Apple's 35th annual Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) is June 10 to 14. WWDC is typically a software-centric event, so it's highly likely we'll get our first look at iOS 18, iPadOS 18, tvOS 18, macOS 15 and watchOS 11. It may also be a good chance for Apple to upgrade its visionOS software for Vision Pro.

There may be hardware too. Last year's WWDC included a detailed presentation on the Vision Pro and the 15-inch M2 MacBook Air. This year? Another Vision Pro? A Mac Mini? Place your bets.

Community tips will be accessible in the same way as Game Help: click the PS button, launch the Control Center and find an Action Card labeled Hints Inside. Any card with gamer videos will have a Community Game Help label and players will be able to rate tips' usefulness.

Microsoft is bringing together its Windows experiences and devices teams into one division. Pavan Davuluri, who's been head of the Surface team since last year, will now also lead Windows experiences after Mikhail Parakhin's departure. Perhaps interestingly, Parakhin vacated his role a week after Microsoft hired DeepMind co-founder Mustafa Suleyman, who apparently asked Parakhin to report to him directly.

This camera captures 156.3 trillion frames per secondSuper super super super slow mo.b283e470-ec24-11ee-bf67-16b743a58e5bEngadget

Scientists have created a scientific camera that shoots images at an encoding rate of 156.3 terahertz (THz) to individual pixels - equivalent to 156.3 trillion frames per second. Dubbed SCARF (swept-coded aperture real-time femtophotography), the research-grade camera could lead to breakthroughs in fields studying micro-events impossible to capture on existing scientific imaging equipment. SCARF could open new frontiers in areas as diverse as shock wave mechanics or the development of more effective medicine.
