androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-10-11 04:08:09

AssembleDebug / Android Authority TL;DR Google’s currently working on a number of visual changes to how you interact with the Gemini overlay. In addition to updating the coloring and shape of the overlay, we’ve identified a new animation it could use to appear on screen. We can trigger this effect both when accessing the overlay via swiping, as well as long-pressing the power button.

Apple’s new Liquid Glass visual element is getting any icy design change in some places before it reaches customers. iOS 26 developer beta 3, which will likely be iOS 26 public beta 1 later this month, reduces the transparency effect in a number of places like navigation bars in certain apps.

I'm not losing sleep over Elon Musk's political ambitions

engadget.com Unknown 2025-10-11 02:01:16

Just a month after his explosive fallout with Donald Trump, Elon Musk is floating the idea of forming his own political party. In a poll on X, 1.24 million of his followers voted, with 65.4 percent saying they would like to see such a thing happen. The America Party would offer “independence” from a political system Musk says is too focused on “waste & graft.” Like so many things Musk says, it’s not worth paying too much attention to unless he puts his money where his mouth is.

New sphere-packing record stems from an unexpected source

The advantage of Rogers’ method was that you didn’t have to start with a particularly efficient lattice to get an efficient sphere packing. You just had to choose the right ellipsoid. But this introduced a new complication. Unlike a sphere, which is completely defined by a single number — its radius — an ellipsoid is defined by several axes of different lengths. The higher the dimension, the greater the number of directions you can stretch your ellipsoid in, and the more options you have for wha
