The Google Pixel 9 Just Leaked Again The purported Pixel 9 Pro XL (left) and the Pixel 9 (right). | Image: pixo_unpacking via TikTok We might not have to wait until August to get a full-on look at the Google Pixel 9 lineup. A new set of videos posted to the TikTok account pixo_unpacking shows what appears to be the Pixel 9 and 9 Pro XL, as spotted earlier by GSMArena. The videos track with the leaks we’ve seen so far, with the Pixel 9 and 9 Pro XL swapping out the Pixel 8’s camera visor for an oval-shaped housing that protrudes from the back of the device. As shown in the video embedded below, the Pixel 9 Pro XL looks much larger than the base Pixel 9, and nearly…

UGREEN Nexode Pro 65W: Slim Wall Charger for Behind the Cabinet The UGREEN Nexode Pro 65W USB-C can also be used as a travel charger, but when looking at the slim wall charger, we first think of "wasted" sockets that are hidden behind a cabinet or similar furniture. Thanks to its flat design and the parallel-to-the-wall connector sockets, interesting usage possibilities arise. Equipped with a total power of 65 watts, the charger has two USB-C ports and one USB-A socket. As usual, the maximum output for a single device, such as a charging notebook, can only be achieved if no other consumers are connected. If multiple devices are connected at the same time, the total power is accordingly divided. For example, the power supply can simultaneously deliver 45 watts and…

Mac: Netzwerkdienstprogramm kommt als Freeware zurück Wer erinnert sich noch an Apples Netzwerkdienstprogramm? Die Anwendung hat früher zum Standard-Lieferumfang von Mac-Betriebssystemen gehört, wurde allerdings mit dem Update auf macOS 11 Big Sur vor vier Jahren entfernt. Die Entwickler von DEVONtechnologies haben das Programm jetzt zu neuem Leben erweckt. Bei der von DEVONtechnologies kostenlos angebotenen neuen Anwendung „Neo Network Utility“ handelt es sich natürlich nicht um Apples Original, sondern stattdessen um eine Eigenentwicklung, die allerdings sowohl optisch als auch vom Funktionsumfang kaum von der alten Apple-Software zu unterscheiden ist. Selbst der Name „Netzwerkdienstprogramm“ ist auf deutschen Betriebssystemen identisch. Genau wie die einst von Apple angebotene Anwendung bietet das Netzwerkdienstprogramm von DEVONtechnologies die Möglichkeit, sich an zentraler Stelle detaillierte Informationen über die einzelnen Netzwerkschnittstellen und -funktionen anzeigen zu lassen. Dabei kommen auch…

AMD’s New AI Chips Have a Home in HP’s Next Copilot Plus Laptop The HP OmniBook Ultra features an AMD Ryzen AI 300 series processor and integrated AMD Radeon 800M graphics. Image: HP HP’s resurrected OmniBook line will soon be getting a performance boost with the new HP OmniBook Ultra featuring an AMD Ryzen AI 300-series processor with integrated AMD Radeon 800M graphics, up to 32GB of RAM, and a pair of 40Gbps Thunderbolt 4 USB-C ports. Available starting in August for $1,449.99, the new HP Omnibook Ultra will eventually receive a free software update to make it one of the first Copilot Plus PCs not powered by an ARM processor. The OmniBook branding was originally revived back in May with the HP OmniBook X AI laptop which, as with…

HomePod mini: "Midnight" Replaces "Space Grey" as the Dark Color Option Apple has replaced the dark "Space Grey" variant of the HomePod mini with a new color called "Midnight". Don't worry if you're having a hard time spotting the difference visually, as it is quite minimal. The performance specifications of the small Siri speaker remain unchanged, as far as we know. The most significant update is that the dark version of the HomePod mini now features a mesh fabric made entirely from recycled materials. Apple's press release regarding this makes it seem as though the "Space Grey" color never existed for the HomePod mini. It only mentions that Apple is expanding the HomePod mini's color range—which includes Yellow, Orange, Blue, and White—to now include "Midnight". The new version of the…

Apple Launches a Black HomePod mini Apple Launches a Black HomePod mini Apple just launched a version of its HomePod mini smart speaker in a new “midnight” color. The new dark color looks very similar to the original space gray that the mini launched in, but the new naming brings it in line with the midnight HomePod 2nd gen that was released early last year. It goes up for sale on July 17th in the US (still for $99) and 31 other countries. The HomePod mini only launched with two colors — space gray and white — initially, but Apple later added yellow, orange, and blue. Apple says the new mini’s mesh is made with 100 percent recycled mesh. Until now, the smart speaker has used 90 percent recycled material.…

The DOJ Antitrust Division Isn’t Afraid to Go to Court The DOJ Antitrust Division Isn’t Afraid to Go to Court When the Department of Justice released its more than 70-page lawsuit against Apple, its narrative read more like a docu-drama than a stodgy legal document. It dropped the reader right into a 2010 exchange between an Apple executive and then-CEO Steve Jobs, who were just beginning to recognize how easy it was for customers to switch to their rivals’ products — unless they did something to stop it. This kind of writing, sometimes called a speaking complaint, is a far cry from the rote retelling you often find in lawsuits. That’s not a surprise once you know that Hetal Doshi, lead of the nascent litigation program within the Antitrust Division,…

Terminator Zero: First Look at Netflix's New Anime Terminator Heads Back to 1997 in First Trailer for Netflix Anime Image: Netflix The first animated take on Terminator is looking pretty slick in its debut teaser trailer. Netflix just released the first proper look at Terminator Zero, which is helmed by anime powerhouse Production I.G and starts streaming on August 29th. The show follows a resistance fighter sent to the distant past of 1997, where she’s tasked with protecting a scientist who is developing an AI that can compete with Skynet, which would potentially be good news for humanity. It’s hard to get much of a sense of the story from the teaser, but Zero looks very intense, with lots of explosions and robotic skulls. The voice cast includes André Holland,…

Kompressor für Mac: Bilder schnell und einfach konvertieren Kompressor für Mac: Bilder schnell und einfach konvertieren Die Mac-Anwendung Kompressor ist ein erstklassiges Werkzeug zum Konvertieren und Komprimieren von Fotos. Mit der neu veröffentlichten Version 1.0.8 fügt der aus Deutschland stammende Entwickler der App zwar keine neuen Funktionen hinzu, ergänzt jedoch die Möglichkeit, die App über die ersten drei Konvertierungen hinweg kostenlos und in vollem Umfang zu testen. Regulär kann man die Anwendung entweder zum Preis von 9,99 Euro als Lifetime-Version kaufen oder für 0,99 Euro im Monat beziehungsweise 5,99 Euro im Jahr abonnieren. Auch wenn diese Preise absolut im Rahmen sind, dürfte eine Kaufentscheidung im Anschluss an einen unverbindlichen Test in jedem Fall leichter fallen. Dergleichen sollte eigentlich zum Standard bei allen kostenpflichtigen App-Angeboten gehören. Drag-and-Drop und Stapelverarbeitung „Kompressor“ richtet…
