How to clear your iPhone cache (and why it greatly improves the performance)

zdnet.com Elyse Betters Picaro 2026-02-01 20:00:18

What is cache? Cache -- or browser cache -- is the temporary storage of website files. So, things like images, scripts, and cookies that your browser saves on your phone to make pages load faster the next time you visit.

But something happened to German universities at the turn of the 19th century — they develo

gizmodo.com James Pero 2026-02-02 08:17:47

Samsung’s newest generation of Fold and Flip folding phones is here, and this year, it has quite a bit to parade around. The Galaxy Fold 7, for example, is hella thin and almost as slim as a Galaxy S25 Ultra when it’s folded up, while the Galaxy Z Flip 7 has a bigger front-facing screen that spans 4.1 inches. However much the foldables have going on in the hardware department, there’s even more going on inside with AI. The only difference is that Samsung has almost nothing to do with those AI de

While human umpires will still make the first call at the All-Star Game on July 15, Major League Baseball plans to let teams use a robot umpire to challenge rulings, ESPN reports. The automated ball-strike (ABS) system has been around for years in one form or another, but relying on a computer's judgement of a pitch has yet to become a permanent fixture of major league play.

Last month, the United Nations released a report alleging that many major global corporations, including several Big Tech companies, have profited off of Israel’s ongoing genocidal assault on Gaza because of their insistence on continuing to do business with the Israeli government and military.
