Don’t be duped: Verizon, AT&T, and T-Mobile’s cheapest plans aren’t worth it

Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority Recently, my cousin asked me whether Verizon’s myPlan Unlimited Welcome was better than his legacy plan, prompted by a promotional email he received. At first glance, the new plan looked cheaper and similar in features. But upon closer examination, his legacy plan had notable advantages, especially higher-priority data and a few other perks. Truthfully, none of the entry-level postpaid plans from Verizon, T-Mobile, or AT&T offer great value in 2025. There ar

5 entry-level tech jobs AI is already augmenting, according to Amazon

How I easily set up passkeys through my password manager - and why you should too

J. W. Burkey/Getty Images Passkeys promise a more secure, easier authentication method than passwords. Instead of creating and remembering a password for each account, a passkey is automatically generated for you by the respective website or app. To authenticate your login, you can use a PIN, fingerprint recognition, facial ID, or a physical security key. Also: How passkeys work: The complete guide to your inevitable passwordless future Sounds great, right? The main hiccup is that passkeys ca

Let's Learn x86-64 Assembly! Part 0 - Setup and First Steps published on Apr 18 2020 The way I was taught x86 assembly at the university had been completely outdated for many years by the time I had my first class. It was around 2008 or 2009, and 64-bit processors had already started becoming a thing even in my neck of the woods. Meanwhile, we were doing DOS, real-mode, memory segmentation and all the other stuff from the bad old days. Nevertheless, I picked up enough of it during the classes

iPadOS 26 just made the entry level iPad the best value in the lineup, here’s why [Video]

The best part of Apple’s keynote yesterday, for me, was the introduction of iPadOS 26. Apple finally opened up the floodgates and gave iPad users everything they wanted. We have an actual multitasking window manager, new menu toolbars, better background tasks, and a revamped files app. All this has transformed how people will view iPads moving forward. But the fantastic thing is that this is not just reserved for the $1300+ iPad Pro; this now works on the $299 entry-level iPad. Apple just made t

F1 may ditch hybrids for V10s and sustainable fuels

High-revving naturally aspirated engines and their associated screaming soundtracks might be on their way back to Formula 1. Not with next year's rule changes—that will see even bigger lithium-ion batteries and an even more powerful electric motor, paired with a turbocharged V6. But the sport is starting to think more seriously about the technical rules that will go into effect in 2030, and in an Instagram post yesterday, the man in charge of those rules signaled that he's open to cars that migh

The Next iPad Needs an iPhone 16E Moment. But Will Its Cost Go Up, Too?

Apple gave us a February surprise this year, launching a new entry-level iPhone ahead of schedule. The iPhone 16E is full of most of the things people want in an iPhone, plus hosts many features of the iPhone 16. But, while it's entry-level, it's not low-cost. As I wait for a new iPad to replace Apple's 10th-gen iPad base model, likely coming in the next month or so, I'm encouraged and concerned that Apple will follow a similar path as the 16E. Actually, it seems inevitable. But maybe I'm wrong.
