iPadOS 26.2 Brings Back Drag-and-Drop Application Multitasking Functionality

iPadOS 26 is reintroducing window tiling and background processing, as Apple gradually reinstates some beneficial functionalities from earlier iPadOS iterations. With the release of iPadOS 26.1, the company has brought back Slide Over for the iPad, allowing you to showcase an app in front of all other applications. To access this feature, simply tap the three-button menu, long-press the green icon, and select Enter Slide Over. This functionality enables you to keep information such as a video, a reference AI chatbot app, the Notes app, and more, consistently visible while using different applications.

Now, with iPadOS 26.2 Beta 3, Apple is reinstating another vital multitasking capability — the option to drag and drop apps. Although quite handy, this feature was eliminated in iPadOS 26. Currently, if you’re experimenting with the Beta 3 of iPadOS 26.2, you can easily switch between applications by dragging them from the Dock, Spotlight Search, or App Library and placing them on the home screen.

The Anticipated Length of Earth’s Oxygen-Abundant Atmosphere

oxygen concentrations are expected to drop significantly lower in the future. Indeed, a recent study indicates that Earth will exhaust its breathable air in approximately 1 billion years.

Researchers Kazumi Ozaki from Toho University and Christopher Reinhard from the Georgia Institute of Technology developed a computer model to project the future of Earth and its atmosphere. By conducting nearly 400,000 simulation runs, they compiled their findings and published them in the journal Nature Geoscience in 2021. The findings suggest that the oxygen-rich atmosphere of Earth will disappear in one billion years. The silver lining is that none of us currently living will experience that transition; however, many scientists now contend that the loss of atmospheric oxygen will signal the definitive end of life on Earth, so let’s delve into the factors contributing to this decline and envision what the planet will resemble in its aftermath.

that’s the nearest it will approach (it is not a menace like dark comets are). Its closest pass by the sun occurred on October 30, and it is expected to remerge on the opposite side of the sun in early December 2025. Although determining an exact size is challenging, NASA approximates it to be between 1,444 feet and 3.5 miles in diameter.

Roku Unveils Significant TV Upgrade: Essential Modifications Clarified

states this update features “enhancements in performance, bug resolutions, as well as advancements to security, stability, and user experience.” It will be deployed automatically to select devices, including Roku streaming players and certain TV models, while also being “widely accessible” to additional devices by mid-November.

These recent features and usability upgrades align with Roku’s earlier updates, such as one that introduced new functionalities last summer. The technical enhancements aimed at performance stand out among the notable features introduced in this update. Through code enhancements and streamlined system processes, Roku devices are expected to operate more swiftly, exhibit greater responsiveness, and be less susceptible to freezes or crashes. Enhanced accessibility options are being introduced as well, including new voice commands for adjusting volume or launching channels, for instance.

Lastly, the updated Roku OS 15 has refined HDR10+ and Dolby Vision passthrough for compatible televisions, enabling these signals to pass directly from the source without any processing or modifications. While this will automatically roll out when ready, you can manually check for updates on your Roku TV or streaming device by navigating to Home > Settings > System > Software Update > Check Now. This action will initiate a manual scan for updates, and if one is detected, it will download, install, and restart your device.

How to Uncover Apple’s Concealed Holiday Easter Egg in the Store App

prepared for the festive season. In addition to refreshing its brick-and-mortar locations with seasonal décor, the company has also recently revamped the Apple Store app, introducing a new icon and support for Liquid Glass.

That being said, despite the company’s introduction of a completely new experience with the Apple Store app, a holiday Easter egg remains included. If you’re in the market for the M5 MacBook Pro, the latest iPhone 17 or iPhone Air models, various accessories, or Apple’s AirPods Pro 3, you can enjoy a Christmas-themed atmosphere within your app.

To discover the holiday Easter egg in the Apple Store app, users simply need to type “Let it Snow” into the search bar to observe the snow cascading down as they explore the Apple Store app. It is worth mentioning that this feature is not accessible via the browser, and users must have the iPhone app.

Apple Looking into iPhone Pro Case with Touch Controls

on the social media platform Weibo indicates that Apple might have some captivating strategies planned for upcoming iPhone cases. Per the post, Apple is investigating iPhone cases that, aside from safeguarding iPhones, could function as a “second touch interface.” The leaker specifies that these cases will probably be tailored solely for iPhone Pro models as part of a bid to enhance the Pro model to be “even more Pro.”

The post lacks extensive details, but MacRumors directs us to an Apple patent for a similar device that was initially submitted in July of 2024. The mentioned patent outlines an iPhone case that could utilize both capacitive and pressure-sensitive touch sensors. Nevertheless, it remains uncertain how significantly such a case would actually enhance the user experience.

For illustration, picture an iPhone case with a capacitive sensor that might be activated to turn on the iPhone flashlight function. It’s fascinating, but is it any faster or more convenient than turning on the flashlight directly from the iOS home screen?

HBO Max Offers Underrated 2010 Werewolf Film for a Fresh Opportunity

recently climbed the Netflix streaming rankings.

There are, of course, favorable critiques for “The Wolfman” as well. Some have “adored it” and believe the narrative was “skillfully crafted” and “thrilling.” Hopkins and Benicio del Toro are highlights, and while it was disappointing to see Emily Blunt with limited screen time, she shines when she does appear. The film fluctuates between suspense, action, and traditional horror, and despite its established reputation, it remains praised as a fairly true adaptation of the original 1941 movie. Rick Baker, the makeup artist, even made efforts to keep the werewolves in the 2010 film as true to the original designs as possible. Perhaps that explains their resemblance to the Grinch?
