đ¸ This is space-cial: The James Webb Space Telescope picked up traces of dimethyl sulfide and dimethyl disulfide 124 light-years away, gases that, on Earth, only come from microorganisms like phytoplankton. The catch? It could also be from some chemical process we just donât understand yet. Cue the X-Files theme.
You think keeping a secret in todayâs world is tough? Try running one of the most important elections on the planet while dodging drones, AI surveillance and a smartphone in every pocket.
When Pope Francis passed away, the Vatican went into immediate lockdown mode to protect the conclave, the centuries-old process where cardinals vote to elect the next pope. Let me tell you, the security isnât just tight. Itâs basically a Tom Clancy novel on espresso.
Just last year, I had an IT pro on my team with over 20 years of experience. Smart guy. Talented. But when it came to AI, he dug in his heels. âItâs a fad,â he told me. âIn two years, people will go back to Google and search the web. They wonât trust AI.â

Thatâs how long a new male birth control shot has been working. âADAMâ is a water-based gel that blocks sperm, but everything else still works just fine. The kicker? Theyâve only tested it on two guys, and while they say itâs reversible ⌠thereâs no proof yet. But look how far weâve come.
The exact age scientists say bad habits really start wrecking your health. A study tracked hundreds of kids born in 1959 to 61 years old. Those who smoked, boozed and skipped workouts ended up sicker and more depressed. Great news if youâre 35, youâve got 12 months left to be an absolute disaster on purpose.
PC shipments jumped 6.7% last quarter as people rushed to replace old Windows 10 laptops before support ends and tariffs yeet prices into the stratosphere. Brands like Lenovo, HP and Dell are trying to move inventory fast, before things get messy.
What Lenovo laptops got for repairability, according to PIRGâs annual report, considered an F rating. The catch? They only submitted one model, so they were slapped with a failing grade for not providing enough data. Other brands sent in nine or 10 models. I guess they didnât read the terms and conditions.
