Move Aside, Chatbots: AI Humanoids Are Here

wired.com Michael Calore 2025-09-20 16:45:20

This week, WIRED learned that OpenAI is ramping up its efforts in robotics—specifically, by hiring researchers who work on AI systems for humanoid robots. Humanoids, robots built to resemble us and perform daily tasks, were famous for their clumsiness just a few years ago. Senior writer Will Knight tells us about how that's rapidly changing on today's episode cohosted by Michael Calore and senior correspondent Kylie Robison.

History of the Gem Desktop Environment

news.ycombinator.com Nemanja Trifunovic 2025-09-22 05:55:28

Sometime in 1988, the keyboard of my Sinclair ZX Spectrum 48K was finally broken beyond repair, and I asked my parents for a 128K version of the same computer. Instead, they surprised me with an Atari 520 ST. It was my first real-world experience with a graphical desktop environment, complete with windows, icons, and a mouse. The ST was an amazing machine, not only compared to my poor old “Speccy” and similar cheap home computers, but even to the IBM PC compatibles in my school’s comp-sci lab,

Acronis True Image costs performance when not used

news.ycombinator.com View All Posts Brucedawson 2025-10-29 06:00:14

Over two years ago I installed Acronis True Image for Crucial in order to migrate my data to a new SSD I had just purchased. It worked. I then left True Image installed “just in case”, and what harm could that possibly cause. Well, funny you should ask. I recently noticed that whenever I plugged or unplugged my external monitor Explorer.exe would consume a lot of CPU time – dozens of seconds of it. It was enough CPU time to make my computer noticeably sluggish until things calmed down which co

Researchers Find Strange Link Between Marathon Running and Cancer

gizmodo.com Ed Cara 2025-11-10 22:50:30

Some of the most physically fit people in the world may have a unique health risk. New research uncovers a possible link between marathon running and colorectal cancer. Oncologists at the Inova Schar Cancer Institute in Virginia conducted the study, which examined the colons of relatively young people who had run several long-distance races. They found these runners had a much higher rate of having potentially dangerous adenomas (a type of polyp) than would be expected for their age. Though the

The Original History Behind the Mandalorians’ Wars Against the Jedi

gizmodo.com James Whitbrook 2025-11-15 06:39:21

The world of Mandalore has a long and complicated history in Star Wars, and perhaps even more complicated than the story of its peoples’ wars among themselves are their wars united against a common foe: the Galactic Republic, and the Jedi Order that served it. But outside of allusions and artwork, the story of what defined these conflicts has gone largely untouched in contemporary Star Wars continuity, as the focus returned to Mandalore’s restoration in the post-Imperial era. In the former canon

5 file management apps you should use instead of Files by Google

Andy Walker / Android Authority Every Android smartphone needs a file explorer, and for Pixel smartphones and many others, the default option is Files by Google. This free, lightweight app offers essential file management features, and its clean design makes viewing content in folders or categories quick and easy.

Invasion S3 trailer hints the series is finally finding its stride

Chances are you haven't been watching Invasion, an Apple TV+ sci-fi drama overshadowed to some extent by two of the streamer's other sci-fi shows, Silo and Foundation. Yes, Invasion has received mixed reviews for its ponderous pacing (especially in the first season). Even its fans may admit to having something of a love/hate relationship with the show. But the cinematography is gorgeous, and the writers are clearly trying to explore some ambitious themes, with variable success. Apple TV+ just re

When to make LODs: Understanding model costs

When to make LODs Jason Booth 3 min read · Dec 26, 2021 -- Listen Share Understanding model costs I’m always amazed at how often I hear people talk about “poly counts” in modern rendering, as if that’s even a thing. But lore has a way of sticking around forever, far past its point of being useful. And quite frankly, I’m constantly seeing artwork created in substandard ways because of this lore.
