    Apple updates all its operating systems, brings Apple Intelligence to Vision Pro

    Sounds like this release also fixes the "your login password is incorrect" bug that's been hanging around. RC1 and RC2 did at least.

    Elon Musk’s X has a new owner—Elon Musk’s xAI

    FBI probes arson of Tesla cars and facilities, says “this is domestic terrorism”

    How Polestar engineers EVs that can handle brutal winters

    My 2024 generally gets down to 2.2-2.5 in the winter depending on how deep the cold is, but a lot of that loss is from the remote start in the morning to that the thing off. But yeah, I'm regularly up around 3.5 beyond that point.

    Old Bolt, new tricks: Making an EV into a backup power station with an inverter

    We have used the V2L on our Ioniq 5 a couple times. Once in the winter to keep the pellet stove running, and another in the summer to keep the fridge running. It's a nice backup!

    Apple’s $349 iPad 11 is missing a lot, but it’s still all the iPad most people need

    I mean, this is all true, but they still haven't fixed the pencil situation. Having to Frankenstein together a charging and holding solution for the pencils is a pain in the ass. The "fix" is to spend double the price on the Air and have the pencils charge by just sitting with the iPad in the...

    Apple announces M3-powered iPad Air with improved Magic Keyboard layout

    I will probably upgrade mine and my daughter's. She has an 8, I have a 9th gen, and finally losing the Lightning cables would be nice.

    Max is pulling CNN and sports from some US subscribers starting on March 30

    Oh! Hey, thanks for the info, truthfully! I just got my first ad for this company the other day on a podcast and I was angry because I thought they were following my conversation with my doctor. Maybe they're just advertising to everyone in my age group? Anyway, my box to shit in should be...

    Max is pulling CNN and sports from some US subscribers starting on March 30

    Since they're only on the ad-free tiers, that means the sports won't have ads right? .. Right?

    Unvaccinated school-aged child dies of measles in Texas amid growing outbreak

    Unfortunately vaccine "skepticism" is an ideology that reaches across the aisle, even if it's become a major plank on one side now.

    The 2025 Hyundai Ioniq 5: The best all-around EV just got better

    You absolutely can depending on what your commute looks like. Typically you'll get about 3-4 miles per hour of charging off a standard outlet.

    Hyundai’s NACS adapter for EVs will be free to all existing owners

    The etching is basically engraving the vehicle VIN on the catalytic so that if it's stolen it can be traced back and returned. In theory. In reality, I'm not sure it matters in most cases. Especially for a vehicle that doesn't have one, but I digress...

    Hyundai’s NACS adapter for EVs will be free to all existing owners

    I bought my Ioniq 5 last summer and the dealer tried to upsell me on catalytic converter etching. The stealerships are just the worst.

    When software updates actually improve—instead of ruin—our favorite devices

    TVs used to be able to output audio to multiple devices years and years ago. This was pushed back, I'm guessing at least partially because of copy protection type bullshit, but it used to be normal. Not allowing multiple outputs should be a major accessibility issue, but manufacturers haven't...

    Students, parents, and teachers still smarting from breach exposing their info

    The problem is that, in this case at least, many of the schools hit by this were self-hosted. This was a problem with the support accounts from the Powerschool company. They didn't have 2FA enabled (how the hell do you do that in the year of our lord 2025??) and ewre breached. So if you had...
