A Boeing Dreamliner 787 plane crashed into a residential neighborhood with 242 people aboard mere moments after taking off from Ahmedabad in western India, exploding in an immense fireball. The cause of the immensely tragic loss of life remains unknown. As CNBC reports, it could take months to find out. The top-selling wide-body aircraft was delivered to Air India in 2014.

Razer’s new mobile controller can stretch wide enough to fit an iPad Pro

theverge.com Cameron Faulkner 2025-09-23 18:00:00

The iPad Mini is no longer the biggest tablet you can fit into a mobile gaming controller (without breaking it a little). Razer’s new $199.99 Kishi V3 Pro XL can accommodate a 13-inch iPad or Android tablet that uses a USB-C connector. It’s like Razer’s 2013 Edge, in spirit at least. My 10.9-inch iPad Air is a cinch to fit inside of the Kishi V3 Pro XL, and having even this large of a screen to play on is a treat. How could it not be? Not only that, its speakers sound fantastic for playing game

Your iPad is your new computer

techcrunch.com Amanda Silberling 2025-09-23 18:37:07

After its WWDC 2025 event, Apple described its upcoming iPadOS 26 update as “the biggest iPadOS release ever.” This doesn’t seem like it’s just a self-aggrandizing exaggeration, though — iPadOS 26 could actually change the way we think about the utility of a fifteen-year-old product that has long felt like an oversized iPhone designed for a cyclops. The new OS brings us multi-tasking tools, a new windowing system, and the Preview app, which may not sound as alluring as “Liquid Glass.” But if yo

‘Doctor Who’ Will Return… as an Animated Kids Show

When Doctor Who came to the controversial climax of its latest season recently, it did so with an uncertainty the series hasn’t faced for 20 years: there was then, and still is, no official news if the series will return. But while that’s still case, the BBC has announced news that should give some reassurance that Doctor Who will have some form of future on TV. It’s just perhaps not the way most fans would’ve hoped for. This morning the corporation confirmed that a new Doctor Who series was in

The world’s leading artificial intelligence companies are stepping up efforts to deal with a growing problem of chatbots telling people what they want to hear.
