It’s because of all these updates that I recently switched back to the Gmail Android app after using a third-party email client for most of this year. And while I’ve thorough

Samsung HW-Q990F Soundbar System Review: Glorious Atmos

wired.com Parker Hall 2025-09-20 11:09:00

It’s hard to convince anyone to spend over a thousand dollars on a soundbar system. Ask a home theater nerd or Redditor, and they’ll say spending real cash on anything other than a receiver and dedicated speakers and subwoofer is a fool's errand. As an A/V reviewer, I see this as a hilariously case of gatekeeping. These arguments are predicated on the fact that everyone has the room, know-how, and desire to deal with cables, speakers, and the associated setup. For those of us with partners who

Outage - post incident review By Allan Jardine On 29th July 2025, the DataTables.net site had a major outage as a result of an attack. This took out the main site with its examples and documentation, the support forum, and the sub-domains, including, most importantly, the DataTables CDN. Digging into such an event, when something has gone so wrong, is not a fun thing to do, but it is important for me to do so I can learn what I can do better in future, for you so you can understand what happe

Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority TL;DR In 2022, Meta agreed to pay a $725 million settlement to millions of users for allegedly selling their personal information to Cambridge Analytica.

Stephen Headrick / Android Authority I hate ads. But I love Google. What a conundrum. We live in an online world that largely runs on ads, and I think it’s important to have this option so that products can continue to be used for free by the majority of the world. In fact, the free website you’re currently visiting to read these words right now is largely powered by ads. Again, this is a vital part of the internet being what it is today.

If the AI Industry Fails, It Could Take the Rest of Us Down With It

Don't let AI critics tell you it's good for nothing: the amount of money being spent on AI infrastructure is so enormous that it’s literally propping up the US economy. The drawback, of course, is that if the AI industry fails, it could drag the rest of the economy down with it. In 2024, the S&P 500 grew by an incredible 24 percent — what the investment firm Charles Schwab understatedly called a "very good year."
