Scientists Intrigued to Discover That Human Brains Are Glowing Faintly

futurism.com Unknown 2025-08-23 18:00:19

Image by Getty / Futurim Developments Scientists have some exciting news: your brain is likely glowing, whether you can see it or not. The news comes from researchers at Algoma University in Ontario, who found evidence that the human brain, of all things, possesses luminescent properties. Essentially, they found that as the brain metabolizes energy, it releases super-faint traces of visible light. Called ultra-weak photon emissions (UPEs), the flashes of light are emitted when electrons break

Paramount May Not Be Done With ‘Transformers’ Movies Yet

After 2024’s Transformers One came and went, it’s been a question of whether we’d actually see the Autobots and Decepticons on the big screen. The answer now appears to be “yes,” and not just because Paramount’s still pretending that crossover with G.I. Joe is happening. According to Matt Belloni at Puck News, the studio is spinning up several Transformers movies. One is said to be helmed by One director Josh Cooley, and will be live-action.

Denmark’s Plan to Fight Deepfakes: Give Citizens Copyright to Their Own Likeness

Here’s a weird potential future: When you’re born, you are issued a birth certificate, a social security card, and a copyright. That possibility is emerging in Denmark, where officials are considering changes to the nation’s copyright laws to provide citizens with a right to their own likeness as a means of combating AI-generated deepfakes, according to The Guardian.

Staples Union & Scale FlexFit Desk Converter Review: Reliable Riser

The included keyboard rest is optional to install, though the whole thing is designed to work together. It's a little annoying. I wish you could roll the tray into the riser to hide it, which would go a long way in making the FlexFit look a little more elegant, and could also help with storage. You also can't adjust the height of the tray, so while I didn't have issues typing on a keyboard, I found my wrist cramping up a little when using my Apple Magic Trackpad because it was a little too low.
