Aqua Voice shows just how good Mac dictation could be if Apple really tried

I’m a big fan of dictation and voice commands. The latter are the most common way for me to control my smart home, and I dictate a lot of my messages and other short pieces of text. Apple’s built-in dictation features have certainly improved over the years, but trying out the third-party app Aqua Voice shows just how much better it could be if Apple really tried.

The Electric Fence Stopped Working Years Ago

We were walking to watch the sunset when a dog started barking at us from a porch. From inside, a voice called out: "Don't worry, he won't leave the porch. The electric fence hasn't worked in years, but he still won't go past it." I stopped mid-step. A dog, imprisoned by a fence that only exists in his memory. The next question changed how I see everything: What electric fences do we have in our lives? The Invisible Barrier Electric fences train dogs through graduated discomfort, first a wa

Some users report their Firefox browser is scoffing CPU power

People are noticing Firefox gobbling extra CPU and electricity, apparently caused by an "inference engine" built into recent versions of Firefox. Don't say El Reg didn't try to warn you. Mozilla, in its finite wisdom, embedded LLM bots into recent versions of Firefox for the vitally-important purpose of… naming tab groups.

Thankfully, these limitations only apply to Chinese users (so far) and only on devices running at least ColorOS 16 based on Android 16.
