Things don't last forever, and in the tech world, they rarely even last five years. Apple lists older products on what it calls the vintage list, which consists of Apple products that the company stopped selling 5-7 years ago. And if you bought your iPhone in 2018, the iPhone XS, your phone is now officially vintage. The iPhone XS launched in 2018 and was officially discontinued in 2020 once all of its stock ran out.

Make the most of the Fed's upcoming decision by taking these steps ASAP.

A revealing demonstration with Tesla's Full Self-Driving mode is raising concerns about whether fully autonomous cars are ready to hit the streets. Tesla has reportedly pushed back the rollout of its upcoming all-electric, fully autonomous car called the Cybercab, while a recent demonstration in Austin, Texas showed a Tesla Model Y running through a school bus' flashing lights and stop signs, and hitting child-size mannequins.

Tesla's Robotaxi Launch Date Was Supposed to Be Today, But We're Shocked to Hear That It's Been Pushed Back

futurism.com Unknown 2026-03-20 16:12:15

The launch of Tesla's robotaxi network will have to wait. On Tuesday, CEO Elon Musk made a tweet stating that, "tentatively," the first public rides on its autonomous vehicles — which will not be in its purpose-built Cybercabs, but in regular Teslas with updated software — will start on June 22. But the date could shift, Musk added, because "we are being super paranoid about safety." That comment could prove to be revealing.

You Are Completely Unprepared for What Tesla's Robotaxi Actually Looks Like

We've finally gotten a glimpse at one of Tesla's Robotaxis in action. But don't expect your socks to be blown off. As seen in a bystander's footage taken in Austin, Texas, that Elon Musk has proudly reshared, it's literally just a black Model Y with the word "Robotaxi" scrawled on the side in a painfully outdated graffiti font. The future is truly upon us. "Beautifully simple design," Musk tweeted, presumably through a pained grimace. BREAKING: First ever Tesla Model Y robotaxi with no-one in

Tesla CEO Elon Musk said his company will start offering public rides in driverless vehicles in Austin, Texas, on June 22, which would mark the beginning of his long-promised robotaxi service. That date could shift because Musk claimed Tesla is “being super paranoid about safety.” Tesla Model Y SUVs have been spotted in recent days and weeks being tested around Austin with no drivers in the seat. Bloomberg News previously reported that Tesla was eyeing a June 12 launch of the service. Musk has

Rivian will launch hands-off highway driver assist ‘in a few weeks’

Rivian said Thursday it plans to launch a hands-off version of its driver assistance system for highway driving “in a few weeks,” and an “eyes-off” version in 2026. The hands-off system will let Rivian compete with companies like Ford and General Motors, which have both launched similar systems in the past few years. (Ford has named its system BlueCruise, while GM has SuperCruise.) Tesla’s Full Self-Driving (supervised) system, which is not fully autonomous despite its name, requires users to k

Netflix's 'Leaving Soon' Label Is Enough to Give Some Very Random Titles a Major Boost

Every week, Netflix reveals its Top 10 lists, ranking its most-viewed movies and TV shows. While many of these top titles are expected, others can surprise; here's where we try to make sense of those seemingly random hits. "I read this post on Reddit" is always a risky way to start a conversation, but here I go… I recently saw a Reddit thread from a few years ago where a poster suggested that Netflix create an entire category on its homepage to showcase content that's leaving the platform soon.

Elon’s DOGE Claimed It Saved $8 Billion. The Real Figure Was $8 Million.

Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency claims to be fighting the scourge of government “waste” and fraud and, this week, DOGE claimed that it had already saved taxpayers tens of billions of dollars. However, in an ironic twist, it would appear that the claims being made by Musk and DOGE about their own activities appear to be, themselves, fraudulent. Despite recently claiming that it had already saved Americans $55 billion, the information on DOGE’s website only accounts for $16 billio
