Xiaomi Smart Band 10 The Xiaomi Smart Band 10 doesn’t reinvent the wheel, but it makes meaningful upgrades where it counts, including added training tools and a slightly larger display. For budget-conscious buyers who want reliable tracking, a polished aesthetic, and up to 21 days of battery life, it's a no-brainer. I’ve long tipped my hat to Xiaomi’s Smart Band line (a.k.a. Mi Band in some regions), which nearly always punches above its weight. The latest device, the Xiaomi Smart Band 10, cont

This tiny Gmail change will make it easier to manage your inbox on Android

Calvin Wankhede / Android Authority TL;DR Gmail for Android is testing a new “mark as read” button directly within its notifications, letting users manage their inbox without opening the app. The feature appears to be undergoing A/B testing with a small number of users, as it’s not widely available despite being on the latest app version. This potential addition would bring Gmail’s Android app in line with its iOS counterpart and other email clients that already offer this convenient shortcut

Warner Bros. Gives Up on ‘Akira’ Remake, But Hollywood Won’t

Well, it’s happened. After 20 years of shuffling creative teams and development hell, Warner Bros. finally called it and won’t remake Akira. But things aren’t ending there, according to the Hollywood Reporter. WB’s simply let go of the movie rights it acquired back in 2002. They’ve now returned to the manga’s publisher, Kodansha; according to THR, several producers and talents are already “lining up” for the chance to adapt it.

It’s a tumultuous time for copyright in the United States, with dozens of potentially economy-shaking AI copyright lawsuits winding through the courts. It’s also the most turbulent moment in the US Copyright Office’s history. Described as “sleepy” in the past, the Copyright Office has taken on new prominence during the AI boom, issuing key rulings about AI and copyright. It also hasn’t had a leader in more than a month.

The World Is Producing More Food than Ever—but Not for Long

wired.com Umair Irfan 2025-09-09 14:00:00

This story originally appeared on Vox and is part of the Climate Desk collaboration. Globally, humanity is producing more food than ever, but that harvest is concentrated in just a handful of breadbaskets. More than one-third of the world’s wheat and barley exports come from Ukraine and Russia, for example. Some of these highly productive farmlands, including major crop-growing regions in the United States, are on track to see the sharpest drops in harvests due to climate change. That’s bad n

Many users, myself included, have reported changing their drinking habits after seeing their heart rate's response to a few beers late at night on Oura's graphs. Earning high sleep scores
