Spotify’s rumored remix feature could completely change how we listen to music

[ad_1]

Spotify is reportedly working on adding remixing tools to its streaming service, giving users a way to reimagine their favorite tracks. 

The news comes from The Wall Street Journal (WSJ) whose sources state people will be able to “speed up, mash-up, and otherwise edit songs” however they want. The article explains that one of the purported additions is a playback feature for controlling how fast or how slow a track plays. When you’re finished with a remix, you can then share it with other Spotify users, but not to third-party platforms or social media. There are licensing agreements in place that will prevent people from sharing their creations.

Samsung drops another big hint that Galaxy AI features are coming to Galaxy S22 phones

[ad_1]

In the immediate aftermath of the Galaxy S24 launch, Samsung all but confirmed to us that Galaxy AI features wouldn’t be coming to the Galaxy S22 series due to hardware limitations.

Now, Samsung has given us even more reason to believe that the Galaxy S22 series will get Galaxy AI features in the not-too-distant future. 

In a press release detailing the expansion of supported languages in Galaxy AI, Samsung says the following: “The newly supported Galaxy AI languages and dialects will each be available for download as a language pack from the Settings app across all devices that support Galaxy AI. That includes the Galaxy S24 series, Galaxy S23 series, Galaxy S23 FE, Galaxy Z Flip 5, and Galaxy Tab S9 series, with more coming soon.”

Windows 11 or bust: Microsoft is boldly and insistently urging Windows 10 users to move on, or get left behind

[ad_1]

Windows 10 might be Microsoft’s most popular operating system, but that’s not going to stop Microsoft from trying to get people to leave the operating system (OS) and upgrade to its successor Windows 11, and its latest attempt appears to be full-screen ads for Windows 11 being displayed to Windows 10 users. 

Microsoft has pinpointed October 14, 2025 as the date when Windows 10 is set to be depreciated. It’s quickly approaching, and after this date, Microsoft will cease providing technical support like bug fixes, and releasing feature updates and crucial security updates for Windows 10. That means that Windows 10 will continue to be functional, but PCs continuing to run on it will be at risk of newly discovered vulnerabilities that can be exploited by bad actors when they’re connected to the internet. 

Windows Central claims, citing Reddit posts in the Windows subreddit (the dedicated Reddit forum for Windows), that some Windows 10 users are seeing intrusive warning screens that advise them to make sure they’re able to get continued support and developments from Microsoft by installing Windows 11

OnePlus Pad display
The OnePlus Pad 2 could be months away, but it might be a very powerful upgrade

[ad_1]

It’s been over a year since the February 2023 announcement of the OnePlus Pad, so it feels like the OnePlus Pad 2 is due. But we haven’t heard much about it yet, and the latest leak suggests that we’ll still be waiting at least a few months.

This comes from leaker Max Jambor, posting on X (via GSMArena), who claims that the OnePlus Pad 2 will launch in the second half of the year. So the earliest we’ll see it in that case is around three months from now, but it might not launch for up to around eight months.
