T-mobile is offering a 6-month trial of Apple TV Plus for new and existing users

Joe Maring / Android Authority TL;DR For a limited time, most T-Mobile plans that don’t include Apple TV Plus are already eligible for a six-month Apple TV Plus trial, even if you have used a trial before. The offer ends July 28th, but T-Mobile notes there are limited quantities and so you’ll need to act sooner rather than later. You can sign up today from the T-Life app, but be aware that a few plans won’t receive this offer, like Simple Choice and the “4 for $100”. While Apple TV Plus is a

Beware! Research shows Gmail’s AI email summaries can be hacked

Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority TL;DR A researcher recently demonstrated a Gemini flaw that could be exploited to inject malicious instructions while using Gmail’s email summary feature. These instructions were hidden in plain text under the body of the email. Google responded to the research, stating that it had updated its models to identify such prompt engineering measures and block phishing links.

Apple announces $500 million US investment focused on rare earth magnets

Earlier this year, Apple pledged a $500 billion investment in the United States over the next four years. Now, the company is further expanding that pledge with a $500 million plan to “launch an all-new recycling facility for processing recycled rare earth elements.” With this investment, Apple will work with MP Materials and commit to buying American-made rare earth magnets developed in Fort Worth, Texas.

Win, lose, or draw: trends in English football match results

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-09-17 15:23:55

Is the game getting more exciting? Football (soccer) fans like to see exciting matches. Draws are boring but wins or losses are interesting; fans want to see teams give their all on the pitch. Which begs the question, is the game getting more or less thrilling over time? One way to answer this question is to look at fraction of matches in a league that end in a draw. The most boring extreme is every game is a draw (draw fraction = 1). The most engaging extreme is that every game ends in a win/l

Starlink vs. T-Mobile 5G Home Internet: Clash of the Broadband Disruptors

So, what makes Starlink and T-Mobile 5G Home Internet the biggest names in rural broadband? One word: Availability. Both providers offer extensive wireless coverage in places where fiber and cable can't reach, making them a top option for rural communities. While Starlink has effectively revolutionized satellite internet with its fleet of low Earth orbit satellites, and has reportedly doubled its speeds compared to two years ago, we would still recommend T-Mobile 5G Home Internet.

6 Best Android Tablets (2025), Tested and Reviewed

AI text-to-speech programs could “unlearn” how to imitate certain people

technologyreview.com Peter Hall 2025-09-21 18:00:16

AI companies generally keep a tight grip on their models to discourage misuse. For example, if you ask ChatGPT to give you someone’s phone number or instructions for doing something illegal, it will likely just tell you it cannot help. However, as many examples over time have shown, clever prompt engineering or model fine-tuning can sometimes get these models to say things they otherwise wouldn’t.

iPhone Fold could be cheaper than the Galaxy Z Fold 7 or 8

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-09-21 16:19:36

TL;DR Apple could achieve a lower iPhone Fold manufacturing cost, allowing for a price under $2,000. The iPhone Fold could cost about 4% less to manufacture than the China-exclusive Galaxy Z Fold Special Edition from last year. This is likely possible with Apple opting for smaller screens and emphasizing less on sleekness than Samsung. The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 is an exquisite foldable phone, but its $2,000 price likely makes it unreachable for many. While Apple is expected to enter the seg

Pixel Watch 4 battery upgrade is coming, but don’t expect magic

TL;DR Google’s next-generation Pixel Watch models could get a modest battery capacity increase. The 41mm Pixel Watch 4 may arrive with a 327mAh battery, and the 45mm Watch 3 getting a 459mAh component. Compared to Watch 3 models, that would represent a capacity increase of 7% and 9%, respectively. What do you expect from a new generation of wearables?

Gemini Space needs to fix a Pixel home screen issue we’ve had for years

Joe Maring / Android Authority Thanks to a recent APK teardown, we discovered that Google’s At a Glance feature on Pixel phones is getting a major overhaul. What we know as At a Glance will be rebranded as “Gemini Space,” and with that, Google is also adding more contextual cards to the longstanding widget — including sports scores, birthday reminders, finance updates, and more. From what we’ve seen, Gemini Space aims to show a lot more contextual info than At a Glance currently does, bringing

But the operative word here is "electronics," which is not as all-encompassing as some people might think. Appliances (like refrigerators and toaster ovens) are obviously electronic devices, but they're in a different class from most electronics because of the amperage demands they need to function.

Google's Reverse Acquihire of Windsurf and the Future of AI Developer Tools
