September 18, 2025 After updating to iOS 26, I will add my voice to the chorus of dismay: this thing makes my phone run like shit! I recognize that mine isn’t the latest and greatest, but it’s only four years old — an iPhone 13 mini — and the previous iOS ran perfectly: snappy and practical. I hope Apple can (literally) smooth things out. I realize there’s always an undercurrent to these releases of “maybe you should get a new phone … ” but in this case the performance hit feels either (1

gizmodo.com Lucas Ropek 2025-09-19 14:35:27

Donald Trump has many grand plans for America, one of the more ambitious of which is to create a giant invisible space shield that theoretically protects the country from rockets. In January, Trump announced, via executive order, the creation of a “Golden Dome,” designed to protect Americans from the “threat of attack by ballistic, hypersonic, and cruise missiles, and other advanced aerial attacks.” The project, Trump said, would use a network of satellites to detect and repel aerial attacks on

Like all generative AI video models, Google's Veo 3 shines in small doses. At the company's Made On YouTube event this week in New York, journalists and creators saw just what it can do in YouTube Shorts. You could, for instance, film a video of the streets of New York and add a penguin riding a skateboard. Or you could have AI manipulate a picture of yourself to have a black belt in karate or dance like a ballerina. One demo showed how Veo 3 could insert a realistic-looking monster into a livi

iPhone 17 Review: The Best iPhone Value in Years

But peel back a few layers and things become clear: the iPhone 17, starting at $799, is in fact a remarkable value, providing a ton of bang for your buck.
