These Smoked Human Remains May be the Oldest Mummies Known to Science

gizmodo.com Margherita Bassi 2025-09-25 05:13:53

Researchers have discovered what they believe to be the earliest evidence of artificial mummification known to science, pushing back the timeline for the burial ritual to far before the time of the ancient Egyptians. Hunter-gatherers in Southeast Asia who lived some 20,000 and 4,000 years ago buried their dead in tightly crouched or squatting positions. Not only that, but these communities also practiced a form of mummification that involved drying out the human remains over a fire, as research

The god-like rogue-like dungeon crawler game Hades is one of the most popular games in recent memory — and one of my personal all-time favorite games.

I Went Inside Apple's Labs to See How Apple Watch Connectivity Is Tested

Stepping into the padded vault felt like entering some kind of portal. The sterile white room was lined with jagged, pyramid-shaped foam spires; a cross between a recording studio and some kind of icicle torture chamber straight out of Elsa's castle from the movie Frozen. I glanced down at my phone: no bars. Deep inside Apple's testing labs, I was officially off the grid. I've been reviewing smartwatches for almost a decade, but I've never once stopped to wonder how connectivity actually works

Best Apple Watch (2025): Buyer’s Guide to the Series 11, SE 3, and Ultra 3

wired.com Adrienne So 2025-09-25 05:30:00

If you have an iPhone, the Apple Watch is the best wearable to go with it. But what's the best Apple Watch to buy? Just a little while ago, this question was more complicated. In 2024, a court ruling dictated that Apple could no longer sell the Series 9, the Watch Ultra 2, and the Series 10 with a blood oxygen sensor. Medical technology company Masimo alleged that Apple had infringed on its patent. However, in August 2025, Apple redesigned the sensor via a software update, and you now have this

A new Megalopolis documentary reveals why it turned out like that

It’s been almost exactly a year since I first saw Megalopolis, and the last 12 months haven’t been kind to Francis Ford Coppola’s long-gestating epic. It mostly bewildered critics and audiences, earned back just a fraction of its $120 million budget, and still isn’t easily accessible via streaming or a Blu-ray release. Megalopolis is a film that the Godfather director had been thinking about for decades before the cameras started rolling, and that post-release chaos is nothing compared to what a
