YouTube creators are raising concerns about the platform’s AI-driven moderation system. Multiple accounts describe sudden channel terminations for “spam, deceptive practices and scams,” followed by rapid appeal rejections with templated responses. In some cases, channels have been restored only after the creator generated attention on X or Reddit. YouTube’s message to creators states the company has “not identified any widespread issues” with channel terminations and says only “a small percentage” of enforcement actions are reversed. There’s a gap between YouTube’s position and creator experiences that’s driving a debate. What Creators Are Reporting The pattern appearing across X and Reddit threads…

No-code app builder automation is the process of connecting your no-code app to other tools so it updates and runs smoothly without manual effort. For example, you can set up automations to update your app from a spreadsheet, create regular data backups, trigger actions on a schedule, or send notifications when something changes—keeping your custom app dynamic and up to date.Building a custom app used to be out of reach for most teams. In the old days, it required specialized programming knowledge and the budget to match a small country’s GDP. No-code app builders have changed that completely. Now, even…

If you’re tempted by a Lexus NX but keep wondering if there’s something roomier, cheaper, and still just as relaxing, the Toyota Crown Signia is the twist you probably didn’t see coming. It delivers an easygoing kind of luxury that feels more “effortlessly cool” than “trying too hard.” Toyota’s been nudging its way into premium territory for a while, but the Signia takes the biggest step yet. It looks sharp, rides smooth, and gives off a quietly upscale vibe without pretending to be anything it’s not. And this is where things get interesting: the Signia casually wanders into NX territory…

Oatmeal is my favorite cozy morning breakfast—topped with berries, sprinkled with chopped nuts, studded with chocolate chips, or doused in maple syrup. There are so many ways to make it and really no wrong answers. Since oatmeal is part of my regular breakfast rotation, I was very pleased to see that Costco sells a very large bag of Quaker Old Fashioned Rolled Oats at a ridiculously good price: Less than $10 for 10 pounds. Since I only use about a third of a cup of oats per bowl, which is roughly an ounce, that ten-pound bag gives me around 160…

We love a little nostalgia mixed in with our cozy gaming, and ReStory looks like a perfect blend of those two. In this upcoming indie game, you play the owner of a Tokyo electronics repair shop in the mid 2000s. The trailer that dropped today shows you tinkering with some very familiar gadgets from the era, such as renamed riffs on a Tamagotchi, a Nokia brick phone, a PSP and a Walkman. You clean and repair these devices for customers, and it looks like your conversations with them might have as much impact on their lives as your official work…

With crispy pork, a velvety sauce, and a punch of black pepper, spaghetti carbonara delivers soothing comfort and big flavor in under 30 minutes.

At dinner, this dish…

arXiv:2512.07652v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Traditional sea exploration faces significant challenges due to extreme conditions, limited visibility, and high costs, resulting in vast unexplored ocean regions. This paper presents an innovative AI-powered Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) system designed to overcome these limitations by automating underwater object detection, analysis, and reporting. The system integrates YOLOv12 Nano for real-time object detection, a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) (ResNet50) for feature extraction, Principal Component Analysis (PCA) for dimensionality reduction, and K-Means++ clustering for grouping marine objects based on visual characteristics. Furthermore, a Large Language Model (LLM) (GPT-4o Mini) is employed to generate structured reports…

CNET has tested tons of home security cameras over the years, and can help you find the right one for your needs.

After the backlash that greeted Coca-Cola’s AI-generated Christmas ad last month, you’d expect other corporate giants to be more cautious about releasing their own AI-infused efforts. But no. McDonald’s Netherlands decided it’d be a really good idea to use generative AI tools to knock together its own festive commercial. But folks didn’t respond well following its release on December 6. In fact, the criticism was so bad that the company has now pulled the commercial. The 45-second ad, which runs with the idea that Christmas is “the most terrible time of the year,” depicts various mishaps taking place during the…

This vibrant, spreadable Provençal sauce is rich and garlicky, with a bright, citrusy lift from fresh lemon juice and a touch of smoky paprika that adds depth. Best of all, it comes together in the blender in seconds. Beyond being the ideal topping for bouillabaisse, it’s prime for slathering on toast points to serve with all manner of soup. But don’t stop there. Spread it on an English muffin and top with a poached egg. Serve as a sauce with roasted potatoes or grilled asparagus. Brush it atop a meatloaf before giving it a final broil. Once you have rouille…
