gizmodo.com Lucas Ropek 2025-10-29 22:10:03

Earlier this year, the Trump administration raised eyebrows and inspired scoffs when it announced it wanted to buy Greenland. Since then, the government has ignored the laughs and continued to pursue its stated objective. Now, a new report from a Danish news outlet alleges that multiple Americans with direct ties to Trump have been engaged in covert “influence operations” aimed at Greenlanders. The purpose of these propaganda efforts is to sow division between the Nordic territory and its parent

This Giant Sphere Just Joined the Hunt for ‘Ghost Particles’

The elusive neutrino—a near massless particle with no charge—tests the limits of physicists’ creativity, but sometimes the answer is just to go big. And the biggest detector of them all has finally joined the search for the so-called “ghost particles.” After a decade of construction, China’s Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO) officially began taking data on August 26.

Apple Revokes EU Distribution Rights for an App on the Alt Store

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-10-30 13:15:54

Under EU law, Apple is required to give its users more freedom to install apps that are not listed in the official App Store. This allows for easier access to software that's typically prohibited by Apple, including the popular iTorrent BitTorrent client. The iTorrent client built a steady user base over the past year, but that came to an abrupt end when Apple decided to revoke the developer's alternative distribution rights. Historically, Apple has banned torrent clients from its iOS devices.
