Some of these services don't offer as much customer support as the best services, don't offer as many security features or lack an uptime guarantee. You still might find a service that works for you. HostPapa HostPapa is a Canadian web hosting company with plans available in numerous currencies, including CAD, Euros and the Australian dollar.

Google tool misused to scrub tech CEO’s shady past from search

arstechnica.com Unknown 2026-01-06 23:18:18

Google is fond of saying its mission is to "organize the world's information," but who gets to decide what information is worthy of organization? A San Francisco tech CEO has spent the past several years attempting to remove unflattering information about himself from Google's search index, and the nonprofit Freedom of the Press Foundation says he's still at it. Most recently, an unknown bad actor used a bug in one of Google's search tools to scrub the offending articles. The saga began in 2023

Existing NASA Spacecraft Could Intercept the Weird Interstellar Object Cruising Into Our Star System

futurism.com Unknown 2026-01-07 03:21:48

Earlier this month, astronomers noticed a mysterious object speeding toward the inner solar system from outside of our star system. It's an exceedingly rare occurrence, marking only the third confirmed interstellar object to have ventured into our solar system, all of which have been detected since 2017. Harvard astronomer and alien hunter Avi Loeb was quick to raise the tantalizing — albeit admittedly far-fetched — possibility that the object, dubbed 3I/ATLAS, could have been an alien probe s

Google’s Newest AI Model Acts like a Satellite to Track Climate Change

Google’s newest AI model is going to scour the Earth and, ideally, help it out. That's the plan, anyway. The mission is to find out once and for all, in fine detail, what we are doing to our planet. Crucially, once the model has supposedly done this it will also, apparently, explain where we might be able to best put things in place to help our world.

So far we’ve learned about new knights joining various sides of the war, including fan-favorite Northman “Roddy the Ruin.” And now we’ve got a new woman entering the male-dominated fray to throw her support behind Rhaenyra Targaryen: Alysanne Blackwood, to be played by Annie Shapero.

PUBG’s plan to beat Fortnite, Roblox, and every other game

theverge.com Jay Peters 2026-01-07 09:23:37

Roblox and Fortnite are two of the biggest games around, and a huge part of why is because they aren’t just one game: instead, they’re vast platforms where you can party up with your friends, dress up in ridiculous digital outfits, and quickly jump from one experience to another. Back in the day, Fortnite copied PUBG by making a battle royale, and now, PUBG is mimicking Fortnite by trying to become more of a platform than a game.

He grew kale, peppers, eggplants and radishes, selling to Whole Foods from June through October and to local restaurants, grocers and families year-round. The vegetable farm was born in 2009 on a quarter acre rented to him by his father, a row crop farmer.

Making Roman concrete produces as much CO2 as modern concrete

Builders in ancient Rome used a special kind of ancient concrete to construct their aqueducts, bridges, and buildings. But is Roman concrete more sustainable than the Portland cement used in today's concrete? The answer is more nuanced than one might think, according to a new paper published in the journal iScience.
