What Does 'Awe Dropping' Even Mean? Decoding Apple's iPhone 17 Event Announcement

cnet.com See Full Bio 2025-10-27 15:00:05

Apple's big fall event is less than a week away, and we're still puzzling over the tagline and animated logo that accompanied invitations to the Sept. 9 "Awe dropping" gathering. Is the iconic Apple logo on fire? Does it portend a new heat-sensing feature of the Vision Pro that will make you feel like a Predator hunting prey through the jungle? Or maybe a designer at Apple just came up with a cool-looking effect and thought it would be fun to use it? Nah, the company has a history of enigmatic

ReMarkable Paper Pro Move Review: A Small Yet Mighty Digital Notebook

wired.com Nena Farrell 2025-10-27 16:00:00

I love a list. I can happily write the same to-do list in six different places in a single day (good thing I test digital notebooks and paper planners). I often find myself rewriting the little brainstorms in my Notes app because the ideas are still banging around in my brain, asking to be let free onto a page, digital or not. But not every brainstorm or list needs a full-size page. That's where ReMarkable's latest digital notebook comes in. The reMarkable Paper Pro Move ($449) takes the same t

Dolby Atmos FlexConnect Lets You Place Speakers Anywhere

wired.com Simon Cohen 2025-10-27 16:03:00

For years, there have been just two options for better TV sound: A traditional, AV receiver-based home theater system or a soundbar. The AV receiver route is undeniably the best way to go for a truly cinematic experience, but only the most diehard audiophiles are willing to deal with hulking metal boxes, yards of speaker wire, and a minimum of five speakers (plus a subwoofer) that must be placed just so. That’s before you delve into the often arcane settings needed for peak performance. Soundb

Alphabet stock pops 6% in premarket trading after Google avoids break-up in antitrust case

The Google logo is seen outside a building housing Google offices in Beijing on February 4, 2025. China on February 4 said it would probe US tech giant Google over violations of anti-monopoly laws after Washington slapped 10 percent levies on Chinese goods.

On July 18, after more than a decade of legal uncertainty, US lawmakers finally brought part of the crypto industry into the regulatory fold. The newly signed Guiding and Establishing National Innovation for US Stablecoins (GENIUS) Act requires issuers of stablecoins—cryptocurrencies that claim a value tied to a more stable asset—to fully back their tokens with cash or short-term Treasury bonds, submit to audits, and follow anti-money laundering rules, among other conditions.

Grids are great for tactical gameplay of turn-based games because they allow discrete movement steps. That means that you can bind positioning to other resources such as movement points, action points, food, etc. Grids divide the infinite variety of movement options into a few specific ones, which can be considered separately by the player’s tactical mind.
