Snapchat has announced a pair of augmented reality glasses dubbed SPECS that can overlay “contextual AI assistance” over the world around you. The firm made a previous attempt at smart glasses in 2016, but they failed to take off with consumers and Snapchat took a £30m hit to its finances from the venture. Since then, a number of technologies have advanced that could give smart glasses more utility – particularly AI, which can provide far more context to surroundings that equivalent technologies could in 2016.  Snapchat is not the only social media firm taking on the augmented reality space, with Meta recently releasing models with Ray-Ban and Oakley that are equipped with cameras, microphones and AI capabilities. Unlike Meta’s devices, SPECS can operate entirely on their own and don’t need to be tethered to a smartphone. However, they come at a major cost premium, with a $2,195 (£1,636) starting price – far higher than Meta’s Ray-Bans, which start as low as £224. Evan Spiegel, CEO of Snap Inc, called the new device the “beginning of a new era in computing.”  “For decades, computers have asked us to look down, sit still, or step out of the moment,” he said. “SPECS

WhatsApp has started testing "view once" messages on iOS. As the name implies, these will be messages that you send and can only be viewed once by the recipient. After they viewed them once, the messages will disappear. To enable the functionality you will just need to long-tap on the Send button, which will then present you with the option to "Send as view once". Engage that and you're done. WhatsApp initially started testing this feature on Android earlier this month, and now the same is happening on iOS. The view once option is already available for photos, videos, and voice messages, but now WhatsApp is working on expanding it to text messages as well. With that, everything will be covered. View once text messages will work in both one-to-one chats and group chats. They won't however be available in channels. The new feature isn't currently available in a public beta, it's just being internally tested by WhatsApp developers. This new view once functionality is different from what was uncovered in May - that feature allows you to have a message 'expire' after a set amount of time. The one revealed today just lets people view a message once and

Published 1:49 pm Wednesday, June 17, 2026 A Kelowna documentary focusing on the experiences on the life experiences of unhoused people will be releasing for free. No Fixed Address: The White Cart Memorial will be releasing to the public on June 22. The documentary is a joint production between the BC Centre for Palliative Care and the Kelowna Homelessness Research Centre. The 45-minute documentary explores the connection between grief and homelessness. According to a Kelowna-based study by the filmmakers, 65 per cent of participants made the connection between grieving a death in their life to “the time they felt life ‘fell apart’ and they became homeless.” “While grief after loss is a universal human experience, not all grief is recognized or supported equally. People who are unhoused are often excluded from traditional systems of grief and bereavement care and may not be acknowledged as grievers at all. This lack of recognition can make it more difficult for individuals and communities to process loss, access support and heal,” the BC Centre for Palliative Care said in a release on the film. The co-directors and producers of the documentary, Joshua Black and Stephanie Laing, said they hope the documentary helps put a

The legendary late comic's set with the Riverside Symphony arrives on two tallies. Harpo Marx Frank Bez/Courtesy Thirty Tigers More than six decades after his passing, legendary comedian-musician Harpo Marx has a new entry on Billboard’s charts. Harpo Speaks!: The Riverside Symphony Concert featuring Peter and the Wolf by Riverside Symphony and Marx debuts at No. 6 on Billboard’s Traditional Classical Albums chart (dated June 20) and No. 25 on Classical Albums. Related The set, on Ramseur Records/Thirty Tigers, was recorded March 20, 1964, serving as a souvenir of a benefit concert held by the orchestra to raise funds for its Southern California nonprofit, featuring Marx narrating the children’s tale Peter and the Wolf . Marx was the so-called silent member of the Marx Brothers comedy team — brothers Chico, Harpo, Groucho, Gummo and Zeppo (with Zeppo eventually leaving) — and was known for his impeccable comedic timing on stage and screen. He taught himself to play the harp and trained under classical harpist Mildred Dilling. Notably, the performance on that date marked the first documented time in half a century that Marx spoke publicly. At the time, he had been in semi-retirement due to multiple heart attacks. Unfortunately, it

Judge George Wu of the US District Court for the Central District of California reaffirmed in an order entered into the docket Tuesday that the plaintiffs failed to sufficiently state a claim, adopting as final a tentative ruling from the prior week. They have leave to amend, but must provide sufficient information to make it plausible ...
