Then there’s the cost. Alcor charges $80,000 to store a person’s brain, and around $220,000 to store a whole body. Tomorrow.Bio’s charges are slightly higher. Many people, including Kendziorra himself, opt to cover this cost via a life insurance policy. Perhaps the main reason people don’t opt for cryonic preservation is that we don’t have any way to bring people back. Bedford has been in storage for more than 50 years, Coles for more than a decade. All the scientists I’ve spoken to say the likelihood of reanimating remains like theirs is vanishingly small. The fact that the possibility—however tiny—is above zero…
Maine lawmakers have approved legislation that effectively shuts down online sweepstakes platforms that mimic casino gambling, marking one of the clearest state-level crackdowns yet on the fast-growing sector. Senate Bill 2007 cleared the Legislature on March 26, 2026, after months of committee review and debate. The proposal was submitted by the Department of Public Safety and introduced in the Senate by Sen. Craig Hickman of Kennebec during the 132nd Legislature’s second regular session. Once enacted, the measure makes it explicit under Maine law that operating or promoting online sweepstakes games constitutes unlawful gambling and exposes violators to both civil and…
In August 2025, we introduced AWS User Experience Customization (UXC) capability to tailor user interfaces (UIs) to meet your specific needs and complete your tasks efficiently. With this capability, your account administrator can customize some UI component of AWS Management Console, such as assigning a color to an AWS account for easier identification. Today, we’re announcing additional customization capability in UXC that enables selective display of relevant AWS Regions and services for your team members. By hiding unused Regions and services, you can reduce cognitive load and eliminate unnecessary clicks and scrolling, helping you focus better and work faster. With this launch,…
Posted by Eric Lynch, Product Manager, Android and Dom Elliot, Group Product Manager, Google Play Modern digital security is at a turning point. We are on the threshold of using quantum computers to solve “impossible” problems in drug discovery, materials science, and energy—tasks that even the most powerful classical supercomputers cannot handle. However, the same unique ability to consider different options simultaneously also allows these machines to bypass our current digital locks. This puts the public-key cryptography we’ve relied on for decades at risk, potentially compromising everything from bank transfers to trade secrets. To secure our future, it is vital…
Rinsing off a cleanser takes two seconds and disappears from thought. Where it actually goes – what happens after the drain – is a question most people never ask, and the skincare industry has been quietly fine with that arrangement. The sector does more than $155 billion annually. It also has a documented chemical trail, one that researchers have spent years following from bathroom drains into river sediment, coastal waters, marine mammal tissue. Polar bear livers. Dolphin fat. These aren’t activist talking points or edge cases. Peer-reviewed studies – some from as recently as 2025 – keep finding the same…
Operators running industrial IoT robotic fleets could look to AI developed by MIT and Symbotic that optimises warehouse navigation.Inside massive autonomous distribution centres, hundreds of automated units dart down aisles to collect items and fulfill customer orders. As facility managers add more physical assets to the floor, minor traffic snarls easily escalate into widespread delays.When traditional routing algorithms buckle under the computational weight, operators occasionally have to halt operations for hours to clear the backlog manually. To prevent these bottlenecks, researchers engineered a hybrid framework to orchestrate edge devices. Their approach monitors how congestion forms and adapts by prioritising units…
OnePlus India just announced that device owners would be able to use OPPO service centers from April. This news coincidentally comes after a report that the company could exit global markets as soon as next month. It now sounds like OnePlus is making a massive retail change in India.Unnamed sources told Moneycontrol that OnePlus India plans to effectively shut down offline retail operations as part of a shift to an online-first business model. The manufacturer has apparently asked partner-run exclusive stores to shut down. It’s believed that only three company-owned stores might remain in business. The outlet adds that distributors…
PI’s piezo design and manufacturing division, PI Ceramic, offers a comprehensive portfolio of standard, custom, and value-added piezoelectric devices from piezo stacks to ultrasonic transducers. In addition to producing advanced piezoelectric ceramic formulations and components, PI supplies a wide range of piezo drivers and controllers for applications spanning nanopositioning, nano-dosing and pumping, and healthcare technologies, for both OEM and research. 6-Channel driver for piezo transducers, scanner tubes, shear actuators, piezo stacks. Image Credit: PI (Physik Instrumente) LP With the introduction of a new multi-channel, low-noise piezo driver, PI further expands its lineup of high-precision piezo amplifiers. These solutions are ideal…
Modern cloud-native systems are built on highly dynamic, distributed infrastructure where containers spin up and down constantly, services communicate across clusters, and traditional networking assumptions break down. Linux networking was designed decades ago around static IPs and linear rule processing, which makes it increasingly difficult to achieve scale in Kubernetes environments. At the same time, modifying the Linux kernel to keep up with these demands is slow, risky, and impractical for most organizations. The Extended Berkeley Packet Filter, or eBPF, is a Linux kernel technology that allows sandboxed programs to run safely inside the kernel without modifying kernel source code…
