It seems the ongoing management changes at Samsung will delay the market arrival of its ambitious super-slim smartphone. The Galaxy S25 Edge was expected to launch mid-way through April, but those plans have seemingly been pushed back by a few weeks.According to a report from Koreas ET News, the company has pushed the launch event to some point between May and June. It has been confirmed that this information was also conveyed to the three mobile carriers that sell the Galaxy S25 Edge, says the outlet. Recommended VideosAn insider quoted in the story notes that due to the launch delay, the device may take even longer to go on sale.The report clears that there isnt any quality issue with the device that has led to the postponement of the launch.Alexis Garza / YouTubeIn related news, earlier this month, Google delayed the market arrival of its budget-centric Pixel 9a smartphone due to component performance issues. As per DigiTimes, the company had to rework nearly half a million units to fix the undisclosed issues.RelatedArmed with a titanium build, the Galaxy S25 Edge is expected to offer Qualcomms top-of-the-line Snapdragon 8 Elite SoC. The phone, which is said to be just 5.8mm in thickness, is expected to feature a 6.7-inch OLED display, while the lights are kept on by a fittingly small 3,786 mAh battery.Alexis Garza / YouTubeLeaks suggest that the Galaxy S25 Edge will deploy a larger vapor chamber cooling system compared to the baseline Galaxy S25. Despite its svelte chassis, the phone could surprise buyers with a massive 200-megapixel main camera, sitting alongside a 12-megapixel camera for ultrawide capture.As far as the pricing goes, the latest report from Samsungs home market mentions an asking price of approximately KRW 1.5 million, which translates to roughly $1,020. Broadly, Samsung is exploring a sticker price that puts it somewhere between the Galaxy S25 Plus and the top-end Ultra trim.Editors Recommendations

I turned right at Barry's Boot Camp and arrived at my destination: Arc, a communal sauna and cold plunge studio in London's financial district, which markets itself as a place for people to connect.You can start your week there with a guided contrast therapy class that is, switching between extreme heat and cold at 7:30 a.m. on Monday morning, and see it out with a sauna party on Saturday night, complete with DJs, aromatherapy, and of course, cold plunges.While saunas and ice baths aren't new (they're known to help athletes recover faster and are a must in any bougie gym or spa), they're quickly becoming a staple of social wellness: the blending together of socializing with wellness activities, such as running clubs and longevity retreats.The merging of these trends makes sense. The global wellness industry was valued at $6.3 trillion in 2023, up 25% since 2019, and after being starved of social connection during the COVID-19 pandemic, people are becoming more aware of the link between socializing and longevity.Social saunas are popping up everywhere. Rebase, another self-proclaimed "social wellness" club, opened in London last May, while Othership, a Toronto-based "social sauna" and ice bath studio, launched its first US spa in July with more than 20 locations across North America expected to follow in the next five years. Bathhouse, a New York-based spa with two locations, just added four additional pools and two saunas to its Williamsburg branch.Arc opened in London's Canary Wharf inDopamine Reset, a guided contrast therapy session that promises to "reset the brain's reward system," "break old habits," and "unlock new levels of growth and peak experiences" a tall order for a 50-minute class.I wanted to try it for two reasons. Firstly, as a woman in my twenties I naturally spend too much time on the internet and have anxiety. So, I'm always keen to experiment with something that might snap me out of my thought spirals. But secondly, and most importantly, I wanted to see if meeting new people while exposing myself to extreme temperatures, almost nude, would be as awkward as it sounds, or actually provide an opportunity for bonding. Breaking the ice, if you will.So I took the plunge and booked the 35 ($44) class.I felt uncomfortable walking into the classThe Lounge was an amphitheater-shaped communal area. Francesca Jones for BI Excited and nervous, I left the chic changing room in my swimsuit and entered a dimly lit ampitheatre-cum-cave called The Lounge: a terracotta room big enough for 50 people, with a tiered conversation pit at its center. I sat near three young women, all wearing smartwatches that were most certainly tracking their biometrics. So far, so awkward and lonely.Of the 12 out of a possible 40 of us in the 12:30 p.m. class, there was only one man, who was taking a break from training for Hyrox, a buzzy, intensive indoor fitness competition.(You'll notice that there are no people in the photos accompanying this piece the sauna understandably didn't want us to take pics of guests in their swimsuits, or disrupt their journeys of self-discovery).After a few minutes, our teacher or "sauna master" in Arc lingo appeared mic'd up and wearing a one-piece swimsuit and a long sarong to explain the structure of the class.We would be led through breathwork, meditation, and gentle stretches parasympathetic nervous system, which helps the body relax starts to happen after the 30-second mark, she said.We spread out along the benches of the sauna built to accommodate 65 peopleThe sauna master at Arc threw an ice ball infused with essential oils over the coals in the sauna. Francesca Jones for BI The 65-person wooden sauna was wide and tall enough for the twelve of us to spread out along its three benches. Our teacher started the class by throwing a snowball filled with essential oils onto the coals at the center of the room and whipping a towel in a circular motion in the air to spread the floral aromas. The room was heated to a near-uncomfortable 200 degrees Fahrenheit, and I started sweating almost immediately.Breathing exercises in extreme heat weren't relaxingKim Schewitz in the 65-person sauna. Francesca Jones for BI As we started the breathwork which involved rounds of inhaling, holding our breath, and exhaling for four seconds each I loosened up a bit, mainly because we were encouraged to close our eyes. I'm used to breathing exercises like this in my weekly yoga classes and know my way around the Headspace app , but holding my breath in the extreme heat was strenuous and frankly unpleasant.I didn't feel particularly relaxed yet and hadn't shared so much as a smile with anyone. This all changed when we moved on to the next section of the class.I shared my ice bath with a fellow classmateThe ice baths were a maximum of 42 degrees Fahrenheit. Francesca Jones for BI After a quick post-sauna rinse in the shower room adjacent to the sauna, where I slathered myself with complementary Malin+Goetz shower gel, it was time to get chilly.In a charcoal-colored room made entirely out of stone were eight ice baths. It had a harsh feel compared to the light natural materials of the sauna and the lounge.Each bath was large enough for two people, and I partnered with Carli Wheatley, 42, who I later found out is a lymphatic massage therapist and has worked in the wellness industry for years a theme among my classmates.I felt apprehensive as we assumed our positions and at the count of three, all stepped inside the icy vats and sat down. The pain hit my feet, legs, and hands immediately, and I had to fight the urge to get out. But lo and behold, after about 30 seconds, my muscles started to relax, and I felt calmer. Wheatley and I intermittently shared exasperated looks, which reassured me.A gong signaled that two minutes were up, and we stepped out. My legs felt numb, and it was as if currents of electricity were zapping me. I felt awake from the inside out: an awakeness I had never felt before. Like an espresso entering your bloodstream, but without the mania.After the ice bath, I started to feel more comfortable and chatted with the people around meMost people hadn't come to socialize but were up for chatting. Francesca Jones for BI Re-entering the sauna, the atmosphere had softened. Everyone's body language was more open, and we started chatting about our shared experience (trauma). The intensity of the ice bath served as a welcome social buffer.I asked people why they decided to come and if they enjoyed it. Those I spoke to (I wasn't able to chat with everyone in the class) were either into health and wellness or worked in the industry. They had come for the sauna's physical and mental benefits, not to socialize, but I do wonder if this would've been different had I come to an evening event.Renata Bianchi, a 38-year-old hypnotherapist from Brazil, said that she found Arc online, thought the facilities looked beautiful, and wanted to try it. She told me she'd like to come back again next week.One woman, who wants to train as a sauna master and is a fan of the cult health-optimization podcast, the "Huberman Lab," told us that she had been to Arc about seven times in the three months since it opened. She grew up using saunas and loves the high she gets from contrast therapy."I've heard it's good for metabolism and brown fat, but that's not why I do it," she said.I went for a second dip, with friends!The sound of the gong signaled that two minutes in the ice bath was up. Francesca Jones for BI Although no one had come for the social aspect, they were all up for chatting, and a group of us decided to give the ice baths a second go. We exhaled loudly and giggled to get through round two. It reminded me a little of summer camp.We popped into the sauna again to warm up, shared some last-minute reflections on the state of the world, and gradually dispersed.As I made my way back to the changing area, I realized that I hadn't thought about anything outside of these three rooms for at least 20 minutes. That was a huge win, which told me I had been in the moment and felt calm.

Tesla owner Ben Baker told BI that he supports people's right to protest but damaging personal property crosses the line. Ben Baker 2025-04-02T08:23:01Z SaveSaved Read in app This story is available exclusively to Business Insider subscribers. Become an Insider and start reading now.Have an account? Ben Baker returned his Cybertruck due to concerns about his daughter getting bullied.Baker's Tesla Model Y was keyed after the election and he told BI he was called a Nazi after getting the Cybertruck.He said while he believes protesting is a right, damaging property crosses the line.This as-told-to essay is based on a conversation with Ben Baker, a Tesla owner living in Sacramento, California. Business Insider has verified his identity and former Cybertruck ownership. This story has been edited for length and clarity.I have been a big tech guy as far as I can remember.In my youth, I liked space,SpaceX, and I liked all this stuff that Elon Musk was doing and he seemed like a Democrat at the time. So, I was like, "Ok, this guy is awesome. He's doing all this cool stuff."I was a Democrat my whole life but it wasn't too far back that I started to see the country getting more and more divided. It just felt like there was a huge push to run to as far left as people could go and that was a real shock to me being a Democrat. So I decided to switch to being an independent.Somebody keyed my Tesla Model Y not too long ago after the election and I was like, "OK, that's no big deal." I live in California, which is a Democratic state, and so I kind of figured that there would be some of that stuff. Someone keyed my Tesla Model Y after the election. Ben Baker I didn't think it would be that big of a deal until I went and bought a Cybertruck.My daughter asked me to return my CybertruckThe first week I drove the Cybertruck, I took my family to Starbucks in it.While my family went in, I took some cool pictures of it and was thinking, "This is super awesome." I wasn't buying it for other people. I was buying the Cybertruck for me because I wanted to drive the future. Ben Baker As I was doing that, three people walked behind me and started looking at me and laughing. Then one of them called me a Nazi.I go, "What are you talking about? I'm just buying this awesome truck. I think it's awesome. I'm not a Nazi." They were like, "Whatever, Nazi." I thought was weird.Later on, one of my daughters told me that if I kept the Cybertruck, she was going to get bullied. She said, "Dad, under no circumstances keep this." My son, who leans right, said I should be able to drive the car I want and not have to worry about what people say.But then I started thinking about if one of them is driving the Tesla Cybertruck down the road and people get out of the car and start vandalizing it in front of her or when she's driving it. My daughter is young, she's just had her license maybe a year. That's terrifying to me.I'm a father and I have to do the right thing by my kids, which is to protect them. Maybe if I had all the money in the world to own the Cybertruck myself and then send them to school with another vehicle, then great, it would be on me if it got damaged.But I can't have that happen to them in that vehicle. And who knows how far these guys will take it. They could harm my kids physically and I couldn't live with myself if that happened. To me, it just wasn't worth seeing my daughter live in fear of the vehicle getting vandalized at their school.I ended up taking it back and Tesla was really cool about it. I was able to unwind everything.This doesn't feel like freedom to meI feel like protesting has always been the American way.I think people should have the right to protest but they should have the right to protest without destruction. That's where the lines have been crossed.Nothing that's happening right now is logical at all. It's all emotionally driven and ideologically cultivated. My kids are afraid of taking this nice vehicle that's fast, awesome, and cool and saves on gas. It's probably great for the environment.It's a lot of money to invest in a vehicle and to buy one of these Cybertrucks, and I grew up from nothing. My mom was a single mother on government assistance so I had to work super hard to get where I'm at.What's worse is that I'm a huge fan of this technology. I really want a Cybertruck. I think they're freaking awesome. They're really fun to drive. They're roomy and spacious. I wasn't buying it for other people. I already own a Tesla which I absolutely love, but I was buying the Cybertruck for me because I wanted to drive the future.I thought this was the land of the free, but this doesn't sound like freedom at all to me.When you start going down a pathway of saying, "This is what we think you should believe, and if you don't believe this, then we're going to come at you and we're going to take away what you've earned." That sounds like something else and it doesn't sound good.I don't think that hate and division are the way forward for this country or the world. As long as we keep doing that and trying to put people into boxes and categorize them and label them, that's just going to create more division and hate and it's super unfair.We have got to find a way forward together that brings back basic human decency but also common sense so that we cheer for American companies to grow and thrive and help our pensions, versus cheering for the fall of an American company.Recommended video

Architecture Tailored for the Deaf and Hard-of-Hearing Community: Gallaudet Universitys DeafSpace PrinciplesSave this picture!Alfreton Park Community Special School by Curl la Tourelle Head Architecture. Image Kilian OSullivanGallaudet University was established in 1864, becoming the first American educational institution for the deaf and hard of hearing. The university is officially bilingual, with American Sign Language (ASL) and written English used throughout the educational programs. Over the years, the university has grown, adapting both its teaching methods and its spaces to the needs of its students, in turn learning from them how to counter the challenges they face and create a safer and more comfortable environment. These lessons turned into design guidelines, created to educate the architectural community about the strategies they can employ to create more accessible spaces for all.The university's campus was designed in 1866 by Frederick Law Olmsted, famous for his design of York City's Central Park. The campus spanning 99 acres in Washington D.C. is now recognized as a part of a National Historic District, and it includes 2.5 million square feet of academic, residential, and support buildings. Through careful planning and adaptation, this space reflects the principles of accessibility and inclusivity.Save this picture!In 2005, architect Hansel Bauman of HBHM Architects began a collaboration with the ASL and Deaf Studies Programs to create the DeafSpace Project (DSP). This partnership resulted in the development of the DeafSpace Guidelines, a design guide with recommendations for over 150 architectural elements and their contribution to creating a better-built environment for the deaf and signing community. These guidelines address five key areas that are important to be taken into consideration by architects and designers working with these communities. Related Article The Curb Cut Effect: How Accessible Architecture is Benefiting Everybody Space and ProximitySave this picture!Through cultural norms, every community outlines its standards for proximity, defining the comfortable distances between individuals engaged in conversation. The Deaf Community has its particular set of distance requirements informed by their communication needs. In order to initiate a conversation, eye contact is required, while ample space is needed around the arms in order to sign comfortably, a concept known as "signing space." When gathering in larger groups, deaf people tend to form circles that allow all individuals to communicate with each other. These communication methods often require more generously dimensioned spaces to accommodate all types of interactions.Save this picture!Save this picture!In contrast with hearing individuals for whom physical enclosures offer a sense of security, deaf individuals tend to feel more secure in open spaces that offer visual control. For this, interior spaces need transparent walls, large openings, and sliding panels between communal areas, with varied heights for clear sightlines. Major pathways can include "eddies" for more private conversations, while fixed and flexible seating arrangements promote interaction. Spaces should also be fitted with pedestals and shelves that offer places to set belongings while using sign language, thus facilitating unobstructed visual communication. For deaf individuals, seating arrangements must ensure proper sightlines for legible communication, with round or horseshoe-shaped tables preferred. Classrooms are also recommended to use a horseshoe seating arrangement for visual access.Sensory ReachSave this picture!Sensory Reach refers to the interconnected systems of perception (hearing, seeing, smelling, feeling) that individuals use to understand and orient themselves in space. For deaf individuals, extending Sensory Reach involves utilizing visual, vibratory, tactile, and social cues to achieve comprehensive spatial awareness. In designing spaces for the Deaf, various strategies can enhance these multi-sensory communication systems.Visual systems are typically used to replace auditory alarms or notification systems. In one example, doorbells activate a light fixture inside the private space to contact the room occupant. Clock alarms include shaking devices that introduce vibrations, while alarm systems use a combination of visual strobes and shaking devices to ensure that all occupants are alerted. Vibration zones can also be included in the design, understood as limited areas where certain floor surfaces are used to propagate vibrations. In public spaces, these provide a subtle clue of approaching people as a means to mitigate abrupt interruptions.Mobility and ProximitySave this picture!One of the main goals of the DeafSpace systems is to create safe conditions and freedom of movement for the signing community, minimizing hazards and enabling easy circulation flows. Wider sidewalks, pathways, and corridors are essential to accommodate groups of people signing while walking. Sudden angled or abrupt transitions are to be avoided. Additionally, ramps are preferable to stairs as they support a smoother flow of movement and reduce the risk of tripping hazards. Stairs, when necessary, should be configured to aid communication and ease of use, ensuring that movement remains fluid and uninterrupted.Save this picture!Thresholds and intersections, such as building entrances, exits, and crosswalks, need to be designed to maintain seamless circulation and continuous signed conversation. The use of vertical cues, like building arcades and rhythmic architectural elements, helps individuals orient themselves and anticipate changes in their path through peripheral vision. These elements enhance navigation and conversation flow, reinforcing the importance of designing buildings and landscapes with sensitivity to how Deaf individuals perceive and move within their environment.Light and ColorSave this picture!Deaf and hard-of-hearing people rely heavily on visual communication methods, such as sign language, lip-reading, and facial expressions. Poor lighting conditions, glare, and shadow patterns can interrupt these communication types, contributing to eye fatigue and a loss of concentration. Throughout the university campus, specific architectural elements such as sun louvers are used to control daylight to diffuse direct sunlight. This extends to the exterior paths, which are often shaded to provide a glare-free environment. A similar example is the Silk Tree Deaf Friendly Urban Park in Iran by Ashrafi & Zad, where shaded circular spaces are provided to allow for comfortable conversations for people of all hearing levels.Save this picture!In addition to natural light, artificial light is employed to provide comfortable illumination levels. Presentation spaces are designed with flexible lighting systems for a variety of presentation types, with dimming lights separated from the light cones necessary for the presenters and interpreters. For night-time, public spaces are fitted with pools of light which create spaces for gathering within larger spaces. In most spaces, it is recommended to position light sources so that they wash surfaces with light to avoid hotspots and shadows, as opposed to positioning light sources centrally in the space.Save this picture!Color can also be used strategically, with soft hues of blue and green being employed as backgrounds. This creates contrast with every skin tone, highlighting sign language and creating a calming atmosphere. When used in a controlled manner, high-contrast colors improve visibility and navigation. The texture of surfaces also plays an important role in reducing surface glare. Highly reflective or specular surfaces such as stainless steel or polished stone should be avoided, opting instead for matte or rough textures. To improve visibility in certain spaces, mirrors can also be employed strategically to allow people more visual control of their surroundings.AcousticsSave this picture!The matter of acoustics might seem like a less critical aspect of spaces designed for the deaf and hard of hearing, but people have a range of hearing abilities, with many of them using hearing aids, cochlear implants, or other assistive listening devices. These devices amplify all sounds, thus increasing the background noise to often uncomfortable, even painful levels. Proper acoustics minimize unnecessary noise and reverberations, making it easier for these devices to function properly. Considering the acoustic properties of spaces also allows vibrational cues such as alarms or footsteps to be perceived more easily, while also minimizing distractions and providing better conditions for sign language interpreters.Improving the acoustic properties of spaces involves various strategies that address sound absorption, insulation, and diffusion. Installing acoustic panels on walls and ceilings absorbs sound, reducing echo and reverberation. Soft furnishings like carpets, rugs, and curtains also contribute to sound absorption. Sound insulation techniques, such as using double-glazed windows, insulated walls, and solid-core doors, help prevent noise transmission, while the incorporation of varied surfaces and sound diffusers scatters sound waves, minimizing echoes.Save this picture!By better understanding, the needs of deaf and hard-of-hearing people, architects and designers can create spaces that respond to a wider range of abilities: wider pathways, smooth transitions, multi-sensory cues, acoustic comfort, visual connections, and color and textures strategically employed to facilitate orientation, all of these strategies can improve the experience without hindering architectural expression. As proven by the curb-cut effect, improving accessibility and inclusivity for one category can drastically increase the quality of spaces for all in a positive ripple effect that results in more functional, enjoyable, and universally accessible environments.This feature is part of an ArchDaily series titled AD Narratives, where we share the story behind a selected project, diving into its particularities.

Hey folks! If youve ever tried to learn rigging in Blender and ended up rage-quitting halfway through youre not alone. Ive been teaching rigging for years, and I kept seeing beginners struggle with the same stuff. I am sick of answering the same questions, so I decided to make a full beginner-to-intermediate rigging course and release it 100% free on YouTube. It's called "Rigging Isn't Scary", and I just released Level 1 a quick set of 5 short lessons that cover all the essential rigging basics (including armature basics, Inverse Kinematics, Weight painting, animation basics, etc.). For the easiest way to get access to all released videos, just check out the YT playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLdcL5aF8ZcJsSWrFwmLsQvCIKisuyyMnU Its recorded in Blender 4.x, so its completely up-to-date Super beginner-friendly but goes into a lot of depth if you stick with it No paid upsell, no BS, just real tutorials Level 2 is already underway, and Im releasing new videos dailyso if you want to learn rigging without losing your mind, nows a great time to hop in. Let me know if you have questions or feedbackhappy to help out where I can. Hope you find it useful! submitted by /u/toshicg [link] [comments]
