Last week, we asked your opinion on two mid-range and two entry-level Motorola phones. We have the results from the poll in front of us now and let’s just say that some have more potential than others. Starting with the most promising model of the four, the Motorola Moto G77 was knocked for its Dimensity 6400 chipset – the 6000-series chips are better-suited for entry-level phones. The €300/£250 price range is home to much more powerful chips than this. The 108MP camera is the standout feature on the Moto G77 and such a high resolution sensor is indeed fairly rare…

President Trump mentioned a 15% annual GDP growth target. Progrowth Policy Lower interest rates and accommodative monetary policy to boost borrowing, investment, and consumption.Warsh’s perceived willingness to tolerate stronger growth without quick tightening.Complementary policies like tax cuts, deregulation, and energy production (drill baby drill) that Trump has long advocated. Achieving sustained 15% real annual GDP growth would require an unprecedented combination of demand stimulus and supply-side revolution. Two weeks before Trump mentioned this target, Nextbigfuture had calculated how just AI mobilization and a buildout larger than WW2 military mobilization could achieve 18-25% per year GDP growth. Every Policy Would Become…

I used to be a big SmartThings user back in the day. Powered by its hub, it was the powerhouse of smart home automation, but since Samsung has moved away from the Classic app and the hub is now made by Aeotec, it has lost some of its more powerful features, such as WebCore for scripting. I use Amazon Alexa for voice commands, as it’s the best voice assistant and has the widest range of devices, and I have been using Apple Home for Automations, as the devices I want to use are either compatible or can be added via…

I love me a good music player, especially on Windows, where I have pretty much tried all the popular options at least once. That curiosity comes with the territory of being a self-confessed audiophile. I poke around, I tinker, I uninstall a lot. Many of the options out there feel bloated or dated, while others never quite get the balance of features and finesse right. I recently stumbled across Harmonoid, and you definitely need to stumble on it too. This open-source app surprised me in ways that make me grin. It’s free, clearly alive and evolving, and after spending some…

Stephen Headrick / Android AuthorityI think I did it. I think I finally found a system that works for my brain. A system that brings my work and personal lives together under one roof and allows me to stay organized across tasks, documents, and projects — and it’s finally available on Android. This is, after all, the holy grail of productivity apps, right?Productivity apps are a dime a dozen these days, and I’ve tried way too many in search of something that works for me. But after consistently using it for a while now, I feel confident saying that the…

Four crew members of NASA’s SpaceX Crew-12 mission launched at 5:15 a.m. EST Friday from Space Launch Complex 40 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida for a science expedition aboard the International Space Station. A SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket propelled a Dragon spacecraft into orbit carrying NASA astronauts Jessica Meir and Jack Hathaway, ESA (European Space Agency) astronaut Sophie Adenot, and Roscosmos cosmonaut Andrey Fedyaev. The spacecraft will dock autonomously to the space-facing port of the station’s Harmony module at approximately 3:15 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 14. “With Crew-12 safely on orbit, America and our international partners once again…

Google has just updated the Deep Think mode for its Gemini 3 model, and it’s a massive step forward for chores involving 3D printing. For the unaware, Deep Think mode focuses on enhanced multimodal understanding and reasoning, and its latest upgrade pushes it further for engineering, research, and scientific tasks. The core focus is going from theoretical to practical applications. One of those application areas is 3D printing. Essentially, Gemini 3 Deep Think is going to turn your rough sketches into a proper 3D model and generate a file ready for feeding to a 3D printer. What you have here…

Your TV is packed with different HDMI ports, so I don’t blame you for not knowing the difference between them all. It gets even more complicated once you start reading the different things on the back of your TV. You’ll see things like HDMI 2.0, 2.1, and eARC. Each of these ports do a different thing, and the problem is that your Apple TV 4K will largely work the exact same no matter what port you select. Once you start to learn more about what these ports do, you’ll know the eARC port is meant for audio equipment such as…

While we have sent probes billions of kilometers into interstellar space, humans have barely scratched the surface of our own planet, not even making it through the thin crust.Information about Earth’s deep interior comes mainly from geophysics and is at a premium. We know it consists of a solid crust, a rocky mantle, a liquid outer core and solid inner core. But what precisely goes on in each layer—and between them—is a mystery. Now our research uses our planet’s magnetism to cast light on the most significant interface in the Earth’s interior: its core-mantle boundary.Roughly 3,000 kilometers beneath our feet,…
