Huawei made a whole camera to attach to its latest phone
I’m sorry, this is just a camera that makes phone calls. | Image: Huawei Over the last few years, Chinese Android manufacturers have followed Vivo's example of launching add-on "teleconverter" lenses for their flagship phones, enabling long-distance photography that the phones on their own could never match. Today, Huawei one-upped everybody with the add-on lens for its Mate 90 Pro Max flagship, which is not only a comically huge zoom lens, but also includes its own image sensor. The 1-inch-type, 50-megapixel RYYB sensor inside the Ruiying Z10 is bigger than any inside the phone itself, so attaching this lens doesn't just give you better glass, it's actually a complete overhaul of the camera capabilities. And wh … Read the full story at The Verge.
This very fancy e-bike is one of the first to go semi-solid state
Lemmo wants you to call it an SUV. | Image: Lemmo The Lemmo 3 is the first cargo bike from the respected German e-bike maker. This premium, step-through longtail is a slightly less insane take on Rivian's Also TM-B, with one major advantage: It's one of the first electric bikes to feature a semi-solid state battery. Semi-solid state batteries are far safer than traditional lithium-ion batteries. Their gel-like composition offers improved energy density, with far less risk of thermal runaway. That translates to improved range and longevity from a more compact battery that's unlikely to catch fire when left charging overnight in your house or business. The semi-solid state electrolyte even … Read the full story at The Verge.
The People of Utah vs. Kevin O’Leary
On the morning of May 11th, the celebrity investor Kevin O’Leary appeared on Fox Business and announced that he was under attack by Chinese agents. For weeks, he had been going on TV and posting online to tout his project, called Wonder Valley, after his nickname from the reality show Shark Tank, Mr. Wonderful. It was going to be enormous, “the largest data center in the world,” sitting on 40,000 acres north of Great Salt Lake in rural Box Elder County, Utah. A dedicated gas power plant would tap into an interstate pipeline and generate 9 gigawatts of electricity, more than double the average consumption of the entire state. The project was coming so fast, thanks to Utah’s governor and legislative leaders, O’Leary said, that “it shows China and the rest of the world we aren’t messing around.” But now, wearing a black baseball cap printed with the words “Utah National Security,” he told Maria Bartiromo that he had noticed something baffling. Ever since the three county commissioners una
Noise from Universal’s latest ride made rich locals furious, fast
Don’t have too much fun, you’ll upset the neighbors. | Photo: Ronaldo Bolaños / Los Angeles Times via Getty Images Universal Studios Hollywood has pledged to erect another sound barrier around its latest attraction after local residents complained about the bloodcurdling screams from riders. In a meeting attended by at least 350 people yesterday, park execs also promised that Fast Furious: Hollywood Drift won't operate between 8AM and 9AM for the rest of the year, Deadline reports. Several mitigations have already been implemented into the ride - which opened on September 16th this year - including an existing sound barrier, designing the 72 mph rollercoaster to barely make a sound during operation, and even making the rider cars turn away from the re … Read the full story at The Verge.
Elon Musk’s Grokipedia has a ‘newly refreshed’ design
Grokipedia, SpaceXAI's AI-powered competitor to Wikipedia, recently started incorporating edits again, and today, it got some design tweaks as part of a v0.3 update, including a new logo and refreshes to its homepage and live edits page. SpaceXAI head of design Benji Taylor calls it a "newly refreshed Grokipedia." Grokipedia's old homepage was pretty much just a logo and a search bar, but the updated homepage includes a list of featured articles, a list of the most-read articles, and a tracker showing the "latest edits." The new featured list showcases digital representations of books that you can spin around, and the most read section also … Read the full story at The Verge.

The Pentagon taps Elon Musk and Palmer Luckey to help decide what the military should do next
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth just launched a 120-day study on the future of warfare, led by Elon Musk, Palmer Luckey, and Newt Gingrich, and while it makes sense given their ties to the administration, critics could point out that Musk's and Luckey's companies already sell the kinds of technology the study is likely to recommend.
