The four astronauts preparing to end a five-decade gap in crewed lunar flights will have to wait until at least April before they can begin the Artemis II mission. During the SLS rocket’s second wet dress rehearsal last weekend, NASA discovered an issue with the flow of helium to the rocket’s upper stage. Engineers decided that to fix the problem, the massive rocket, which is currently on the launchpad at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida, will have to be transported back to the Vehicle Assembly Building (VAB). That four-mile rollback to the VAB is expected to take place on…

Samsung’s Galaxy Buds 4(s) are right around the corner, and the biggest improvements are coming to the Galaxy Buds 4 Pro. Samsung’s flagship earbuds will reportedly get head gestures, a feature that has been available on the AirPods Pro for quite a while (via Sammyguru). Basically, head gestures let you respond to notifications by nodding to say yes and shaking to say no. When there’s an incoming call on my iPhone, I can simply nod or shake to answer or reject the call; the same applies to incoming messages. Head gestures could finally come to Galaxy Buds (Pro) The feature…

From passive to proactive personalization A teardown of Spotify version 9.1.28.385 (via Android Authority) has revealed code strings pointing to a new Notes feature tied to your Taste Profile, the invisible engine behind Discover Weekly, Wrapped, and all those “we think you’ll like this” moments.…

Ubisoft is appointing three developers to a new leadership team in charge of the Assassin’s Creed franchise. Technically, Vantage Studios is doing the appointing, as it’s the subsidiary Ubisoft established last year to manage its highest profile franchises, including Assassin’s Creed, Far Cry, and Rainbow Six. Martin Schelling, Jean Guesdon, and François de Billy each have experience with various stages of the series’ nearly 20-year history, but all three worked on 2017’s Assassin’s Creed Origins. Ubisoft announced the news in a post on its website. Schelling will serve as the Head of Assassin’s Creed Brand, which will put him in…

CES this year was packed with humanoid robots. From LG’s CLOiD to Boston Dynamics’ Atlas, the show floor was filled with robots designed to handle everything from household chores to assembling cars.

Honor has released a teaser offering a glimpse of the robot, though it provides no details about its design or functionality. A report from Bloomberg suggests the robot could focus on consumer-oriented tasks rather than industrial or household applications, with shopping…

One of the coolest features of Samsung’s Galaxy S26 series, likely reserved for the Galaxy S26 Ultra, is Privacy Display. Using directional OLED pixels and clever software implementation, the feature can hide the entire screen (or specific parts) when viewed from an angle, preventing shoulder surfing in public areas. We’ve also seen the feature in a couple of hands-on pictures so far, and it looks, well, impressive. Chinese brands are quite impressed from Samsung’s Privacy Display Turns out it wasn’t just me who was impressed with the feature. Renowned Chinese tipster Digital Chat Station claims that “domestic manufacturers” (referring to…
