Meta’s decision to remove its third-party fact-checking system and loosen content moderation policies has sparked a wave of users seeking to delete their Facebook, Instagram, and Threads accounts. As users become increasingly frustrated with the platforms’ algorithms and data collection practices, many are taking steps to reclaim their online presence. This article provides a step-by-step…
Researchers at Stanford University have made a groundbreaking discovery in the field of nanoelectronics. They have created very thin films of niobium phosphide, a non-crystalline topological semimetal, that conduct electricity better than copper, even in non-crystalline films. This breakthrough could aid the development of ultrathin low-resistivity wires for nanoelectronics applications, enabling the creation of smaller…
Researchers are making significant strides in using artificial intelligence (AI) to predict the evolution of viruses, such as SARS-CoV-2 and influenza. AI tools can now predict which single mutations in a virus will be most successful and which variants will ‘win’ out in the short term. However, predicting combinations of mutations or variants that will…
The cryptocurrency industry is witnessing a significant shift with the rise of cloud mining. Cloud mining platforms like DDB Miner are making it possible for individuals to participate in cryptocurrency mining without the need for expensive hardware or technical expertise. These platforms offer a user-friendly interface and high profit levels, making them an attractive option…
OpenAI CEO Sam Altman has been accused of sexual assault by his estranged younger sister, Annie, in a lawsuit filed in Missouri. The Altman family has responded, denying the allegations and expressing concern for Annie’s mental health. The lawsuit’s claims have sparked a heated debate about the tech industry’s handling of sensitive issues and the…
An international team of researchers has made a groundbreaking discovery in brain analysis, developing new techniques that consider interactions between three or more regions of the brain. This breakthrough could lead to a deeper understanding of human brain activity and potentially aid in the diagnosis and treatment of neurological disorders. The team’s approach combines topological…
NASA has delayed its decision on how to bring back rocks from Mars, pushing the final decision to next year. The mission, which aims to bring back 30 tubes of Martian rock, dust, and air, has been plagued by ballooning cost estimates and is now expected to launch in 2031, with samples arriving on Earth…
Elon Musk’s net worth has increased by $50 billion, and Dogecoin is expected to take off as a result. Cloud mining service providers are now offering Dogecoin cloud mining, allowing users to earn new coins by checking transactions on the Dogecoin blockchain. This article explores the process of Dogecoin cloud mining and the advantages of…
The European Union’s Copernicus Climate Change Service has released a report confirming that 2024 was the hottest year on record, with Earth’s average temperature exceeding 1.5 degrees Celsius above preindustrial levels. This milestone marks a significant increase in global temperatures, which have been rising since 1967. The report highlights multiple global records smashed in 2024,…
Physicists at Penn State and Columbia University have made a groundbreaking discovery, spotting the “smoking gun” signature of semi-Dirac fermions, a type of quasiparticle predicted by theorists 16 years ago. These quasiparticles exhibit a unique property, behaving like they have mass only when moving in a certain direction. The team used a crystal of the…
