Jaguar has officially presented the new 2028 Jaguar Type 01 in New York, and the sky hasn’t fallen after all. Two years ago, when the British brand dropped its pastel concepts, the internet unleashed an absolute storm of ridicule and brand obituaries . Even Elon Musk , a guy whose cars’ designs are the equivalent of porridge , moaned. Today, faced with the actual machine, some of that rabid critic…
What year is it, and what dessert name of Android are we up to? | Photo: Antonio G. Di Benedetto / The Verge A common misconception I've seen with Googlebooks is that the Quick Insert and Google logo keys are new. They're not, as they first debuted a couple of years ago on some Chromebooks. But there is something new for Googlebooks that's ripped straight from Android phones circa 2014. On every G…

Optogenetics revolutionized neuroscience, but its origins come from an entirely brainless organism—an alga.
AI chatbots are already a trusted source of shopping advice. Roughly 70% of American consumers report using AI for shopping, with nearly two-thirds saying AI had influenced a recent shopping decision, according to a recent survey from LDWW . But a new study shows that AI may not be the impartial shopping buddy users think it is: Rather, some of the most popular AI models, including ChatGPT and Cla…

Microsoft revealed the specs and price for its Surface Laptop Ultra, AI PCs that run on Nvidia chips that are designed to run AI models and agents.
Apple has long been criticized for the iPhone's "walled garden," the closed ecosystem that the company has built with iOS that gives Apple tight control over which apps and services can run on its smartphone. Android devices have long been viewed as the more "open" option, giving users more control over what's on their smartphone. But, when it comes to bloatware, that may not be the case. In fact,…

Pennsylvania's explosive measles outbreak is now the largest the US has seen since the highly infectious virus was declared eliminated in 2000. With well over 1,000 cases, it's the largest on record since 1991. Pennsylvania's health officials reported 1,078 measles cases in all of 2026 as of this afternoon.

The government is sending a one-time $90 payment to more than 20 million Social Security recipients to help with their Medicare Part B coverage premiums, President Donald Trump announced in a statement . Medicare is a federal health insurance program for people 65-years-old or older, and for younger people with long-term disabilities or end-stage renal disease, according to the Congressional Budge…
It’s Prime Day yet again, and it’s also the second and final day of Amazon’s second members-only shopping event of the year. And there are still a ton of deals to shop, from Lego sets to TVs, AirPods Pro, coffee machines, and countless other gadgets in between. But rather than a discount on the brand-new Beats 360 headphones — it’s a bit early for that, after all — I’m here with a discount on what…

TP-Link is facing more legal troubles in the US as Florida and three other states filed lawsuits alleging that it lied to consumers about its connections to China and the risks of its routers being exploited by Chinese state hackers. The lawsuits were filed yesterday, about six months after the Federal Communications Commission announced a sweeping ban on consumer-grade routers produced wholly or…

Newegg is throwing a massive spanner in Amazon’s well-oiled Prime Day engine in the shape of the best-value laptop you can buy this October. The Hasee X5 is no ordinary laptop . It is the only one with a Core i7 (not one of these obsolete 10-year old ones), 16GB LPDDR5 RAM and a humongous 1TB PCIe Gen4 SSD. All this for a mere $549.99, a saving of 38% off its SRP of $899.99. X5: was $899.99 now $5…

Entry level jobs are an endangered animal, at least in professions exposed to disruption from AI . While new grads are still seeing opportunities in fields like real estate, utilities and construction, the overall hiring market has been brutal: a whopping 48% of recent college graduates were unemployed (5.6%) or underemployed (42%) and working in jobs that didn’t require a degree in the second qua…
When planning a vacation, many might look for a warm spot to escape the cold weather, a romantic destination for an anniversary, or maybe a cultural hotspot for art geeks. But Gen Z seems to have different priorities when it comes to booking a getaway. According to a recent trends report from Airbnb , Gen Z is looking for travel destinations with an added story, or lore, referring to the trend as…
Employers in the Golden State can't offload the hard parts of running a business to AI , according to a new state law. Signed by California Governor Gavin Newsom last week, SB 947 sets restrictions on the use of the novel technology in disciplinary decision making, including firing employees. SB 947 may sound like an obvious regulatory move as industries continue to worry about AI's impact on empl…

Microsoft priced its first Nvidia-powered Surface at $2,599.99 and claimed on stage that it doubles a MacBook Pro M5 on local AI prompts, without publishing how either figure was measured.

When it burst into widespread use as a result of the 1976 movie All the President’s Men , the phrase “Follow the money” referred to political influence or corruption and how to track it. Fifty years later, the meaning of the phrase hasn’t changed much—but following the money is now magnitudes more complex. With the proliferation of political action committees and the blessing of the U.S. Supreme C…

Brands, influencers, and Etsy sellers claim they're hawking T-shirts, mugs, and buttons out of solidarity with the woman who accused seven male classmates of sexual assault. Some say it’s shameless.
I've spotted a lot of portable power station deals in the Prime Day sale. And while you can't really go wrong with Bluetti, EcoFlow, Jackery, and Anker based on my experiences, it can sometimes become a confusing mess of numbers once you start digging into the differences. So, these are my top three recommendations if you're looking for a little extra insurance while working from home and you're s…

In what won’t feel like news to many Americans, a new report underscores that the affordability crisis is real—and getting worse. It costs 4.1% more this year to achieve the eight hallmark life milestones that make up the prototypical American Dream , according to a report released Wednesday by Investopedia. Over the course of a lifetime, a household will now spend about $5.3 million to own a home…
Keeping up with every vector of Trump-generated outrage is like playing a never-ending rigged game of whack-a-mole. For instance, in what might be considered a microcosm of this entire era, much of the backlash to the president’s use of an anti-transgender slur in a Truth Social post on Monday was quickly drowned out by the fuller-throated backlash to the president also seemingly inviting Iran to…
I’ve recently moved into a brand new home, and the tiny kitchen I had to make do with in my old apartment has over doubled in size — and this Prime Day I’m looking for a brand new suite of kitchen gadgets, and general cookware to fill it with.

There are few gaming headsets that I would consider to be best-in-class offerings, but the Sony Inzone H6 Air is a rare example of one. It's the best-sounding open-back gaming headset that I've ever tested, with crisp and clean audio that elevates everything from first-person shooters to narrative-based action games. It's pretty well-positioned at full price, but has now become even greater value…
The Federal Communications Commission is considering a request by a conservative group to loosen rules on political robocalls , including those with artificial intelligence -generated voices, before November’s midterm elections . Federal law currently bans most robocalls to cellphones unless the caller gets consent beforehand. The petition calls for a waiver that would allow political groups to us…
HubSpot is eliminating about 660 roles, 7% of its workforce, in a restructuring its chief executive calls an AI strategy shift while insisting it is not driven by AI efficiencies. Its SEC filing concedes the timetable depends on local consultation law, which in Ireland means a statutory 30-day minimum and criminal penalties for ignoring it.

Life is remarkably selective. Life relies on many molecules with what is termed "handedness"—they're chemically identical but are mirror images of each other. Most chemical reactions will make a 50-50 mix of the left- and right-handed forms of a chemical, but life uses only one of them. In fact, because of the differences between left- and right-handed chemicals, most of the key enzymes used by or…
