Apple’s macOS 27 update introduces remote AppleCare log collection, a feature that allows IT teams to trigger log gathering and upload directly to Apple via device management commands. The process involves issuing a token, sending a TriggerEnhancedLogCollection command, and monitoring status through declarative management. Interactive mode on macOS requires user consent, while iOS and tvOS offer non‑interactive options for kiosk or shared devices. This streamlines support for remote or traveling users, reducing troubleshooting delays and improving visibility [...]

Deepinder Goyal, founder of Eternal, is preparing to launch Temple, a head‑mounted wearable that tracks cerebral blood flow using photoplethysmography (PPG) and BrainFlow technology. The device will cost roughly Rs 72,000 and pre‑orders are expected to open soon, with early‑access members prioritized. Shipments could begin before the end of 2026, and the first edition will be available in six colours. Temple is not an EEG device; it measures blood‑volume changes near the temple and has been validated against [...]

A Starfield modder, Frederik Wessberg, has released a “Seamless Landings” mod that allows ships to descend from space onto planetary surfaces without loading screens. The mod, still in progress, works with manual or autopilot flight and supports landings on water, featuring realistic 3D cloud layers, weather, auroras, and atmospheric scattering based on actual data.

Meta has immediately banned TikTok advertisements on its platforms in the United States, Canada, Egypt, Indonesia, Japan, Thailand, and Vietnam, extending the restriction to third‑party advertisers linking to TikTok and other ByteDance properties in those markets. The decision heightens the ongoing rivalry between Meta and ByteDance, as TikTok has become a major competitor for user engagement, creator content, and advertising revenue. Meta’s move follows its recent settlement with U.S. states over teen safety, and it coincides with [...]

The article argues that true robotic dexterity hinges on reliability across entire workflows, not just isolated tasks. It explains how a 99% success rate per action yields only a 36.6% chance of completing a 100‑step sequence, while 99.9% raises that to 90.5%. The piece stresses that recovery, sensing, and closed‑loop control are essential, and that repeated deployment and learning are required to achieve the “four nines” reliability needed for autonomous work.
