9to5mac.com Ben Lovejoy 2025-09-17 17:23:04

Apple’s Emergency SOS via Satellite service has been slowly expanding from a major emergency role – essentially letting you call in an air ambulance when injured in a remote location – to a broader way of remaining in touch when outside mobile data coverage. A new satellite-based service spotted in the iOS 26 developer beta will be useful in both extreme situations and more everyday scenarios in areas with poor mobile coverage … Namely, access to weather reports, as spotted by Macworld.

Snapchat announces that new lightweight AR Spectacles will be launching next year

9to5mac.com Michael Burkhardt 2025-09-17 21:22:08

At Augmented World Expo 2025, Snapchat announced a next-generation version of Snap Spectacles. These new spectacles should have a more lightweight and immersive design, and will be launching to the public next year. I had the opportunity to go hands on with the fifth generation Snap Spectacles towards the end of last year, and they were quite impressive. That generation of Spectacles was only available for developers, and weren’t planned to launch to the public. They were also fair bit bulky, b

iPadOS 26 just made the entry level iPad the best value in the lineup, here’s why [Video]

9to5mac.com Fernando Silva 2025-09-17 21:36:15

The best part of Apple’s keynote yesterday, for me, was the introduction of iPadOS 26. Apple finally opened up the floodgates and gave iPad users everything they wanted. We have an actual multitasking window manager, new menu toolbars, better background tasks, and a revamped files app. All this has transformed how people will view iPads moving forward. But the fantastic thing is that this is not just reserved for the $1300+ iPad Pro; this now works on the $299 entry-level iPad. Apple just made t

Last Monday, towards the end of the WWDC25 keynote, Craig Federighi said that Apple had “expanded” its vision for Swift Assist, and it would now allow developers to bring their Large Language Model of choice directly to Xcode. Now, we know more about how this is going to work. What is Swift Assist? This was a feature that Apple announced during last year’s WWDC, but hadn’t released until now, on Xcode 26 beta.

One of the very first announcements on this year’s WWDC was that for the first time, third‑party developers will get to tap directly into Apple’s on‑device AI with the new Foundation Models framework. But how do these models actually compare against what’s already out there? With the new Foundation Models framework, third-party developers can now build on the same on-device AI stack used by Apple’s native apps.

There's a Steven Universe sequel series in the works at Prime Video

It's been five years since the Steven Universe saga ended, via a final season and movie that took the story into the future. Now, it's coming back, according to a report by Deadline . Prime Video is working on a sequel series, with franchise creator Rebecca Sugar in tow as an executive producer (and hopefully as a songwriter.)

Characterizing my first attempt at copper-only passives

Characterizing my first attempt at copper-only passives¶ Last year, I kind of got a bee in my bonnet about trying to see if I could accurately (?) make small RF passives out of copper, rather than buying 2pF NP0 capacitors or something, as part of a long-on-the-horizon project to make extremely inexpensive GHz-class oscilloscope probes.

Research suggests Big Bang may have taken place inside a black hole

The Big Bang is often described as the explosive birth of the universe – a singular moment when space, time and matter sprang into existence. But what if this was not the beginning at all? What if our universe emerged from something else – something more familiar and radical at the same time? In a new paper, published in Physical Review D, my colleagues and I propose a striking alternative. Our calculations suggest the Big Bang was not the start of everything, but rather the outcome of a gravit
