TIL you can make "GIFs" with SVGs for GitHub README.md files

The moving image below is only 49Kb and has an incredibly high resolution. It's similar to a GIF but instead of showing moving images, it shows moving SVGs! The best part: Github supports these in their README.md files! Getting these to work involves asciinema and svg-term-cli. After uploading the asciinema you can use the tool to download a file that you can immediately click and drag into a README. It's something that I'm using extensively on bespoken. How it works?

‘The Institute’ Is a Solid Stephen King Adaptation

gizmodo.com Cheryl Eddy 2026-03-07 03:00:52

Stephen King is easily the most-adapted horror author; his books are so popular, many of the biggest ones have been adapted multiple times. Right now, there’s both a Carrie series and a feature take on The Stand in the works, and Edgar Wright’s The Running Man just dropped its first trailer. With the same titles seemingly caught in Hollywood’s revolving door, it can be tempting to forget King is still regularly publishing new stories. That’s one reason The Institute is such an intriguing new ar

Popular UV Manicure Lamps Might Be Frying Your Skin at the Molecular Level

gizmodo.com Ed Cara 2026-03-07 03:20:56

UV LED nail lamps are very trendy right now, allowing people to quickly wrap up their manicures at the salon or in the comfort of their own home. But it now appears that these products can come at a potentially serious cost. Scientists in Argentina led the study, which examined how the UV dose emitted by a modern manicure lamp affected common skin molecules. They found that just a few minutes of exposure altered these molecules in ways that could be harmful to skin. Though the long-term health

Tiny portable thumb drives are a great way to move important files, but they usually have one or both of two unfortunate shortcomings — they’re either fragile, small in capacity, or both. Not surprisingly, a USB-C thumb drive that conquers both of those issues comes from Seagate — the remarkable Ultra Compact 1TB portable SSD, which is just $80 right now in Amazon Prime Day Deal list.

OnePlus Buds 4 Review: These Wireless Earbuds Have Almost Everything

Not everyone is an audiophile, and that’s okay. But once you’ve seen (or heard, I guess) the light of getting a little bit more than usual, it’s hard to go back. So what exactly is “a little bit more” when it comes to wireless earbuds? It’s not always easy to identify, but you’ll know it when you hear it, and the OnePlus Buds 4, while not looking like it on the surface, are definitely delivering that something extra.

Record-Setting Dark Matter Detector Comes Up Empty—and That’s Good News

gizmodo.com Gayoung Lee 2026-03-07 03:35:40

WIMPs (weakly interacting massive particles) are one of the most serious contenders for dark matter—the “missing” mass supposedly constituting 85% of our universe. Given its elusiveness, dark matter tests the patience and creativity of physicists. But the latest results from LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ), the South Dakota-based detector, may have brought scientists a small step closer to catching WIMPs in action. In a recent Physical Review Letters paper, scientists analyzed 280 days’ worth of data from LUX-

AGI may be impossible to define, and that’s a multibillion-dollar problem

arstechnica.com Unknown 2026-03-07 03:50:29

When is an AI system intelligent enough to be called artificial general intelligence (AGI)? According to one definition reportedly agreed upon by Microsoft and OpenAI, the answer lies in economics: When AI generates $100 billion in profits. This arbitrary profit-based benchmark for AGI perfectly captures the definitional chaos plaguing the AI industry. In fact, it may be impossible to create a universal definition of AGI, but few people with money on the line will admit it. Over this past year

Meet the America Party, Elon Musk’s Harebrained Third-Party Scheme

Elon Musk soft-launched a third party over the weekend, and so far, the billionaire seems to be manifesting his “America Party” into existence. Hard-launching the party, which he first posted about through a poll on X, would involve filing official paperwork, such as Federal Election Commission forms, and signing up to petition in individual states. Musk has not done those things yet. What Musk has done, however, is open the door for what could be the most well-funded attempt ever at launching
