Google Meet is currently upgrading its personal video calling experience, and as part of that the “original” app is no longer working. Despite the Google Meet brand’s victory in 2022, the “Google Duo” app had even more installs (5 billion vs. 500 million as of today). Therefore, the Google Duo app has changed to Meet and continues to receive new features: play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.apps.tachyon. But Google has to maintain the original Meet app, which was originally called “Hangouts Meet” but became “Meet” after the legacy branding was retired, and which it told business customers to download. I was there. The icon has…

No one knows what the “SE” in iPhone SE actually stands for. But there’s one thing we do know. Apple’s SE devices aren’t known for introducing completely new technology. But things look set to change this spring. The new iPhone SE is expected to come with cutting-edge upgrades. It’s the first Apple modem to handle 5G, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and GPS. What is SE? In the past, Apple’s SE branding did not refer to low-end products. For example, the Macintosh SE was a fascinating innovation from the original Macintosh. But these days, “SE” clearly indicates “budget option” even though the letters…
Talk about being moved by Star. The amazing “first part” of a detailed map of the universe, photographed by the super-powerful Euclid Space Telescope, has finally been unearthed in “pristine detail”. Filled with the dazzling light of more than a million stars and galaxies, the European Space Agency on Wednesday released stunning images that show how deep space and our Milky Way galaxy are organized. Shown is a zoomed-out collection of 260 entries taken last spring by the Euclid telescope across several galaxies. ESA/Euclid Consortium/NASA and others/SWNS An astonishing mosaic of some of the galaxies in the great universe has…
It’s been almost two months since I entered the world of the Pixel 9, and I’ve been using the Pixel 9 Pro (or its foldable companion) as my daily driver for the majority of that time, but I’ve finally decided to give it a long-term look. I’m starting to reach a conclusion. This is not possible during the rigorous review period. For me, it was a complete disappointment with this year’s roundup of AI features. While I expected Pixel Studio to be an instant flop (though it wasn’t by much), Google’s dedicated screenshot app looked pretty promising during my early…

The Amazon Kindle Scribe was clearly a first-generation device when it launched in late 2022, with flawed hardware and limited productivity software. Over the next year, Amazon applied patches with useful fixes, but the fundamental problem remained. Now, Kindle Scribe 2024 fixes almost all the complaints I had with the previous model. Amazon announced four new Kindles on Wednesday, including its first color e-ink Kindle. But the second-generation Scribe stands out to me because of one feature: Active Canvas. Essentially, you can now write directly into your e-book and keep your notes pasted into the text, even if you change…
