Q1. Did you see Microsoft’s announcement? A. Yes, thanks, you can stop emailing to ask! Microsoft’s Chetan Nayak was even kind enough to give me a personal briefing a few weeks ago. Yesterday I did a brief interview on this for the BBC’s World Business Report, and I also commented for MIT Technology Review. Q2. What is a topological qubit? A. It’s a special kind of qubit built using nonabelian anyons, which are excitations that can exist in a two-dimensional medium, behaving neither as fermio

Star Wars-Style Fog Collectors Could Provide Water to the World’s Driest Cities

gizmodo.com Margherita Bassi 2025-06-07 20:00:28

With less than 0.04 inches of rainfall each year, cities in Chile’s barren Atacama Desert—one of the driest places in the world—collect their water from ancient underground water sources. Now, researchers have identified another simple method that could help address water scarcity. An international team of researchers in Chile has tested the viability of a water-collection method that could be straight out of Dune: fog harvesting.

I Tested the Oppo Find N5, and This Is What a Foldable Should Feel Like

cnet.com Abrar Al-Heeti 2025-06-08 02:00:00

The Oppo Find N5 appears to have achieved what foldables have long strived for, at least from a design perspective: It's ridiculously thin and feels like a normal phone when closed, with the added perk of a spacious, (almost) crease-less internal screen that's easy to navigate. Oppo's latest foldable, unveiled Thursday, is being marketed as "the world's thinnest book-style foldable when closed." And indeed, it measures only 8.93mm thick when closed – which, for reference, is just slightly thick

ProtoArc XKM01 CaseUp Combo Review: A Reliable Portable Workstation

wired.com Brenda Stolyar 2025-06-08 03:30:00

The mouse is perfectly adequate too. It's slim but provides enough palm support that my hand doesn't feel like it's cramping up. The scroll wheel and buttons are smooth and responsive. After a short time, I noticed a strange, squeaky noise coming from the left side whenever I'd click. It's not always there, but it's slightly annoying whenever it comes back. Like the keyboard, it charges via USB-C but has a slightly longer battery life of up to 200 days (standby time). The stand is super adjusta
