Jack Dorsey’s New Private Messenger App Doesn’t Need an Internet Connection

What has Jack Dorsey, the founder of Twitter (now X) been up to lately? Among other things, creating experimental little projects, like a new private messenger that doesn’t need the internet to function. On Sunday, Dorsey announced the beta launch of a new messaging app that he says relies on mesh networks to pass messages from user to user via the power of Bluetooth technology. The service sounds vaguely like Amazon’s Sidewalk project (which similarly used mesh networks to power IoT devices),

Amazon Is Going All In, The Galaxy S25 Ultra Is Nearly Twice as Cheap as on Samsung’s Official Site

Apple may be the go-to brand on Prime Day with Amazon discounting everything (except the iPhone 16) but in smartphones, there’s yet another giant worth noting—Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra. Released back in January, the S25 Ultra is the definition of Android top-shelf and until today, it’s hung tough at its MSRP on Samsung’s home page. But on Prime Day, Amazon is coming huge for Prime members, offering a massive $350 instant discount on this premium device: That brings the price down to just $949 fo

I Swam With Anker's 'Built for the Wild' Bluetooth Speaker -- It's a Bargain at 32% Off for Prime Day

A little less than five years ago, Anker released a Bluetooth speaker called the Soundcore Motion Plus that turned out to be popular because it delivered surprisingly good sound for its compact size and $100 price. In some ways, Anker's new Soundcore Boom 3iSoundcore Boom 3i is the spiritual successor to that speaker. It's similarly shaped but has more of an outdoor adventure slant.

Tuesday Telescope: Webb and Hubble team up to reveal spectacular star clusters

Welcome to the Tuesday Telescope. There is a little too much darkness in this world and not enough light—a little too much pseudoscience and not enough science. We’ll let other publications offer you a daily horoscope. At Ars Technica, we’ll take a different route, finding inspiration from very real images of a universe that is filled with stars and wonder. Open clusters of stars—which consist of dozens up to a few thousand stars—are an interesting tool for astronomers to study the Universe. T

Southeast Asia needn't take sides in US-China tech rivalry. It can learn from both, experts say

How scientists are trying to use AI to unlock the human mind

Compared with conventional psychological models, which use simple math equations, Centaur did a far better job of predicting behavior. Accurate predictions of how humans respond in psychology experiments are valuable in and of themselves: For example, scientists could use Centaur to pilot their experiments on a computer before recruiting, and paying, human participants. In their paper, however, the researchers propose that Centaur could be more than just a prediction machine. By interrogating th

Why the US and Europe could lose the race for fusion energy

The US and Europe were the dominant public funders of fusion energy research and are home to many of the world’s pioneering private fusion efforts. The West has consequently developed many of the basic technologies that will make fusion power work. But in the past five years China’s support of fusion energy has surged, threatening to allow the country to dominate the industry. The industrial base available to support China’s nascent fusion energy industry could enable it to climb the learning c

AI could help humans copilot space missions one day, researchers find

Ignatiev/Getty Images Sci-fi authors and screenwriters have long envisioned AI companions helping humans as they explore the cosmos.

Now, AI-assisted spacefaring -- like so many other concepts that, not so long ago, seemed utterly far-fetched -- could soon become a practical reality.
