Apple plans to release MacBook Airs with M4 chips in early 2025, Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman reports. The company just refreshed the lineup with M3 chips this spring, but the M4 update will “likely” launch between January and March 2025, Gurman says. Both the 13-inch and 15-inch models will apparently get the M4 update, and they’ll have a similar design to the M2 MacBook Air.
The potential spring launch for M4-equipped MacBook Airs means...

When Apple said that iPhone owners in the EU would be able to set new default apps for things like calling and messaging, it sounded a lot like only people in the EU would get that option.
That’s not the case, though: a note on Apple’s developer website states that all users worldwide can set new default apps for calling and messaging in iOS 18.2. Maybe the continental divide between iPhones in the US and EU...

Humane is dropping the price of the AI Pin by $200 in an attempt to reverse the AI gadget’s very poor sales. The product launched earlier this year at $699, but now, you can buy one starting at $499.
This $499 version is the “eclipse” model that is a matte black anodized aluminum, and it doesn’t come with an extra battery or the charge case. The latter makes some sense given that the company warned AI Pin owners not to use the charge...
Robert Paxton thought the label was overused. But now he’s alarmed by what he sees in global politics — including Trumpism.
One voter’s mistake has been transformed into a voter fraud conspiracy theory, catapulted into the national spotlight by Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene.
The former president and his closest allies are returning to debunked claims about hacked machines as they prepare to contest the vote next month.
The NBA is likely to begin an investigation later this week into the Philadelphia 76ers surrounding the player participation of All-NBA center Joel Embiid, sources told ESPN on Wednesday.

Say goodbye to the guilt generated by those plastic air pillows stuffed into your Amazon purchase — the company announced earlier this month it's ceasing use of the eco-unfriendly packaging material.
"As of October 2024, we’ve removed all plastic air pillows from our delivery packaging used at our global fulfillment centers," Amazon wrote on its blog. "As part of this transition, we were able to quickly expand our use of paper filler made from 100% recycled content across North America to...

— Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter)...Next time you shop on Amazon, it might look quite different. The tech giant is testing a redesigned app that'll have a completely different look, and it began rolling out to some customers this week.
Perhaps the most noticeable change is what Amazon has called its new "window display." In the updated homepage, upon opening the app, users are greeted with large panels that swipe horizontally. Picture an Instagram carousel of sorts. Those panels are all personalized recommendations for the...
