While "there's not a ton of evidence out there to firmly say one supplement is going to help you over another," Mysore said, glucosamine likely has the most evidence backing its use. Glucosamine naturally occurs in our bodies -- it's in your cartilage and helps your joints function. A glucosamine supplement is believed to help with arthritis in that it can bring down some of the pain brought on by osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis. According to the Arthritis Foundation, glucosamine is commo

Samsung may build Qualcomm’s most advanced chip ever for the Galaxy S26 series

androidauthority.com Unknown 2026-03-25 01:18:30

C. Scott Brown / Android Authority TL;DR Samsung could reportedly fabricate one variant of the Snapdragon 8 Elite 2 for Qualcomm. While the normal chip would be made with a 3nm TSMC process, Samsung’s could be a 2nm chip. This 2nm Snapdragon 8 Elite 2 may debut with the Galaxy S26. There’s arguably no single component that more influences how a smartphone comes together than the choice of its system-on-a-chip (SoC).

9to5mac.com Marcus Mendes 2026-03-25 01:53:29

The App Store is back under scrutiny from lawmakers in Washington. A bipartisan group of senators has reintroduced the 2021 Open App Markets Act, a bill aimed at curbing the gatekeeper power that Apple and Google hold over the so-called “mobile app economy.” Here’s what they’re going for. If passed, the legislation would effectively force Apple and Google (who are not specifically named in the text) to allow sideloading, support third-party app stores, permit alternate payment systems, and stop
