Welcome to TNW Basics, a collection of tips, guides, and advice on how to easily get the most out of your gadgets, apps, and other stuff. There’s a lot of internet and there are a ton of articles to read. But you can’t catch up on all of them in one day, so it’s important to have a system to save or bookmark them somewhere.

Bacteria – yes, bacteria – could be the key to recycling EV batteries

There are more than 1.4 billion cars in the world today, and that number could double by 2036. If all those cars burn petrol or diesel, the climate consequences will be dire. Electric cars emit fewer air pollutants and if they’re powered by renewable energy, driving one wouldn’t add to the greenhouse gases warming Earth’s atmosphere. But producing so many electric vehicles (often abbreviated to EVs) in a decade would... Read more â€ș

Cross your fingers, Instagram is widely testing desktop uploads

Since its inception, Instagram has been a mobile-first app. While it has a website where you can look at your feed, watch Stories, and chat with your friends over DMs, you can’t post photos. Well, that’s about to change as the company is rolling out a desktop upload feature to select users. Multiple people on Twitter noted that they’re seeing this functionappear for them on Instagram‘s desktop site. Now we're... Read more â€ș

Just how bad is it to have fake startup employees?

Last week on Growth Quarters we asked, do you really need a sales team to scale? This week we’re asking
 do you even need real employees? App-based helicopter and charter flight booking platform, Blade Air Mobility says: nope. After performing a pointless catch-me-if-you-can exercise with reporters from Business Insider, last week the company finally admitted its spokesperson of three years, Simon McLaren, didn’t exist. The “jaded New Yorker, raconteur, college... Read more â€ș

Windows 11 will run Android apps thanks to Amazon and Intel

Microsoft announced Windows 11 alongside a bazillion new features today, but by far the most surprising of these was the introduction of Android apps to Windows — no thanks to Google, apparently. Yes, you read that right. Android apps will be available right through the Microsoft Store, which will pull Android apps via the Amazon Appstore. (If you’re wondering why Amazon has an app store, it’s for its Fire tablets... Read more â€ș

Windows 11 announcement: Everything you need to know

After weeks of teasers and leaks, Windows 11 is official. Messy livestream aside, it looks like a sweet update. Though a leaked build revealed some of what was to come, and the OS upgrade doesn’t look quite as dramatic as, say, the jump from Windows 8 to Windows 10 Microsoft says it has a lot more in store for Windows 11‘s official launch later this year. You can watch Microsoft‘s... Read more â€ș

The future of US AI policy may hinge on a pretend war against a fictional China

War is coming. Later this year the US military will fight its most advanced war campaign ever as it faces off against a fictionalized version of China. The battles will be fake, but the results should provide the government with everything it needs to justify the mass development of lethal autonomous weapons systems (LAWS). The era of government-controlled killer robots is upon us. Up front: US military leaders have increasingly... Read more â€ș

Nvidia AI could let you make video calls in your PJs without anyone knowing

Known as Vid2Vid Cameo, the deep learning model is designed to improve the experience of videoconferencing. If you’re running late for a call, you could roll out of bed in your pajamas and disheveled hair,  upload a photo of you dressed to impress, and the AI will map your facial... Read more â€ș

Microsoft’s big Windows 11 announcement screwed up by a lagtastic livestream

I was pretty hyped about Microsoft’s big Windows 11 reveal today. I’m a self-proclaimed Windows fanboy — we exist! — and after the company claimed Windows 10 would be the “last version of Windows,” the news of Windows 11 hit like a nerdy Christmas. So I fully expected my first article of the day to be a straight piece about the new features coming to the OS. Instead, I’m writing... Read more â€ș

UK fails to explain what the hell those green number plates are

Last December, the UK introduced “green plates” for EVs in an effort to raise awareness of zero-emission cars. Exciting, I know.  Bearing a green strip down the left side, they’re easily distinguishable from the regular number plates. This means the public can identify these people as the saints of sustainable transport they are.  At least, that’s what the government thought. From today, green number plates may be legally fitted on... Read more â€ș

Is Mario Golf or ‘real’ golf better? We solved it with MATH

I’ve spent the past couple of weeks playing the brand new Mario Golf: Super Rush on the Nintendo Switch. And you know what? It’s fantastic. Ever since I completed the Tony Hawk’s remaster, I’ve been looking for an arcade-style sports game to wile away many happy hours on — and the new Mario Golf is just that. But

TLDR: EasySplitter Pro Vocal Remover uses artificial intelligence to easily break down a song into up to four separate digital stems for all your music production and singalong desires. Serious audio recording started at the beginning of the 20th century, but it took until the 1940s before multitracking — the process of recording separate elements of a piece of music, then editing them together later — got started.

 electric powertrains?

Soon LG phones will be a relic of the past, as the company announced in April that on July 31 it will kill its mobile business worldwide. To compensate for its losses in the smartphone market, the South Korean company will turn to the profitable EV industry. But don’t expect an G- or V- EV series. LG will focus on what it knows best: electronics, only this time for auto... Read more â€ș

How the SPAC bubble blew up and burst

What do Taylor Swift’s record company and Asian “super-app” Grab have in common? They are both part of Wall Street’s recent dealmaking fad: Special Purpose Acquisition Companies (SPAC). SPACs are shell companies that are floated on the stock market with one purpose: to buy another company. This aims to achieve the same as a stock-market listing or initial public offering (IPO) but in reverse. Instead of a traditional company seeking... Read more â€ș
