Avast collected data on location, health concerns, and more.

When her cellphone's service went down this week because of an AT&T network outage, Bernice Hudson didn't panic. She just called the people she wanted to talk to the old-fashioned way—on her landline telephone, the kind she grew up with and refuses to get rid of even though she has a mobile phone.

International markets are set to make a greater contribution to revenue growth and margin expansion, said Lotus Group CEO Feng Qingfeng.

Here are the components you need in order to craft Lightning in Infinite Craft.

GOG.com adds to its DRM-free lineup with RoboCop: Rogue City and gives it a nice launch discount.

All 50 levels of the Technology tree and every single unlock at each level, including Ancient Technology, in Palworld.

AI holds the potential to revolutionize health care, but it also brings with it a significant challenge: bias. For instance, a dermatologist might use an AI-driven system to help identify suspicious moles. But what if the machine learning model was trained primarily on image data from lighter skin tones, and misses a common form of skin cancer on a darker-skinned patient?

Deep learning modeling that incorporates physical knowledge is currently a hot topic, and a number of excellent techniques have emerged. The most well-known one is the physics-informed neural networks (PINNs).

A new approach to waste management could help villages in rural India cut indoor air pollution, improve soil health, and generate clean power, researchers say.

A team from the Naval University of Engineering in Wuhan, China, has created novel algorithms that rectify inertial errors using sparse acoustic signals. This exploration offers a novel method for the issue of underwater navigation, where traditional satellite systems are ineffective due to their signals' inability to penetrate water effectively.

SMU Associate Professor Christoph Treude examines the foundations for studies on open-source software and protestware.

Microbially induced corrosion (MIC) is a prevalent issue in marine environments, leading to structural damages such as cracking in concrete infrastructure. This corrosion poses a persistent challenge, significantly reducing the lifespan of marine structures and resulting in substantial economic losses.

Manchester United's new co-owner Jim Ratcliffe unveiled Friday his Ineos group's latest 4x4 vehicle, which will come in two electric versions as the British billionaire criticized range limits on 'green' cars.

The downscaling of electronic devices, such as transistors, has reached a plateau, posing challenges for semiconductor fabrication. However, a research team led by materials scientists from City University of Hong Kong (CityU) recently discovered a new strategy for developing highly versatile electronics with outstanding performance using transistors made of mixed-dimensional nanowires and nanoflakes.

On a chilly December evening in eastern Idaho, a semi-tractor trailer truck pulls off the desert highway and up to the gate at the Department of Energy's Materials and Fuels Complex.

A team of security experts at the University of Florida working with security audit company CertiK has found that a certain class of cyberattacks could cause a smartphone to catch fire via its wireless charger. The team has posted a paper describing their research and results on the arXiv preprint server.

Coming to Windows 11 — and Windows 10, too.

We’re back on the Moon!

Imagine being able to build an entire dialysis machine using nothing more than a 3D printer.

Soft robots inspired by animals can help to tackle real-world problems in efficient and innovative ways. Roboticists have been working to continuously broaden and improve these robots' capabilities, as this could open new avenues for the automation of tasks in various settings.
