Samsung is restocking the Galaxy Z TriFold in the US again.

If you want a shot at buying the expansive, expensive, and discontinued foldable, it’s going on sale on Samsung’s website at 10AM ET on Friday morning. It will also be available at seven Samsung Experience retail stores, according to Phone Arena.

A February restock sold out in minutes, so this new one will probably clear out quickly, too.

If you buy something from a Verge link, Vox Media may earn a commission. See our ethics statement.

Ubuntu’s minimum RAM requirements will get a more realistic bump to at least 6GB.

As OMG Ubuntu points out, the new minimum is in place beginning with version 26.04, scheduled for release on April 23rd. You’ll still be able to install Ubuntu on systems with less RAM, if you can stomach it, but a lighter Linux distro might be a better pick, like Linux Mint or Lubuntu.

Tubi just announced that it has launched its own app inside ChatGPT:

Users can add Tubi’s app from ChatGPT app store and type “@Tubi” anytime to describe what they’re in the mood for, whether that’s “a movie that feels like a fever dream but isn’t horror” or “a thriller for tonight.” They’ll then receive curated, interactive results that they can watch on Tubi.

Yuga Labs, the creator of the now-depreciated line of NFTs, settled its lawsuit against artists Ryder Ripps and Jeremy Cahen, who were accused of launching a copycat RR/BAYC NFT collection, as reported by CoinDesk.

Canva is acquiring an AI “agent management” platform and a “marketing automation” company.

As Canva expands beyond its roots as a design platform, the company says the acquisitions of Simtheory and Ortto will help Canva “become the system where teams do all of their work from start to finish.”

You can now freely download Keychron keyboard and mouse design files.

Keychron published the 3D design files for some of its keyboards and mice on GitHub, including the popular Q and V series boards. They’re not for commercial use, but Keychron’s efforts allow users to make their own mods, custom cases, or take their tinkering to new sicko-level heights. Pretty cool!
