Earlier this month, we saw two Motorola smartphones pass through the FCC which we assumed were the Moto G7 and G7 Plus. Now, thanks to a filing on the FCC website found by Droid-Life, we have real-life photos of the Moto G7 Play and details about the handset’s internals. First, looking at the exterior of […]
We’ve seen plenty of good deals on Google’s recently-released Home Hub smart display this Black Friday/Cyber Monday weekend.

The Guardian has learned that Google recently settled a racial discrimination claim from a British contractor who collected shopping mall WiFi data for the Maps team in Europe. Allegedly, the company withdrew an offer for a […]
Researchers from the CNRS and Université de Sherbrooke, have discovered a universal law for the electronic properties of high-temperature superconductors. They exposed superconductors to an intense magnetic field to weaken superconductivity and reveal underlying properties. They measured the variations of electrical resistivity up to -263 °C, and developed a predictive model that can be applied […]
A Chinese scientist is claiming to have helped create the world’s first genetically edited babies after a couple gave birth earlier this month to two twin girls whose DNA was engineered to have the capability to thwart off HIV and AIDS.

In recent reports, one of many disappointed Fallout 76 players contacted Bethesda for a refund on the disastrous and catastrophic online survival-RPG Fallout 76 (and those aren’t just one man’s words). Although Bethesda promised a refund, they bailed out the next day with an unconvincing excuse. A lot has been going on with Bethesda and […]
For the last decade, scientists have been making giant leaps in their ability to build and control systems based on the bizarre rules of quantum mechanics, which describe the behavior of particles at the subatomic scale. But a challenge is getting delicate quantum systems to play well with mechanical ones—anything with moving parts—which underlie a […]
With Apple shares down more than 20 percent from their all-time highs of only a few weeks ago, writers are piling-on about what’s wrong in Cupertino. But sometimes writers looking for a story don’t fully understand what they are talking about. And that seems to me to be the case with complaints that Apple is […]
