Apple updates macOS Sequoia to version 15.6.1

In addition to releasing iOS 18.6.2, Apple has updated macOS Sequoia to version 15.6.1. The release is likely just a security update as all attention shifts to macOS Tahoe 26, due out as soon as next month. Apple released macOS 15.6, which focused on another bug fix, at the end of last month. Alongside macOS 15.6.1, Apple has issued two older macOS updates: macOS 14.7.8 and macOS 13.7.8. Apple supports older macOS versions, especially with security updates, for several years. Apple will like

The ‘Shin Godzilla’ Black-and-White Version Is Finally Getting a U.S. Theatrical Release

While we wait for news on what’s to come in the wake of Godzilla Minus One‘s massive success, this summer has seen the resurgence of Toho’s prior Godzilla reimagining in Hideaki Anno and Shinji Higuchi’s Shin Godzilla. It got a whole new wave of reappraisal as it stomped back into theaters last week with a brand new 4K remaster—and now, to celebrate its success, and much like Minus One did before it, the movie’s extending its theatrical return with a new black-and-white remastering.

Stone Age People Brutalized Their Prisoners of War, New Evidence Suggests

When we think of Stone Age people, most imagine small communities living in caves, cutting into their most recent hunt with primitive tools, and imitating their environment with illustrative rock art. People during the Neolithic, however—the last stage of the Stone Age (around 9000 to 3300 BCE)—also waged wars and absolutely demolished their enemies. In a study published today in the journal Science Advances, researchers present horrific evidence suggesting that Neolithic people in northeastern

Magic Cue on Pixel 10: What is it and how will it make your life simpler?

TL;DR With the Pixel 10 series, Google has revealed a new AI feature called “Magic Cue.” Magic Cue watches your screen and offers suggestions by pulling relevant information from multiple apps. It currently supports a host of Google apps, with support for third-party apps promised to arrive soon. Despite nearly a decade of selling its Pixel phones (and several years with the Nexus devices before that), Google still strongly relies on unique software experiences to make its phones more compell

The Pixel 10 Pro has a smart home feature that might make it future-proof

TL;DR The Google Pixel 10 Pro includes a built-in Thread radio, a crucial piece of hardware for the future of the smart home. Thread is a low-power mesh network that offers a more reliable and faster connection for smart home devices compared to Wi-Fi. This inclusion future-proofs the phone, enabling it to directly control the growing number of Matter-compatible smart devices. Google’s commitment to seven years of software support for the new Pixel 10 series is bold, as the phone’s state-of-t

Astronomers Discover a Previously Hidden Moon Orbiting Uranus

Astronomers spotted a never-before-seen, bite-sized moon orbiting Uranus, bringing the ice giant’s follower count to 29. The moon is so small and faint—well below the detection threshold of NASA’s Voyager 2 probe—that scientists believe Uranus may host many more undiscovered, tiny moons. The moon, provisionally named S/2025 U1, first entered the view of the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) on February 2, 2025. Further imaging led by the Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) shows that it sits at

Google doubles down on ‘AI phones’ with its Pixel 10 series

With the launch of the new Pixel 10 series, Google is rushing ahead of Apple to deliver AI-powered smartphones to consumers. The devices, announced during Wednesday’s “Made by Google” livestream, come just weeks ahead of Apple’s expected iPhone 17 reveal, which promises to be more of the same — better cameras, possibly thinner devices, and new colors to choose from. Google, meanwhile, has been rapidly integrating its AI platform into its devices. Last year, its Pixel 9 series added a number of

Posts from this author will be added to your daily email digest and your homepage feed.

Amazon goes after the iPad market as it plans $400 Android tablet

Amazon Fire tablets have so far been cheap and cheerful devices, often bought for children. Running a heavily-customized version of Android known as Fire OS, they haven’t achieved much traction in the market … The company is now hoping to change all that with a new tablet aiming to compete in the same premium market as the base model iPad. Reuters doesn’t have many details, but says that it will run a more standard version of Android and will cost around $400. As part of a project known inter

Why email security needs its EDR moment to move beyond prevention

Security leaders today are rethinking email security, not because traditional methods have failed outright, but because the threat landscape and business needs have evolved beyond what legacy approaches can handle. A surprising but apt analogy keeps surfacing: email security is stuck where antivirus (AV) was a decade ago, and it’s time it evolved like AV did, into an element of EDR. The comparison might not be obvious at first. After all, email and endpoints seem like apples and oranges. But

Major password managers can leak logins in clickjacking attacks

Six major password managers with tens of millions of users are currently vulnerable to unpatched clickjacking flaws that could allow attackers to steal account credentials, 2FA codes, and credit card details. Threat actors could exploit the security issues when victims visit a malicious page or websites vulnerable to cross-site scripting (XSS) or cache poisoning, where attackers overlay invisible HTML elements over the password manager interface. While users believe they are interacting with h

'Peacemaker' Season 2: When to Watch the Return of James Gunn's DCU Series

Peacemaker is back for season 2, and it only took three and a half years to get here. John Cena once again suits up as the titular hero who is struggling to squash his toxic past while looking for where he may actually fit in the DCU superhero sphere. But for those who remember The Suicide Squad, the man in the odd helmet (whose civilian name is Chris Smith), made an unsavory choice -- and it's still haunting him to this day. It makes you wonder: If a pocket dimension existed in your closet, wo

iPhone 17 Pro case has surprising name after FineWoven mess, box hints at new Apple accessory

A year after discontinuing the rather disastrous FineWoven iPhone case, Apple will reportedly take a second shot at an alternative premium to leather cases. The latest development is the alleged name, and a potentially new Apple accessory that may be sold separately. TechWoven is the new case material name, says leaker Majin Bu, because a callback to FineWoven invokes such fond memories. The leaker previously shared shots of the new material, which appears to have less velvet-like smoothness a

11 Years Later, Elon Musk Is Floating the Flying Car Scam Again

“Maybe we’ll make a flying car, just for fun,” Elon Musk told the Independent back in 2014. The news outlet insisted at the time that Musk wasn’t joking and that he should be taken seriously, given his success with other companies like PayPal. At the time, the Tesla CEO was worth a measly $8.4 billion according to Forbes, a fraction of the $413 billion he currently holds on paper. But when a billionaire CEO says he’s going to do something, you’re supposed to hear him out. “We could definitely

Material Cultures looks to the past to build the future

Gormley has been finding a “way around it” by systematically exploring how tradition can be harnessed in new ways to repair what she has dubbed the “oil vernacular”—the contemporary building system shaped not by local, natural materials but by global commodities and plastic products made largely from fossil fuels. Though she grew up in a household rich in art and design—she’s the daughter of the famed British sculptor Antony Gormley—she’s quick to say she’s far from a brilliant maker and more o

Worried about the Pixel 10 Pro XL benchmark controversy? Here’s why you shouldn’t be

Well, friends, the day has finally come: Google Pixel day. Today is the day that Google will officially reveal the Pixel 10 series after months of leaks, and it’s a day we should all be excited about. Instead, a lot of Pixel fans are upset and complaining. Those complaints stem from a last-minute Pixel 10 Pro XL benchmark leak, supposedly showing just how fast Google’s new Tensor G5 chip is. Assuming the benchmarks are legit, the good news is that the Tensor G5 is faster than the Tensor G4. How

The Block Stacking Problem

The Block Stacking Problem John D. Norton Department of History and Philosophy of Science University of Pittsburgh https://sites.pitt.edu/~jdnorton/jdnorton.html February 21, 2025 1. Introduction In the block stacking problem, a collection of blocks are to be stacked at a table edge. If we stack the blocks so that they protrude past the edge of the table, how far can they go horizontally? The curious and then surprizing result is that we can extend the stack horizontally arbitrarily far.

MacOS Tahoe vs. Sequoia: Here's How Liquid Glass Redesigns Your Mac's Icons

Apple's Liquid Glass software design language is bringing a new look to your Mac. Some of it you'll likely spot right away -- like the revamped menu bar, which will have a completely clear background.

MacOS Tahoe is more than a design update. Functional changes include a smarter Spotlight search, new continuity features, live translation

FEMA Now Requires Disaster Victims to Have an Email Address

The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) will now require disaster survivors to register for federal aid using an email address—a departure from previous policy where email addresses were optional. The move, FEMA employees tell WIRED, puts people across the US with little to no access to internet services at risk of losing out on crucial federal financial assistance after disasters. In an internal operational update document seen by WIRED, the agency states that the new requirements are “
