I sometimes think about how much human effort gets buried inside a failed gadget. Years of engineering, design work, carrier deals, and marketing can vanish with the product almost overnight. Usually, all that work at least buys a device a year or two on store shelves. In the spring of 2010, Microsoft launched the Kin One and Kin Two, then abandoned the project just 48 days after the phones reached Verizon stores. Microsoft had spent roughly two years getting Kin to market, and contemporary estimates put the cost of designing and launching the project at close to $1 billion. Related…

Joe Maring / Android AuthorityAdd Android Authority on Google: Recently, we learned about a secret T-Mobile plan that costs just $25 per month, significantly undercutting every major US carrier. Before you rush out and sign up, however, you’ll want to make sure you understand exactly what you’re getting.On paper, the offer sounds compelling and, in a vacuum, it really is. That said, there are a few caveats you should consider before making up your mind.

Daybreak is OpenAI’s continuously running agentic loop that brings the power of frontier AI to simplify complex security investigations, validation, remediation and reporting. The earlier Daybreak Blue supports common defensive work with OpenAI mainline models; while Daybreak Red gives approved organizations access to specialized cyber models for more sensitive and technically demanding work. The new Daybreak for Frontline Defenders was announced on September 3, 2026, as a $1 billion subsidy for Frontline Defenders to access Daybreak. These frontline defenders are defenders required to protect the critical industry, often under-funded and usually with aging equipment. While the commitment is global, the…

The fire department at NASA’s Ames Research Center in California’s Silicon Valley will perform training on the Moffett Federal Airfield beginning Tuesday, Sept. 8 through Friday, Sept. 11. The training will involve the use of a propane-fueled aircraft fire simulator and be conducted from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. PDT. Because the aircraft simulator is fueled by propane, very little smoke should be produced during the controlled training fires. However, flames may be visible to drivers on U.S. Highway 101. The training is intended to prepare Ames’ first responders to respond to a variety of realistic aircraft firefighting scenarios. For…

The race to 0mm display bezels has taken a back seat in recent years, but Tecno decided to jump-start the whole ordeal with its bezel-less concept phone. We got to hold it in person here at IFA Berlin 2026, and these are some early impressions. While there are no visible black borders around the display, the metal frame feels wider compared to regular phones. So, did Tecno just squeeze the bezels under the phone’s frame? Kind of. It’s actually more complicated than that. See, Tecno is using a dual-layer cover glass with the bottom portion wrapping around the midframe and…

Sit down, it’s time to don the tin foil hats. While I love reading about a good conspiracy theory here and there, I wouldn’t call myself a part of the tin foil hat army. Did I wrap my old LG phone in foil back in 2011 because I thought it would trap and block the ‘dangerous’ RF signals it was emitting? Sure, but that was also around the time I was making duct tape wallets at my local library. Back in the day, I never imagined I’d be surrounded by this much tech. Today, I have a multi- monitor setup,…

Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) has released patches for 34 CVEs in the Aruba Networking ArubaOS-CX (AOS-CX) platform, including critical-severity remote code execution (RCE) flaws. Per HPT’s advisory, more than 150 flaws were resolved in AOS-CX versions 10.18.1002, 10.17.1030, 10.16.1060, 10.13.1190, and 10.10.1181. Many of these bugs are tracked together under single CVEs. Nearly two dozen issues, tracked collectively as CVE-2026-73749 (CVSS score of 9.8), were addressed with the updates. The critical security defects are rooted in the improper processing of malformed input sent to an unnamed service within HPE’s database-centric operating system for enterprise switches. According to the company, an…

Scientific research often depends on complex laboratory equipment that only specialists know how to use. But Anthropic is now rolling out a system that allows AI agents to control lab devices and autonomously carry out experiments.Laboratory automation technology has been around for decades but getting different bits of equipment to talk to each other has traditionally been a major headache. Most instruments use their own proprietary interfaces, so connecting a microscope to a robotic arm or a liquid handler typically requires bespoke software that takes specialists weeks or even months to build.Anthropic says its new Model Hardware Standard can reduce…
