Google’s Big Leap Forward for Real-Time Translations Is Deepfaking Your Voice

gizmodo.com James Pero 2025-11-16 11:15:57

I can’t count the number of times I’ve been promised the Next Big Thing in app-enabled translation. Since the dawn of Google Translate, it’s felt like tech companies (not just Google, but Samsung and Apple, too) have been teasing a future where speech can be translated instantaneously, allowing for near-seamless communication between people from *sarcastic SpongeBob voice* across the world. But the truth is, that future, however enticing on paper, hasn’t exactly panned out. As incredible as app

Spirit Halloween Has Made the Most Affordable ‘Jurassic Park’ Goggles Replica We’ve Seen

gizmodo.com Sabina Graves 2025-11-16 14:45:21

The iconic T. rex escape scene is seared into the collective core memory of Jurassic Park fans. Steven Spielberg’s blockbuster franchise is full of memorable moments, from the jiggling water to the lawyer running to the bathroom. But if you, like me, had the film as one of your earliest and most life-changing cinema-going experiences, there’s not a detail forgotten—especially not the goggles. You know the ones that Tim grabs and the lawyer tells him to put back, because if they’re heavy, “they’r

John Cena Digs Into Peacemaker’s Big ‘Suicide Squad’ Kill

Season two of Peacemaker will finally have Rick Flag Sr. (Frank Grillo) coming in hot for Chris Smith (John Cena) to exact revenge over the death of his son. Killing his squad leader, Rick Flag (Joel Kinnaman), in James Gunn’s The Suicide Squad was a moment that made Peacemaker irredeemable before being hilariously unpacked in season one of the HBO Max show, which centered the antihero’s mistake as something that broke him—that and the bullet Bloodsport (Idris Elba) put through his neck.

America’s fragile drug supply chain is extremely vulnerable to climate change

arstechnica.com Unknown 2025-11-16 23:32:35

When Hurricane Helene ravaged western North Carolina in September 2024, one of its many victims was a manufacturing plant that made intravenous fluids. The sterile IV solutions produced in the plant are essential supplies for hospitals and other medical facilities, which use them in various treatments, from rehydration to drug delivery and kidney dialysis. And the plant damaged by Helene—Baxter International's North Cove manufacturing facility in Marion—didn't just make some of the US supply; it

Google Pixel 10 vs Samsung Galaxy S25: The choice is clear for me

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-11-16 23:00:10

While Google’s Pixel line has gained momentum over the years, I’ve always felt that Samsung’s Galaxy S series was the safer bet. It delivered a more premium build, faster internals, and a strong reliability track record. But with the Pixel 10 series now officially announced, Google seems to have addressed those shortcomings head-on. That begs the question: Is the Pixel 10 good enough to take on the Galaxy S25 series?

This is the Ultimate '90s Cyberpunk Movie (No, It's Not 'The Matrix')

The cyberpunk movement has given us some of the best science fiction movies: Blade Runner, Ghost in the Shell and, yes, The Matrix. But there's one great tech noir flick that came out at the height of the cyberpunk craze -- and then all but disappeared. Maybe that's partly because of its title. I'd wanted to rewatch Strange Days for a long time, but I kept forgetting because, honestly, I couldn't remember what it was called. Then I finally rediscovered the sci-fi thriller on Hulu.
