gizmodo.com Ed Cara 2025-10-15 15:53:47

One of the world’s most sought-after drugs has officially become a vital medication. The World Health Organization has just added semaglutide—the active ingredient in Ozempic and Wegovy—to its list of essential medicines. The WHO’s Model Lists of Essential Medicines is designed to improve affordability and access for the world’s most impactful drugs. Semaglutide and other GLP-1 drugs are among 20 new additions to the list, and it’s clear why. GLP-1s have completely reshaped how clinicians treat

Using Your Phone on Toilet May Give You Hemorrhoids: Study

news.ycombinator.com Https 2025-10-15 17:17:16

Of all the crappy ways smartphones have affected our health, this one is a real kick in the pants. A first-of-its-kind study links excessive scrolling on the phone while sitting on the toilet with hemorrhoids. (Insert poo emojis.) But, seriously. Sitting on an open bowl offers no support for the pelvic floor. That puts pressure on veins in the rectum, making them swollen and inflamed. “The longer you sit on the toilet, the worse it is for you,” said Dr. Trisha Pasricha, director of the Beth

Venice’s Iconic Winged Lion Statue Has a Mysterious Origin Story

gizmodo.com Margherita Bassi 2025-10-15 19:20:12

One of the most iconic symbols of Venice is the winged lion sculpture that perches atop a column in the Piazza San Marco, or St. Mark’s Square. It’s even depicted on the flag of the Republic of Venice. But while it is known as the Lion of Venice, the statue’s origin story appears to be far murkier than once believed. In a new paper published Thursday in the journal Antiquity, researchers lay out evidence that the bronze statue was made using copper ore from the Lower Yangzi River basin in China

This Extremely Slim Phone Is Hitting Apple and Samsung Where It Hurts

You have to travel across the world to find just how Americans are devoid of choice for interesting phones. At IFA 2025, I went hands-on with Tecno’s Slim phone—or at least I tried to hold onto its incredibly thin frame. It’s an apt name for such an irregular phone, one that has me asking whether Samsung and—potentially—Apple need to rethink what people really want from frisbee-light phones.
