The curious case of Russia’s charm offensive with NASA this week

arstechnica.com Unknown 2025-08-03 06:20:36

Although NASA and its counterpart in Russia, Roscosmos, continue to work together on a daily basis, the leaders of the two organizations have not held face-to-face meetings since the middle of the first Trump administration, back in October 2018. A lot has changed in the nearly eight years since then, including the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the rocky departure of Roscosmos leader Dmitry Rogozin in 2022 who was subsequently dispatched to the front lines of the war, several changes in NASA lea

You Should Get All Those Switch 2 Accessories Now Before They Get Even More Expensive

gizmodo.com Kyle Barr 2025-08-03 18:01:34

The situation surrounding Trump tariffs hasn’t eased its pressure on Nintendo. Even as the Switch 2 has become one of the fastest-selling consoles ever, the Mario maker said that select Switch 2 accessories may see price “adjustments” starting Aug 3. Not only that, but the original Switch and Switch OLED could cost more going forward. I guess we shouldn’t say we told you so, but even we didn’t expect to witness original Switch models selling for $40 or $50 more than before. In a news post, Nint

Tim Cook: iOS 26 is ‘by far’ Apple’s most popular beta ever

9to5mac.com Ryan Christoffel 2025-08-04 06:37:18

Apple reported huge quarterly earnings yesterday, and on the call with investors, CEO Tim Cook gave an update on how popular iOS 26, iPadOS 26, and macOS Tahoe are proving thus far. Whatever your opinion of the new Liquid Glass design coming in iOS 26 and Apple’s other updates, there’s no doubt it’s sparked a lot of interest. As compelling as new features might be for your iPhone, iPad, or Mac, there’s nothing like a fresh design to spur upgrades. And according to CEO Tim Cook, Apple has seen

The Space Station’s Russian Segment Won’t Stop Leaking Air

gizmodo.com Passant Rabie 2025-08-05 10:10:18

A pesky air leak on the International Space Station (ISS) just won’t quit. Although the crew hoped they had sealed the last crack on the Russian module, long-term observations revealed that the ISS is still leaking air. During a recent press conference, a Roscosmos official told reporters that recent attempts to fix the leak have slowed down the rate of air leaving the space station but that it’s not yet completely sealed. “The leak is ongoing,” Russian news agency TASS reported. “We continue o

Ford is set to reveal more information about its upcoming low-cost electric vehicles at an event in Kentucky on August 11. And the company is talking a very big game: CEO Jim Farley said Wednesday that the announcement is “a Model T moment” for Ford. Farley made the comments after Ford revealed its electric vehicle division posted a loss of around $1.3 billion in the second quarter of 2025.

When a new member arrives at the Signal Processing Club, this is what they find at the club gate: I/Q signals. Perhaps a secret plot to keep most people out of the party? Some return from here to try another area (e.g., machine learning, which pays more and is easier to understand but less interesting than signal processing).
