First announced by Apple at its WWDC22 event in June, the new order tracking feature automatically adds supported Apple Pay orders to the Wallet app, making them instantly trackable. It’s the first time Apple has built such functionality into its software, and it could mean many people no longer need to use third-party apps from the App Store if retailer adoption is strong enough. “Order tracking in the Wallet app is one of the most underrated iOS 16 features,” MacRumors senior news reporter Joe Rossignol told Lifewire via direct message....

Nikon has one of the best pedigrees in photography, but it lags in mirrorless cameras, the latest big thing in cameras for pros and enthusiasts. These cameras are smaller and lighter than big DSLRs, while adding one significant feature that DSLRs can never match. But Nikon has let the competition run ahead. Is the Z9 enough to catch up? The answer is a resounding “maybe.” “For their target market, I don’t think it’s too late,” Ken Bennett, a staff photographer at Wake Forest University, told Lifewire via forum post....

One of the fun aspects of Lords of Waterdeep is how it plays out differently each game. There is no one perfect strategy because each game you have a different mentor and are focused on different types of quests. This means you have to devise your strategy after the game starts. And this only gets more intriguing if you are playing with the expansions. Here are some tips for getting the better of your opponents....

Message and Attachment Size Limits in Gmail Gmail processes messages up to 25 MB in size. This limit is applied to the sum of the message’s text and the encoded attachment. Encoding makes the file size slightly larger, so if you have a file that is exactly 25 MB, it will not go through. Sending messages larger than 25 MB from Gmail yields an error. Messages sent to your Gmail account that exceed the limit bounce back to the sender....

The mobile version of Office combines Office, Excel, and PowerPoint into one slick package, and Microsoft has thrown in some extra features that are very useful for those on the go. Best of all, the single app needs less space than if you were to download the three individual apps, although these are still available if you prefer. Using the new all-in-one Office made me weep for all the time I’ve wasted messing around with the previous stand-alone versions of these apps....

Ol’ Diggy’s story has been noted as, “In mines and lonely caverns deep, you sometimes hear the sound: The tunk-tunk-tunk- of Diggy’s pick still prying at the ground. But light a torch and no one’s there, just shadows on the wall - No glimpse of Diggy’s greedy shade, still searching for his haul.” The Sea-Swallowed Captain’s story was released stating, “Upon the black and wicked sea, The Captain did once sail, until it called her to its depths with lightning, wind, and hail....

Instead of a bunch of heads yapping in front of last night’s dirty dishes and struggling to find their meeting notes, Mmhmm can turn video calls into actual presentations, like the ones you see on John Oliver or the evening news. Imagine your kids’ remote school with Mmhmm, and you start to see the potential. “The idea is to kill PowerPoint,” Mmhmm founder Phil Libin told Lifewire via—what else?—Zoom chat....

Motorola has mostly been known for its budget phones in recent years, with the annual Moto G line continually delivering serious bang for the buck, plus the company has expanded with an array of niche Motorola One mid-range variants. We haven’t seen Moto do much on the flagship front after its Moto Z line with snap-on “Moto Mod” accessories went out with a whisper, but 2020’s Motorola Edge+ is a proper return to top-end smartphones....

The Nakamichi Shockwafe Pro 7.1 Sound Bar Set is simultaneously a great system and a terrible system. It’s a phenomenal system that offers a movie-like experience to films and gives the user plenty of useful customization options, making it one of the better sound bar sets on the market. However, its unique design doesn’t work for everyone, making it a terrible system for games and music at its price point when compared to a traditional 5....

The latest major Windows 11 update addresses these issues by bringing in a raft of changes to cater to the new hybrid work era. The security community is cautious in its praise, complimenting Microsoft for ensuring Windows protections evolve with the growing threat landscape while wondering if the company was too late to react. “This is great [but] honestly, this level of protection should have been enabled long ago,” Matthew Fulmer, Manager of Cyber Intelligence Engineering at Deep Instinct, told Lifewire over email....

A one-to-many relationship in a database is the most common relational database design and is at the heart of good design. Example of a One-to-Many Relationship Consider the relationship between a teacher and the courses they teach. A teacher can teach multiple classes, but the course would not have the same relationship with the teacher. Therefore, for each record in a Teachers table, there could be many records in the Courses table....
