We've been covering all the news Apple announced at WWDC 2025, but possibly the most exciting element coming to iOS 26 wasn't discussed on stage. The next update to the operating system will let people set custom snooze times. MacRumors reported that iOS 26 will offer anywhere from one to 15 minute snoozes that users can select when setting the alarm. For years, Apple has kept the snooze timing locked at nine minutes.

Frequent reauth doesn't make you more secure You're happily working away, fingers flying, deep in flow, and suddenly, boink, your session has expired.

‘Sunshine’ and ‘Event Horizon’ Bring Deep-Space Madness to Gruesome Heights

gizmodo.com Cheryl Eddy 2025-10-13 17:00:03

Millions of miles from Earth, a spaceship receives a distress call—so its crew changes course to investigate. Disaster follows. That’s famously the set-up for Alien, but it’s used often in sci-fi stories, including 1997’s Event Horizon and 2007’s Sunshine. Sunshine’s been in the news since director Danny Boyle revealed he’d originally hoped it would kick off a trilogy; that never happened, because like Event Horizon, it flopped at the box office.

In a grim yet hopeful episode, the Empire’s control of the narrative begins to fall apart, showcasing the brutal violence meted out by Imperial forces against those who resist Palpatine’s rule.

Countless weight loss and fitness trends have come and gone over the years, from gimmicky products that provided minimal results to science-backed health tools that genuinely worked. You may remember the vibrating belt machines from the mid-20th century that were promoted as weight loss aids.

How to Protest Safely in the Age of Surveillance

wired.com Andy Greenberg 2025-10-13 17:29:20

If you insist on using biometric unlocking methods to have faster access to your devices, keep in mind that some phones have an emergency function to disable these types of locks. Hold the wake button and one of the volume buttons simultaneously on an iPhone, for instance, and it will lock itself and require a passcode to unlock rather than FaceID or TouchID, even if they’re enabled. Most devices also let you take photos or record video without unlocking them first, a good way to keep your phone
