These Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs for short) are often singular flashes, but a few of them have been observed repeating at seemingly random intervals.

November is going to be a milestone month in the ongoing Streaming Wars, as consumers gradually move away from traditional cable and pay-TV packages in favor of Internet-delivered streaming offerings from Netflix and the like.

Apple’s announcement today of two key details that everyone was waiting on, relative to its forthcoming Apple TV+ service — the price and launch date ($4.99/month and Nov. 1, respectively) — solidifies its entrance into the ongoing scramble by tech and media companies for a piece of the big streaming pie.

We’re most likely still about a month out from the launch of Google’s next flagship smartphone, but leaks have been springing up at a furious pace in recent days. Just last week, we wrote about the first Pixel 4 hands-on video, and in the process of publishing the post, we had to issue an update to include a second video that had begun making the rounds while we were writing. Ever since then, the floodgates haven’t closed.

The latest leak comes from the appropriately-named Gadget Leaks channels on YouTube, which purports to show off the Pixel 4 in a new orange color. This same color option has appeared in leaks and reports before, including a photo posted on Chinese social media site Weibo earlier this week, which you can see here.

It always seems like the buildup to Apple’s annual iPhone event lasts forever, and that’s because details surrounding Apple’s next-generation iPhone models leak so far in advance. In fact, we’ve already seen the first round of iPhone 12 details leak from well-known Apple insiders. But the focus on Tuesday isn’t on what Apple has in store for us next year, it’s on this year’s new iPhone models along with all the other products and services Apple covered during today’s huge press conference.

All eyes were on Apple as company executives took the stage to unveil the new iPhone 11, iPhone 11 Pro, and iPhone 11 Pro Max. While it’s true that tons of details leaked long before today’s big announcements, Apple still managed to keep a few things under wraps to surprise us on Tuesday. There were also several big announcements that had nothing to do with iPhones during today’s action-packed press conference, so there’s a lot to catch up on if you missed it. Lucky for you, we’ve rounded up all of Apple’s biggest announcements right here so you can see everything you need to know in one place.
