gizmodo.com Margherita Bassi 2025-12-07 16:50:25

The ancient estate of Villa Romana del Casale in Sicily is known for featuring some of the most beautiful examples of Roman mosaics preserved in their original location. As if the site wasn’t already famous enough, researchers and students have uncovered a mosaic of sandals so modern-looking they could be straight out of a Havaianas commercial. The sandals, part of a larger mosaic decorating the floors of the villa’s southern thermal area, consist of two pale flip-flops with slightly elongated

bleepingcomputer.com Unknown 2025-12-07 21:18:34

The authorities tracked the crypto as the cybercriminals moved it repeatedly across virtual currency exchange accounts, depositing and withdrawing it to obfuscate the trace. Eventually, the amount was frozen when it reached a cooperating exchange. The action was made possible thanks to evidence collected by the U.S.

With this final change, T-Mobile now charges taxes and fees on everything

Joe Maring / Android Authority TL;DR T-Mobile has removed tax and fee-inclusive pricing from all new 5G Home Internet plans as of August 6th. Existing customers are grandfathered in, though it’s certainly possible that T-Mobile will do what it can to get its customer base to slowly switch away to newer plans. This move effectively ends T-Mobile’s inclusive pricing policy for new customers across all services. T-Mobile introduced brand new mobile plans earlier this summer, and with it came a

iOS 26 brings back the iPhone calculator’s clear button

iOS 18 featured a major redesign to the Calculator app, including fancy features like Math Notes. Those changes included adding a back button to the keypad, replacing the traditional C/AC button. This was so frustrating for some, the real hard-core Calculator users I guess, that The Atlantic published an entire column when iOS 18 shipped, decrying the button’s removal. Apple has seemingly taken those complaints onboard. With iOS 26, the Calculator once again has a dedicated C/AC button. Apple

7 things the Galaxy S26 Pro needs to be my next Android phone

Ryan Haines / Android Authority Samsung’s phone lineup hasn’t changed much since 2020, when the Galaxy S20 series set the precedent of a base, Plus, and Ultra model every year. There have been some additions, such as the more budget-friendly FE variants or this year’s thinner Galaxy S25 Edge, but by and large, the formula has been the same for the last five years. That could change in 2026, as Samsung may pivot to a Galaxy S26 Pro, Edge, and Ultra. If that is the case, the phone I’d be most in

How a once-tiny research lab helped Nvidia become a $4 trillion-dollar company

When Bill Dally joined Nvidia’s research lab in 2009, it employed only about a dozen people and was focused on ray tracing, a rendering technique used in computer graphics. That once-small research lab now employs more than 400 people, who have helped transform Nvidia from a video game GPU startup in the nineties to a $4 trillion-dollar company fueling the artificial intelligence boom. Now, the company’s research lab has its sights set on developing the tech needed to power robotics and AI.
