With Android 14 QPR1, Google introduced a feature that lets you use a Pixel phone as a webcam with your PC. Years later, Android manufacturers have yet to widely adopt this handy feature. Samsung is finally stepping in by adding support for USB webcam mode to the Galaxy S26 series. There are plenty of third-party Android apps that enable you to use your phone as a webcam with your PC. Amidst the pandemic and taking a cue from iPhone’s Continuity Camera feature, Google added a similar option natively to Pixels with Android 14 QPR1 in late 2023. Unfortunately, even after…

Google is testing AI-generated review replies in Google Business Profile. Why we care. Responding to reviews can impact conversions and trust.

The American College of Sports Medicine has released a new guideline on strength training that gives more realistic advice than what you may have heard about strength training elsewhere. Aside from outlining the amount of training we need, the new guidelines also come with a few surprises, in the form of debunking many long-held “rules” of strength training. Among them: training to failure isn’t essential, and unstable surfaces aren’t necessary to improve your balance. I keep seeing fitness professionals celebrating these new ACSM guidelines as…
Sometimes you have to commit to doing something, regardless of whether you think it will work or not. If you don’t fail, you’ll never learn. If you don’t try, you’ll never start. This was the logic behind my very first design-to-print 3D printing project. This seems like an odd choice when you consider that I don’t have any Wi-Fi signal problems. Why I did this I’ve reached the stage of 3D printer ownership where I’m eager to start designing and printing my own projects. The only problem is that I’m coming from a background with very limited design experience. I…

The security defect, tracked as CVE-2026-33017 (CVSS score: 9.3), is a case of missing authentication combined with code injection that could result in remote code execution. “The POST /api/v1/build_public_tmp/{flow_id}/flow endpoint allows building public flows without requiring authentication,” according to Langflow’s advisory for the flaw. “When the optional data parameter is supplied, the endpoint uses attacker-controlled flow data (containing arbitrary Python code in node definitions) instead of the stored flow data from the…
