Verizon is treading water carefully these days. While the company has raised the price of its top-tier plan for new customers, it is still doling out benefits and discounts to ensure it doesn’t alienate budget-conscious customers. Verizon remains the priciest carrier on the block, and the latest developments explain why its core customer base may not have a problem with that.Infrastructure improvementsVerizon still insists it has the best network, even if it has admitted that the gap is closing. The company continues to make improvements behind the scenes, as evidenced by a new report from RCR Wireless.SVP and Chief Network…
In the Strait of Hormuz, Iran has developed an asymmetrical naval strategy that is crippling the passage of container ships. This “hemostat” uses guerrilla tactics, after Iran’s “traditional” fleet was almost entirely destroyed by US and Israeli attacks. No longer able to rely on specialized military ships, Tehran is using an unconventional force made up of dozens of small military vessels armed with missiles, machine guns, and drones. Quick and nimble, this “mosquito fleet” is capable of assaulting ships carrying tons of cargo.In mid-April, US president Donald Trump had reassured the public in a post on Truth Social that Iran’s…
When I was a younger, angrier, and dumber person, I spent more hours than I’d like to admit surfing some of the seedier parts of the internet. During these long sessions, I was often watching, reading about, or seeking out some of the violent, disturbing, or horrific videos people shared online as part of the then-popular race to post the most horrible, edgy stuff possible on places like LiveLeak, 4chan, and SomethingAwful. I’ve long since grown up and realized how terrible it is to consume that crap. But I’ll never forget some of the shit I saw. Because of that…
Google didn’t wait for its main I/O keynote on May 19 to set the tone. During tonight’s Android Show, the message was clear: 2026 is all about making things easier. Alongside the reveal of Android 17 and how it reshapes our phone experience, Google also focused on improving some of the key apps we use every day, including Instagram and Adobe.Introducing Screen ReactionsReaction videos are super popular on social media, but creating compelling ones can be quite challenging. Google sets out to address challenges by launching Screen Reactions.Why spend hours on a reaction video? | Video by GoogleIt lets you…
“Our goal is to be able to have it as customizable as possible, pulling from all sorts of data sources that you ask it to be able to create a custom widget for you,” Brooks says. Maybe that means creating a weather widget that shows Celsius and Fahrenheit for when you’re traveling abroad. Or a countdown to your next marathon. Or a widget that shows three new high-protein meal prep recipes every week.What does this mean for the future of the home screen? Will we still have app grids? Or will every person’s phone have its own look and feel,…
Back in December, Tekken director Katsuhiro Harada announced he was leaving Bandai Namco after decades of leading the publisher’s marquee fighting game series. His announcement was reflective and heartfelt, and fans wished him well wherever he was going next. Now, we know where he’s going, and oh, no…not like this, Harada. Harada is now the CEO and director at VS Studio, a new team under the SNK umbrella. At a glance, that sounds like the stuff of fanfiction, with one veteran fighting game legend heading over to another company known for classics like King of Fighters and Fatal Fury, and…
The Land Of Confusion The FCC has banned the sale all foreign consumer grade routers, except for the ones they didn’t, banned selling all foreign WiFi hotspots, except for the ones they made an exception for and also banned firmware and software updates for existing products, except now they haven’t. Oh, and at some point foreign made drones and parts got added to the bans as well. If you think you are confused, TP-Link have applied for an exception to the ban, but at this point it’s hard to say what they are getting exemption from. This confusion is likely…
Google’s pre-I/O event used to feel like a warmup act, however, that idea is now long gone as that hasn’t been the case this year. The Android Show: I/O Edition 2026 packed in a brand-new laptop category, a much smarter Android, a long-overdue cross-platform sharing push, and a security overhaul that finally goes after banking scams. Here’s everything that landed today, with links to our deeper coverage where we have it.Googlebook is here, and it’s Google’s biggest swing in over a decadeGoogle officially unveiled Googlebook, a new laptop category built from the ground up for Gemini Intelligence.

Almost exactly 15 years since Google introduced Chromebooks and ChromeOS—which ushered a wave of cheap, functional, web-based laptops that would come to dominate the US education market—the company has announced a new laptop platform called Googlebook. It’s built around artificial intelligence and Android, and while it isn’t replacing Chromebooks, it could give the company a more meaningful foothold in the premium computer market.Google announced the platform on The Android Show on YouTube, where it also detailed new features coming in Android 17 and Gemini Intelligence (you can read more about that here). Google is purposefully not sharing the operating system’s…
“At first I thought that I should look for pizza places nearby,” explained the Reddit user. “But then I realized that Rockstar North is in Scotland(close enough to England), which means they prefer their tea more than they prefer their pizza….so surely they would have a much busier traffic around tea places, and sure enough. I am right.” They then ended their post with “Thoughts?” Reaction to the post, which has over 1.5k upvotes as of Tuesday, has been mostly people replying with a form of “Holy crap, fans are getting desperate.” But one user replied and wondered if this…
