Social media is fun for a lot of people, but it can be a nightmare when you’re a parent. Any form of social media like Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram is just a free ticket for any number of strangers to have contact with your children. This is why many parents restrict their children from having social media accounts altogether.

Look at where the heart rate complication is and how it shows up in the pill of the app list. Bummer. #teampixel #giftfromgoogle @GooglePixel_US pic.twitter.com/PtDPzYnnHI — M.

And while a majority of the console units were sold as pre-orders and the couple of months post-launch, Sony has done well in the last few months too. Earlier this year, Sony announced it had sold nearly 8 million consoles. That was back around the end of April. Which means since that time it’s sold a couple million more. No small accomplishment to be sure. And even more impressive when you factor in the semiconductor shortage that’s made it exceptionally hard for many consumers to buy a PS5....

That being said, not much has been shared about the specifics of the controller other than the design and some of the features. And although there aren’t specifics on features, Sony does highlight them. It’s also worth pointing out that since this is Sony’s pro-style controller, it’s likely to cost more. Sony’s original DualSense is $69. And that means there is a very good chance that the cost of the DualSense Edge will be well over $100....

Sony’s upcoming compact budget smartphone will be boxy As you can see, the Xperia Ace III will be quite boxy. The phone will be encased in a plastic shell, at least it seems like it. Its backplate will surely be plastic, and it seems like the sides are as well. The device will have a rather thin ‘chin’ at the bottom, and a dewdrop notch at the top. All of its physical buttons will sit on the right-hand side, with the power/lock button below the volume rocker keys....

For years, Google required Android developers to only offer its Play billing system in apps and take a cut from all transactions. The company didn’t allow developers to incle their own or any third-party payment services. Apple does the same with iOS apps. There has been strong opposition to this, including a few lawsuits.
