Edgar Cervantes / Android AuthorityTL;DR Google Calendar will now always show any secondary calendars you own in your Settings list. The change builds on last year’s move to give every secondary calendar a dedicated owner. The rollout starts today for personal accounts and on January 27 for Workspace users. It’s pretty easy to create a secondary calendar in Google Calendar and then completely forget about it, but Google is stepping in to tidy things up. The company is rolling out a change that ensures any secondary calendars you own will always appear in your calendar list in Settings, making them…

Source: Getty Images There’s endless debate among cosmologists about what really makes up the emptiness of outer space, though many believe that mysterious stuff that we now call dark matter and dark energy represent a significant portion. In a new yet-to-be-peer-reviewed paper flagged by Live Science, a researcher at the Indian Institute of Technology in Jodhpur named Muhammad Ghulam Khuwajah Khan proposes an intriguing theory: that space is something akin to a viscous fluid, like a slow-moving honey. If borne out — a significant “if,” to be clear — the model could go a…
Gemini just picked up a massive upgrade that lets it tap into data from other Google apps, including Gmail, Photos, Calendar, Drive, YouTube, and Search, to deliver more personalized responses. With its new Personal Intelligence feature, the chatbot can now offer tailored answers that go beyond what you’ve shared in past chats, making Gemini feel more personal, proactive, and useful. But if speed is all you care about, Google is rolling out another new feature. The model picker in the Gemini app currently lets you choose between Fast, Thinking, and Pro models. The Fast model prioritizes quick responses, while the…
After years of using a Kindle Paperwhite and the Kindle app on iOS and Android, I’ve found that the device’s distraction-free nature is actually its greatest strength for tasks that have nothing to do with traditional reading. The Paperwhite’s e-ink display, weeks-long battery life, and limited app ecosystem make it an excellent substitute for your phone or laptop. I think of it as a low-noise thinking device I can use alongside my eBooks. Meanwhile, the mobile Kindle apps have been an educational alternative to doomscrolling. Maybe like me, these tips will help you use the Kindle more than ever. 1…
Your TV is packed with HDMI ports, and while all of them look the same, they actually have some key differences you have to be aware of. The big ones are HDMI 2.1 and 2.0, and it’s easy to get them confused. For starters, both ports support 4K resolution, so if you’re only looking for picture quality, it’s easy just to set it and forget it. However, many devices, including your Amazon Fire TV Stick, benefit depending on the port. As you might’ve guessed by the numbers, the 2.1 format is newer than 2.0, and that means it comes with…
Musk Lawsuit seeks to block full for-profit conversion and potentially disrupt Microsoft ties. Evidence shows intent to breach early agreements.Even if OpenAI wins the 2026 trial, discovery exposes emails/intents/depositions → creates investor uncertainty and could delay fundraising and slow them in the AI race. AI Model Breakthroughs (Grok-4.2, GPT-5.2, etc.)Models like xAI’s Grok-4.2 and OpenAI’s GPT-5.2 solve significant previously unsolved math problems (eBellman functions, Erdős/Airdose-level problems from a Hungarian mathematician’s list of 1,000 interesting unsolved ones). Terence Tao (top living mathematician) validated new, original proofs — not just rediscovering old ones; enables “vibe coding” for math (talk to AI to…
Infinix has entered the trendy slim space with the freshly unveiled Infinix Note Edge. Now, this isn’t one of those sub-6mm slim phones, but at 7.2mm, it’s still thinner than the majority of phones out there. Infinix says this is the first phone to feature MediaTek’s Dimensity 7100 5G chip. The Infinix Note Edge has a now-retro design with sloping, curving panels on either side of a thin frame. The phone’s corners are also very rounded, a trend we’ve seen very little of in recent years. Infinix touts its “ripple texture” finish, which it says is silk-like to the touch.…
The UCI World Tour returns for 2026 and will once again feature 18 teams vying for glory across 36 events, starting with the Tour Down Under on January 21-25 and concluding with the Tour of Guangxi on October 13-18.Last year, Tadej Pogačar and his UAE Team Emirates-XRG squad dominated proceedings, with the Slovenian winning eight World Tour events, including the Tour de France and three of the five cycling monuments. However, a whole host of changes have been made over the winter, with the likes of Red Bull-Bora-Hansgrohe, Decathlon CMA CGM and Visma-Lease a Bike all boasting incredibly strong line-ups.…
After 167 days in space, the crew members of NASA’s SpaceX Crew-11 mission will hold a news conference at 2:15 p.m. EST, Wednesday, Jan. 21, at the agency’s Johnson Space Center in Houston to discuss their science expedition aboard the International Space Station. NASA astronauts Zena Cardman and Mike Fincke, JAXA (Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency) astronaut Kimiya Yui, and Roscosmos cosmonaut Oleg Platonov will answer questions about their mission. The crew members returned to Earth on Jan. 15, splashing down off the coast of San Diego, and arrived in Houston on Friday, where they will undergo standard postflight reconditioning and evaluations. NASA will provide live coverage…
