Google has today released new updates to Veo 3.1, its AI video creation model, aimed at making life easier for creators who simply want consistent results without having to redo things repeatedly. The most obvious feature is a significant improvement to the Ingredients to Video tool. You basically have three reference images: one for the primary subject, one for the backdrop, and one for the desired look or style. Then simply add some text to get the thing going.
US prisons currently use Android tablets granted by the correctional institution as an upgrade from the gloomy electronics offered in the 1980s, 1990s, and early 2000s. Back then, convicts had a limited number of options, including shared payphones, a small portable radio, or, if they were lucky and had a few dollars, a Walkman, and possibly a few tapes or CDs if their funds were sufficient. Tablets are now primarily supplied by two major providers: Securus Technologies (by its subsidiary JPay) and ViaPath Technologies (after GTL). Jpay models, such as the JP6S, are currently dominating a lot of states; these devices run a closed down version of Android, which is often Android 8.1 these days.
Swapping a camera battery is a fairly routine task for any photographer, but up on the International Space Station, it’s about the most low-key physics lesson you could ever hope for.

GameSir’s Swift Drive is a controller that quietly transforms how racing games feel in your hands. A small steering wheel lies in the center, attached to what the manufacturer describes as the world’s smallest direct-drive motor. This system provides true force feedback, the kind that pushes and pulls on your thumbs when the road surface changes or a car begins to skid.
Samsung’s Galaxy S25 FE, priced at $448.99 (was $649.99) for the 128GB edition, is the company’s entry point into the top-tier Galaxy S family without having you to mortgage your home. It comes with Android 16 and One UI 8 already loaded, which is wonderful news for anyone who values obtaining years of software updates, as Samsung guarantees no less than seven years to be exact.
For years, the elusive Apple iPhone Fold has been the focus of numerous rumors, but as its rivals introduced their own models, it disappeared from view. It’s finally starting to look like things are coming together for Apple in the form of a display that folds without leaving a nasty crease in the middle, something that has long been a major hurdle.
The latest Hubble image released by NASA depicts an incredibly beautiful spectacle taking place in the constellation Sagittarius, just 5,500 light-years away. The Herbig-Haro objects HH 80 & HH 81 are vivid pink and green patches illuminated by jets of ionized plasma streaking diagonally across a dark cosmic background. Stretching a massive 32 light-years across, these vibrant structures are part of the greatest known outflow from a star that is still developing.
