Is this the electric grid of the future?

Following the unanimous approval by Lancaster County commissioners of a 304-megawatt solar plant outside Lincoln, one of the largest in the state, local opponents appealed. The project’s developer, the Florida-based behemoth NextEra Energy Resources, made news in March when its CEO both praised the Trump administration’s policy and insisted that solar and storage remained the fastest path to increasing the energy supply. Lincoln Electric is headquartered in a gleaming new building named after A

The driver reported the robbery to authorities in Colorado after he discovered the missing cargo. The stolen consoles are worth a whopping $1.4 million.

Hadlee Simons / Android Authority TL;DR GameNative makes it easy to play your Steam library on Android via Winlator. The Pluvia fork adds support for titles with DRM and more optimizations. It’s open-source, but take care when logging in with your Steam credentials. Windows emulation on Android has made some progress lately, but it’s nowhere near as user-friendly as most retro game emulators.

Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority TL;DR An Android Authority teardown has revealed that Gboard could get a variety of tweaks and additions. The keyboard app could soon let you add Emoji Kitchen combos to a favorites list. We also discovered a SmartEdit feature and evidence of tighter integration with the Pixel 10’s Magic Cue feature. Gboard recently gained the ability to create stickers without using Pixel Studio, but it looks like Google isn’t stopping there. In fact, the company is worki

Joe Maring / Android Authority In the Android world, it’s hard to beat Google’s Pixel phones for consistent, lifelike photos. While the HDR-ified look may not be for everyone, there’s no questioning the sheer reliability of a Pixel camera. When you tap the shutter button, you can all but guarantee you’ll get a pleasing and natural picture every single time.

Joe Maring / Android Authority TL;DR Android 16 is causing a very annoying bug where Pixel phones take too long to wake up. Google is aware of the issue and is working on a fix, and temporary workarounds are also available. This is one of several bugs reported by users after the Android 16 update, but there are many more, including freezing lock screens and unresponsive gestures.

I tried to replace my aging Pixelbook with an iPad on iPadOS 26; here’s how it went

Oliver Cragg / Android Authority It’s been nine years since Apple released an ad for the 2016 iPad Pro, which asked, “What is a computer?” That ad has been mocked ever since, as the iPad has always been seen as too compromised compared to a MacBook, Chromebook, or Windows laptop to serve as a full computer replacement for most people. However, iPadOS 26 brings some significant changes to the iPad, and I think it might be enough for the iPad to replace my aged Google Pixelbook. So, I installed

The US ban on TikTok has likely been avoided (again). On Tuesday President Trump signaled his intent to add a 90-day extension to prevent the ban from taking effect on June 19. The extra time is meant to give the Chinese-owned app an opportunity to find a US-approved buyer.
