In 1963, paleoarchaeologists working in southern Italy discovered a unique and puzzling burial scene within an ancient cave known as Grotta del Romito. Inside the cavern, researchers excavated the bodies of two Paleolithic individuals buried in an embrace over 12,000 years ago with no signs of outward trauma. Designated Romito 1 and Romito 2, both subjects had clearly shortened limbs, each with a respective height of around 4.75 and 3.6 feet tall.  In the six decades since, experts have argued at length about the…

Remasters are inherently nostalgic, attempting to evoke a certain feel and mood again years after the original release. Few of them, however, symbolize a time capsule as much as Poker Night at the Inventory. The concept of sitting down characters from four different franchises at the same poker table was novel in 2010. Now, after the likes of Fortnite have fostered an ever-increasing IP onslaught, bringing back such an oddity of a crossover makes for a significant contrast.Poker Night at the Inventory was born as a spiritual successor to Telltale Texas Hold’em. At the time, Telltale Games CEO Dan Conners…

That’s a fine plan, but NASA’s program to support commercial space stations, known as Commercial LEO Destinations (CLDs), is going nowhere fast. Supporters of the CLD program say it has been underfunded from the start, and the strategy became more muddled last year when Sean Duffy, then NASA’s acting administrator, changed the agency’s rules for private space stations. NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman is reviewing the changes, and the requirements for stations may shift again. NASA spends more than $3 billion per year for ISS operations, including crew and cargo transportation services to staff and support the outpost. NASA’s budget for…

Approximately 290 million years ago, a carnivorous dinosaur stomping around present-day Germany had a tummy ache. The Paleozoic predator eventually vomited up its stomach contents, and then hopefully continued to live its best dino life. Unlike most ancient regurgitated meals, this particular mixture of half-eaten prey and digestive bacteria successfully fossilized into what’s known as a regurgitalite. In 2021, paleontologists discovered the extremely rare find while working in the famous Bromacker Permian dig site, about 155 miles southwest of Berlin. As they detail in…

Stern Pinball has announced that an official Pokemon pinball table is on the way, but you’ll need some deep pockets to buy one. While the company hasn’t revealed what the table will look like, it has set a price for these expensive machines and a “coming soon” release window.According to Stern, the Pro model will cost $6,999, the Premium table is priced at $9,699, and a limited-edition model is an eye-watering $12,999. Of these, only 750 are being made, and if it’s anything like Stern’s other ultra-limited pinball machines, it’ll have some sort of gimmick to justify its price. For…

Vivo brought in a new premium smartphone in the Indian market with the Vivo X200T. Positioned as a flagship killer, this model brings high end specs and features at a more approachable price point. But just a couple of weeks ago, the Vivo X300 debuted as the brand’s true flagship model alongside the X300 Pro. So we have one model aimed squarely at delivering flagship-class experience at a slightly more accessible price, and the other positioned as a true flagship with top-tier imaging and performance. Choosing between them isn’t just about price, so here’s a detailed comparison to help you…

The automotive industry’s big bet on a rapid adoption of electric vehicles—at least here in the United States—continues to unwind. Today, Stellantis, which owns brands like Jeep and Dodge, as well as Fiat, Peugeot, and others, announced that it has “reset” its business to adapt to reality, which comes with a rather painful $26.2 billion (22.2 billion euro) write-down. It wasn’t that long ago that everyone was more bullish on electrification. Even the US had relatively ambitious plans to boost EV adoption into the next decade, including a big commitment to charging infrastructure. Ten new battery factories were announced, and…

A fully grown adult easily reaches over 13 feet long, making them the largest venomous snakes in the world. But despite their size and iconic appearance, at least one vulnerable species in India is sneaking aboard trains and accidentally arriving into new and dangerous habitats. In a study recently published in the journal Biotropica, researchers from Museum Liebnitz in Bonn, Germany, analyzed available verified local cobra reports and rescue records made between 2002…

Code Vein 2 hit PlayStation 5, Xbox series X|S, and PC at the end of January, and so far, the response hasn’t been everything that Bandai Namco had hoped for after a seven-year gap between games. The publisher has now acknowledged that Code Vein 2 needs a major tuneup to address its issues, and Bandai Namco wants players to know that those fixes are on the way.In a message shared on social media, Bandai Namco said the dev team is “committed to improving the game for a better experience” before promising to make “major adjustments” to Code Vein 2 in…
