Trump Refuses to Do '60 Minutes' Interview Until They Apologize to Him Over 'Laptop from Hell'

Trial Date Set for Would-Be Trump Assassin Ryan Routh - but Don't Expect It to Hold

Image: Kristen Radtke / The Verge New York City Mayor Eric Adams, who was indicted last week on charges including fraud, bribery, and soliciting donations from foreign nationals, told federal investigators he forgot his phone password before handing it over, according to charging documents. That was almost a year ago, and investigators still can’t get into the phone, prosecutors said Wednesday. During a federal court hearing, prosecutor Hagan Scotten said the FBI’s inability to get into Adams’ phone is a “significant wild card,” according to a report from the New York Post. The FBI issued a search warrant for Adams’ devices in November 2023. Adams initially handed over two phones but didn’t have his personal device on him. The indictment does not mention what type of...

Image: Tesla Tesla is no longer selling the sub-$40,000 rear-wheel drive Standard Range version of the Model 3 that has been in the company’s lineup since 2023. The most affordable trim is now the Model 3 RWD Long Range that starts at $42,490. The change was first pointed out by Electrek and comes as Tesla announces a year-over-year increase of vehicle deliveries in its third quarter of 2024. Tesla has slashed — and raised — prices numerous times over the past few years as it struggles to retain its pole position in the market. But an increasing number of customers have strayed to other vehicle brands, leaving Elon Musk’s company grappling with year-over-year sales decreases. Tesla also occasionally discontinues certain trims, often without notice... Continue reading…

Image: Nintendo The Nintendo Museum opened today in the company’s hometown of Kyoto, and it is already limiting some gift shop items to one per person in an attempt to discourage visitors from flipping exclusive merch online. The two-story museum highlights the company’s history dating back to 1889, when Nintendo started making hanafuda playing cards. It also features interactive exhibits letting visitors play Nintendo games in unusual ways, including using oversized NES controllers and Wii Remotes that need two people to operate. What’s generated even more buzz than the museum’s exhibits are the exclusive items available in the museum’s gift shop. Some of the items, which were available during preview events at the museum, have already shown up on... Continue reading…

Over the years, we've heard several rumors about a portless or buttonless iPhone. However, with the iPhone 15 Pro, Apple ditched the mute switch for an Action Button, and now, with the iPhone 16, the company has added a new Camera Control. Not only is the company increasing the number of buttons it offers, but it also seems this is its new design language, stepping away from the minimalistic approach offered by Apple's former design chief, Jony Ives. So where does that leave the rumored buttonless iPhone? Here's what we know. Did Apple scrap buttonless iPhones for good? For the past two years, rumors about Apple ditching physical power and volume buttons have surfaced online. However, Apple has moved away from capacitive buttons. Only the new Camera Control feature combines a button with haptic feedback. Still, if leakers and analysts have been so sure that capacitive buttons would come to the iPhone for the past two years, Apple must have at least been testing them, right? When iOS 18 was released, BGR noted that Apple even added a new tweak when pressing buttons, which mixes your physical press with an animation on the screen. This led us to believe that an iPhone with solid-state buttons was on the horizon. However, with the iPhone 16 release, all the buttons were the same.

In July, analyst Jeff Pu said it was unlikely that the upcoming iPhones would feature solid-state buttons due to "unresolved technical issues before mass production." With that in mind, we still have to wait to see if the company plans to start working on this technology again or if it has been scrapped for good. There's a sketchy rumor that Apple plans to revamp the Action Button and Volume Buttons for the iPhone 17 Pro. A few days ago, we also learned that Apple planned various changes for the iPhone buttons that didn’t pan out during the prototyping stages. Apple reportedly wanted a larger Action Button that would combine the capabilities of Camera Control (Project Atlas) and a unified Volume button (Project Bongo). While Apple had to kill those plans, they could always resurface with another release on the horizon. Wrap up Adding solid-state buttons would help fulfill Apple’s dream of a buttonless and, eventually, portless iPhone. Without physical buttons, there would be fewer chances the iPhone would break, and it would also improve water and dust resistance. With the new Camera Control technology, Apple could revamp iPhone buttons with Camera Control-like capabilities in future versions. Still, only time will tell.

Archaeological evidence suggests that there was a human settlement in the area as early as 5000 BC. Considering the region’s fertile soils and the abundance of nearby water sources, this would make sense. The location would have been a prime candidate for early agricultural communities.
