The iMac is due for a redesign, and a recent Apple patent hints at an all-in-one desktop made from a single sheet of curved glass. Interestingly, the patent also accounts for potentially built-in keyboards and touchpads, and also the possibility of using the device as a display dock for a MacBook. The patent was originally filed with the U.S. Patent and Trade Office in May last year and is titled Electronic Device With Glass Housing Member. In the abstract, the futuristic AIO is described as an electronic device [that] may include a glass housing member that includes adidas samba og an upper portion defining a display area, a lower portion defin yeezy slide ing an input area, and a transition portion joining the upper portion and lower portion and defining a continuous, curved surface between the upper portion and the air max 1 lower portion. Or in laymans terms, a display encased in glass up top, an area for a keyboard or trackpad below, and a continuous, curved transitional space between the two. https://gizmodo/patent-hints-the-apple-watch-may-one-day-track-parkinso-1840244841 The patent itself is pretty broadly defined鈥攊n some instances, it proposes the trackpad and keyboard are built-in, in others theyre separate. it should be understood that the following descriptions are not intended to limit the embodiments to one preferred embodiment, the patent reads.

As we venture deeper into the era of GMOs and synthetic life, it critical that we develop safegua adidas originals rds to prevent the contami skecher nation of natural systems. To that end, researchers have devised a clever solution to ensure this never happens 鈥?at least in GM bacteria. The so air force 1 lution, the details of which now appear in two separate Nature papers here and here , shows that a strain of E. coli bacteria can be engineered to be dependent on synthetic nutrients. The bacteria cannot self-produce these essential compounds, and they don ;t exist in nature. In a controlled lab setting, the bacteria would be replenished with these artificial nutrients; should the bacteria escape to the wild, however, it would have no way of surviving on its own. Writing in Discovery Magazine, Kari Lydersen tells us more: In separate projects, teams led by Yale molecular biologist Farren Isaacs and Harvard molecular geneticist George Church have genetically modified E. coli so that it is totally dependent on synthetic amino acids. And in both cases that need is built in to multiple parts of the bacteria genome 鈥?49 times in the Harvard study 鈥?so that the likelihood that the bacteria would evolve to overcome the restriction is unlikely. And both strains showed an undetectably small escape rate 鈥?the number of E. coli able to survive without being fed the synthetic amino acid.

Scientists were able to coax local bacteria into cleaning up a polluted aquifer by injecting a safe, naturally occurring chemical into the water, according to a new study. A group of chemicals called chlorinated ethenes, once used as industrial solvents and cleaners, pollute groundwater around the world to this day, and theyre es uggs skor pecially hard to break down. As researchers continue to hunt for ways to remove them from the environment, they realized that a group of bacteria can partially break down the chemical but gets stuck before finishing the job. One team in Spain was able to decontaminate an aquifer just by adding lactic acid a common, sour-tasting chemical that appears in fermented milk, pickles, skincare treatments, and many other familiar products . This approach of removing a pollutant from the environment is called biostimulaton鈥攕timulating the bacteria already found in the wild to do the cleanup for you. The researchers cited plenty of studies that showed organohalide-respiring bacteria could break down chlorinated ethenes in the lab, but few studies actually applied the method at larger scales in the real world. The researchers focused on an indust yeezy 350 rial site in Barcelona that had contaminated an aquifer with chlorinated ethenes. First, they collected groundwater from the area to create microcosm adidas samba og s of the local microbes. Then they added sodium lactate to some of the collected batches.

In 2013, Peter Davison, Colin Baker, and a handful of other Doctor Who stars teamed up to produce one of the silliest outings Who has ever seen鈥?The Five ish Doctors Reboot, a half-hour parody short about the classic Doctors trying to get in on all the action of the modern-day juggernaut that the show has become. Its a fun, goofy time, and while a follow-up is unlikely, its apparently not entirely out of the question. Thats according to Den of Geek, which recently posted an in-depth interview with the Sixth Doctor, Colin Baker. Its a free-wheeling chat about religion, the Doctor, and the possibility of reappearing on the show. That conversation then, naturally, turns to The Five ish Doctors, an experience Baker clearly still has fond m nike air force emories of. https://gizmodo/classic-doctor-who-actors-try-to-join-the-special-in-a-1470442008 That was lovely doing that, Baker said.

Nobody really likes getting blood drawn. Best case, its painless and youre out of the doctors office quickly. But then there are those instances where you end up killing an afternoon at the clinic, only to have an intern stab your arm in five different places before hitting a vein. A new DARPA-sponsored company would like replace needles and make blood testing way more convenient in one fell swoop. Tasso Inc., an affiliate of the University of Wisconsin-Madison, has just received a $3 million federal grant to continue developing a pingpong salomon xt ball-sized disposable device t salomon zapatillas hat allows users to painlessly administer their own blood tests in just two minutes. Rather than puncturing a vein, when the user holds this device against his or her skin, it creates a slight vacuum that immediately starts to pull blood from many microscopic open channels called c mizuno volleyballschuhe apillaries. During the process, capillary action鈥攖he same physics that causes water to wick up paper鈥攂eckons blood into an attached collection container. The device can currently extract about 0.15 cubic centimeters of blood, enough for most routine lab analyses, including cholesterol, infection, cancer cells and blood sugar tests. The DARPA grant will fund research aimed at designing preservatives that can stabilize a blood sample for up to 1 week at 140 degrees Fahrenheit, enabling users to send blood in for analysis without the hassle of rush-delivering it on ice.

Earlier today, a volcano near the city of Kagoshima in Japan erupted, spewing lava and hurtling rocks air force 1 nearly two miles away. The volcano is just 30 miles from the Sendai nuclear plant, but officials says theres no immediate cause for concern. The blast happened in Kagoshima Prefecture at 6:56 p.m. local time. No reports of injuries have been reported, but officials with Japans Meteorological Agency have cordoned off the area, expanding an existing no-entry zone around the volcano to a 1.2 mile 2 km radius. Officials have upgraded the volcanic alert from level two to three, so the mountain is completely off-limits. https:/ hoka trekkingschuhe /youtube/watch v=xoeWPrc-4Hw Dramatic video of the eruption showed rocks and smo salomon zapatillas ke billowing out from the crater, as lava spewed down the mountains slopes.

So, I was excited that Hasbro was releasing Dungeons 038; Dragons: Adventure Begins, a board game designed to help bring new players into the fold. While does succeed in representing the world of Dungeons 038; Dragons, it fails in capturing the spirit of the game. Dungeons 038; Dragons: Adventure Begins from Hasbro聽is a 2-4 player cooperative board game where you travel through a series of dungeon boards to fight the boss waiting for yeezy you at the end. Each of the four bosses come with their own story and mini-bosses that await the players at various spots along the way. Players take on the role of one of four her adidas samba adidas oes and make their way through the lands of Neverwinter, encountering obstacles, defeating monsters, and picking up items to help in attacks and defense. They also take turns playing the Dungeon Master, which I felt was an excellent way to give everyone a turn behind the wheel. https://gizmodo/5-expert-tips-to-build-a-great-tabletop-rpg-character-1842844215 The game recreates some of the trappings of Dungeons 038; Dragons, albeit on a f adidas sambarose ar simpler level.

Its easy to hate plastic recycling in the U.S.鈥攅ven for the most conscious consumer. Its not because we dont think there should be a circular economy that would reroute plastic items away from landfills. Its because the U.S. recycling system is broken and complicated. According to a new analysis, we are recycling less than we ever have. Since the 1970s, oil companies have known that recycling wasnt a real solution to reducing plastic waste. But they heavily promoted the message that individual choices to recycle mattered, because higher demand for plastic means more profits for Big Oil. Companies are still pushing the lie that recycling can solve the plastics crisis Bill Nye is even helping , and our o yeezy slide ceans continue to fill with trash. nike dunk high Now theres more evidence that our recycling system is ineffective. This week, Beyond Plastics, a nationwide project in Bennington College w adidas yeezy orking to eliminate plastic pollution, and environmental nonprofit Last Beach Cleanup reported that the U.S.s already measly rate of recycling has decreased in the last few years. According to their analysis, hardly any plastic waste was recycled last year. The organizations collected data from the National Academy of Sciences, which found that only about 6% of plastic items were recycled in 2021. Thats down from the 8.7% reported by the EPA back in 2018. And that low rate isnt just the result of consumers being lazy: Even when we put all our items in the proper bins, more than 80% of that plastic will Dlip Asus Zephyrus Review:聽Has the Age of Powerful and Convenient Gaming Laptops Finally Arrived

To coincide with the l chanclas yeezy aunch of the Nintendo Switch Online service which included a bunch of classic 8-bit games as part of the subscription, Nintendo also released a pair of NES gamepad shaped Joy-Cons to round out the retro experience. So putting two and two together, a recent Nintendo FCC filing for a wireless Super Nintendo controller hints that 16-bit titles might finally be en route for the online service as well. https://gizmodo/it-really-was-easy-to-make-my-old-snes-controller-wirel-1828523571 As first spotted and shared on the Rese adidas samba adidas tera forums, Nintendo recently filed for an FCC product ID for a new wireless Bluetooth gamepad.

Believe it or not, Disneys software for kids used to be top-notch. In the early 2000s there were no bizarre CoCoMelon videos on YouTube or hundreds of phone-based apps to educate younger users, but there was high-quality edutainment software, and Disney as well as several others excelled at reaching the little demographic.

KB Gear Interactives Disney SketchBoard debuted in 2000 alongside Disneys accompanying creative suite Mag air max 1 ic Artist Studio. Billed as the animation station for kids, it was a one-of-a-kind alternative to pricey graphic tablets marketed toward children.

The U.S. government may be in partial shutdown mode, but operations to configure instruments critical to NASAs InSight mission on Mars are right on schedule鈥攁nd things are going swimmingly, as the latest mission update attests. Our last update from the InSight mission came on December 20 following the probes successful deployment of the SEIS instrument, or Seismic Experiment for Interior Structure, onto the Martian surface. The configuration of this hexagonal-shaped device is still ongoing, but an update from the SEIS team shows things are proceeding as planned. Over the last several weeks, missio asics sneaker n engineers have leveled the seismometer, manipulated the cable connecting InSight to the device, and鈥攎ost importantly鈥攂alanced three of the instruments six internal seismic sensors, while also confirming their functionality. Once SEIS is up and running, it will scan for seismic vibrat yeezy ions, offering a glimpse i asics gel nto the Red Planets internal activity. The hexagonal device rests passively on the Martian surface, and a tether connects it to the InSight lander. SEIS should be able to detect the slightest vibrations, including those caused by Marsquakes or the thumps of a meteorite impact. Once this important data is transmitted back to Earth, scientists will gain a better understanding of the material that first formed the rocky planets of the Solar System, and possibly learn if liquid water or plumes of active volcanoes lie underneath the Martian surface.

For example, job candidate screening algorithms may automatically reject names that sound like they belong to nonwhite people, while facial recognition software is often much worse at recognizing women or nonwhite faces than it is at recognizing white male faces.

Around 36 million years ago, an asteroid smashed into what is now the Canadian province of Newfoundland and Labrador. New research suggests that, for a brief time, the temperature at the point of impact exceeded 4,300 degrees F 2,370 C , making it the hottest temperature known to have occurred on Earth. Researchers from Curtin University in Perth, Australia and Western University in London, Ontario, have used the presence of cubic zirconia鈥攁 diamond-like crystal鈥攖o infer the temperature of the ancient asteroid strike. In the immediate moments following impact, temperatures reached an awe inspiring 2,370 degrees C, or 4,298 F, or roughly half the temperature of the surface of our Sun.

Valves anticipated app designed to let you stream games and movies from the Steam platform to your iPhone or iPad has been rejected by Apple, despite the company approving it earlier in the month. As with Valves Steam Link box, the app would have allowed you to stream games from your PC directly to your phone or iPad鈥攑rovided theyre on the same network. According to Ars Technica, Valve received approval from Apple for its Steam Link app on Monday, May 7. The Steam Link app would allow users to stream games purchased through Valves Steam marketplace to the iOS or Android device on the same home network.

That means you could, theoretically, prop your iPhone on your coffee machine and enjoy a little XCOM while you wait for the chicken to finish on the stove. To stream using your iOS, Apple TV, or Android device, you need to be connected via Ethernet, or over a 5GHz Wi-Fi network. According to Valve, which announced the apps upcoming release two days after it was approved, Apple revoked the approval, citing business conflicts that slipped past the companys initial review team.
