Seems like we've been on a northern lights roll lately, haven't we? There's one happening again tonight and the NOAA is even promising how the spectacular aurora display will be visible as far south as New York and Wisconsin. Forecasts say that a significant burst of solar activity colliding with Earth’s magnetic field will be creating the

Cybersecurity experts are sounding the alarm over a new Android Trojan dubbed Herodotus, which is designed to deliberately slow down its own malicious activity to mimic the casual, imperfect behavior of a human user. Such behavior allows the malware to slip past a generation of security systems built to flag more rapid, robotic actions of

A new study published in Nature by researchers from the University of Cambridge (with support by Meta) just dropped a pixelated bomb on the entire Ultra-HD market, essentially confirming what many of us may have suspected: the 'need' for 4K, let alone 8K resolution displays, is largely a myth for the average mainstream consumer. In this

Qualcomm quietly unveiled the Snapdragon 6s Gen 4, a chipset designed to inject some features once exclusive to flagship devices into more affordable handsets. Not just a minor refresh, the new 4nm processor is poised to be a huge boon for mobile gamers on a budget, with the company claiming a a 59% faster GPU and 144 frames per second support. The

The global fanfare for Samsung's most audacious mobile project yet, the (tentatively named) Galaxy Z TriFold, is reportedly set to bypass the U.S. market (not to mention most other parts of the world, too). Reports from reputable leakers suggest that the triple-folding device will be restricted to a small number of regions, such as South Korea

An international team of researches has announced the discovery of a super-Earth exoplanet (designated GJ 251 c) situated in its host star’s habitable zone less than 20 light-years from our own. What makes this detection exciting is that the planet's relatively short distance makes it one of the best targets bookmarked for future telescopic

So far, common shoemaker practice in helping runners go faster is to make footwear lighter without compromising rigidity and grip. Now, Nike has unveiled Project Amplify, the world’s first powered shoe system for running and walking, designed not necessarily for elite marathon runners, but for everyday athletes who just want to go a little

An interstellar visitor known as 3I/ATLAS, currently hurtling toward its closest approach to the Sun, has ignited a debate among astronomers (and enthusiasts) over its true nature: is it a natural black swan comet from another star system, or, as a Harvard scientist suggests, a potential piece of alien technology (or both)? The hubbub has

Most of you already know that the AI boom, for better or worse, puts a heavy strain on existing power grids. As companies race to build massive data centers to train the next generation of generative AI models, they’ve discovered that the local electricity supply often can't keep pace with the insatiable demand. The solution? Repurposing retired

In the high-stakes, multi-billion-dollar battle for global semiconductor one-upmanship, Tesla CEO Elon Musk has jumped in as a middle person by employing both of the world’s leading chip foundries—Samsung Foundry and TSMC (Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co.) to produce its critical, next-gen AI chip, the AI5. Elon Musk on Tesla's next-gen

In an industry rapidly accelerating toward an all-electric future, Porsche has just reminded us that the age of the internal combustion engine is far from over. How so? A newly-uncovered patent filing has revealed that engineers at Zuffenhausen have developed the design for a radical space-optimized W-arrangement engine featuring 18 cylinders
