PSA: Google’s new Pixel Flex Dual Port 67W charger isn’t the same everywhere

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-10-15 03:24:15

Robert Triggs / Android Authority TL;DR Google’s new Pixel Flex Dual Port 67W charger may be missing one feature depending on where you buy it. Users on Reddit point out that the charger’s prongs don’t fold as advertised on Google’s website and Amazon. The lack of foldable prongs may be limited to specific regions, though. Google’s new Pixel Flex Dual Port 67W charger is surely one of the best accessories you can buy for your Pixel 10 phone. The $59.99 USB-C fast charger uses proprietary tec

Another Pixel, another 911 failure: Pixel 10 users say emergency calls sound like screeches

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-10-15 03:37:52

Rita El Khoury / Android Authority TL;DR Pixel 10 series users report that they cannot reliably make 911 calls. The 911 call connects but only delivers garbled, incomprehensible audio, described as “shrill electronic screeches.” Google’s Pixel series has had a long history of not connecting 911 calls. This bug is technically different, but the end result is the same. Google’s Pixel lineup has an unfortunate history of being unable to make 911 calls, a statement that doesn’t incite confidence

Hadlee Simons / Android Authority TL;DR Samsung’s Galaxy Watches are having trouble connecting to Pixel 10 series phones right now. The issue seems widespread, and we can also confirm our Galaxy Watch 8 Classic refuses to pair with our Pixel 10 Pro XL unit. Google seems to be aware of the problem, but it’s unclear if a fix is coming anytime soon.

Unix Conspiracy (1991)

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-10-12 02:48:12

[ITS] According to a conspiracy theory long popular among ITS and TOPS-20 fans, Unix's growth is the result of a plot, hatched during the 1970s at Bell Labs, whose intent was to hobble AT&T's competitors by making them dependent upon a system whose future evolution was to be under AT&T's control. This would be accomplished by disseminating an operating system that is apparently inexpensive and easily portable, but also relatively unreliable and insecure (so as to require continuing upgrades from

CNET's key takeaways After months of using Google's Pixel 9 Pro, I like its solid overall performance and quirky new AI skills. The element that stands out most is how easy it is to use. While Android users swear by them, a lot of other people consider Android phones to feel overly complex. The user interface isn't quite as easy to adjust as Apple's offering. And while it may sound unreasonable, Samsung's Galaxy S25 range, for example, has deep menu settings that let you tweak nearly every as

RIP to Horror Icon Scott Spiegel, Co-Writer of ‘Evil Dead II’

gizmodo.com Cheryl Eddy 2025-10-15 21:30:37

You might not immediately recognize the name Scott Spiegel, but if you—like most horror fans—are a sworn devotee of the legendary splatter comedy Evil Dead II, you are well familiar with his work. Spiegel, who passed away this week at age 67, co-wrote that film with a buddy of his since high school: director Sam Raimi. He had also acted in Within the Woods, Raimi’s proof-of-concept that later helped him make the first Evil Dead. Spiegel’s other credits include co-writing the Clint Eastwood thri

TED leader’s $300M ‘valley of death’ fund might be just what later-stage climate tech needs

techcrunch.com Tim De Chant 2025-10-15 21:42:26

Like many startups, climate tech companies often face a “valley of death” that lies between early stage funding and growth capital that helps proven technologies reach commercial scale. But because climate tech startups are often hardware focused — physical problems tend to require physical solutions, after all — this valley of death tends to be a lot wider. Financing a first-of-a-kind power plant or factory can cost tens or hundreds of millions of dollars. Now, a new fund hopes to bridge this

1,000-Year-Old Viking Object Reveals How They Likely Styled Their Hair

Hair parted in the middle, cropped at the back, with a wavy lock styled above one ear. That’s not my haircut of choice, but if you were an elite Viking, it may well have been. That’s the upshot of a study published last month in the journal Medieval Archaeology in which researchers re-examined a roughly one-inch-tall (three centimeters) Viking gaming piece that dates back more than 1,000 years. It was originally discovered among the burial things of a presumed Viking warrior in Norway in 1797 a
