A New Nova Just Appeared in the Night Sky – You Can See It with the Naked Eye

For the last year or so, astronomers and sky lovers have been waiting for the explosion of T Coronae Borealis. The system is a notorious recurring nova, which is expected to go any moment now, but still has not. So, while astronomy can be a cruel mistress, making us wait, it can also be a generous mistress since there is also a brand new and unexpected nova in the night sky that you can see. Its name is V462 Lupi. A nova is a stellar object that suddenly brightens in the night sky, usually to a

'The Bear': Here's How to Watch Season 4 of the Hit Food Drama

Whether you call it a comedy or a drama, The Bear is about to let it rip once again. The Emmy-winning series, which represents the food service industry with urgent authenticity, follows Chef Carmen "Carmy" Berzatto (Jeremy Allen White) as he follows his mission to transform his brother's sandwich spot into a fine-dining, Michelin-starred restaurant.

The 560-pound Twitter sign met a fiery end in a Nevada desert

Earlier this year, the 12-foot tall, 560-pound Twitter logo that used to sit atop the company's San Francisco headquarters was auctioned off for $34,000. Now, we know who bought it and what became of the sign: it was blown up in the Nevada desert as part of an elaborate stunt to promote an online marketplace app. In some ways, "Larry," as the blue Twitter bird was known to former employees, met an end that mirrors the death of the social media platform it once represented: an explosive, expensi

US Streetlights Are Turning Purple

American cities and towns started switching their streetlights from sodium lamps to LEDs about 15 years ago, which changed the color of many nighttime roads from yellowish orange to bright white. But lately an odd new nocturnal color has been spotted across the nation—and the globe. Anecdotal reports of purple-looking streetlights have been popping up since early 2021 in states including Florida, Utah, Texas and Massachusetts, as well as in Canada and Ireland. This phenomenon might seem weird b

Google surprisingly brings back Snapseed with major 3.0 update on iPhone

Google today surprisingly released a major 3.0 update for Snapseed that entirely redesigns the photo editing app on iPhone and iPad. Given the lack of major updates in several years, it seemed that Google abandoned Snapseed. Since the app worked locally and has no server-side component, it seemed like the company was happy to let the beloved editor linger. The last notable update to Snapseed for iOS was in 2021, with very minor updates in 2023 and 2024. Google today released version 3.0.0 of S

Building semiconductor plants in the US takes twice as long, costs twice as much as in Taiwan

The big picture: The U.S. and many Western markets are simply not as efficient as Taiwan in building semiconductor fabrication (fab) operations. According to reports, 18 new fab construction projects are planned for 2025 alone, making it crucial to address these challenges. The West must streamline fab construction processes to catch up with the well-established semiconductor ecosystems of Taiwan and other Asian manufacturing hubs. TSMC encountered significant challenges when it began construct

10 Years Later, The Order: 1886 Is Still Stupid, Compelling, and Kinda Fun

Since 2006, PlayStation has prided itself on big, cinematic first-party titles that justify your console purchase, and when they hit, they hit. Over the years, several internal studios have delivered blockbuster franchises like God of War, Marvel’s Spider-Man, and The Last of Us. But spare a thought for the ones that didn’t make the cut: for whatever reason, they just didn’t resonate or hit desired benchmarks, and now remain as odd one-offs with a niche fanbase that loves it for what it was and
