Last year, the Nothing Phone (3a) was voted as having a better value than its (3a) Pro sibling, while people that might have bought the Pro were instead pulled towards the then-upcoming Nothing Phone (3) flagship. So, when we posted last week’s poll, we were sure that the (4a) would prevail over its Pro sibling. After all, the Nothing Phone (4a) closed the camera gap to the Pro. But look... Read more ›

A new study reveals that farming in Argentina’s Uspallata Valley was adopted by local hunter-gatherers rather than introduced by outside populations. Centuries later, a stressed group of maize-heavy farmers migrated into the region, facing climate instability, disease, and declining numbers. Despite these pressures, there’s no sign of violence—instead, families stayed connected across generations, using kinship networks to survive. The research shows how cooperation, not conflict, helped communities navigat Read more ›

You know the person I’m talking about. Every family has one. They’re the one who got the phone call at 2am when someone was in trouble. They organized the funeral arrangements. They managed the financial crisis, mediated the sibling conflict, held it together during the divorce, showed up when the diagnosis came in. They were ... Read more Read more ›

Ray moved to Phoenix in 2018. We’d been close since our thirties — he was an HVAC guy, we’d crossed paths on job sites for years, ended up in the same orbit, the kind of friendship that builds without you noticing it’s building. When he moved, I said we’d stay in touch. He said the ... Read more Read more ›

The first full week of sales of the Samsung Galaxy S26 series is now behind us. While we can’t expect to see price movement this quickly, there was the smallest twitch. The Galaxy S26 Ultra has not budged and we don’t expect it to anytime soon considering that it is by far the most popular of the three models. The Galaxy S26+ hasn’t moved either. Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra $200... Read more ›

A hidden freshwater system deep beneath the Great Salt Lake has been revealed using airborne electromagnetic surveys. Scientists found that freshwater extends much farther under the lake than expected, reaching depths of up to 4 kilometers. The discovery began with mysterious reed-covered mounds formed by pressurized groundwater pushing upward. Researchers are now investigating whether this underground water could help control hazardous dust from the drying lakebed. Read more ›

Most of us have had the experience of sharing something with someone and leaving the conversation feeling oddly deflated. Nothing obviously went wrong. They didn’t dismiss you or change the subject. They seemed engaged. They even told you about a time something similar happened to them. And yet somehow, by the end of it, you’d ... Read more Read more ›

Antibiotics are accumulating in a major Brazilian river, especially during the dry season when pollution becomes more concentrated. Scientists even detected a banned drug inside fish sold for food, raising concerns about human exposure. A common aquatic plant showed promise in removing these chemicals from water—but it also altered how fish absorb them, creating unexpected risks. Read more ›

For fifteen years, the story I told myself was simple: I was lazy. Undisciplined. Fundamentally lacking whatever internal machinery makes productive people spring out of bed at dawn and attack the day with purpose. My alarm would go off at 7am and I’d hit snooze four times. Sometimes five. I’d lie there with a weight ... Read more Read more ›

Wikipedia describes Freenet as "a peer-to-peer platform for censorship-resistant, anonymous communication," released in the year 2000.

While AI CEOs worry governments might nationalize AI, others are advocating for something similar. Canadian security professional Bruce Schneier and Harvard data scientist Nathan Sanders published this call to action in Canada's most widely-read newspaper (with a readership over 6 million): "Canada Needs Nationalized, Public AI." While there are Canadian AI companies, they remain for-profit enterprises, their interests not necessarily aligned with our collective good. The only real alternative is... Read more ›

There's a surprise in a new documentary about that Bigfoot film shot in 1967 by Roger Patterson, reports the Wall Street Journal. Capturing Bigfoot "builds to a big reveal: freshly surfaced film that appears to show a woodsy dress rehearsal for one of the world's most enduring hoaxes." In the new footage — from a Kodak reel dating to 1966 — Patterson's camera tracks a man in costume, his brother-in-law,... Read more ›

He's "the most famous anonymous man in the world," suggests Reuters. But investigating Banksy's artworks in a bombed Ukrainian village (and other clues in the U.K. and Manhattan) have led them to "a hand-written confession by the artist to a long-ago misdemeanor charge of disorderly conduct — a document that revealed, beyond dispute, Banksy's true identity." But Banksy's long-time lawyer "urged us not to publish this report, saying doing so... Read more ›
