Google delays its plans to shelve free G Suite accounts
 by a month

Earlier this year, Google announced that it was going to discontinue the free version of G Suite. The company gave you two options: choose a paid plan, or continue with a no-cost plan with a self-hosted email address. Now the search giant has issued a few key updates to this rollout plan on its support page. It’s giving users a bit more time to switch to new plans. Google has... Read more â€ș

How to prevent apps from running at startup in Windows 11

It happens to every Windows user eventually. You buy a fancy new PC, and everything runs smoothly at first. And then, slowly but surely, it starts to feel more sluggish. Every week or month, things take just a little longer to load, until your PC feels like it’s running Windows 1.0, not Windows 11. If this describes you, it’s probably about time you take a look at which apps are... Read more â€ș

Elon Musk’s appointment to Twitter’s board restricts his influence — for now

Elon Musk’s arrival on Twitter’s board has sparked both hopes and fears about the platform’s future, but his appointment has constrained his power — for now. Musk has agreed to cap his Twitter stake at 14.9% during his stint on the board and for 90 days thereafter. His term is set to end in 2024. The Tesla tycoon’s existing 9.2% stake makes him the platform’s largest shareholder. If he wants... Read more â€ș

The new venture, called Equilibre Technologies, will employ algorithms to pick stocks and cryptocurrency.

A web3 clone of Wikipedia may help Russians, but it’s dividing the tech community

While a brutal armed conflict rages on Ukrainian soil, an information war is unfolding online. Russia is seeking to control the narrative by muffling dissent. Last month, the Kremlin blocked several social media platforms and threatened lengthy jail terms for spreading “false information” about the invasion. A series of domestic alternatives to American apps are now being promoted, from RuTube to Rossgram. Critics describe the latter as “absolute shit.” The... Read more â€ș

VanMoof’s new ebikes are part of a masterplan to become the Tesla of two-wheelers

VanMoof has long been described as the Tesla of electric bikes and with the announcement of its newest vehicles — the S5 and A5 — the company wants to continue following the trajectory of Elon Musk’s automaker. On paper, VanMoof is in with a good shot. Over the past couple of years, it raised $182 million (second only to Rad Power) and has emerged as, arguably, the most popular ebike... Read more â€ș

The Hubble telescope just spotted the most distant star ever detected

The Hubble Space Telescope has observed the most distant star ever seen – Earendel, meaning morning star. Even though Earendel is 50 times the mass of the Sun, and millions of times brighter, we would not normally be able to see it. We can see it due to an alignment of the star with a large galaxy cluster in front of it whose gravity bends the light from the star... Read more â€ș

The DeLorean Motor Company (DMC) was originally established in 1973 by, yes, John DeLorean. Unfortunately, it declared bankruptcy in 1982, and was... Read more â€ș

Google sibling SandboxAQ bursts onto the quantum scene like the Kool-Aid Man

We’re firmly entrenched in the quantum era. There weren’t any announcements and there wasn’t any fanfare. It just sort of happened. One day we were in the deep learning era and the next we’d gone quantum. If we had to put a date on it, here at Neural we’d choose 22 March, 2022. That’s the day SandboxAQ slipped out of stealth mode and starbursted out of the Alphabet (Google) research... Read more â€ș

It’s not long since billionaires were competing to get to the “edge of space”. Now, the first set of private citizens is getting ready to take a SpaceX shuttle up to the International Space Station (ISS). Unlike the short “joyrides” of Richard Branson and Jeff Bezos, this mission will be reaching the roughly 400km altitude needed to dock with the ISS.

Why we need human-centered AI

Welcome to AI book reviews, a series of posts that explore the latest literature on artificial intelligence. There are two contrasting but equally disturbing images of artificial intelligence. One warns about a future in which runaway intelligence becomes smarter than humanity, creates mass unemployment, and enslaves humans in a Matrix-like world or destroys them a la Skynet. A more contemporary image is one in which dumb AI algorithms are entrusted... Read more â€ș

Vizio showing ads over live TV is a glimpse of our hellish future

Technology companies are eager to prove that the products we buy aren’t actually ours — and TV makers have embraced this more than most. I mean, what other way is there to explain why Vizio has enabled a feature on its TVs that display banner adverts over live shows?

People are buying these egg NFTs just to tweet nonsense

The burgeoning trend known as Web3 has boosted the idea of the Decentralized Autonomous Organization (DAO), which is essentially a group of people pooling money to achieve a common goal of some sort. There are all kinds of weird and wonderful DAOs out in the wild. For instance, PleaserDAO managed to grab an exclusive copy of a Wu-Tang Clan album for $4 million.

Gross and wonderful: Here’s what it’s like to get custom earbuds made

Some audiophiles spend more money on speakers than their cars. Some spend thousands of dollars on extravagant headphones, and still others shell out the Benjamins for the latest overkill DACs and amps. But if you ask me, there are few things as luxurious in the world of audio as a pair of earbuds sculpted to perfectly fit your ears. Custom in-ear monitors (IEMs) are ostensibly the endgame of sound quality... Read more â€ș
