TL;DR The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE have passed by the FCC. The Galaxy Z Fold 7 apparently uses the Snapdragon 8 Elite chip, as expected.

The Sixties Come Back to Life in "Everything Is Now"

The film critic and cultural historian J. Hoberman’s new book, “Everything Is Now: The 1960s New York Avant-Garde—Primal Happenings, Underground Movies, Radical Pop,” is as jubilantly overstuffed as its subtitle. The book is a startlingly slow read—and I say that with unbridled enthusiasm.

Pentagon Has Been Pushing Americans to Believe in UFOs for Decades, New Report

UFOs have been back in the news a lot lately, and it may be the case that the government wants it that way. Last week, the Wall Street Journal published the first of a two-part series that probes the ways in which the Defense Department has been responsible for creating and fostering the UFO mythology in America. The article shows that the government has, at various points over the years, purposefully sown disinformation about UFOs, in an effort to make Americans believe in little green men. Th

Experimental retina implants give mice infrared vision

arstechnica.com Unknown 2026-03-24 00:08:21

Human vision relies on photoreceptor cells in the retina that react to visible light and trigger neurons in the optic nerve to send signals to the brain. Degradation of these photoreceptors is the leading cause of vision impairments, including blindness. However, a team of scientists at China’s Fudan University has recently built prototype retinal implants that can replace the failing photoreceptors and potentially provide infrared vision as a bonus. Sadly, they’ve only been tested in animals,
