The International Motorcycling Federation (FIM) and MotoGP are putting the MotoE electric bike world championship on hiatus following the 2025 season. The organizations cite a lack of viewership and an electric performance motorcycle market that "has not developed as expected."

While most enterprises lock down endpoints, harden networks, and scan for vulnerabilities, one of the riskiest vectors often slips through unmonitored: browser extensions.

DC Ends ‘Red Hood’ Comic After Writer’s Charlie Kirk Comments

gizmodo.com Justin Carter 2025-10-07 21:04:05

DC Comics canceled its new, mature-rated Red Hood comic just hours after it launched on September 10 because its writer made comments about the assassination of right-wing activist and Turning Point USA creator Charlie Kirk at Utah University. Red Hood writer Gretchen Felker-Martin made comments and joked on social media about Kirk’s death—which occurred on the same day as the comic’s launch.

Apple Watch Series 11, SE 3, and Ultra 3 Hands-On: Time for a Bigger Reboot?

gizmodo.com Raymond Wong 2025-10-07 21:39:16

Excuse the pun, but all of the air at the Steve Jobs Theater at Tuesday’s Apple Event was sucked up by the super-skinny iPhone Air. Not to say that the iPhone 17 Pros, especially in Cosmic Orange, didn’t get their fair share of oglers (it did), but it did feel like many attendees took a quick glance at the new Apple Watches and floated on by to get back to the iPhone Air.

Exploding Primordial Black Holes Could ‘Rewrite the History of the Universe’

It’s been a fantastic week for Stephen Hawking’s black hole theories. Yesterday, LIGO confirmed the famed physicist’s prediction about black hole mergers. Now, another team believes they’ve found a way to observe primordial black holes—cosmic behemoths that emerged not from the ashes of dying stars but from the chaos of the early universe. In a paper published September 9 in Physical Review Letters, a team of physicists make the bold prediction that, within the next decade, we will be able to w

The iPhone 17 looks great, but I’d still choose the Pixel 10 over it

Robert Triggs / Android Authority At first, I wasn’t sure how to feel about the iPhone 17. To me, all of the leaks pointed towards another year of the same old, same old. But then, Apple unveiled its base-level flagship, and it had some tricks up its sleeve. It gave the base iPhone 17 a 120Hz refresh rate, an updated chipset, and doubled its base storage — not to mention a 48MP ultrawide camera. And you know what? Those are all significant upgrades. They’ll make the iPhone 17 Apple’s best yet.

If you want a camera that has a capable zoom, shoots excellent RAW images and great 4K/30 fps video, and manages to fit in most pockets, the Sony RX100 VII is your best bet.

Apple’s faster MagSafe Charger can now charge other phones at 25W
