The most satisfying 3D printer upgrades rarely look impressive in photos. They don’t always involve a new hotend, a dramatic speed boost, or a shiny accessory bolted to the frame. In my experience, the upgrades that actually make the printer better are usually the ones that disappear into the background. They make the machine easier to live with, more predictable, and less needy during the parts of the hobby that aren’t fun to babysit.

Nearly a year after it was announced, Instagram says it's delivering the ability to rearrange the posts in your profile grid. It had been available to some people in test groups, but as of June 8th, it's rolling out widely via the Android and iPhone mobile apps. Until now, the posts on your Instagram profile have been locked in chronological order beyond the ability to pin three posts at the top, but once the feature is live on your account, you can long-press and drag posts freely, no matter how old they are. Any posts that are pinned will remain at the top. View this post on Instagram Instagram boss Adam Mosseri a …Read the full story at The Verge.

Ask to Browse is one of the new features coming to Screen Time. | Screenshot The Verge Apple spending a big chunk of its WWDC keynote on parental controls was surprising for several reasons. But the biggest is that, despite all the airtime, it didn't announce much new beyond a redesigned interface. Almost all the features touted already exist or are upgrades to current options. Why Apple chose to do this isn't a mystery. You can trace the threads from the recent landmark social media trials against Meta and Google to the protesters outside the Cupertino HQ today: Apple is trying to show the world it's being responsible when it comes to your children.Only it's really not. Screen Time sucks. As a mother of two whose children h …Read the full story at The Verge.

Discovering a new game on Steam, only to find out that it was on a steep discount just a few days prior, always stings.

Some app icons have a little more glass, but it gives them more identity. iOS 27 has only been out for a few hours, and I've been messing around with the developer beta on my iPhone 16 Pro. I was most interested in trying out the new Siri AI, but unfortunately, I'm still on Apple's waitlist for that. In the meantime, I've been poking around a bunch of features that aren't about AI and found a lot that I'm happy with - even though this doesn't seem to be as big of an update as previous years, the fit and finish throughout the operating system is already great to see.Here are a few neat things that have jumped out at me.The Liquid Glass opacity slider should have been there from the startI've always thought th …Read the full story at The Verge.

OpenAI on Monday checked off a preliminary step in the IPO race that it and rival Anthropic have been competing in for the better part of a year: The company announced it has confidentially submitted a Form S-1 with the US Securities and Exchange Commission, following Anthropic's decision to do the same on June 1st. The confidential filing means that certain details normally available through the form - such as executive compensation figures, potential risks to a company's business, and more financials - aren't yet public. As of Anthropic's most recent fundraise, it's being called the world's most valuable startup, with a post-money valu …Read the full story at The Verge.

Raspberry Pi 5 arrived in 2023, almost three years ago, and brought some interesting changes. The founders recently hinted at the release date of the upcoming version in a Reddit interaction. The company doesn't have plans to release the Raspberry Pi 6 until early 2028. It continues the tradition of a longer wait cycle and is the first good thing to hear about since the unpredictable price surge of Raspberry Pi boards.

You'd think that as someone who grew up having to remember passwords for everything from email accounts to banking apps and online games, I'd be fully on board with the idea of a passwordless future. I still remember getting all excited when Apple announced passkeys alongside iOS 16 at WWDC 2022. If there was any company that could pull something like this off, it was Apple. A year later, Google doubled down on passkeys, and that's when it seemed like the industry was coming together to ditch passwords for good.

Apple is trying to solve one of Safari's biggest weaknesses with AI. Safari has long lacked the robust library of extensions that its rivals have, mainly due to the stringent development requirements from Apple. But now, Apple is inviting users to essentially vibe-code their own extensions.In a demo shared by Apple, the company showed how you can ask Safari to create an extension by describing it. "Save and track cooking recipes from around the web," the prompt said. "Click the toolbar button to see your saved recipes and add notes to each." From there, Safari used Apple Intelligence to generate a "Recipe Keeper" extension that's supposed …Read the full story at The Verge.

For a new tvOS, we really need a new Apple TV. | Photo by Chris Welch / The Verge Every year, Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference gives us a first look at what's coming next to the company's many operating systems. But missing from today's keynote, apart from a single graphic listing all current Apple OSes next to a big "27," was any mention of tvOS.The whole structure of this year's WWDC was different, with features delineating the presentation structure instead of sections for each OS update. But there were still major mentions for macOS 27, iOS 27, and iPadOS 27. They're getting Siri AI, customizable transparency options for Liquid Glass, and some new child safety features. Even visionOS was included with new Sir …Read the full story at The Verge.

When Apple put child safety front and center at WWDC on Monday, its stated goal was helping parents fine-tune their kids' online experiences and avoid excessive screen time. But amid a global debate over internet regulation, its latest updates also looked like a defensive move in a brewing fight against Meta and other app developers.Apple announced an expanded toolkit for parents through its child accounts at WWDC, including a greater ability to customize kids' allotted screen time and the ability to block gory or violent images in messages before kids see them. Raja Bose, Apple's director of trust, safety, and values product marketing, to …Read the full story at The Verge.
