BYD has made no secret of its ambition to build more of its own technology. That includes everything from batteries to electric motors, and now even the AI chips that power advanced driver assistance systems.

One look at the Red Magic 11S Pro, and you can tell it’s not trying to be subtle. This isn’t chasing the overly polished look and feel of a modern flagship smartphone. It isn’t trying to convince you it’s a great camera phone, either. This thing looks like it escaped from the desk of someone who still thinks transparent electronics are the peak of industrial design. Many phones call themselves gaming phones, then spend half their time trying to look normal. The Red Magic 11S Pro has no such insecurity. The transparent back looks absolutely bonkers, with visible liquid cooling,…

The changes…

A major new study now warns that regular screen use before age two may carry developmental risks. Researchers from four UK universities say babies and toddlers under two should avoid regular intentional screen time. The review links higher screen exposure in the first two years with sleep problems, language delays, behavioural difficulties, obesity risk, short-sightedness, and later problems with friendships and social interactions. The risks start early The study, commissioned by the 1001 Critical Days…
Forgetting the recovery phrase to a crypto wallet can be stressful enough. Unfortunately, that’s exactly the moment scammers are waiting for.

His latest project is a full outfit, from shirt to shoes, belt to glasses, because apparently nobody told him 3D printers are for creating engineering prototypes or structures that aren’t otherwise feasible, not for fashion week. So how did it actually go, and what did it cost? Trahan’s checklist for his latest video included ten items: a shirt, shorts, shoes, socks, a belt, a hat, a wallet, a bag, a tie, and…
If you were hoping the memory crisis was about to ease up, I have some bad news for you. It comes directly from Wall Street.
