This is fucking FIRE research. Insanely slept on research. I am FLABBERGASTED.

RIP Adobe Animate

Adobe will be discontinuing Adobe Animate on March 1, 2026. However, you can still continue to use it as an existing user but technical support will no longer be available after March 1, 2027.

Also, the access to your Animate files and project data will end on March 1, 2027.
So please export your Animate FLA and XFL files to other formats such as SWF, SVG, and MP4 files before this date.

If you don't know, Adobe Animate was used to animate famous cartoons like Teen Titans Go!, Smiling Friends, My Little Pony, El Tigre and many more.

Firefox 148, scheduled for release on February 24, introduces the earlier promised option to disable the AI stuff in the app. For that, there is now the browser.preferences.aiControls parameter in about:config. This setting enables a dedicated interface section where users can disable all artificial intelligence functionalities at once or manage them individually. Available features for selective control include language translation, text recognition in images and scanned PDF documents, tab grouping recommendations and labels, link preview summaries, and chatbot interfaces. Each function supports three states: enabled, disabled, or blocked. Blocking a feature removes locally stored AI models and conceals related interface elements.

Nightly builds destined for Firefox 149, expected on March 24, activate Split View mode by default. This mode displays two tabs simultaneously within one window. Users access it via a context menu option after enabling the browser.tabs.splitView.enabled parameter in earlier versions. The interface permits resizing both panes by dragging the divider, with the active tab highlighted by a red border.

Additionally, nightly builds make the standalone search box show the tips  you using see in the address bar when start typing.

Finally, testing has started for the Tab Notes feature, which allows users to attach custom text notes directly to individual browser tabs.

NVIDIA claims the January Windows update KB5074109 is the likely cause of significant gaming performance issues on systems with NVIDIA graphics hardware. Users report frame rate reductions of up to 20 frames per second and various graphical anomalies. NVIDIA confirmed that the problems do not stem from its graphics drivers and that uninstalling the update is a workaround. The company continues to investigate the matter actively.

Affected users may uninstall KB5074109 through the Windows Update page in Settings and temporarily pause further updates until Microsoft releases a permanent fix.

The January updates caused troubles for both Microsoft and its users. The Redmond firm continues addressing a bunch of issues, including the shutdown bug, Remote Desktop interruption, and unbootable devices. At the same time, Microsoft is working on reducing the AI push and rebuilding user trust in Windows 🤣

Leaked images of future Pixel A Series models after seeing Pixel 10a bezels

You first look at Trump Phone T1

Verge executives spoke to Don Hendrickson and Eric Thomas, two of the three executives that run Trump Mobile, giving us our first ever look at the Trump Mobile T1.

It is not a final production model, but apparently it’s a close prototype. The final model will not have the 'T1' logo but the American flag at the bottom will remain, as will the signature gold finish.

Talking about the specs, it is expected to be powered by Snapdragon 7 Gen series and will include 50MP selfie & triple rear camera including Telephoto lens, 512GB storage, 5000mAh battery & 1TB MicroSD card support.

Trump Mobile executive -- Thomas claims that it will be comparable to “any phone that’s over $1,000.” People who paid a $100 deposit already will still pay $499 total, but they’re now calling that an “introductory price.” Later buyers will pay more, though “less than $1,000”

According to Verge, the T1 Phone won’t be made in the USA. Instead, the handsets go through “final assembly” in Miami, though Thomas is careful not to say too much about what that means. The two executives promise that a Trump Mobile “relaunch” is coming, and that within “the next couple of weeks” the website will be updated with images of the final phone, along with its spec sheet
