news.ycombinator.com Matthew S. Smith 2025-10-05 03:57:35

E-paper displays are prized for their readability and low power use, but they’ve long been dismissed as too slow for everyday computing. Modos, a two-person startup with open-hardware roots, thinks it has cracked part of that problem with a development kit capable of driving an e-paper display at refresh rates up to a record 75 hertz. The Modos Paper Monitor and Dev Kit, now available for crowdfunding on Crowd Supply, combines standard e-paper panels with an open source FPGA-based display cont

engadget.com Unknown 2025-10-05 19:25:51

It's been about three years since the last update to AirPods, the length of time Apple usually waits before major hardware upgrades. We expected some big jumps in the new AirPods, and Apple delivered. The Pro 3 brings more health-focused features to AirPods, including a heart rate monitor and calories-burned counter that can feed back to an iPhone or Apple Watch. It also boosted the audio experience itself, with a new design that mimics surround sound as well as two small earbuds possibly can.

Spotted ratfish are scaleless, rabbit-faced deep-sea fish, about two feet (61 centimeters) long, and native to the northeastern Pacific Ocean. As if that wasn’t a strange enough description, these distant shark cousins also feature teeth on their foreheads. While a number of marine animals, such as sharks, rays, and whale sharks, have external tooth-like structures called denticles, it turns out the spotted ratfish’s toothy features are straight-up true teeth, as true as the ones in your mouth.
