Wear OS 5 is on its way, and with it, Google says Android smartwatch users ought to see even better battery life. Running a marathon, for example, will purportedly consume 20 percent less battery than on Wear OS 4.
This emphasis on battery life is similar to last year’s Wear OS 4 announcement — and for good reason. Wear OS 4 helped the Pixel Watch 2 last an entire day, something the original struggled to do. That...

A new company founded by three former Googlers is looking to disrupt the somewhat staid mini-split industry. Quilt is a new “home climate system” — a ductless HVAC system that uses heat pump-powered mini-split units to heat and cool your home.
Two things make Quilt stand out from the start: it’s smart and pretty. The...

Airbus has a new aircraft that’s half helicopter and half airplane, designed to speed up flight times for emergency responders. The company calls it the Racer: it has wings like a plane, forward-facing rotors, plus top helicopter blades that seriously make it look like a baby of two aircraft.
Today, Airbus is sharing its one-off working demonstration model of the Racer in France’s southern port city of...

For years, autonomous vehicles have operated in relative obscurity. With few vehicles on the road and a laissez-faire attitude among government regulators, automakers and big tech firms have been free to test — and even commercially deploy — with little oversight.
Well, those days are done. In rapid succession, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has opened investigations into almost all...
It had nothing to do with him having paintings of himself as a centaur or kissing his own reflection... at first.
What’s that expression, “Hell hath no fury like a lover scorned”? Oh, I just looked it up. It’s, “like a woman scorned.” Okay, well, that’s needlessly gendered and now I’m offended.
What I’m trying to say is that Seattle used to really love Alex Rodriguez, and that’s why everything got so beefy when things, and people, went south.
When the Mariners...
Oh my.
Pacers vs. Knicks has been a tight series with the Knicks making a statement in Game 5 on Tuesday night with a 121-91 win. Now there’s some budding beef, with Donte DiVincenzo taking shots at Tyrese Haliburton — comparing him to Ben Simmons.

Investors seized on the latest inflation report as another sign that interest rates could be cut his year, helping push the S&P 500 past its March record.
Much of the focus on Mr. Fico’s leadership has focused on his ties to President Vladimir Putin of Russia and Prime Minister Viktor Orban of Hungary.
They may “hate the man,” as one put it, but major business players from coast to coast are increasingly on board for a second term after the first one alienated them.
No matchups for the two Christmas Day games that will air on Netflix were revealed, but the four teams involved will play rare Wednesday regular-season contests.

Apple appears to have a bug that’s dredging up data that iPhone owners thought was gone. Some iPhone owners are reporting that, after updating their phones to iOS 17.5, their deleted photos — some quite old — are popping up again, according to a Reddit thread that MacRumors spotted. iOS beta testers had the same complaints about the bug last week.
People reporting the apparent bug say that they’re seeing old photos appear in their Recents album...

The next entry in the Assassin’s Creed franchise is almost here: Ubisoft debuted the first trailer for Assassin’s Creed Shadows, which launches later this year.
The trailer is decently meaty for a world premiere, taking its time to introduce the game’s two protagonists. One is the samurai Yasuke, an African man who became a retainer in service to Japanese warlord Oda Nobunaga. The second protagonist is Naoe, a shinobi character whose opposition to Nobunaga’s war...
From free agency, to the draft, and more.
Great news if you’re the kind of sicko who needs more Hard Knocks in your life. On Wednesday morning HBO announced that the New York Giants will be featured in a new version of the series titled Hard Knocks: Offseason with the New York Giants.
The show will chronicle the Giants’ moves from the end of the season in January, up through the conclusion of the NFL Draft — hopefully showing more of how the sausage is made away from training...
After securing their first point in Miami, Alpine is looking for another breakthrough in Imola
Following an admittedly difficult start to the Formula 1 season, Alpine had been showing some progress with their 2024 challenger the past few weeks. Finally, the Miami Grand Prix gave the team something to show for all the hours of hard work in the factory, in the simulator, and on the track.
A point.
Esteban Ocon’s tenth place finish in the Miami Grand Prix saw Alpine get on the board...
