  • 7 things you should never share on the internet - beyond address and SSN
    October 26, 2025, 2:04 PM EDT. From your current or future location to the tiny clues in photos, many data points you post can be exploited by thieves or scammers. This piece flags seven non-obvious items to keep offline: your travel plans and whereabouts; details about your kids' activities or school/extracurriculars; visible house numbers, apartment numbers, or license plates in images; GPS/location metadata embedded in photos; and any post that hints at when you'll be away. Practical tips: schedule posts after you've returned home, scrub EXIF/location data, blur identifying details, and enable home security measures when posting publicly. In short, treat every online post as public until you verify your privacy settings and reduce exposure to phishing or identity theft.
  • iPhone 18 rumored to standardize 12GB RAM across all models
    October 26, 2025, 2:02 PM EDT. The rumor suggests the iPhone 18 will standardize memory by boosting RAM to 12GB across all four models, aligning with the Pro lineup. The leak, attributed to The Bell and picked up by MacRumors, reportedly asks Samsung to increase RAM-module supply for the 2026 production cycle, a roughly 50% jump. More RAM would help advance on-device AI features and overall performance, especially in future software updates. Previously, RAM varied between base and Pro models, so a uniform 12GB could redefine pricing and how Apple differentiates the lineup. Early chatter also hints at satellite connectivity and camera upgrades for the Pro variants.
  • Pixel 10 Series Could Get Significant Performance Boost Through GPU Driver Update
    October 26, 2025, 2:00 PM EDT. Some Pixel 10 owners report underwhelming graphics and battery life. Google has confirmed forthcoming driver updates that could unlock the device's full potential. Imagination Technologies released GPU driver version 25.2, adding Android 16 support and Vulkan 1.4 compatibility, a move that could boost the Pixel 10's performance. The handset uses a PowerVR DXT-48-1536 GPU, and early benchmarks show weaker graphics compared with peers. The issue traces to an aging driver shipped as 24.3. While Google hasn't promised specific versions or gains, the company has a track record of delivering GPU improvements in regular updates, suggesting Pixel 10 users may see meaningful boosts in upcoming patches.

  • Could a $10,000 Bet on Rigetti Computing Make You a Millionaire?
    October 26, 2025, 1:54 PM EDT. Investors eyeing Rigetti Computing as a potential millionaire-maker stock point to its position in quantum computing. A hypothetical $10,000 investment a year ago would have grown massively, underscoring the sector's explosive growth potential. The article notes Rigetti as a pure-play in a nascent market with early leadership advantages: 18 quantum systems deployed, 112 issued patents and 140 pending, and the world's first dedicated quantum IC foundry. Its flagship Cepheus-1-36Q QPU halves the error rate versus prior versions, with a plan for a 100+ qubit system by late 2025. While quantum tech could reshape AI training, drug discovery, climate modeling and materials science, investors should weigh execution risk and market timing.
