Overall Findings An HTML email contains images, colors, and other text formatting. A plain text email contains only text without any formatting. The important difference is the lack of formatting and rendering in the text. Some email services like Gmail appear to be plain text but are HTML emails. These services use basic HTML formatting to make the emails easier to read (some call these hybrid emails). Email Rendering: HTML Is Prettier, but Rendering Can Vary When you create a plain text email, you open the Compose window and start typing....

Why You Can’t Normally Use iMessage on Android You usually can’t use iMessage on Android because Apple uses a special end-to-end encryption system in iMessage that secures the messages from the device they’re sent on, through Apple’s servers, to the device receiving them. Because the messages are encrypted, the iMessage network is only usable by devices that know how to decrypt the messages. Apple keeps iMessage and all its cool effects and features, including iMessage apps, exclusive to devices running iOS and macOS as a way to drive people to buy its products....

Researchers have created a soft and stretchable device that converts movement into electricity and can work in wet environments. The invention holds promise for powering wearable devices, charging them spontaneously with no need for an external power source. It’s part of a growing effort to find new ways to power personal electronics. “The predominant batteries for personal electronics are lithium-ion batteries, which have been the best rechargeable batteries for about thirty years,” Bingqing Wei, the director of the Center for Fuel Cells and Batteries at the University of Delaware, told Lifewire in an email interview....

One such method is encrypted messaging. Facebook parent company Meta is betting on the concept, as they just announced that they are testing automatic end-to-end encryption in Messenger chats. What does this mean? End-to-end encryption (E2EE) makes it so not even Facebook can read Messenger chat messages; only the participants are allowed access. This makes it extremely difficult, though not impossible, for outside entities like law enforcement agencies or hackers to take a quick peek at our private chats....

Software developers love web apps, because they can write one application, and it can run on any computer. That’s because they essentially run inside a custom web-browser. Users, on the other hand, hate them, because they never look or feel right, they are often slow, and they are bloated by design. Mac users especially prefer apps designed to use all the built-in features of the computer. “I think OS-native benefits are less important on Windows,” software developer and tech CTO Martin Algesten told Lifewire via Twitter....
