Researchers have discovered a biological switch that explains why movement keeps bones strong. The protein senses physical activity and pushes bone marrow stem cells to build bone instead of storing fat, slowing age-related bone loss. By targeting this “exercise sensor,” scientists believe they could create drugs that mimic exercise at the molecular level. The approach could protect fragile bones in people who are unable to stay active.

Costco removes RAM from its display PCs to prevent tech-savvy shoplifters — GPUs also absent across stores as PC parts become a hot commodity

Thanks to the AI boom, RAM is worth its weight in gold — actually more if you count the price hikes it's received in the past few months — so even a large retailer like Costco is now guarding it. A customer at their local store spotted that Costco has removed RAM sticks from all PCs on display, with some removing GPUs as well. Read more

Tim Berners-Lee Wants Us To Take Back the Internet

mspohr shares a report: When Sir Tim Berners-Lee invented the world wide web in 1989, his vision was clear: it would used by everyone, filled with everything and, crucially, it would be free. Today, the British computer scientist's creation is regularly used by 5.5 billion people -- and bears little resemblance to the democratic force for humanity he intended. Since Berners-Lee's disappointment a decade ago, he's thrown everything at a... Read more

The fast-growing business of trading U.S. stocks as crypto tokens is enabling overseas investors to buy and sell shares of companies such as Tesla and Nvidia. The $1 billion industry relies on one little-known brokerage. Alpaca, a San Mateo, Calif.–based broker-dealer, maintains custody of nearly three-quarters of the market because few other brokers are willing to do the trades, which can open them to regulatory risks, such as potentially violating...

Scientists are warning that a little-known group of microbes called free-living amoebae may pose a growing global health threat. Found in soil and water, some species can survive extreme heat, chlorine, and even modern water systems—conditions that kill most germs. One infamous example, the “brain-eating amoeba,” can cause deadly infections after contaminated water enters the nose. Even more concerning, these amoebae can act as hiding places for dangerous bacteria and... Read more

New research suggests that auditory hallucinations in schizophrenia may come from a brain glitch that confuses inner thoughts for external voices. Normally, the brain predicts the sound of its own inner speech and tones down its response. But in people hearing voices, brain activity ramps up instead, as if the voice belongs to someone else. The discovery could help scientists develop early warning signs for psychosis. Read more

New research suggests that consistent aerobic exercise can help keep your brain biologically younger. Adults who exercised regularly for a year showed brains that appeared nearly a year younger than those who didn’t change their habits. The study focused on midlife, a critical window when prevention may offer long-term benefits. Even small shifts in brain age could add up over decades. Read more

Carbohydrates don’t just fuel the body—they may also influence how the brain ages. A large long-term study found that diets high in fast-acting carbs that rapidly raise blood sugar were linked to a higher risk of dementia. People who ate more low-glycemic foods like fruit, legumes, and whole grains had a noticeably lower risk of Alzheimer’s. The quality of carbs, not just the amount, appears to matter for brain health.
