Two years later, the interstellar comet 2I/Borisov became the second ISO ever observed. And on July 1st, 2025, the Asteroid Terrestrial-impact Last Alert System (ATLAS) in Rio Hurtado detected a third interstellar object in our Solar System, the comet now known as 3I/ATLAS (or C/2025 N1 ATLAS).

Rapidly intensifying Hurricane Erin becomes historic storm due to strengthening

arstechnica.com Unknown 2025-11-16 05:50:31

After several days of working its way across the open and at times hostile Atlantic Ocean this week, Hurricane Erin found more favorable conditions and exploded in intensity on Friday night. Shortly before noon on Saturday, the National Hurricane Center declared that Erin had reached Category 5 status, the most powerful kind of hurricane. This determination is based on sustained winds, which were measured by a US Air Force Hurricane Hunter aircraft on Saturday at 160 mph. There is some good ne

Why I like it: The Grayl GeoPress is among my best outdoor gear purchases.

OnePlus will limit bootloader unlocking, but it’s not all bad news

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-11-19 02:00:10

Joe Maring / Android Authority TL;DR OnePlus is placing new restrictions on bootloader unlocking. It requires filling out an application form and limits the number of requests to one every 30 days. Thankfully, these limitations only apply to Chinese users (so far) and only on devices running at least ColorOS 16 based on Android 16. Android has evolved significantly in the last decade, and one noticeable shift has been in the decline of custom development in Android. Custom ROMs or mods are f

Porsche’s best daily driver 911? The 2025 Carrera GTS T-Hybrid review.

arstechnica.com Unknown 2025-11-19 05:00:44

Porsche 911 enthusiasts tend to be obsessive about their engines. Some won't touch anything that isn't air-cooled, convinced that everything went wrong when emissions and efficiency finally forced radiators into the car. Others love the "Mezger" engines; designed by engineer Hans Mezger, they trace their roots to the 1998 Le Mans-winning car, and no Porschephile can resist the added shine of a motorsports halo. I'm quite sure none of them will feel the same way about the powertrain in the new 9

Any change to any product would stir overreaction whether it be positive or negative, and some time later, that same product would just be quotidian, and the next release would be the problem of the world or the cure to all ills.
