The RealReal, a secondhand luxury fashion consignment retailer, said it's updating its bot defense system, effectively making it harder for AI agents to shop on its site.

The change comes days after The Verge reported that an AI agent could be used to take advantage of The RealReal's item reserve system. On the retailer's website, an item goes "on hold" and is unavailable for other customers to buy for 20 minutes once it's placed in a user's shopping cart. Using Meta's Muse, The Verge was able to instruct the AI agent to continuously re-add The RealReal listings in a shopping cart as soon as the 20-minute hold had expired, effectively block …

Following reports of iPhone Duos with cracked and broken inside screens, often showing a bright line running from the center to the right side, Apple says in a statement to Bloomberg and 9to5Mac that it's aware of "an issue impacting the inner display" on a "small number of iPhone Duo units." If your iPhone Duo is affected, Apple says to contact AppleCare for a replacement.

Here is the full statement, which Apple's Alex Kirschner shared with The Verge:

The response to iPhone Duo from early users has been incredibly positive, and we are seeing exciting things from developers who are rapidly updating their apps to take advantage of its uniq …

If you want a decent pair of noise-canceling earbuds without spending a fortune, Nothing’s Ear 3A are worth considering. The wireless earbuds offer a lot of features for the price, and they’re an even better value now that all four colors are on sale at Amazon, Walmart, and Best Buy for $79 ($20 off), matching their all-time low price.

The Ear 3A deliver great performance for the price, with extensive EQ options that let you fine-tune the sound to your liking. My colleague John Higgins found the default sound a little too bass-heavy, but appreciated how easy it was to adjust — which is great, since that level of customization is unusual for earbuds at this price. While they won’t completely drown out chatter of your local coffee shop, the ANC does a good job of quieting low drones, including air conditioners and airplane cabin noise. We did encounter some bugs in testing, however, including abrupt changes in noise cancellation levels when using adaptive ANC, as well as occasional issues with voice calls in noisy environments.

Still, they’re relatively minor drawbacks given what you get for the price. The Ear 3A also come in some fun colors — including a striking pink shade — and each pair includes extra-small ear tips for a more comfortable fit. They even offer a shortcut to access ChatGPT and include 32MB of built-in storage, letting you record up to two hours of a phone call and transfer the recording through the companion app.
