Gas prices could rise due to the conflict with Iran. Alvaro Gonzalez/Getty Images Brent crude opened Thursday at $67.83 a barrel, down more than $13 from the high of $81 last week, after traders decided the Iran-Israel ceasefire will probably keep the Strait of Hormuz open. It follows US President Donald Trump delivering an all-caps message about oil prices on Monday, less than a day after US and Israeli forces struck three Iranian nuclear sites.

AI companies scored another victory in court this week. Meta on Wednesday won a motion for partial summary judgment in its favor in Kadrey v. Meta, a case brought by 13 authors alleging the company infringed on their copyright protections by illegally using their books to train its Llama AI models. The ruling comes two days after a similar victory for Claude maker Anthropic.

If you've noticed your TV and internet bills going up, you're not alone. Recent JD Power data shows that internet and TV bundles have increased for the first quarter of 2025. What's most surprising is that only unbundled Internet bills saw a slight decrease. Finding ways to cut back on monthly bills can feel nearly impossible, especially when there's an increase every few months. But it's possible.

45-hour voyage in replica canoe tests Paleolithic migration theory

Earlier this week, we reported on a Swedish archaeologist who spent the last three years sailing the fjords in a replica boat similar to those the Vikings may have used. Not to be outdone, Japanese researchers have followed suit, building their own seaworthy dugout canoe with Paleolithic-era tools to cross between Taiwan and Yonaguni Island, where one of the world’s strongest ocean currents, the Kuroshio, remains active.

13-inch Microsoft Surface Laptop review: A slightly worse version of a year-old PC

arstechnica.com Unknown 2026-03-08 00:27:34

Microsoft's new 13-inch Surface Laptop is an odd one. It's inarguably a step down in every respect from last year's 13.8-inch Surface Laptop. But it's also too good (and too expensive) to be considered a replacement for the Surface Laptop Go, the company's perennially overpriced and underspecced entry-level laptop. It's cheaper than last year's Surfaces, but mostly because Microsoft gave those devices a de facto price hike by killing the entry-level configurations of those PCs. We're left with

Book authors made the wrong arguments in Meta AI training case, judge says

Soon after a landmark ruling deemed that when Anthropic copied books to train artificial intelligence models, it was a "transformative" fair use, another judge has arrived at the same conclusion in a case pitting book authors against Meta. But that doesn't necessarily mean the judges are completely in agreement, and that could soon become a problem for not just Meta, but other big AI companies celebrating the pair of wins this week.

Here are a few things to keep in mind when you go shopping for outdoor lights. Power: For most outdoor lighting, you need to run a cable to a power outlet, so you will want an outdoor socket. If you don’t have an outdoor socket, it’s usually a pretty cheap and quick job for an electrician to install a weatherproof one. Just be aware that large power adapters and awkwardly shaped plugs will not fit in outdoor sockets, so you will likely also want some kind of weatherproof box. I like the large D
