Here’s what Apple Intelligence summarized news notifications look like on iOS 26

9to5mac.com Benjamin Mayo 2026-01-08 02:11:51

After launching notification summaries as one of the flagship features of Apple Intelligence, Apple disabled the feature for apps in the News and Entertainment categories in the iOS 18.3 update, following backlash from publications like the BBC about Apple Intelligence portraying its news headlines inaccurately. Having been disabled entirely for these apps since mid-January, Apple announced this week the feature will return as part of iOS 26. Users running the developer have noticed that these

The best music headphones of 2025: Expert tested and reviewed

zdnet.com Christian De Looper 2026-01-07 23:00:18

In theory, all headphones should sound great when you're listening to music, but not all are specifically designed to provide a high-quality music listening experience. That's not always a bad thing, as some headphones are built more to offer lots of features and good noise-cancelation, while others focus more on a sleek and stylish design. Still, some headphones are designed more with high-quality sound in mind. These headphones don't always have excellent noise-cancelation or some of the high

Tesla’s Nightmare Continues as Musk Warns of ‘Rough Quarters’ Ahead

gizmodo.com Luc Olinga 2026-01-07 21:14:11

Tesla’s second-quarter earnings paint a grim picture: falling profits, slumping sales, and a reputation hit that keeps on hurting. The all-electric carmaker reported net income of $1.17 billion, down 16.3% from the same period in 2024. Revenue fell 12% to $22.5 billion from $25.5 billion a year earlier, marking Tesla’s second consecutive quarter of declining profits and revenue this year. The cause is clear: Tesla is selling fewer cars and cutting prices to chase demand. Deliveries fell 13.5%

I Tried Orb, a New Internet Speed Test. It Might Be the Best I've Ever Used

Internet speed tests aren't just for people who obsess over their internet speeds. When my friends or parents are experiencing an inevitable home internet slowdown, I recommend always starting with a speed test. I've tested and used dozens of internet speed tests. The market is pretty saturated with them. Ideally, the best internet speed test diagnoses your bandwidth blues as simply as possible -- no ads, no extra features you can't make sense of, and no slowing down your Wi-Fi. Speed tests are

Mission Barns is betting that animal-free pork fat will make artificial meat delicious

techcrunch.com Tim De Chant 2026-01-08 02:00:00

An old colleague always had a curious request at lunchtime. For health reasons, he was vegetarian, but he still missed the taste of ground beef. So he’d ask the chef in the cafeteria for a veggie burger that was cooked next to the beef patties. The grease that seeped over made the plant substitute taste that much better. The folks at Mission Barns must have overheard our lunchtime conversation. They have developed animal-free, cultured pork fat. The product just received approval from the U.S.

Electric cars produce far less brake dust pollution than combustion-engine cars

Sony is finally making it possible to pair a DualSense with more than one device

Sony is bringing a welcome quality-of-life feature to the PlayStation 5. In the next PS5 system update beta, players will be able to have their DualSense controllers synced with multiple hardware platforms at the same time. That means you could swap a controller from a PS5 to your gaming PC to your smartphone without needing to re-pair the DualSense each time. Up to four devices can be simultaneously paired with a single controller, and each of them will be mapped to one of the action buttons.
