arstechnica.com Unknown 2025-09-20 21:20:34

Less than a month ago, we looked at how current game console prices were historically high due to price increases from all three major console makers. Today, that analysis is already a bit out of date, as Microsoft has announced its second set of Xbox price increases this year in the US.

Clean hydrogen is facing a big reality check

technologyreview.com Casey Crownhart 2025-09-24 21:00:00

Here are three things to know about the state of hydrogen in 2025. 1. Expectations for annual clean hydrogen production by 2030 are shrinking, for the first time. While hydrogen has the potential to serve as a clean fuel, today most is made with processes that use fossil fuels. As of 2025, about a million metric tons of low-emissions hydrogen are produced annually. That’s less than 1% of total hydrogen production. In last year’s Global Hydrogen Report, the IEA projected that global production

The Sun Is Entering a New and Unexpected Active Stage

New research published September 8 in The Astrophysical Journal Letters suggests that 2008 marked the beginning of a steady increase in solar activity. To be clear, this “reversal” extends beyond the well-known 11-year cycles the Sun typically follows. Specifically, the researchers found a slow uptick in many of the Sun’s key “vita
