Rita El Khoury / Android Authority The smart ring arena is evolving quickly, but Oura still sets the pace. Its current-generation ring is polished, feature-packed, and impressively reliable. Yet, no device line is immune to the itch for something more. With new rivals entering the scene and wearables advancing rapidly, now feels like the right time to think about what’s next.

Changing one gene can restore some tissue regeneration to mice

arstechnica.com Unknown 2025-08-24 21:09:26

Axolotls, a salamander species originating in Mexico, can regrow pretty much everything from severed limbs, through eyes and parts of brain, to the spinal cord. Mammals, though, have mostly lost this ability somewhere along their evolutionary path. Regeneration persisted, in a limited number of tissues, in just a few mammalian species like rabbits or goats. “We were trying to learn how certain anima

Christopher Eccleston’s ‘Doctor Who’ Regeneration Remains One of the Show’s Best

gizmodo.com James Whitbrook 2025-09-06 17:00:53

Twenty years ago this week, the first season of the revived era of Doctor Who came to an end with “The Parting of the Ways,” as did the tenure of Christopher Eccleston’s Ninth Doctor. Ready to sacrifice it all to stop the Daleks, the Ninth Doctor’s final moments remain a vital moment in Doctor Who history. It was the first time in decades since Doctor Who had asked its audience to trust in the magic of the series’ defining trick to survival and re-invention: the magic of regeneration itself. Ec

CarPlay’s ‘next generation’ is already looking better than we thought

9to5mac.com Ryan Christoffel 2025-09-10 13:46:37

CarPlay’s evolution has in several ways been a disappointment since the “next generation” of CarPlay was first previewed in 2022. But all of a sudden, in the span of a mere month, CarPlay’s future looks brighter than it has in years—in part because of a redefinition of what that future will be. The next generation of CarPlay is no longer just CarPlay Ultra CarPlay’s previously announced “next generation” seemed like it would never arrive. But now, it’s finally here—with a twist.
