gizmodo.com Gayoung Lee 2025-08-18 03:20:54

After relying on an educated guess for decades, scientists have finally confirmed the dipole moment of aluminum monochloride (AlCl), an elusive but important molecule known to sneak around the interiors of ancient galaxies. An electric dipole moment is a measure of polarity—a crucial determinant for many physical properties of any system, such as its boiling point or solubility. Given its importance, the new result, published last month in Physical Review A, presents exciting opportunities for

A ‘Cheap’ MacBook With an iPhone Chip Could Bring Battery Life Like We’ve Never Seen Before

gizmodo.com Raymond Wong 2025-08-18 11:47:11

There’s an Apple rumor going around that I can’t stop musing about. (No, it’s not about a foldable iPhone.) It’s for a low-cost 13-inch MacBook that could cost hundreds of dollars less than Apple’s current $999 13-inch M4 MacBook Air. Noted tech analyst and supply chain sleuth Ming-Chi Kuo of TF International Securities said on Sunday that Apple is working on a 13-inch laptop powered by an A18 Pro chip.

The Titanic’s Best Lifeboat

Everyone grows up learning the same story about the RMS Titanic, that when the ship set out on its maiden voyage in 1912, the owners and authorities, confident that the ship was unsinkable, did not require it to carry a full complement of lifeboats. So when the Titanic sank in the frigid waters of the North Atlantic, more than half of the people on board died for lack of lifeboat space.
