10 Ways Apple Can Make the Apple Watch Series 11 Worth the Upgrade

cnet.com See Full Bio 2025-10-14 02:00:06

With Apple's next big launch event just days away and WatchOS 26 nearly finalized in its developer and public betas, we're starting to get a clearer picture of what could be in store for Apple Watches this fall. If you're holding out for the next Apple Watch (most likely the Series 11, with new Ultra 3 and SE versions in the mix) the big question isn't just how Apple will build on last year's Series 10, but what it can add to stay ahead as rivals like the Pixel Watch 4 and Galaxy Watch 8 are pus

I didn’t think I’d like any of these Pixel 10 features, but Google proved me wrong

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-10-14 07:00:41

If I’m honest, Google made me a little nervous when it introduced the Pixel 10 series. Not because I thought it was about to ruin the things I love about its flagships, but because it seemed like Google was starting to run out of ideas for clever software features. Everything it hung its hat on, from Magic Cue to the Daily Hub, seemed like a careful copy of someone else’s idea, and it took some of the wind out of my sails. I should have known better. Yes, the Pixel 10 series does have a familia

Almost anything you give sustained attention to will begin to loop on itself

news.ycombinator.com Henrik Karlsson 2025-10-14 07:29:49

Brioches and Knife, Eliot Hodgkin, 08/1961 1. When people talk about the value of paying attention and slowing down, they often make it sound prudish and monk-like. Attention is something we “have to protect.” And we have to “pay” attention—like a tribute. But we shouldn’t forget how interesting and overpoweringly pleasurable sustained attention can be. Slowing down makes reality vivid, strange, and hot. Let me start with the most obvious example. As anyone who has had good sex knows, susta

Samsung Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra hands-on: Really thin, redesigned S Pen and... remember Dex?

Someone recently asked me: Who even cares about Android tablets anymore? If that's you, you're probably feeling the same indifference towards premium Android tablets. Even Google has conceded it won’t be making new tablets and seems to have already forgotten about the Pixel Tablet. But that’s not stopping Samsung from releasing the 11th-generation Galaxy Tab S11 series, comprising the 11-inch standard model and 14.6-inch Ultra.

‘Alien: Earth’ Showrunner Discusses the Timing of His Mini ‘Alien’ Movie, Plus That Huge Twist

We’ve all watched Alien movies on TV, but we’ve never had a new one made for it. That’s what happened this week, though, with the latest episode of Alien: Earth. Titled “In Space, No One…”, the episode flashed back to the events aboard the USCSS Maginot, which made it crash down to Earth. Events that, as you can imagine, involved lots of killer aliens.

Onion CEO Ben Collins Hasn't Given Up on Print—or Buying Infowars

Ben Collins made a big bet. A year ago, just a few months after he’d been named CEO of The Onion, he relaunched its print edition. Once a favorite on university campuses, The Onion hadn’t published a physical issue since 2013. Common wisdom said that readership, and advertising dollars, just weren’t there for newspapers. But Collins, a fan of the satirical paper since childhood, thought “that’s dumb.” Readers celebrated The Onion’s relaunch and the ability to read all of its bitingly funny head

Trump’s New History Exhibit Features Fake Quotes From AI-Generated Founding Fathers

gizmodo.com Matt Novak 2025-10-15 15:25:03

The White House recently commissioned a new history exhibit in Washington, D.C. created by the far-right “education” group PragerU. The exhibit features 82 paintings and 40 AI videos, presenting a rather distorted view of America’s founding. The AI-generated videos even include fake quotes from the founding fathers, including one that seems like a joke. But the folks at PragerU are serious about their mission, even if the intention is to own the libs. What kind of quotes are we talking about?

That’s why we must pass my bipartisan American Innovation and Choice Online Act to stop dominant platforms like Google from continuing to unfairly preference their own products over competitors’ — which hurts consumers and entrepreneurs, and stifles innovation.
