A new study suggests that giving immunochemotherapy earlier in the day helps patients with an advanced type of lung cancer live longer.Previous studies suggested that the body’s internal clock, the circadian rhythm, can influence how well immune checkpoint inhibitors work. These drugs help the immune system recognize and attack cancer cells by blocking tumors’ ability to shut those immune responses down.In several cancers — such as kidney, liver, stomach, esophagus, and head and neck cancers, as well as melanoma — giving this treatment in the morning has been associated with better outcomes than giving it in the late afternoon or…

Redditors who have played with the plugin so far seem impressed. “Absolutely blown away. Every single amp, mic, cab and pedal option is usable and sounds amazing,” wrote one. “I’m a mostly clean-to-slight-crunch player, and this is by FAR the most plug-in-and-get-great-sounds-out-of-it NDSP plugin for that style that I’ve tried,” wrote another. But they also echo my chief complaint. The downside of all these guitar sim plugins is that they are getting increasingly expensive. Universal Audio’s recent Paradise Guitar Studio claims a full price of $199 (I say “claims” because most of the company’s products are on sale most of…

Ancient lava rubble on the seafloor can store huge amounts of carbon dioxide like a giant “sponge,” a new study finds.Cores collected from beneath the southern Atlantic Ocean show that this rubble — which formed through volcanic activity and spread across the ocean floor over millions of years — stores between two and 40 times as much carbon dioxide as the upper crust at the bottom of the ocean, according to research published Nov. 24 in the journal Nature Geoscience. The findings may help scientists better understand how Earth’s climate changed in the past.Over millions of years, carbon cycles through…

If you’re a fan of Amazon’s ecosystem, whether that’s asking your Alexa speaker to tell you about the weather or compulsively checking the video feed from your Ring doorbell, then it makes sense to expand and build onto the system. It’s always easier to keep to one ecosystem as much as you can with smart home gear, letting you stick to a single app and single subscription if you decide to invest in one.While we’ve liked Ring’s cameras and home security products fine enough, they’re hard to recommend at the top of our guides since Ring is reintroducing a policy…

In the coming weeks, four Avengers: Doomsday trailers are supposed to be playing in theaters ahead of Avatar: Fire and Ash. Each of these teasers focuses on one of a handful of characters in its very large cast, with this week’s focusing on Steve Rogers. This strategy feels like a pretty desperate way to get Marvel diehards to see the three-hour long movie multiple times, but it’s working, as some fans attended early, midnight showings of James Cameron’s latest sequel not to return to the world of Pandora but simply to catch the Avengers teaser. However, some fans are reporting…

A NASA spacecraft designed to hunt for signs of extraterrestrial life has turned its lens toward comet 3I/ATLAS — but not for the reason you might think. The spacecraft just happened to be in the right place at the right time.Zooming through the solar system at an estimated 153,000 mph (246,000 km/h), the beguiling interstellar comet will reach its closest point to Earth overnight tonight (Dec. 18-19). At its closest, 3I/ATLAS will swoop within about 168 million miles (270 million kilometers) of our planet.It’s close enough that amateur astronomers can spot it with a good backyard telescope, though skywatchers should…

This effect was likely to be most pronounced in people that weren’t native speakers of English. If the researchers limited the analysis to people with Asian names working at institutions in Asia, their rate of submissions to bioRxiv and SSRN nearly doubled once they started using AI and rose by over 40 percent at the arXiv. This suggests that people who may not have the strongest English skills are using LLMs to overcome a major bottleneck: producing compelling text. Quantity vs. quality The value of producing compelling text should not be underestimated. “Papers with clear but complex language are perceived…

The Federal Trade Commission has sent Instacart a civil investigative demand, seeking information about its AI-powered pricing tool, according to Reuters. This comes after a recently published pricing experiment study showed that the online grocery delivery app gave different users different prices for the same items from the same store location at the exact same time. Some of the testers saw prices up to 23 percent higher than what the other testers saw, though the average difference for the same list of items was around 7 percent. Those higher prices could cost customers over $1,000 more in expenses for the…

The Outfoxies arrives on consoles 30 years later. Tencent invests in its own version of Ready or Not. And could we finally get a Kingdom Three Crowns? It’s the latest edition of Morning Checkpoint, Kotaku‘s daily roundup of gaming news and culture. All I can think about right now is how there’s a perfect Simpsons screenshot for every major game released in 2025. And no one had to use AI to make them. Fallout is coming to Black Ops 7 season 1 Activision teased the latest post-apocalyptic Call of Duty crossover with silhouettes of the Amazon show’s main characters, including…
