You’ve probably heard about how you can save big by paying upfront, with plans starting as low as $15 a month. But is Mint Mobile too good to be true?

Internally at 9to5Mac, there have been a few conversations about the lack of releases in new HomeKit cameras in recent years.

Today, we know of Mars as a cold, dry desert, with patches of subterranean ice and ice caps at its poles. Billions of years ago, however, liquid water flowed freely across the planet. And, while NASA's various Mars rovers have uncovered signs that such water once existed on Mars , there's perhaps no better evidence of an ice-free, shallow lake than these two sets of ripples in Martian rock.
