iOS 18.2 will reportedly allow users to “trust” a new computer without entering their passcode. The next iOS update is expected to arrive in December, and Apple rolled out the second developer beta version earlier this week. Unlike iOS 18.1, which mostly added support for a couple of Apple Intelligence features on eligible iPhone, iPad, and Mac computers, the company is expected to introduce more features with the iOS 18.2 update next month, including the ability to share the location of lost items with trusted people and the ability to change focus and exposure lock on the Camera Control button.iOS 18.2…

The Voyager 1 and 2 probes have been on a remarkable journey. Since their launch in 1977, they have traveled through the solar system, past several of the outer planets, and headed out beyond the borders of the solar system and into interstellar space. They are the most distant man-made objects in the universe, and they are still going — even 47 years after they first left Earth. Keeping the old technology running for this long hasn’t been easy, though. Various instruments have had to be turned off in order to save power, and the probes have had their share…

Google Pixel phones include a Call Screen feature that could soon be upgraded with new artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities, according to a report. The Mountain View-based tech giant is reportedly working on an ‘AI Replies’ feature which will generate smart replies based on what the caller has said, instead of the standard replies seen in the current version of Call Screen. The feature is currently under development, so it will not be visible in the latest version of the Phone app on Pixel devices, and could be rolled out to the company’s devices in the future.Google Pixel to Reportedly Get AI…

It’s always great to have the latest model, but it’s expensive, slightly wasteful, and becoming more unnecessary all the time to change regularly. You’re a lot stronger than I am if you can resist the siren call. What is there to do? If you want to get off the expensive tech upgrade train, you need to buy a product that will last and take years to be genuinely superseded. What you need is a smart ring, as I think…

It was only a matter of time before Robert Zemeckis got around to playing with de-aging technology, that modern cinematic magic trick of making veteran movie stars look kind of, sort of like their younger selves. The director of Forrest Gump and the Back to the Future trilogy has spent most of his career dabbling in the possibilities of digital effects — and, in several cases, advancing them. Inevitably, that vanguard preoccupation has led him to the same CGI fountain of youth from which unnervingly de-wrinkled, waxlike hologram phantoms of Samuel L. Jackson, Robert De Niro, and — going back…

Apple made quite a splash this year with the iPhone 16 lineup. In fact, the base model iPhone 16 appeared to be the star of the show, with phenomenal colors and even more Pro-level features than ever before. And whether you love it or hate it, the new vertical camera layout breathes some fresh life into the phone. But I didn’t go for the base model this year, even though I really wanted a pink iPhone. Instead, I went with the iPhone 16 Pro, as drab as it may look compared to the iPhone 16. I was excited about some…
