Tesla’s futuristic Cybercab robotaxi project is making increasingly visible progress on public roads. As shared by Matt Barge and dennis hegstad on X, multiple prototype vehicles have been spotted navigating regular traffic in Austin, Texas. These sightings suggest that the electric vehicle maker is ramping up real-world testing as it prepares for broader validation ahead of a planned production kickoff in 2026. The Cybercab has long been teased as a purpose-built autonomous ride-hailing vehicle with a radical design that strips away steering wheels and pedals. To bring you up to speed, Tesla first unveiled the Cybercab concept in 2024 as…

Apple is launching a new ad campaign focused on turning well-meaning fitness resolutions into lasting habits, and the Apple Watch is front and center. The series, titled “Quit Quitting” started circulating on social media and other channels late in December 2025, strategically timed as people prepare their 2026 New Year’s resolutions about health and activity. The ads lean into a simple but relatable insight: many people enthusiastically chase fitness goals at the start of a new year, only to lose steam within days. Apple’s campaign directly tackles that pattern by showing everyday scenarios where people choose movement over inertia, with…

AI has already changed how we work, travel, and communicate – but we’re still finding new uses for it every day. Over the past year, I’ve used it to help tweak my fitness goals, and it’s made me realise just how incredibly useful a tool it would have been when I first started out. If you’re jumping into fitness for your New Year’s resolution (whether for the first time or not), I’ve outlined a few key ways that AI can massively help you reach success. From helping you lose weight to improving your cardio or gaining muscle (or all of…

iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max users are experiencing something very unusual: a faint hissing or static-like noise coming from the phone’s speakers while charging. According to a report by MacRumors, citing discussions on Reddit, Apple’s Community Support, and its own discussion forum, affected users are noticing a hissing sound or noise when their phone is charging (via a wired or MagSafe charging solution), and the screen is awake. Unplugging the iPhone stops the sound. Subtle but hard to ignore once you hear it While some users report hearing an unusual sound when playing an audio track through…

The Central Florida Expressway Authority (CFX) has confirmed it is working on a 4.4-mile highway (connecting Lake and Orange counties) that will feature a section capable of wirelessly charging EVs, not just when they’re parked above a charging pad, but while they’re on the go (via ENRX). Backed by more than $540 million, the project will not only connect the rapidly growing regions but also serve as a testing ground for dynamic wireless EV charging. Over the 4.4-mile section, the walk will include a 0.75-mile stretch with inductive coils underneath the concrete pavement. Why commercial fleets stand to gain the…

Samsung’s latest firmware update for the Galaxy Watch 4 and Galaxy Watch 4 Classic, which introduced One UI 8 Watch (based on Wear OS 6) to the devices, has run into some serious trouble.

Dreame Technology, a Chinese brand best known for home cleaning solutions such as cordless vacuums and robot cleaners, has teased (not launched) an all-electric hypercar with a claimed output of 1,000 horsepower. While the brand dropped a couple of teasers in early December, it has officially announced its first car ever ahead of the CES 2026. It’s worth noting that Dreame has unveiled only a few images of the hypercar, which remains unnamed for now. Dreame’s unexpected leap into high-performance EVs The four-door coupe resembles the Bugatti Brouillard (not the Chiron) with its low-profile design and overall silhouette. On the…

2025 was a stellar year for video games, and consequently, also a stellar year for video game music. These aren’t official Game Informer awards for the best music of the year (though we did award South of Midnight best original score), but rather an opportunity for us as a staff to point to some of the tracks that stood out to us this year. Check out some of our picks below.From Alex Van AkenOne of my favorite video game composers, Sam Webster (Grindstone, Reigns: Beyond), teamed up with developer Furcula to tackle the soundtrack and sound design for Morsels.

Before Microsoft shipped the Surface Duo with Android, it was meant to run a custom version of Windows called Andromeda OS, built specifically for dual-screen devices. That plan was quietly scrapped years ago. Now, thanks to a leaked build and some serious developer effort, you can finally see what Microsoft was working on and even try it yourself. For the uninitiated, Andromeda OS was a Windows 10-based platform that looked and felt a lot like Windows Phone, complete with Live Tiles and a Start Menu designed to stretch across two displays. Microsoft originally envisioned it as the software foundation for…

As someone who cannot dance, still loves to dance, and especially loves watching professional dancers, I’ve observed K-pop from a distance for years, never knowing where to start with this genre. On a whim last Fall, I watched Netflix’s Pop Star Academy: Katseye, a documentary series created in collaboration with international record labels Hybe and Geffen Records that follows the creation of a global girl pop group in the style of K-pop. Through this documentary, I came to appreciate the rigorous (at times, too rigorous, given these were teenagers and young women being treated with questionable standards) and perfectionist artistry embedded…
