Coming to Apple OSes: A seamless, secure way to import and export passkeys

Apple this week provided a glimpse into a feature that solves one of the biggest drawbacks of passkeys, the industry-wide standard for website and app authentication that isn't susceptible to credential phishing and other attacks targeting passwords. The import/export feature, which Apple demonstrated at this week’s WWDC 25, will be available in the next major releases of iOS, macOS, iPadOS, and visionOS. It aims to solve one of the biggest shortcomings of passkeys as they have existed to date.

There's a Giant Problem With SpaceX's Starlink Satellites

Astronomers' attempts to peer into the earliest reaches of the universe could be threatened by thousands of SpaceX Starlink satellites leaking radio emissions that ruin observations made with highly sensitive telescopes. As New Scientist reports, a team of researchers led by Curtin University radio astronomy professor Steven Tingay tracked the signals of almost 2,000 Starlink satellites, with the help of a prototype telescope from the Square Kilometre Array, which is currently under constructio

Google services are experiencing a major disruption right now (Update: Mostly fixed)

The coolest visionOS 26 feature is also a hint at Apple’s next home product

This week, Apple unveiled visionOS 26, and one of its standout features is spatial widgets: customizable, three-dimensional elements that users can pin to their surroundings and glance at while wearing an Apple Vision Pro. And while they’re technically impressive and undeniably cool-looking (especially that wall-embedded ones), they might also be Apple’s first hint at what we could expect from a long-rumored smart home product. Spatial widgets in visionOS 26 With customizable Batteries, Calen

Frequent reauth doesn't make you more secure

Frequent reauth doesn't make you more secure You're happily working away, fingers flying, deep in flow, and suddenly, boink, your session has expired. You sigh, re-enter your password (again), complete an MFA challenge (again), maybe approve an email notification (again), and finally — access restored. Until next time. This wasn't so bad when it was just passwords; we all got pretty fast at retyping our passwords. But all those MFA challenges really slow us down. And MFA fatigue attacks, a gro

Do Whole Body Vibration Plates Actually Promote Weight Loss? We Asked Fitness Experts

Countless weight loss and fitness trends have come and gone over the years, from gimmicky products that provided minimal results to science-backed health tools that genuinely worked. You may remember the vibrating belt machines from the mid-20th century that were promoted as weight loss aids. Trends often cycle back around, so it's relatively unsurprising that vibration plates are re-emerging as the latest fitness trend once again. Some claim they are an excellent alternative workout method with

I'm Excited to Play Remedy's FBC: Firebreak and Other Games on Xbox Game Pass

In 2019, Remedy Entertainment released the mind-bending, Kafkaesque game Control. At the time, I loved the idea of a bureaucratic office turned into a violent battlefield filled with office supplies -- like a floppy disk -- that can give you special abilities. So I'm excited to return to that world in FBC: Firebreak when it arrives on Xbox Game Pass on June 17. Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, a CNET Editors' Choice award pick, offers hundreds of games you can play on your Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S,

Tesla sues former Optimus engineer over alleged trade secret theft

Change These 7 Nintendo Switch 2 Settings Before You Play Another Game

Fans are questioning why the brightness looks off on the Nintendo Switch 2 and getting frustrated with the functions of the A and B buttons. Fortunately, these are easily tweaked in the Settings menu, but they're not easily found. Since the Switch 2 has been out for only a week, a lot of people are still exploring all that it can do while enjoying their new portable gaming machine. It's understandable to just rip the package open and start playing, but to get the most out of the Switch successor

Electric Cooler vs. Ice Cooler: I Went Camping With Both to See Which Is Better

I've observed that the electrification of any product brings with it a higher price for interested buyers. Case in point, everything from cars to bikes to coolers, once electrified, costs a lot more than their legacy counterparts. With that said, the benefits of a tool powered by electricity can't be understated. With that said, if you're planning camping trips this summer and need a new cooler, I've set out to test a "regular" icebox-style cooler against Anker's new Solix EverFrost 2 to see ho

Engineer creates first custom motherboard for 1990s PlayStation console

Last week, electronics engineer Lorentio Brodesco announced the completion of a mock-up for nsOne, reportedly the first custom PlayStation 1 motherboard created outside of Sony in the console's 30-year history. The fully functional board accepts original PlayStation 1 chips and fits directly into the original console case, marking a milestone in reverse-engineering for the classic console released in 1994. Brodesco's motherboard isn't an emulator or FPGA-based re-creation—it's a genuine circuit

Apple quietly fixed an iPhone zero-day flaw that was used against journalists

Today, Apple confirmed (via TechCrunch) that a zero-day flaw used to deploy mercenary spyware onto journalists’ iPhones was quietly patched earlier this year, with the iOS 18.3.1 update. The flaw, disclosed today in an updated security advisory, was exploited by Israeli surveillance firm Paragon, to hack into the phones of at least two European journalists. According to Citizen Lab, which investigated the attacks, Apple fixed the issue in iOS 18.3.1, released back in February, but didn’t menti

Google DeepMind is sharing its AI forecasts with the National Weather Service

It launched a new website where you can see its predictions. Here's an AI-government collaboration of a less… unsettling variety than some. Google DeepMind is teaming up with the National Hurricane Center (NHC) for tropical cyclone season. The AI research lab claims it can predict hurricane paths and intensities with at least the same accuracy as traditional methods. NHC forecasters have already begun using DeepMind's AI model. Google says they're designed to support, not replace, human NHC fo

After 18 Years, Apple Is Killing Its 9-Minute Snooze—That Can Only Mean One Thing

For years, it’s always been nine more measly minutes. If you don’t know what the hell I’m talking about, you’ve probably never owned an iPhone, or you’re one of those freaks who wakes up without a device screaming in your face to do so. If you are in one of those camps, let me explain: for 18 years, Apple has maintained a vice grip on its alarm snooze feature, which grants nine more minutes to your alarm. No more, no less. Just nine minutes. And there’s no adjusting that in settings. No adjusti

“Two years of work in two months”: States cope with Trump broadband overhaul

The Trump administration has upended plans that state governments made to distribute $42 billion in federal broadband funding, forcing state officials to scrap much of the preparation work they did over the previous couple of years. Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick essentially put the Broadband Equity, Access, and Deployment (BEAD) program on hold earlier this year and last week announced details of a rules overhaul that requires states to change how they distribute money to Internet servic

Apple fixes new iPhone zero-day bug used in Paragon spyware hacks

Researchers revealed on Thursday that two European journalists had their iPhones hacked with spyware made by Paragon. Apple now says it has fixed the bug that was used to hack their phones. Citizen Lab wrote in its report, shared with TechCrunch ahead of its publication, that Apple had told its researchers that the flaw exploited in the attacks had been “mitigated in iOS 18.3.1,” a software update for iPhones released on February 10. Until this week, the advisory of that security update only m

Congress Demands Answers on Data Privacy Ahead of 23andMe Sale

US Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Jan Schakowsky on Thursday sent letters to the two potential buyers of troubled genetic testing firm 23andMe demanding details about consumer data privacy should either of them acquire the company.

Out of Words is an emotional co-op adventure illustrated with beautiful stop-motion animation

The two main characters of Out of Words are young teens who are falling in love in a coming of age story. But then disaster strikes as they lose their mouths. They try to talk, but can’t anymore. Their mouths are sewn shut. And so begins Out of Words, a co-op platformer adventure. Of all the games that I saw at the Summer Game Fest, this one was the best. The goal of the game is to find the lost voices of the puppet-animated characters. But unfortunately, we’ll have to wait for a while. It’s c
