After making the decision to exit the smartphone market back in 2021, LG is preparing to sunset its Android update servers for good. This move comes as no surprise to those following the phone market, but it’s no less disheartening, particularly to those still rocking an LG handset.The kill switch will be pulled on June 30, 2025, roughly four years after the company’s exit from the market. At the time, LG said it would still offer three years of software updates, a promise that was fulfilled to completion. Some handsets were reportedly receiving security updates until recently. So at least…

Rock hyraxes, known in southern Africa more often as “dassies,” are furry, thickset creatures with short legs and no discernible tails. They spend much of their time sunning themselves on rocky outcrops.Another thing they sometimes do is drag their butts along the ground. Dog owners know that this behavior can be a sign of parasitic infections; in hyraxes the reason seems to be less clear, but this action leaves distinctive traces in sandy areas.Traces and tracks — ancient, fossilized ones — are what we study at the African Centre for Coastal Palaeoscience through the Cape south coast ichnology project. Over…
I won’t mince words: Sling TV is confusing. It has, by far, the most confusing lineup of plans and add-ons out of any of the live TV streaming services I tested. There are a handful of core plans, none of which encompass the scale of Hulu Live TV, YouTube TV, or DirecTV, as well as about half a dozen add-ons to bring the channel roster up to par. This modular approach is annoying while shopping, though it also means you can save quite a bit of money by only picking up what you need.The core of Sling is Blue and…

The upcoming Pixel 10 handset might arrive to user’s eyes with an upgraded display with less flicker than the existing models in the lineup. The suggestion comes from Android Central’s Nicholas Sutrich, who’s been spearheading efforts to raise awareness of this issue for a while now. Here’s an oversimplified explanation: OLED displays don’t really have a global brightness setting—they just turn off and on many times per second to give the illusion of lower brightness. The rate at which this happens is called the PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) rate.Although it isn’t immediately apparent when just glancing at an OLED display…
It looks like Apple is finally ready to take the smart home seriously. A new report claims the company is launching its first smart displays in early 2026, but it faces a huge uphill battle against Google and Amazon.What’s the latest on Apple’s smart home strategy?Apple’s dabbling in the smart home has always felt a bit half-baked, right? The HomePod is a great speaker, but it’s hardly the center of a connected home ecosystem. Well, that might finally be changing. According to a new report, Apple is planning to kick off a real smart home strategy in the March-April 2026…
Archaeologists excavating in the French Riviera have uncovered a massive Roman cremation cemetery. Careful work at the site has revealed the step-by-step process the Romans used to cremate their dead and honor them in the afterlife.More than 160 cremation graves were discovered at the ancient site of Olbia, which began as a fortified Greek settlement around 350 B.C. in what is now the south of France. The geographer Strabo mentioned Olbia was a city of the Massiliotes — the people of nearby Massilia (modern-day Marseille). When Marseille was captured by Julius Caesar in 49 B.C., Olbia became a Roman city…
Nothing matches the pride of hearing a meticulously tuned straight-six come to life or running your hand over the mirror-smooth fender you spent months perfecting. Yet every seasoned restorer knows that the vehicle itself is only half the story; the specialty tools that keep it road-ready are just as critical to long-term value. Proper tool care is a cornerstone of good maintenance, which not only preserves value but also improves fuel efficiency and produces less vehicle emissions. Lose a calibrated torque wrench to rust, or crack a rare trim-clip remover, and you pay twice: once to replace the tool and…
The Omni looks nice. It’s a step up from your average office chair design, with a bit of class and a design language on the backrest that resembles the spine-like look of the Herman Miller Embody. It comes in Midnight Black or Space Gray (creative names), and my unit is the latter. The company says the Omni can support people up to 300 pounds.I don’t think I’ve sat on an office chair with softer padding than the Omni. The multi-density sponge cushion material of the seat and backrest is plush without feeling like you’re sinking in, because it isn’t super…
