  • Google Photos adds Nano Banana AI image editing to Android and iOS
    November 12, 2025, 10:40 AM EST. Google is finally rolling out its Nano Banana image-editing AI to Google Photos, powering new edits in both Android and iOS apps. The model underpins features in Help Me Edit, replacing the older engine. Nano Banana can interpret simple instructions like 'remove sunglasses' or more fantastical style changes, delivering faster, more natural edits. A notable upgrade is access to private face groups, letting you reference people by name in your edits (for example, 'Remove Riley's sunglasses'). The rollout marks a shift toward conversational editing inside the Photos app, expanding cross-platform capabilities and reducing manual tweaks for everyday photo fixes.
  • Energy Transfer Stock Poised for AI Data-Center Growth: Is Now the Time to Buy?
    November 12, 2025, 10:36 AM EST. Energy Transfer is an income-based play with an ~8% forward yield and a growing pipeline of growth projects. The MLP has inked gas-supply agreements for AI data centers, including Oracle's three facilities at 900 Mcf/d and Fermi's 300 Mcf/d for Project Matador. The Desert Southwest pipeline is fully subscribed, and the Hugh Brinson Pipeline targets phase 1 online by end-2026, with potential expansion as data centers drive demand. Management is also weighing conversion of some NGL lines to gas. Guidance calls for about $4.6B of capex this year and ~$5B next year, with a mid-teens return outlook. The Lake Charles LNG stake was trimmed to 20%, redirecting focus to other opportunities. In short, a tech-infrastructure play connecting AI growth to energy-infrastructure fundamentals.
  • EU weighs binding ban on Huawei and ZTE across Europe, linking security to funding
    November 12, 2025, 10:34 AM EST. The European Commission is reportedly exploring ways to compel EU member states to remove Huawei and ZTE from their networks, turning the 2020 non-binding guidance on 'high-risk vendors' into a binding requirement. Citing Bloomberg, the plan could force compliance with Brussels' security stance and even withhold Global Gateway funding from non-EU projects that use Huawei gear. Vice President Henna Virkkunen leads the effort; former Commissioner Thierry Breton earlier pressed to name Huawei and ZTE as security risks. National governments resist surrendering telecom decisions to Brussels, creating divisions: Germany and Finland weigh tighter restrictions, while Spain and Greece keep Huawei in play. Critics warn the move could raise costs and delay rollouts, even as Brussels cites espionage risks amid strained EU-Beijing ties. Sweden has banned Huawei.
  • The Steam Controller Do-Over: Rumors, Deckard, and Valve's Hardware Reset
    November 12, 2025, 10:32 AM EST. Valve's decade-old Steam Controller could get a do-over as rumors swirl about a redesigned pad and new input tech. While the original failed, insiders hint that Valve is nearing a release alongside other hardware chatter, including a possible Deckard VR headset and a Steam Frame concept. Leaker Brad Lynch has shared renders and AI-generated mockups suggesting a controller with recessed two trackpads, no full finger tracking, and a CapSense-style distance sensor to gauge how far hands sit from the grips. If true, the device might blend VR comfort with desktop gameplay, echoing Valve's push from the Steam Deck OLED to next-gen peripherals. Valve's hardware play could redefine input for gaming again.
  • Valve's Next-Gen Steam Controller Leaks: Dual Trackpads, Steam Deck-Inspired Design
    November 12, 2025, 10:26 AM EST. Valve is reportedly prepping a second Steam Controller, teased by credible leaker Brad Lynch with an AI-generated mockup. The design borrows heavily from the Steam Deck, featuring dual trackpads alongside the usual sticks, D-pad, shoulder buttons, ABXY, and two square trackpads to ease cursor control-potentially making strategy games like Stronghold Crusader: Definitive Edition playable without a mouse. The device reportedly uses a capsense distance sensor on both grips (not full finger tracking), which could enable or disable motion tracking in VR. Aiming for a launch in the coming months, the controller may pair with Valve's Steam Frame headset, though a release date remains unconfirmed. The piece also notes a strong desktop-leaning handheld option, the ROG Ally X, as a point of comparison.
