Inertial forces (indirect terms) in problems with a central body

Gravitational systems in astrophysics often comprise a body – the primary – that far outweights the others, and which is taken as the centre of the reference frame. A fictitious acceleration, also known as the indirect term, must therefore be added to all other bodies in the system to compensate for the absence of motion of the primary. In this Research Note, we first stress that there is not one indirect term but as many indirect terms as there are bodies in the system that exert a gravitationa

Gmail’s new subscription management is here to declutter your inbox

With decades of online life behind us, many people are using years-old email addresses.

Meet the AI Fraud Fighters: A Deepfake Granny, Digital Bots and a YouTube Star

It was almost an hour into our Google Meet call. I was interviewing Kitboga, a popular YouTube scam baiter with nearly 3.7 million subscribers, known for humorously entrapping fraudsters in common scams while livestreaming. "I assume I'm talking to Evan Zimmer," he says with a mischievous glance, his eyes exposed without his trademark aviator sunglasses on. We were close to the end of our conversation when he realized that my image and audio could have been digitally altered to impersonate me t

TIL you can make "GIFs" with SVGs for GitHub README.md files

The moving image below is only 49Kb and has an incredibly high resolution. It's similar to a GIF but instead of showing moving images, it shows moving SVGs! The best part: Github supports these in their README.md files! Getting these to work involves asciinema and svg-term-cli. After uploading the asciinema you can use the tool to download a file that you can immediately click and drag into a README. It's something that I'm using extensively on bespoken. How it works? I was surpised to learn

Maxon puts the Forger sculpting app for iPad on life support

Maxon is sunsetting the Forger sculpting app for iPad to focus on the more comprehensive ZBrush iPadOS app it introduced last year. Forger will be removed from the App Store on September 10th, according to a message on Maxon’s website, and the app will be placed in a “Limited Maintenance Mode” that won’t receive any future updates, bug fixes, or changes.

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

Is it possible to play doom on an oscilloscope using only lissajous figures?

Getting a piece of electronics to run doom (1993) is a classic project in hobby electronics, and so far people have gotten doom to run on pretty much anything, including analog oscilloscopes. However, in all cases that I have seen, the only part of the oscilloscope that is really "running" doom is the CRT display, which is hooked directly to an external computer a la 90's game consoles.Meanwhile, people also have managed to get analog oscilloscopes to display some pretty extraordinary and dynami

10% Home Depot Promo Codes & Coupons | July 2025

Home Depot goes hard. The company pretty much invented the hardware superstore when it began in 1978, just by being so big. They inflated the neighborhood tool shop into a whole city of lumber, hammers, caulk, power saws, and big rolls of wire. I would know I’m in a Home Depot blindfolded, because of a distinct quality to the air—crisp and particulate, smelling like wood dust and paint and the oiled metal of power tools. The Home Depot smell is buried deep in my childhood, filed somewhere betwee

GM’s Cruise Cars Are Back on the Road in 3 US States—but Not for Ride-Hailing

Cruise robotaxis are back on the road … well, kind of. Though General Motors pulled the plug on its self-driving taxi business last year, the automaker has been quietly repurposing a few of the vehicles as it seeks to develop new driver-assistance technologies. This week, WIRED spotted a GM Bolt electric hatchback on the San Francisco–Oakland Bay Bridge and later saw a similar vehicle on Interstate 880 near Oakland. In each instance, the car was being driven by a human. But it held equipment on

Prakhar Khanna/ZDNET Huawei introduced the world's first tri-fold phone, the Mate XT Ultimate, in its home country late last year.
