Joe Maring / Android Authority TL;DR Microsoft is testing a new feature on its Edge browser for Android that lets you play videos in the background. The feature can be enabled through the Edge flags page. It works on YouTube, so you can play YouTube videos in the background. Edge Canary for Android also offers a built-in ad blocker that works on YouTube. One of the main benefits of subscribing to the $14 YouTube Premium plan is that it allows you to play videos in the background. But you mig

Joe Maring / Android Authority The T-Mobile Money service was recently folded into the T-Life app, and as you might expect, the transition has been rough.

Ryan Haines / Android Authority TL;DR Some Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 owners have reported chipped paint on their phones. Many owners claimed that they haven’t dropped their devices. It’s possible that chargers are affecting the anodized body of the Z Fold 7, much like the Z Fold 6. The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 has been on the market for just over a month now, and we praised the foldable phone in our review.

First things first: the Anker F3800 Plus is expensive! It has a retail price of $4,799. It’s a worthwhile investment if you can take advantage of everything it offers, though. The Anker F3800 Plus comes with a hefty 3,840Wh battery capacity. It can literally charge your phone hundreds of times. Of course, you’re not getting this to charge your phone.

The best smart home gadgets for 2025

Our favorite Google-powered smart display is the second-generation Nest Hub. It has a 7-inch screen, which makes it just big enough to fit in most rooms in the house. The size also makes it work well as a digital photo frame. You can set it up to pull in pictures of friends and family from your Google Photos library, and there’s a smart algorithm that automatically uses the best shots while avoiding the blurry ones.

Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold vs. Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7: Here's the clear winner after testing both

zdnet.com Prakhar Khanna 2025-11-02 06:00:17

Joseph Maldonado and Kerry Wan/ZDNET The Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold has finally arrived, and it isn't taking on the Galaxy Z Fold 7 with a generational design leap. Instead, it competes by adding quality-of-life features -- a couple of which are industry-firsts for a foldable phone. If you are ready to upgrade from a slab phone to a foldable one, now is the best time to do so. However, it can be confusing to make a decision when both Google and Samsung book-style foldables are so good this year.

These Wireless Earbuds Have a Screen, ChatGPT, and a Cute Robot Face—but They Sound Terrible

I like wireless earbuds because I love music. It’s very straightforward; music exists, and I want to listen to it, and wireless earbuds are the thing that gets me to the thing I love. Problem solved. You can’t see it, but I’m smugly dusting my hands right now like a mathematician at a chalkboard. There’s a symbiosis between the buds and me. A simplicity.

Ford and the Birth of the Model T

This is an excerpt from my forthcoming book, The Origins of Efficiency, out September 23rd. Ford’s status as a large-volume car producer began with the predecessor to the Model T: the Model N, a four-cylinder, two-seater car initially priced at $500. At the time, the average car in the US cost more than $2,000, and it seemed nearly unimaginable that a car with the capabilities of the Model N could cost so little. In 1906, the year the Model N was introduced, Ford sold 8,500 of them, making the

It appears that it was US military communications doctrine to not send the exact same message twice using different encryption ("none" counting as one type of encryption), and the term of art for changing a message to avoid that was indeed "paraphrase".
