2025 Morgan Plus Four review: Apparently, they do still make them like this

arstechnica.com Unknown 2025-12-13 11:24:41

Lift up either side of the new Morgan Plus Four’s engine decklid and no carburetors or velocity stacks materialize on the engine of this otherwise eminently classic-looking car. The latest generation of Plus Four returns to the American market this year for the first time since 2005. But to make it happen, Morgan spent five years homologating the little roadster with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, technically as a replica. That's why, underneath the left-hand hood, a hilari

“Red meat allergy” from tick bites is spreading both in US and globally

Hours after savoring that perfectly grilled steak on a beautiful summer evening, your body turns traitor, declaring war on the very meal you just enjoyed. You begin to feel excruciating itchiness, pain, or even swelling that can escalate to the point of requiring emergency care. The culprit isn’t food poisoning—it’s the fallout from a tick bite you may have gotten months earlier and didn’t even notice. This delayed allergic reaction is called alpha-gal syndrome.

More than two hard disks in DOS

news.ycombinator.com Posted On 2025-12-13 23:19:27

Investigating the rather odd behavior of the Microsoft OS/2 1.21 disk driver led me to Compaq and their EXTDISK.SYS driver. While experimenting with various setups, I realized that DOS versions older than 5.0 do not support more than two hard disks exposed by the system’s BIOS, and will in fact quite likely hang early during boot-up if there are “too many” hard disks. This seems to have been one of the many things that “everyone knew” back in the day, similar to the fact that DOS versions older

It’s become increasingly common for OpenAI’s ChatGPT to be accused of contributing to users’ mental health problems.

Fitbit promised better sleep tracking with new update, but users say it got worse

Kaitlyn Cimino / Android Authority TL;DR Fitbit has updated its algorithm for more accurate sleep tracking. The new algorithm now accounts for awake times better, supposedly rendering more accurate data about different phases. However, users have complained of increased sensitivity, resulting in their devices capturing shorter sleep durations than the actual time.
