During its close flyby of Jupiter’s moon Io on December 30, 2023, NASA’s Juno spacecraft captured some of the most detailed imagery ever of Io’s volcanic surface. In this image, taken by the JunoCam instrument from about 930 miles (1,500 kilometers) above the moon, Io’s night side [left lobe] is illuminated by “Jupitershine,” which is sunlight reflected from the planet’s surface. This image is the NASA Science Image of the Month for October 2025. Each month, NASA’s Science Mission Directorate chooses an image to feature, offering desktop wallpaper downloads, as well as links to related topics, activities, and games. Text…
Xiaomi launched the 15T and 15T Pro in late September, possibly confusing a lot of people since it also introduced the 17, 17 Pro, and 17 Pro Max literally the day after that. Anyway, the 15T and 15T Pro are basically the Xiaomi branded flagship killer-like devices, which is what the T series has always been. The fact that they now seem like they’re two generations behind the current flagships can’t help, we assume – the new top of the line models were both launched earlier than usual and Xiaomi decided to skip the number 16 in order to align…
The Windows Defender Advanced Threat Protection service is a critical security component in Windows. When this service fails to start, your system becomes vulnerable to advanced threats and malware, as real-time protection and monitoring are disabled. You may have noticed that when you try to start it manually from the Services Manager, you ar unable […] This article Unable to start Windows Defender Advanced Threat Protection Service first appeared on TheWindowsClub.com.
Ryan Haines / Android AuthorityTL;DR Nothing Phone 3a and 3a Pro owners report a Glyph light that gets stuck on after the September update. Restarting the phone clears the issue, but it often returns. There’s no official fix yet, although one user was informed that a software update is being developed. Nothing’s signature Glyph lights are meant to be a handy visual accompaniment, but some Nothing Phone 3a and 3a Pro owners say they’re now refusing to turn off. Following the September update, multiple users have reported a persistent light that only disappears after rebooting the device. Across several Reddit…
Tech companies, data center developers, and power utilities have been panicking over the prospect of runaway demand for electricity in the U.S. in the face of unprecedented growth in AI. Amidst all the hand wringing, a new paper published this week suggests the situation might not be so dire if data center operators and other heavy electricity users curtail their use ever so slightly. By limiting power drawn from the grid to 90% of the maximum for a couple hours at a time — for a total of about a day per year — new users could unlock 76 gigawatts…
The relentless shrinking of silicon components has led to exponential improvements in chip performance, but we’re starting to hit physical limits. Now researchers have developed a way to integrate materials just 10 atoms thick into conventional chips.For decades, rapid advances in miniaturization meant the number of transistors on a microchip doubled approximately every two years, a phenomenon dubbed Moore’s law. But as these components started reaching dimensions of just a few nanometers, progress started to stall.This left researchers and chip companies casting about for new ways to squeeze computing power into ever smaller spaces. So-called “2D materials” are a promising…

Asus ROG Xbox Ally X: Two-minute reviewWhen the Asus ROG Xbox Ally X (and its less powerful, slightly more affordable ROG Xbox Ally) handhelds were announced earlier this year, it came as a bit of a surprise.For years, there had been rumors that Microsoft was working on an Xbox-focused handheld games console. The success of Nintendo’s handheld/home console hybrid Switch (and its follow-up, the Switch 2), plus the emergence…
It’s funny how much real estate goes to waste on a full-sized keyboard. The numpad takes up a big chunk of space, yet for many of us, it serves no real purpose. Sure, it’s indispensable for anyone who lives in Excel or crunches numbers all day, but if you’re not one of those people, it’s largely useless. For years, I ignored it completely. It was like a side annex of my keyboard that I never visited. There were seventeen perfectly good keys just sitting there, doing almost nothing, and it felt wasteful. So, I decided to put them to some…
This article covers a developing story. Continue to check back with us as we will be adding more information as it becomes available.Just a little over a month since Apple announced the iPhone 17 series, the Cupertino-based company is back at it again with new products, this time announcing new iPad Pro, MacBook Pro, and Vision Pro models. All three of Apple’s new devices are powered by Apple’s latest M5 chipset, which the company says has “the world’s fastest CPU core” and offers performance gains across the board. Overall, the design of both the M5 iPad Pro, MacBook Pro, and…
The Dfinity Foundation on Wednesday released Caffeine, an artificial intelligence platform that allows users to build and deploy web applications through natural language conversation alone, bypassing traditional coding entirely. The system, which became publicly available today, represents a fundamental departure from existing AI coding assistants by building applications on a specialized decentralized infrastructure designed specifically for autonomous AI development.Unlike GitHub Copilot, Cursor, or other "vibe coding" tools that help human developers write code faster, Caffeine positions itself as a complete replacement for technical teams. Users describe what they want in plain language, and an ensemble of AI models writes, deploys,…
