Big News: reMarkable’s E-paper Tablet May Be Getting Small

gizmodo.com James Pero 2025-10-29 07:35:22

reMarkable is back, teasing something big (but also maybe small) slated for Sept. 3. In a teaser on YouTube, the company is building hype about the upcoming event with a very brief glimmer of what appears to be a new product. In the teaser, reMarkable includes on-screen text stating that “something is on the move.” I don’t claim to be some kind of riddle-solving brain genius, but I am going to go ahead and guess there’s a deeper meaning to that statement. “Something,” in this case, most likely

arstechnica.com Unknown 2025-10-29 05:10:27

In mid-2023, just as it seemed like the North American auto industry had settled on CCS1 as the default fast-charging plug, everything upended as Ford, then General Motors, then everyone else announced they were adopting the North American Charging Standard. Originally developed by Tesla, NACS has a different plug but uses the same electronic communication protocols as CCS, and adoption of NACS thus makes all those non-Tesla electric vehicles compatible with the extensive Tesla Supercharger net

As first reported by TorrentFreak , Apple is preventing downloads of the iTorrent app on iPhones in the EU. Developer Daniil "XITRIX" Vinogradov's app was a popular BitTorrent client available from AltStore PAL , which is among the most popular third-party iOS app stores overseas.

iOS 26 fixed the Photos App & it’s more powerful than ever

Last year, with iOS 18, Apple tried to shake up the Photos App by making it more streamlined. They put everything under one view, and for most people, it was a flop. Instead of making it simpler to navigate, it was actually even more tedious to use. It felt like nothing really had its own place, and everything was just on one never-ending page.
