We’ve all seen it: a kid with one finger wedged up a nostril, mining the cavity for a golden nugget, teasing it out, and then gobbling it like a tasty snack. It may be gross to adults, but most children seem completely unfazed. So why do kids eat their boogers, and are they possibly onto something?Most parents will tell you how common it is for children to eat their own mucus — a behavior known as “mucophagy” — yet data on its prevalence are scarce.One survey suggests that nose picking overall isn’t limited to kids; adults commonly do it, too.…

However, some users have posted on Reddit about hearing a very loud popping sound…
Helldivers 2 doesn’t give its players much of breather before throwing another invasion or intergalactic threat at them. Players across PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC have a new reason to be wary, now that Arrowhead Studios CEO Shams Jorjani has been teasing the potential return of an old enemy faction.On the Helldivers Discord channel, Jorjani wrote the following message in binary code: “01011001 01101111 01110101 00100111 01110010 01100101 00100000 01100111 01101111 01101110 01101110 01100001 00100000 01110011 01101000 01101001 01110100 00100000 01111001 01101111 01110101 01110010 00100000 01110000 01100001 01101110 01110100 01110011.”According to GamesRadar, that code translates to English as…
The final exposure control feature is one I use a lot, and it’s exposure compensation. This works with the auto exposure and can be used to combat the tendency to go too slow with the shutter speed be forcing the Ace Pro 2 to underexpose the image. The exposure comp here is the best among action cameras, running from –4 stops to + 4 stops in ⅓-stop increments. I set the Xplorer Grip to control EV, so when I am in auto mode, the dial is an exposure comp dial just like “real” camera. (The dial can also be set…

Bad news for Valve in particular? On the surface, it might seem like every company making gaming hardware would be similarly affected by increasing component costs. In practice, though, analysts suggested that Valve might be in a uniquely bad position to absorb this ongoing market disruption. Large console makers like Sony and Microsoft “can commit to tens of millions of orders, and have strong negotiating power,” Niko Partners analyst Daniel Ahmad pointed out. The Steam Machine, on the other hand, is “a niche product that cannot benefit in the same way when it comes to procurement,” meaning Valve has to…

It was supposed to be able to help users track food and correct workout forms using their iPhone’s camera,…
