Samsung doesn’t seem done experimenting with tri-fold phones just yet. A new patent suggests the company could be working on a different take, something that looks a bit more usable day to day. Samsung Galaxy Z TriFold The concept, referred to as the Galaxy Z TriFold Wide, leans toward a wider form factor. Closed, it would behave more like a regular phone, just slightly wider than usual. Unfold it, and it turns into a larger, tablet-like screen that’s better suited for video and multitasking compared to the first-generation TriFold. That alone makes it feel like a response to one of…
Imagine getting a knee replacement made of living materials rather than metal and plastic.Researchers at Columbia University and the University of Missouri are working to make that vision a reality. Their 3D-printed knee implant, called NOVAKnee, is composed of a biodegradable scaffold packed with stem-cell-derived bone and cartilage. The idea is that, once inside the body, the scaffold will gradually disappear as it’s replaced by new bone and cartilage that will integrate into the patient’s skeleton.Conventional knee implants last up to 20 years, and ideally, they’re installed in later adulthood, when the patient is likely to need only one implant…
Over the past couple of days, several reports have surfaced claiming that Sony has introduced a new form of DRM (Digital Rights Management) technology on PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 consoles. Supposedly, said DRM, which many believe was installed in the latest firmware updates for both systems, imposes a 30-day limit on any new digital purchases on either system. After these 30 days are up, you’ll reportedly be required to connect your PlayStation consoles to the internet so that Sony can validate your purchases. The primary source of this story is a video by homebrew and console modding content creator…
You know that old meme with the angry looking little kid posed behind the words, “Congrats”; “Happy for you”; “Nice”? That was me reading Caroline Bicks’ Monsters in the Archives: My Year of Fear with Stephen King. Here’s a snippet of the synopsis: “After Caroline Bicks was named the University of Maineʼs inaugural Stephen E. King Chair in Literature, she became the first scholar to be granted extended access by King to his private archives, a treasure trove of manuscripts that document the legendary writerʼs creative process—most of them never before studied or published.”You hate to see someone else living…
The bottom line: Astronauts likely won’t exceed Artemis II’s distance from Earth on most lunar landing missions, but it’s conceivable that on some occasions, circumstances will align to propel a crew a little beyond the 252,756-mile mark. The sure bet will come when someone finally takes aim at Mars. “Big disappointment” Haise, the only Apollo 13 astronaut still living, didn’t care much for the record he and his crewmates set in 1970. It was a consolation prize, of sorts, for Haise. You probably know the story of Apollo 13’s aborted lunar landing and the around-the-clock, high-stakes effort to bring the…

Instead of dimming the…
It’s now clear. Scientists predict that humanity will miss its target of keeping atmospheric warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial times, with the globe sailing into an even warmer future. And the impacts of this warming are escalating, from extreme weather disasters and hits to biodiversity to melting glaciers and sea level rise.So: How high will our temperature go? How long will it stay at its peak before cooling back down? And what will this mean for our planet?The 1.5 degrees C target was originally set by a landmark, legally binding international agreement back in 2015, at the Paris…
Friday’s keynote during the Final Fantasy XIV Fan Fest was packed with so many announcements that it felt genuinely overwhelming, and as a big player myself, I felt slightly greedy watching it. It seems like, in addition to its next major expansion, FFXIV also has a lot of exciting stuff on the way, including some seriously long-awaited QoL changes and what’s quite frankly an absurd port. If combing through that gigantic keynote presentation (which was genuinely two and a half hours long) isn’t your thing, I’ve got you. Here’s a list of everything important announced during today’s keynote. Evercold lands…
