OnePlus will limit bootloader unlocking, but it’s not all bad news

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-11-21 08:00:10

Joe Maring / Android Authority TL;DR OnePlus is placing new restrictions on bootloader unlocking. It requires filling out an application form and limits the number of requests to one every 30 days. Thankfully, these limitations only apply to Chinese users (so far) and only on devices running at least ColorOS 16 based on Android 16. Android has evolved significantly in the last decade, and one noticeable shift has been in the decline of custom development in Android. Custom ROMs or mods are f

9to5mac.com Marcus Mendes 2025-11-21 10:21:54

In a new study, a group of Apple researchers describe a very interesting approach they took to, basically, get an open-source model to teach itself how to build good user interface code in SwiftUI. Here’s how they did it. In the paper UICoder: Finetuning Large Language Models to Generate User Interface Code through Automated Feedback, the researchers explain that while LLMs have gotten better at multiple writing tasks, including creative writing and coding, they still struggle to “reliably gene

gizmodo.com Passant Rabie 2025-11-22 15:15:17

The move highly favors companies like SpaceX but could have negative repercussions on environmental habitats surrounding launchpads. On Wednesday, August 13, Trump signed an executive order intended to bolster the spaceflight industry and increase the overall commercial launch cadence. In it, Trump calls on Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy, who

What is Bluesky? Everything to know about the X competitor

Is the grass greener on the other side? We’re not sure, but the sky is most certainly bluer. It’s been over two years since Elon Musk purchased Twitter, now X, leading people to set up shop on alternative platforms. Mastodon, Post, Pebble (two of which have already shuttered operations) and Spill have been presented as potential replacements, but few aside from Meta’s Threads have achieved the speed of growth Bluesky has reached.

Reported plans for Apple’s tabletop robot seem both excellent and awful

Yesterday’s Bloomberg report on Apple’s upcoming tabletop robot didn’t reveal anything new about the hardware, but plans to give it a personality could represent a huge gamble.

Elon Musk's DOGE Was Far More of a Dismal Failure Than We Thought

futurism.com Unknown 2025-11-24 14:50:33

Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency originally promised to save the government $2 trillion in waste. That target quickly dropped to $1 trillion. Then in April, Musk started intimating that the savings would only be in the region of $150 billion, making it clear to all but his most diehard supporters that DOGE was failing on its own terms — even going by its own dubious estimates of its progress. Now, it's looking like those purported "savings" are somehow even more pitiful than onc
