How to clear your TV cache (and why it greatly improves performance)

Adam Breeden/ZDNET In the age of smart TVs, convenience is king. With just a few clicks, we can dive into endless entertainment -- but that ease comes with a downside: the buildup of cache data. Also: How to disable ACR on your TV (and why doing so makes such a big difference) Just like on your phone or computer, a cluttered TV cache can lead to sluggish performance, app crashes, and even hinder new content from loading properly. That's why it's important to clear all that extra cache and mak

Teenage Engineering Has a New PC Case. As Usual, You Won’t Believe the Price

Teenage Engineering, makers of fine and fun devices like the popular OP-1 field synthesizer and Pocket Operator music mixers, dropped a new PC case yesterday, and it immediately sold out. But unlike gear like the OP-1 field or TP-7 audio recorder that sell for eye-watering prices of $2,000 and $1,500, respectively, the translucent and plastic Computer-2 desktop PC case was given away for free. Well, sort of—you just have to pay for shipping. “The computer case you can’t buy,” reads the Computer-

Get Ready for All the New Ringtones in iOS 26

Apple released the third public beta of iOS 26 on Aug. 14. The beta brought a handful of new features, like a new Liquid Glass design and the ability to screen incoming calls, to the iPhones of developers and beta testers. It also gave developers and beta testers seven new ringtones they can try now. Many of the new ringtones are remixed versions of the Reflection ringtone. One version includes what sounds like woodwind instruments, while another sounds like a synthwave song you'd hear in Cyber

Gemini’s getting a nice usability upgrade for its text responses (Updated)

Rita El Khoury / Android Authority TL;DR Google is working on an easier process for sharing text responses from Gemini. The new workflow can be initiated by double tapping or dragging to select specific text, and users can bypass the “Select text” option. However, this new method won’t work on text in a list, only the text before or after it. Update, August 14, 2025 (10:42 AM ET): After first identifying Google’s work towards bringing Gemini a greatly improved interface for text sharing a fe

Teenage Engineering is giving away a free computer chassis, but it's already 'sold out'

Teenage Engineering, the hip Swedish tech/design brand that makes synths of all kinds (and a portable game machine with a crank ) has built another computer chassis. And it’s free! But you also can’t get one, right now at least. (Sorry about that.) Described by its maker as a "small form factor, mini-ITX computer case," the Computer-2 is made of a single sheet of semi-transparent plastic with snap hooks and living hinges for screw-free assembly. The engineering wizards at Teenage Engineering se

I’m Watching Every Conjuring Movie Before 'The Conjuring: Last Rites.' Here’s Where to Stream Them All

When The Conjuring debuted in 2013, directed by James Wan, the movie felt like a throwback to atmospheric 1970s horror flicks such as The Changeling or The Manitou. From its simple opening title card -- yellow text on a black background -- to its relatively little gore and slow build of suspense, The Conjuring was a breath of fresh air. It arrived at a time when the horror genre was rampant with gruesome movies like Saw (which was also directed by Wan) and Hostel. The Conjuring kick-started not

Google Photos wants to help you spot deepfakes and AI edits (APK teardown)

Ryan Haines / Android Authority TL;DR Google is working on adding a new section called “How was this made” to the details view. This section will tell a user if certain photos or videos were edited with AI or not. The feature uses Content Credentials to maintain a history of edits, both with and without AI tools. An error message will appear if the media history has been modified or is missing. As AI continues to blur the lines between what’s real and what’s fake, it’s becoming increasingly

Google will help you pester your friends into turning location sharing on (APK teardown)

TL;DR Google’s Find Hub combines resources for tracking devices and sharing location with friends and family. Users need to positively consent first before their location is shared with anyone. The app is working to build an easy way for you to request your friends grant that access. Smartphones are picking up new features and abilities all the time, and while some of those are pushed out to us enabled by default, others are going to require us to make the intentional choice to opt in. And wh

Monarch Butterflies Are Losing Their Navigational Abilities. You Can Guess Why

Each fall, millions of eastern North American monarch butterflies migrate up to 3,000 miles south to the mountains of central Mexico, then return to their northern range in the spring. These winged insects rely on a complex navigation system to go to and from their overwintering sites, and new research suggests climate change may be messing with it. Monarch butterflies have two distinct biological “compasses.” The primary one infers direction based on their circadian rhythm and the position of

Here’s how Google Find Hub satellite location sharing is going to work (APK teardown)

TL;DR Google announced back in May that the newly renamed Find Hub would be adding support for satellite-based location sharing. That’s still not here yet, but a recent app update reveals text strings that hint at how things will work. Users will be able to share their location once every 15 minutes, with a daily limit on maximum shares. Satellite support is changing the rules of the game when it comes to mobile connectivity, and we are still right now only in the early days of its evolution.

How Boom uses software to accelerate hardware development

Flowers of Fealty: Commemoration of the Christening of Elisabeth of Hesse (1598)

One suspects these botanical additions were meant to stage a conversation with the original manuscript. A dedicatory Latin poem wishes the princess happiness and that she continue “growing for a long time like a little blossom”, while the accompanying watercolor marginalia shows various flowers in full spring bloom. On the next page, the poem envisions the princess’s honorable name “flourishing” in the land and bringing forth flowers — verse that is framed by racemes of asphodels. There are text

The 4 Best Invisible Hearing Aids of 2025, Tested and Reviewed

Stigmas should be stigmatized. Whether we’re talking about mental health or wearing cargo pants, the world would benefit from less societal shade. For hearing aids, these often-bulky devices can age a wearer faster than gray hair or referencing Jefferson Airplane deep cuts. But despite often being associated with seniors, more than 9 million Americans between the ages of 20 and 59 have some degree of hearing loss. Still, the stigma is enough to keep most of these people from even considering an

'Chairmen' of $100 million scam operation extradited to US
