Apple explores letting people control iPhones with their brains, report says
Apple is working on a way for people with physical disabilities to control devices with their thoughts.
On Tuesday, the tech giant announced a partnership with brain-computer interface (BCI) company Synchron that's developing an implantable device with electrodes that read brain signals. This technology enables Apple to translate these signals into actions like selecting icons on the screens of iPhones, iPads, and Apple Vision Pro "without the need for physical movement or voice commands," according to the press release.

Shin Bet: Netanyahu's funding for Hamas via Qatar enabled October 7 invasion
***The Shin Bet also revealed that SIM cards and sensors along the border were activated ahead of time but were ignored.***
While the Shin Bet (Israel Security Agency) took a significant amount of responsibility for the disasters on October 7 in its report published unexpectedly on Tuesday, it also implicated Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu by implying that his policies regarding the Temple Mount, the treatment of Palestinian prisoners, and the judicial reform led to Hamas’s decision to initiate its long-planned invasion.

London Underground Disrupted by Substation Fire, Hours After PM House Burns
What’s happening in the United Kingdom?
A mere few hours after a fire broke out in a North London house belonging to Keir Starmer – an incident that has aroused strong suspicions of arson and is being investigated by Counterterrorism police – another fire sent the transportation system into chaos.
Many London Underground services have been suspended after a fire broke at an electrical substation on Monday afternoon, causing a partial blackout that affected its operations.

Scientists mimicking the Big Bang accidentally turn lead into gold
Medieval alchemists dreamed of transmuting lead into gold.
Today, we know that lead and gold are different elements, and no amount of chemistry can turn one into the other.
But our modern knowledge tells us the basic difference between an atom of lead and an atom of gold: the lead atom contains exactly three more protons. So can we create a gold atom by simply pulling three protons out of a lead atom?

Believe it or not, Microsoft just announced a Linux distribution service
Would you believe Microsoft has announced a new Linux distribution service for its Azure cloud service? You should.
For many years, the most popular operating system on Azure has not been Windows Server, it's been Linux. Last time I checked, in 2024, Azure Linux Platforms Group Program Manager Jack Aboutboul told me that 60% of Azure Marketplace offerings and more than 60% of virtual machine cores use Linux. Those figures mean it's sensible for Microsoft to make it easier than ever for Linux distributors to release first-class Linux distros on Azure.
