We yesterday highlighted what is quite possibly the smallest user-facing change in the latest iOS 26 beta: the ability to revert the camera app slider to its previous direction. While this is in itself a very tiny change, I do think it ought to be a guiding principle for Apple’s approach to user interfaces … To me, there are two different ways in which you can judge a user interface. The first is how intuitive it is. In other words, can you immediately see how to perform a function even if yo

NASA explains how it keeps the Curiosity rover running, 13 years later

engadget.com Unknown 2025-12-19 11:45:30

Thirteen years ago, the Curiosity rover landed on Mars, inside Gale crater in particular. It was originally sent to the red planet for a two-year mission, but it was extended indefinitely just a few months into its operations. The rover has several goals, most of which are meant to help scientists determine whether Mars could ever have supported life in the past.

Rita El Khoury / Android Authority TL;DR Android 16’s upcoming USB Protection feature enhances security by defaulting new USB connections to charging-only when the device is locked. This security measure may interfere with fast charging, as many protocols require data negotiation between the phone and the charger to work. If your phone isn’t fast charging, a simple workaround is to unlock the device and then reconnect the USB cable. Of all the new features in Android 16, Advanced Protection

Olive Oil for Everything? Not So Fast — Here's What Cooking Oil to Use Instead

Cooking oil is one of the most versatile ingredients in any kitchen, but not all oils are created equal. While it's tempting to reach for olive oil every time, the truth is that different oils perform best under different conditions, and using the wrong one can make or break your dish. Olive oil, for example, adds richness and depth to dressings and sautés as well as goodies like proteins and vegetables.
