There Has Never Been a Better Time to Revisit the Original ‘Gundam’

Gundam has spent nearly 50 years reinventing itself across myriad side stories, new universes, and reimaginings of the story that started it all in the events of the “Universal Century” that kicked off in the original 1979 series Mobile Suit Gundam. There are so many ways to get into the franchise, newer starting points, perhaps less intimidating starting points than a 43-episode TV series. But there’s a reason the original Gundam still endures as one of the best, if not the best, entry points a

Apple on Thursday announced a series of updates to its developer policies to comply with the EU’s Digital Markets Act (DMA). The news, which was expected, arrived just in time to meet the deadline of June 26, after which the iPhone maker would risk new fines.

Ancient Rocks in Canada Are Almost as Old as the Earth Itself

gizmodo.com Margherita Bassi 2026-02-26 20:00:14

Due to the movement of Earth’s tectonic plates, our planet’s crust is constantly recycled, making rocks and minerals from its earliest days incredibly rare. That’s frustrating for geologists, since surface-level Hadean rocks (rocks older than 4.03 billion years) could provide significant insight into the first geological stages of Earth’s 4.5-billion-year history.
