Enlarge Image It’s all about that winch. Andrew Krok/CNETWith just a few key changes, the 2022 Ford Bronco Everglades adds even more overlanding-ready capability than a standard Bronco. But these aren’t tweaks destined for mall crawling; this thing begs to be run muddy and put away wet, and you’ll be doing a disservice if you buy this trim and don’t do precisely that. Like Will traverse nearly anything Surprisingly comfortable on-road Don’t like Could use a front camera Top rack impedes removable roof The stock Bronco is no slouch off-road, but the Everglades model really leans into this prowess with…

Presented by Axis Communications Many businesses are equipped with a network of intelligent eyes that span operations. These IP cameras and intelligent edge devices were once solely focused on ensuring the safety of employees, customers, and inventory. These technologies have long proved to be essential tools for businesses, and while this sentiment still rings true, they’re now emerging as powerful resources.These cameras and edge devices have rapidly evolved into real-time data producers. IP cameras can now see and understand, and the accompanying artificial intelligence helps companies and decision-makers generate business intelligence, improve operational efficiency, and gain a competitive advantage.By treating…

OnePlus has just announced the 15 and the Ace 6 in China, but it’s also working on a new series of devices, which was previously rumored earlier this month. The first phone in this line will be called OnePlus Turbo, and today its specs have been leaked.

OnePlus Ace 6 On the rear will be a 50 MP main camera and an 8 MP…

Watch out, DeepSeek and Qwen! There's a new king of open source large language models (LLMs), especially when it comes to something enterprises are increasingly valuing: agentic tool use — that is, the ability to go off and use other software capabilities like web search or bespoke applications — without much human guidance. That model is none other than MiniMax-M2, the latest LLM from the Chinese startup of the same name. And in a big win for enterprises globally, the model is available under a permissive, enterprise-friendly MIT License, meaning it is made available freely for developers to take, deploy,…

AI data centers on earth face bottlenecks like intermittent solar power, massive water usage for cooling (up to 1.7 million tons per 40 MW facility over a decade), and grid constraints. Space offers near-constant solar exposure (up to 95% capacity factor in sun-synchronous orbits), zero water needs, and rapid deployment (2-3 months vs. years on Earth). However, challenges include high upfront launch costs, radiation exposure to hardware, and efficient heat dissipation in vacuum. Jeff Bezos’ predict gigawatt (GW)-scale orbital facilities within 10-20 years, potentially 20x cheaper than Earth-based equivalents. Starcloud-1 as a pivotal demo. It is a 60kg satellite with…

Samsung is now rumored to have delayed the start of the beta program for its upcoming One UI 8.5 Android skin . This is what the Galaxy S26 series is expected to launch running. Samsung should have released the first beta build of One UI 8.5 in November. However, this is now very unlikely to happen, a tipster on X says. The rollout is delayed, and it’s all connected to the Galaxy S26+. This model was initially scrapped by Samsung, only to be brought back to life recently in the face of the Galaxy S25 Edge’s dismal sales (the S26…

If you’re like me, you struggle to stay as productive as you’d like. There are changes you can make to your routine, such as keeping your phone in a different room when you’re working or playing classical music to help you focus. However, utilizing AI to increase efficiency is something that has worked for me. Google’s NotebookLM has been a massive help for me when I’ve tried to learn a new skill or conduct research for a project around my home. While I can take NotebookLM’s outputs with me wherever I go to learn more, there’s a decent amount of…

Taylor Kerns / Android AuthorityTL;DR Code in the latest Google Messages beta hints that the app may be getting a trash folder. The folder could work similarly to Gmail’s, where trashed messages are held for 30 days before they’re automatically deleted. We couldn’t activate any UI for this new feature; it may be in the early stages of development. Google Messages might be getting a Trash folder for deleted messages. We’ve spotted code in the latest Messages beta build that makes multiple new references to “trashed conversations,” hinting that deleting messages could work differently in an upcoming update. One new…

Anthropic is making its most aggressive push yet into the trillion-dollar financial services industry, unveiling a suite of tools that embed its Claude AI assistant directly into Microsoft Excel and connect it to real-time market data from some of the world's most influential financial information providers.The San Francisco-based AI startup announced Monday it is releasing Claude for Excel, allowing financial analysts to interact with the AI system directly within their spreadsheets — the quintessential tool of modern finance. Beyond Excel, select Claude models are also being made available in Microsoft Copilot Studio and Researcher agent, expanding the integration across Microsoft's…

It’s not just interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS that’s been catching the attention of scientists. Comet 12P/Pons-Brooks, which was first discovered in 1812 and visits the Earth roughly every 71 years, has been found to be emanating intriguing radio signals. As detailed in a new paper published in the journal Astronomy & Astrophysics, a team of astronomers led by the Shanghai Astronomical Observatory of the Chinese Academy of Sciences used data collected by the Tianma Radio Telescope during its latest approach to the Sun last year. The comet is a Halley-type comet, meaning it’s an icy object that has an orbital period…
