AOL is finally shutting down dial-up

theverge.com Thomas Ricker 2025-12-02 23:32:48

As a septuagenarian, my father’s story was typical of long-time AOL dial-up subscribers. His subscription was a security blanket. He was sure he didn’t need the dial-up component, but he didn’t want to risk losing access to his stock portfolio, investor forums, and email. His setup worked, and he could afford to keep paying the subscription he had dutifully paid for over a decade. With my help, we were able to migrate everything he used on AOL to the ad-supported and open internet that was alre

My Google Keep notes were a mess — here’s how I got them under control

Joe Maring / Android Authority Google Keep has been my go-to note-taking app for years, but I recently noticed that my disorganized notes were becoming overwhelming, making it harder to find what I was looking for. I had previously tried color-coding notes and pinning important ones, however these fixes were no longer enough. I decided to finally get control over my notes by using features I’d often ignored, including labels and deleting old notes I no longer needed. But I also moved some of m

The Tech That Keeps Planes Flying for Ultra-Long-Haul Flights

wired.com Mitch Moxley 2025-12-10 06:00:00

This year marks the 20th anniversary of the maiden flight of the Airbus A380, the double-decker, wide-body aircraft that remains the largest passenger plane ever built. At 10:30 am local time on April 27, 2005, the giant, four-engine aircraft lifted off from the airport in Blagnac, a suburb of Toulouse in southern France, and did a quick loop of the area, staying within about 100 miles of the tarmac. When it took its first commercial flight six months later, the A380—which typically seats more t

NASA explains how it keeps the Curiosity rover running, 13 years later

Thirteen years ago, the Curiosity rover landed on Mars, inside Gale crater in particular. It was originally sent to the red planet for a two-year mission, but it was extended indefinitely just a few months into its operations. The rover has several goals, most of which are meant to help scientists determine whether Mars could ever have supported life in the past. And while it's still very much operational and doing science, NASA has had to make adjustments and give it new capabilities to ensure

‘The Long Walk’ Wanted Mark Hamill for His ‘Star Wars’ Sequels Performance

Mark Hamill hasn’t been shy about discussing his, shall we say, dislike of Luke Skywalker’s arc in the Star Wars sequel trilogy, specifically in the movie where the character has the most prominence: The Last Jedi. He’s all but closed the door on ever returning to his most famous character, but the prolific actor has kept extremely busy with other roles, including two Mike Flanagan projects, The Fall of the House of Usher and Life of Chuck.

Analyzing Ancient Footprints, Scientists Find Evidence Dinos Like T-Rex Did the "Moonwalk" to Attract Mates

Scientists have discovered that a fossil site in Colorado was once the equivalent of a popular nightclub back in the long-ago Cretaceous era. In those times, male dinosaurs, some similar to the Tyrannosaurus rex, traveled to this once long-ago plain of tidal mud to preen and bust dance moves — even doing what the researchers described as a prehistoric moonwalk a la Michael Jackson— in hopes of catching the eyes of obliging females at the scene, according to a new study in the journal Cretaceous

The New ‘Long Walk’ Trailer Promises a Grim, Nightmarish Stephen King Survival Tale

Think the Losers’ Club in It for King and every young person to appear in a Hunger Games movie for Lawrence. So to combine their talents on The Long Walk, based on King’s 1979 dystopian novel, feels rather ideal—not to mention nightmarish, as the film’s brutal first trailer suggested.

Technological advancements have brought us many things. For paleontologists, it’s introduced the ability to probe softer material—skin, feathers, scales, and hair—found on fossilized creatures. And that’s resulting in some strange new findings about long-extinct animals, showing us that they’re even weirder than we imagined.
