Tech giant Apple chartered cargo flights to ferry 600 tons of iPhones, or as many as 1.5 million, to the United States from India, after it stepped up production there in an effort to beat President Donald Trump’s tariffs, sources told Reuters. The details of the push provide an insight into the US smartphone company’s private strategy to navigate around the Trump tariffs and build up inventory of its popular iPhones in the United States, one of its biggest markets. Analysts have warned that US prices of iPhones could surge, given Apple’s high reliance on imports from China, the main…
Molecular analysis has determined that a jawbone recovered off Taiwan’s coast came from a Denisovan, showing that this enigmatic lineage of archaic humans once inhabited a vast expanse in eastern Eurasia in environments ranging from cold and arid to warm and humid. Scientists were unable to extract DNA from the fossil — part of the lower jaw, with five teeth attached — but identified two protein variants present in the remains that they knew were specific to Denisovans, rather than either Neanderthals or our species Homo sapiens, based on previously studied fossils. Protein fragments in the dental enamel of the…
In May 2020, astronomers for the first time observed a planet getting swallowed by its host star. Based on the data at the time, they believed the planet met its doom as the star puffed up late in its lifespan, becoming what is called a red giant. New observations by the James Webb Space Telescope — sort of a postmortem examination — indicate that the planet’s demise happened differently than initially thought. Instead of the star coming to the planet, it appears the planet came to the star, with disastrous consequences — a death plunge after an erosion of this…
WhatsApp is rolling out a new chat memory feature for the Meta AI chatbot, and it is already available to some beta testers via the latest WhatsApp beta for Android 2.25.11.13 update. The new feature allows users to manually store details within the chatbot’s memory by explicitly instructing Meta AI to remember them. For example, if a user tells the chatbot that they work as a graphic designer and request it to remember this information, Meta AI will store it and use it to offer personalised suggestions, such as recommending productivity tools, suggesting useful design software, or sharing the latest…
At the heart of the galaxy SDSS1335+0728, located about 300 million light-years away from us, a supermassive black hole, which remained previously inactive, was seen erupting with the longest and most powerful X-ray blasts ever seen from such a cosmic titan. The start of the supermassive black hole devouring matter around it and erupting with short-lived flaring events called quasiperiodic eruptions (QPEs) is marked by this active phase, reported Space.com. The black hole is responsible for a region at the heart of its galaxy called an “active galactic nucleus,” or “AGN.” The team has dubbed this AGN “Ansky.” In late…
A Wisconsin teenager allegedly killed his parents as part of a plot to assassinate President Donald Trump, federal authorities said in newly unsealed court documents. Nikita Casap, 17, called for the assassination of the president and overthrow of the US government in written documents and text messages found by investigators, according to a federal affidavit obtained by CNN affiliate WISN. The alleged killing of his parents appeared to be an effort to attain the “financial means and autonomy” to carry out his plan, investigators said. Casap faces nine felony charges, including two counts of first-degree murder and two counts of…
