Remember That First Picture Of A Black Hole In Our Galaxy We Took It

In fact, most physicists have suspected that our own galaxy revolves around a supermassive black hole at its center. There are other ideas too – such as “dark matter” (an invisible substance thought to make up most of the matter in the universe). But now an international team of astronomers, including a team that I led from the University of Central Lancashire, has unveiled the first image of the object lurking at the center of the Milky Way – and it is a supermassive black hole....

Remote Learning During The Pandemic Has Hit Vulnerable Students The Hardest

In the 15 years he’s been teaching, high school literature teacher Jude Mirambeau has never faced a school year like the past one. In March, as the COVID-19 pandemic spread, his state of Florida, which is home to some of the largest school districts in the nation, shuttered its schools in an attempt to slow infections. Teachers shifted to “distance learning.” Mirambeau’s district, the Broward County school district, which has about 270,000 students, loaned out tens of thousands of computers to help get students access....

Report Facebook Turned A Blind Eye To Violence Inciting Posts To Appease India S Government

Because of this power, platforms often think about taking actions on incriminating posts by leaders of the party — even if they violate their content policy. According to a report from the Wall Street Journal, Ankhi Das, Facebook India’s Public Policy Director, stopped moderators from taking down posts and didn’t reveal the company took down some of the pages run by the BJP. WSJ’s post noted that Facebook moderators marked posts by T....

Report Facebook Wanted To Buy Fitbit Too But Google Offered More Cash

Facebook doesn’t have a huge hardware presence, with its best-known physical products being its Oculus VR headsets and its Portal smart displays. The fact that it tried to buy Fitbit suggests the company is looking to expand its hardware offerings. But then again, the fact it wasn’t willing to go higher also suggests it either isn’t in that much of a hurry to enter the smartwatch and fitness wearable market....

Researchers Found A Cure For Diabetes In Lab Mice

A research team led by Jeffrey Millman at Washington University in St. Louis, Missouri found last year that infusing mice with stem cells could offer a better treatment option. Building on that research, the same team may have found a cure: at least in lab mice. Diabetics are characterized by their difficulty producing or managing insulin. This requires careful monitoring, a strict diet, exercise, and expensive insulin shots — which many diabetics find themselves rationing due to the cost of drugs in the United States....

Review Sony S Linkbuds S Offer Top Comfort And Noise Canceling For 200

As it turns out, Sony had another addition to the LinkBuds family on the way — the $200 LinkBuds S — and it couldn’t be more different. And by ‘different,’ I mean they’re a pair of utterly normal earbuds. But they’re very good normal earbuds. In fact, I’d argue that for most people, they’re the best earbuds Sony sells. Coming right after the WH-1000XM5 headphones, Sony is on quite the roll....

Review The Cambridge Audio Melomania 1 Wireless Earbuds Are Almost Perfect

And you know what? For a first try, they’re excellent. The Cambridge Audio Melomania 1 addresses many of the pain points people have with earbuds – namely short battery life, flaky connections, and dismal audio quality. They’re comfortable to wear, and, perhaps best of all, include the most reliable charging case I’ve ever used. Most surprising is the price tag. Retailing at $129.95, or £119.95 in the UK, the Melomania 1 is measurably cheaper than many of its high-profile rivals, including the Apple AirPods, as well as RHA’s venerable TrueConnect buds....

Review The Nemesis Dlc For Stellaris Is A Glorious Add On For Horrible People

First things first: Nemesis is primarily an end-game enhancing DLC. But its accompanying free update has a little something for everyone including much-needed improvements to early game scenarios such as making first contact with alien species and a wonderfully-implemented version of Europa Universalis IV’s espionage system. What’s good: The biggest changes with Nemesis occur during the end game. Players will have several new options in fighting the final galactic threat and, as mentioned, you’ll even get the opportunity to become the crisis....

Revolutionary Technique Lets Astronomers Find A Huge Planet That S Just Like Saturn

It has a screen (obviously), Google Assistant, and Chromecast streaming support....
