Early ‘Fantastic Four: First Steps’ Reactions Say It’s…Well, Y’know,

We’re less than a full week away from Fantastic Four: First Steps, and Marvel’s already gone and let early watchers give their thoughts on the film. That’s nothing terribly new, save for these thoughts come ahead of the film’s Hollywood premiere on Monday night, when they were originally meant to drop. But it’s not without reason, as the impressions are quite glowing, even moreso than last weekend’s Superman or Thunderbolts* from a few months ago. Check out the impressions from critics and influ

Mr Browser – Macintosh Repository file downloader that runs directly on 68k Macs

What is MR Browser? MR Browser is a small utility app allowing very old Macs from the 90's that are too old to use a normal web browser, but are new enough to connect to the internet through TCP/IP, to access Macintosh Repository online services, e.g. to directly download files without the help of a modern computer. For now, it's limited to only listing files smaller than 1GB, considering it's only meant to run on mid 90's System 7 environments. Note: Before downloading files with MR Browser, to

Samsung Galaxy Flip 7 FE vs. Motorola Razr 2025: Battle of the Budget Foldables

Samsung just unveiled its $900 Galaxy Flip 7 FE, the most affordable foldable phone the company has ever released. Despite that position in Samsung's history, the Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE is still notably pricier than the $700 Motorola Razr 2025, leaving a decided gap in cost that makes their value comparison even more intriguing. That's because Samsung and Motorola have been neck and neck in pushing the envelope for clamshell foldables. The first modern-era Motorola Razr came out in early 2020 and t

What is Mistral AI? Everything to know about the OpenAI competitor

Mistral AI, the French company behind AI assistant Le Chat and several foundational models, is officially regarded as one of France’s most promising tech startups and is arguably the only European company that could compete with OpenAI. But compared to its $6 billion valuation, its global market share is still relatively low. However, the recent launch of its chat assistant on mobile app stores was met with some hype, particularly in its home country. “Go and download Le Chat, which is made by

The best Android phones

The Android ecosystem is all about choice. While iPhone owners have a smaller pool of new devices to pick from when it’s time to upgrade, there’s a wider range of choices on Android. Some Android phones even fold in half! Imagine. On the flip side, all that choice can make for some hard decisions. Here’s where I’d like to help;

Max severity Cisco ISE bug allows pre-auth command execution, patch now

A critical vulnerability (CVE-2025-20337) in Cisco's Identity Services Engine (ISE) could be exploited to let an unauthenticated attacker store malicious files, execute arbitrary code, or gain root privileges on vulnerable devices. The security issue received the maximum severity rating, 10 out of 10, and is caused by insufficient user-supplied input validation checks. It was discovered by Kentaro Kawane, a researcher at the Japanese cybersecurity service GMO Cybersecurity by Ierae, and report

I Finally Held a Foldable That Doesn't Feel Like Two Stacked Phones: The Galaxy Z Fold 7

Holding the Galaxy Z Fold 7, I have to remind myself this is not just any ordinary phone. The wildly thin design and wider cover screen makes this generation of Samsung's foldable feel incredibly normal, at least when it's closed. When it's unfolded, it's a whole different story. I got to check out the Z Fold 7 at Samsung's Unpacked event in New York last week, along with the Z Flip 7 and Z Flip 7 FE. I've used many foldable phones, but the feel of the Z Fold 7 struck me as being the future of

After 6 months, I’m still not over Samsung’s lazy Galaxy S25 launch

Back in January, when Samsung launched the three main phones in the Galaxy S25 series, I wasn’t shy with my criticism. I openly wondered why the Galaxy S25 and Galaxy S25 Plus even exist, and pointed out how the Galaxy S25 Ultra is such a nominal upgrade over the Galaxy S24 Ultra that it’s a wonder Samsung didn’t drop the price. Surprisingly, at the time, Samsung teased that a significant part of the Galaxy S25 family was yet to come: an ultra-thin, ultra-lightweight phone called the Galaxy S25

This includes new registrations as well as adding as additional addresses.

New Fortinet FortiWeb hacks likely linked to public RCE exploits

Multiple Fortinet FortiWeb instances recently infected with web shells are believed to have been compromised using public exploits for a recently patched remote code execution (RCE) flaw tracked as CVE-2025-25257.

The vulnerability is identified as CVE-2025-6558 and received a high-severity rating of 8.8. It was discovered by researchers at Google’s Threat Analysis Group (TAG) on June 23. The security issue is described as an insufficient validation of untrusted input in ANGLE and GPU that affects Google Chrome versions before 1

Six Years of Gemini

2025-06-20 - Six years of Gemini! Today is the sixth anniversary of the public announcement of Project Gemini! It's been a quiet year at geminiprotocol.net thus far. I've let two "Apollo days" slip by without a word. I'm about as disappointed in myself for this as I expect many folks are unsurprised by it. I do still have plans and clear ideas for finalising the minor oustanding spec issues. I'd tell people to look forward to something by Apollo 15 day (2025-11-03), but at this point, who'd be

I replaced my Galaxy S25 Plus with the S25 Edge (and Samsung may do the same)

Kerry Wan/ZDNET The Galaxy S25 Edge was my unexpected favorite phone in Samsung's S-series lineup this year. I previously wrote about how it had one major fault, but is the compact phone for content consumption in 2025. It just might not make sense to exist alongside the Plus model with the adoption of silicon-carbon batteries -- and Samsung might agree. Also: Samsung's ultra-thin Galaxy phone is a greatly misunderstood device - and I shamelessly love it According to a new report from The Ele

Galaxy S25 Ultra vs. iPhone 16 Pro: Best Camera Phones Compared

The photography skills of the iPhone 16 Pro and Galaxy S25 Ultra are among the best money can buy, taking pics that can rival even dedicated mirrorless cameras. And with travel season ramping up, carrying a phone may be the most convenient way of always having a powerful camera with you. But when it comes to overall image quality, how do these two mobile titans compare? To find out, I shot hundreds of photos using both phones in a variety of conditions to see which takes the best images. What's

I replaced my Samsung S25 Ultra with the S25 Edge - here's why I opted for the slim model

ZDNET's key takeaways The Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge currently sells for $999 for the 12GB of RAM and 512GB of storage configuration. With its sleek profile and solid hardware, this phone sets a new standards for mobile devices. You'll have to settle with subpar battery life and the absence of a telephoto lens due to the limited size.

The Galaxy S25 FE might outpace the base S25 in one key area

Ryan Haines / Android Authority TL;DR A regulatory filing has apparently listed the Galaxy S25 FE with 45W wired charging speeds. This would be a major upgrade over previous FE phones and the standard Galaxy S25. Previous leaks also point to the same chipset and rear camera system as last year’s phone. Samsung’s next big Android phone release is tipped to be the Galaxy S25 FE, and we’re not expecting many upgrades this year. However, a regulatory filing has apparently revealed one long-overd

Predicting Competitive Pokémon VGC Leads Using Latent Semantic Analysis

Bruno Luvizotto Carli Universidade Federal do Paraná, Curitiba, PR, Brazil. brunolcarli (at) gmail (dot) com Download PDF Competitive Pokémon battles often hinge on the initial selection of Pokémon leads. Anticipating an opponent’s lead choice offers a tactical edge, particularly in high-stakes matches. In this paper, I explore the use of Latent Semantic Analysis (LSA), a natural language processing algorithm, applied to over 5,000 Pokémon Showdown battle logs, to predict likely lead pairs b

As Sales Drop, Tesla Makes a Big Gamble on India

Tesla is finally entering India. The all-electric carmaker will open its first showroom in the country on July 15 in Mumbai, marking a long-awaited entry into one of the largest and fastest-growing automotive markets in the world. Invitations to the launch event began circulating on social media late last week. “Launch Event. Exclusive Invite,” the sleek black cards read. “Tesla Experience Center BKC.” The event is scheduled to take place from 11:00 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. local time, with guests as

Tesla Makes a Desperate Move in Canada as Sales Collapse

Tesla is making a desperate move to stay alive in Canada as its sales suffer from the fallout of Donald Trump’s trade war. In a quiet but shocking update to its website, the electric vehicle maker has drastically lowered the price of its best-selling Model Y SUV by a staggering $20,000. The move is a direct response to a brutal trade dispute that has crippled Tesla’s Canadian operations. In retaliation for tariffs imposed by the Trump administration, Ottawa slapped a 25% surtax on all cars impo

Bitcoin Hits New Highs Daily, but Experts Warn It’s a ‘Crisis Mode’ Rally

Bitcoin’s historic rally continues with no signs of slowing down. The world’s most famous cryptocurrency hit an all-time high overnight from Sunday to Monday, briefly surpassing the symbolic threshold of $123,000 before pulling back slightly. By 6:00 a.m. ET, it was hovering around $122,013, according to data from CoinGecko. This staggering surge marks a more than 30% increase in Bitcoin’s price since January, outpacing even gold and fueling the narrative that Bitcoin is the new “digital gold.

Galaxy Z Flip 7’s Exynos 2500 benchmarked: Flagship power or foldable flop?

In a first for Samsung’s foldables, the new Galaxy Z Flip 7 sports a Samsung Exynos processor instead of its usual Qualcomm Snapdragon chip. I’m reasonably convinced the Exynos 2500 looks more than good enough on paper, even if it won’t quite match the Snapdragon 8 Elite inside the Galaxy S25 series and Z Fold 7. But the real proof is in the testing, so I’ve run the Galaxy Z Flip 7 through our usual suite of benchmarks to see just how far off the top spot it really is. For comparison, we’ve gra
