As Samsung is gearing up to announce the new Samsung Galaxy S26 series, some are still wondering whether the Galaxy S26 Edge will replace the Galaxy S26 Plus, and the Pro will take the vanilla S26’s place. Earlier rumors said “no” to both questions, and the latest leak, if we can call it that, corroborates those early findings. According to a PDF document about promotions, published by Samsung Colombia, the Galaxy S26 series, which will debut at this year’s Galaxy S26 Unpacked event, will be the Galaxy S26, S26+ and the S26 Ultra with no Pro or Edge in sight.…

Alfred Wahlforss was running out of options. His startup, Listen Labs, needed to hire over 100 engineers, but competing against Mark Zuckerberg's $100 million offers seemed impossible. So he spent $5,000 — a fifth of his marketing budget — on a billboard in San Francisco displaying what looked like gibberish: five strings of random numbers.The numbers were actually AI tokens. Decoded, they led to a coding challenge: build an algorithm to act as a digital bouncer at Berghain, the Berlin nightclub famous for rejecting nearly everyone at the door. Within days, thousands attempted the puzzle. 430 cracked it. Some got…

Mandel Ngan / AFP via Getty Images Much ink has been spilled over US health secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s dalliances with anti-vaccine conspiracy theories, brain worms, nicotine pouches, and bizarre self-treatment with a synthetic dye known as methylene blue. In spite of all those wellness eccentricities of his own, Kennedy is apparently in awe of his boss Donald Trump, who he says spends his days “pumping himself full of poison.” In a recent appearance on the Katie Miller Podcast — hosted by the wife of Stephen Miller, who currently serves as homeland security advisor to the White House —…

Choosing the right subscription service is trickier than simply picking the one that typically goes best with your phone. As an Android user, it might make sense to stream music with YouTube Music Premium or save files to the cloud with Google One. Instead, I’ve done the opposite. I subscribe to iCloud+ and Apple Music, pairing both Apple subscription services with whatever Android phone I currently have in my pocket — most recently, the Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge. Out of all the benefits included with iCloud+, there’s one feature I simply can’t live without, and it’s called Hide My Email.…

Samsung is gearing up for the launch of the Galaxy S26 series on February 25, but expectations for the phones are quite low this year. It doesn’t look like much will change in both the base Galaxy S26 and S26 Plus compared to their predecessors — at least not enough to justify an upgrade. These will be the worst phones of 2026 on an expectation-to-reality scale; we all expect Samsung to do better.The lack of significant upgrades also makes waiting for the regular Galaxy S26 a huge waste of time, in my opinion. If you’re in the market for a…

A new video released by California-based tech firm Figure AI shows its humanoid robot out for a run with workers from the firm. The robot’s running style looks steady and natural as it jogs along with three guys (or four if you count the person recording it). It even raises the idea of one day using the robot as a personal trainer. Imagine, for running, it could set the proper pace as you prep for your first marathon. And think how cool it would look to run around the park with one of these by your side. Admittedly, running with…

Hollywood is full of tropes about dads who won’t let anyone touch the thermostat, or who complain when someone leaves lights on or the fridge door open for a second longer than they have to. Being a dad myself, I sympathize a little — owning a home is expensive enough without worrying about power bills going up. I am a realist though, so I just rely on smart home tech to turn things on and off in a way my family can live with. One thing I don’t have much control over is how long TVs run. I’m pretty judicious…
