ultra trades out the old pop-out pod shape for a cube. It makes this magnetic ac

The Pixel 10 Pro’s new always-on display finally shows your full wallpaper

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-12-06 02:51:33

C. Scott Brown / Android Authority TL;DR The Google Pixel 10 Pro has a new feature that allows you to show your lock screen wallpaper on the always-on display (AOD). Your wallpaper is dimmed and blurred so as to not interfere with other elements on the AOD. Due to the feature’s display requirement, it won’t be available on the base Pixel 10. Google launched the Pixel 10 the other day, and as usual, the new phones come with a host of smaller features that weren’t highlighted during the launch

Oh No, ‘World of Warcraft’ Is Getting Me Elf-Pilled Again

gizmodo.com James Whitbrook 2025-12-06 02:56:42

As someone who has played World of Warcraft on and off for what now qualifies as a significant portion of my life over the last 21 years, I’ve come to learn that there are two things that I deeply appreciate about Blizzard’s long-running fantasy MMO. The first is the way Warcraft has sat with, and handled, the evolution of its world and characters over those two decades as an ongoing entity. Well, that’s not really the first. Because the actual first is that I just really love Warcraft‘s elves.

Trump's Nvidia and Intel meddling is a 'scattershot method of crony capitalism': Walter Isaacson

cnbc.com Samantha Subin 2025-12-06 06:35:31

President Donald Trump's dealings with Intel and Nvidia amount to a "scattershot method of crony capitalism," Walter Isaacson said Thursday. "That state capitalism often evolves into crony capitalism, where you have favored companies and industries that pay tribute to the leader, and that is a recipe for not only disaster, but just sort of a corrupt sense of messiness," he told CNBC's "Squawk Box." The Tulane University professor, widely known for his recent Elon Musk biography, argued that th

engadget.com Unknown 2025-12-06 06:00:54

Masimo, the medical technology company whose lawsuit led to the temporary sales pause of the Apple Watch Series 9 and Ultra 2, has sued the US Customs and Border Protection days after Apple released its redesigned blood oxygen monitoring feature. This is just the latest update in the lengthy legal saga between Masimo and Apple, which started when the former sued the iPhonemaker in 2021, accusing it of infringing on several of its light-based blood oxygen monitoring patents.

AWS CEO says using AI to replace junior staff is 'Dumbest thing I've ever heard'

Amazon Web Services CEO Matt Garman has suggested firing junior workers because AI can do their jobs is "the dumbest thing I've ever heard." Garman made that remark in conversation with AI investor Matthew Berman, during which he talked up AWS’s Kiro AI-assisted coding tool and said he's encountered business leaders who think AI tools "can replace all of our junior people in our company."
