Your iPhone is so much more than just a screen for texting. Smartphones are how we get work done, stay on top of the crazy news cycle, rock out, keep in touch with friends and family, and capture life’s most important moments. Carrying all of that information in our pockets is incredibly powerful, and it makes getting through our days a little easier. It also means that your most important data can get lost when you forget your phone on the train or have an unfortunate spat with the sidewalk. I

Police Puzzled by 180 Kilos of SpaceX-Branded Cocaine Found at Crash Site

futurism.com Unknown 2025-09-20 21:06:18

A single-engine plane crashed landed in a field of sugar cane in Brazil over the weekend, according to local news media Alagoas 24 Horas, killing the pilot and leaving behind 180 kilograms — or almost 400 pounds — of cocaine. So far, it just sounds like a tale of drug smuggling gone awry. Except that the coke, stacked together in neat bricks and wrapped in plastic, as shown in a video from local police obtained by Alagoas, sported a distinctive label: the official SpaceX logo, in blue and white

Even though the original company is no longer with us, I believe there are two ways to remember the BlackBerry brand.

Pnpm has a new setting to stave off supply chain attacks

There have been several incidents recently where popular packages were successfully attacked. To reduce the risk of installing a compromised version, we are introducing a new setting that delays the installation of newly released dependencies. In most cases, such attacks are discovered quickly and the malicious versions are removed from the registry within an hour. The new setting is called minimumReleaseAge .

macOS Tahoe Incompatible with Mac Studio M3 Ultra

If you have a Mac Studio M3 Ultra and want to upgrade it to run macOS 26.0 Tahoe, then I’m afraid you’re going to have wait for Apple to build a new release that will install on your Mac. I’m very grateful to Ken who has tried unsuccessfully to upgrade from 15.7 to 26.0. There are plenty of others reporting exactly the same: the upgrade goes well until towards the end, then aborts and the Mac is restarted back into 15.7.

You can hold on to your butts thanks to DNA that evolved in fish

Evolution has adapted the digits of mammals for an enormous range of uses, from our opposable thumbs to the spindly digits that support bat wings to the robust bones that support the hoofs of horses. But how we got digits in the first place hasn't been entirely clear. The fish that limbed vertebrates evolved from don't have obvious digit equivalents, and the most common types of fish just have a large collection of rays supporting their fins.
