Such fabrics, the team suggests, could be used in garments that help train singers or athletes to better control their breathing, or that help patients recovering from disease or surgery to recover their breathing patterns.

How to customize gesture controls on AirPods
One of the best parts of owning AirPods is the nearly phone-free experience you can have while using them. Once I put my 'Pods in and start my music, I can just tap on the physical earbud to skip to the next song, or take an AirPod out to pause it. But what if you find yourself going back to a previous song more than skipping forward? Or you want to tap to pause rather than taking an earbud fully out? Well, luckily for you, you can customize the gestures on AirPods, and we've got a guide on exac...

Though I’ve dabbled with macOS and iOS here and there, I’m partial to Windows and Android. I like choices, and I like flexibility.
