We have an air bike in our basement. If you are unfamiliar with air bikes, they are similar to stationary bikes with foot pedals but also have handles you push and pull with your arms. It uses air resistance, so the harder you pedal and move your arms, the higher the resistance. It’s also known as an assault bike. 😬 Which is apt, because it’s a butt-kicker of a workout.

Here are the things I love most about iOS 26

9to5mac.com Ben Lovejoy 2025-09-24 16:13:36

If you’ve just installed iOS 26, the first thing you will, of course, have noticed is the new Liquid Glass user interface. This has proved a somewhat polarizing feature, with some developers arguing it’s not yet ready for primetime. It certainly takes some getting used to, but overall I’m a fan, and I particularly like some of the small but notable changes … Liquid Glass Way back in March, when we first heard that what we then thought would be iOS 19 would be getting a completely new look, I

What Are AI Hallucinations? Why Chatbots Make Things Up, and What You Need to Know

If you've used ChatGPT, Google Gemini, Grok, Claude, Perplexity or any other generative AI tool, you've probably seen them make things up with complete confidence. This is called an AI hallucination -- although one research paper suggests we call it BS instead -- and it's an inherent flaw that should give us all pause when using AI. Hallucinations happen when AI models generate information that looks plausible but is false, misleading or entirely fabricated. It can be as small as a wrong date i

Millions of people worldwide have reason to be thankful that Swedish engineer Rune Elmqvist decided not to practice medicine. Although qualified as a doctor, he chose to invent medical equipment instead. In 1949, while working at Elema-Schonander (later Siemens-Elema), in Stockholm, he applied for a patent for the Mingograph, the first inkjet printer.
