Instagram just introduced a small but useful update that people have been asking for forever: You can finally edit your comments. The platform announced on Thursday that users now have the option to edit comments, which is a long-awaited fix for anyone who’s ever had to delete and re-post a comment just to fix a typo. However, there’s a catch. You only get a 15-minute window after posting to make changes. Within those 15 minutes, though, you can edit your comment as many times as you want. Once you edit a comment, other people will be able to see that…
When you think of Amazon Prime, you probably think of its popular perks, such as fast, free shipping and access to Prime Video. But in my view, one of its most underrated benefits is the ability to get free Kindle e-books every month through Amazon’s First Reads program. If you’re not familiar with First Reads, here’s how it works: at the start of each month, Amazon refreshes its First Reads lineup with a new batch of upcoming Kindle e-books across a range of genres, giving you early access to them before they’re widely released. As a Prime member, you can…

Shortly after liftoff at 6:35 p.m. EDT from NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida, initial Artemis II communications were handled by the agency’s Near Space Network. Then, the DSN acquired signal, marking the first time in over 50…

I’ve been on Reddit for 13 years, from the site’s heyday as ‘the front page of the internet’ up until now. I remember viral AMAs (Woody Harrelson’s infamous, disastrous promotional AMA for the movie Rampart spawned a million community inside jokes), and subreddits going dark in protest for rules changes. Another user once gave me Reddit Gold via the old reward system for a helpful post about beginner comic book recommendations. I was in the threads for what might have been the funniest (safe for work) thing I’ve ever read on the internet, when a guy hated the steak his…
Sign up to see the future, today Can’t-miss innovations from the bleeding edge of science and tech It was bound to happen sooner or later. On Monday this week, a man holding only a shotgun to cover his shame burst into a Tesla service center in Berkeley, California. The daring raid happened at around 7:20am, local outlet the Berkeley Scanner reported, presumably before many of the dealership workers had even clocked in, let alone had their first cup of coffee. The man, later identified as 35-year-old Ed Teece, was reportedly “running down the street smashing windows” before he made his…
Samsung has just announced that it’s expanding the One UI 8.5 beta program to more devices.

If you are in one of the supported markets, you should see a banner inside the Samsung Members app advertising the beta program, but do note that this is a phased rollout, so it might take a…
A while back, I asked Claude, ChatGPT, and Gemini to build a solar system simulator. This was back when Claude was the talk of the town, and more people, myself included, were realizing that maybe they shouldn’t limit themselves to ChatGPT. That test produced one of the clearest results I’ve had. Claude knocked it out of the park and won decisively. Gemini produced working but not especially impressive code, and, interestingly, ChatGPT failed. Today, I decided to test a different parameter. This time, instead of writing code, I tasked the LLMs with debugging code. Specifically, I asked them to fix…
Dhruv Bhutani / Android AuthorityThe Pixel lineup has been a part of my smartphone rotation ever since the first model launched way back in 2016. And like everyone else, I’m a big fan of a good deal. So, the Pixel A-series smartphones has, predictably, been of particular interest to me. The idea of blending good-enough specs with excellent value isn’t new, but when paired with Google’s clean software and cutting-edge AI smarts, there’s a lot to like here on paper. But times are changing, and the definition of value continues to get redefined year on year. In an AI-first market,…
Tesla FSD V14.3 first drive impressions • Highway follow distance is more comfortable• Quicker take off from stop signs after coming to a complete stop• Highway lane change hesitation from previous versions seems gone for me• The navigation routes it takes are still sometimes confusing• It understood detour signs correctly on its way to a Supercharger, but got confused after with how to navigate to the Supercharger. It eventually figured it out.• For the most part, FSD does seem to be choosing parking spots closer to the designation, which is good, but not noticing a big change in parking behavior…
