Image by Steve Christo / Corbis via Getty / Futurism Rx/Medicines Scientists have found new evidence that Ozempic-like drugs can help reverse aging — yet another health benefit added to the laundry list of off-label usages for the popular diabetes jab. In a new, not-yet-peer-reviewed paper, research led by scientist Varun Dwaraka of the TruDiagnostic aging lab in Kentucky suggests that once-weekly shots of semaglutide, the GLP-1 drug in Ozempic and its weight loss sister drug Wegovy, can reduc

For giant carnivorous dinosaurs, big size didn’t mean a big bite

arstechnica.com Unknown 2025-12-02 21:06:25

When a Spinosaurus attacked a T. rex in Jurassic Park III, both giant carnivores tried to finish the fight with one powerful bite of their bone-crushing jaws. The Spinosaurus won, because when the movie was being made back in the early 2000s, fossil discoveries suggested it was the largest carnivorous dinosaur that ever lived. But new research provides evidence that size and weight didn’t always create a powerful bite. “The Spinosaurus and the T. rex didn’t live at the same time at the same con

My 4 favorite image editing apps on Linux - and two are free Photoshop alternatives

Some might expect I'd be turning to an operating system like MacOS or Windows for image editing. But they'd be wrong.

Sam Altman touted GPT-5 as a “PhD level expert in your pocket”, but this PhD doubled down on incorrectly answering the oldest trick for LLMs in the book.

Fast charging quietly changed my life — and it might change yours too

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-12-05 06:00:49

Dhruv Bhutani / Android Authority I’m old enough to remember when most smartphones topped out at 5W or even 10W charging speeds. In fact, my first proper Android phone was 2012’s Sony Xperia V, and it offered a mere 5W power level. The world has moved on rapidly, with 45W, 65W, 80W, and even 120W charge speeds now available. But even so, some users still prefer slow charging. However, to be honest, I think most people don’t realize they want fast charging until they’ve actually used it. How f

After Mount Vesuvius Demolished Pompeii, People Returned to Live Among the Ruins

gizmodo.com Margherita Bassi 2025-12-05 06:56:11

In 79 CE, Mount Vesuvius erupted in what would become one of humanity’s most infamous ancient tragedies. Tens of centuries later, archaeologists eagerly dug through the ash and pumice to rediscover the buried Roman cities of Pompeii and Herculaneum in all their preserved glory. In their eagerness, however, they may have missed an important layer of history. While working in the Insula meridionalis—the southern quarter of Pompeii’s ancient urban center—archaeologists uncovered evidence confirmin
