At first glance, the AirPods Max 2 don't seem like much of an upgrade from their predecessor. But after I went hands-on with them, I grew more impressed with the changes, though I still have a few gripes.
The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), a branch of Iran's armed forces, has threatened to target US tech companies' operations in the Middle East. It told employees of 18 companies — including Apple, Google, Meta and NVIDIA — "to leave their workplaces immediately to save their lives," as CBS News reported. Those living close to the companies' facilities in the region were instructed to evacuate immediately as well. Microsoft, Oracle, Tesla, HP, Intel, Palantir, Boeing, Dell, Cisco and IBM are also among the companies that the IRGC named.
"Since the main element in designing and tracking terror targets are American [information and communications technology] and AI companies, in response to this terrorist operation, from now on the main institutions effective in terrorist operations will be our legitimate targets," the IRGC said in a statement. The military force warned it will start targeting the companies on Wednesday evening if more Iranian leaders are killed.
Iran previously pledged to attack companies and banks tied to the US and Israel, though the warning it issued on Tuesday had a specific deadline. Earlier this month, Iranian drones struck Amazon data
Basketball player Stephen Curry has long collaborated with Google, and last year took on the role of "Performance Advisor" at the company as part of a multi-year partnership. It appears the first product of this union is "coming soon," based on a video posted to Curry's Instagram account. The 15-second clip shows shots of Curry playing with a basketball, and a gray-and-orange band sits conspicuously on his left wrist. Interspersed are the words "A new relationship with your health coming soon," and the video ends on the Google logo.
We reached out to Google for comment and details, and the company said "Our Performance Advisor has been working with the team to cook up something special ??. More to share soon."
The updated version of Siri that Apple plans to release in iOS 27 may be able to handle multiple commands in a single query, reports Bloomberg. With the feature, users would be able to make multi-step requests that ?Siri? would carry out, such as getting directions to a location and then sending those directions to someone in a message.
SpaceX has lost contact with Starlink satellite 34343 after it suffered an unspecified anomaly on March 29 while it was in orbit, the company has announced on X. The event happened while the satellite was approximately 348 miles above our planet. Since that is a relatively low altitude, SpaceX's analysis showed that the remains of the satellite pose no risk to the International Space Station or the upcoming launch of the Artemis II mission. It also won't affect the company's Transporter-16 mission, which launched with small satellites from its clients on March 30.
In its statement, SpaceX also said that it will monitor any trackable debris, indicating that the satellite is no longer in one piece. LeoLabs, an American company tracking satellites in Low Earth Orbit, said it detected a "fragment creation event" involving Starlink 34343 on March 29. It also mentioned that this event is similar to another incident that happened on December 17, 2025. SpaceX had lost Starlink satellites to events like geomagnetic storms in the past, but it doesn't seem like these two recent incidents were caused by external factors. The company has yet to announce what led to the anomalies, but LeoLabs believes that both of them were "likely caused by an internal energetic source rather than a collision with space debris or another object."
I actually like it in the center position, because it's easier to orientate my searches without having to drag my mouse pointer all the way to the side of the screen. That said, not everyone feels the same way. It bugs some long-time users of Windows 10 who are used to the far left-hand side placement. But fret not, because you can change it back to the left in just a few clicks.
What to do:
Right click on the taskbar and select Taskbar settings.
Find the submenu "Taskbar behaviors" and click the dropdown arrow next to it.
Now next to "Taskbar alignment" change Center to Left. Close the window and watch your taskbar magically shift position.
