    News Samsung admits to Galaxy S25 Ultra camera glitch — software update coming this week

    As a Pixel owner, just a friendly reminder to any militant Sammy fans who always make it a point to drag Pixels when a problem is reported: All brands have problems, bugs, flaws, shortcomings. Samsung is no different. Please remember this the next time you're tempted to ridicule Pixel buyers.

    News Pixel 8’s initial Gemini AI snub was down to RAM, Google says

    I don't consider it a snub; I have no use for Gemini features and don't want this forced on me, especially if there's a performance hit. Hey Google, no thanks.

    News Reacher' season 3 release date speculation, cast, plot and more

    Oh goodie.. More scenes where Reacher and team forgo all reason, as well as being immune to bullets, fights, explosions, any blunt force, law enforcement, financial concerns, consequences, and probably gravity. Here's an idea... Have a plot and make the characters, you know, subject to the...
