Advances in neuro-imaging and molecular biology have only recently enabled scientists to study the living…

Researchers have discovered that aluminium suspension components can be manufactured using forged instead of extruded bolts. This will save time, energy, money and large volumes of waste materials. Credit: Raufoss Technology Aluminum plays a key role in reducing the weight of a car and thus also helps to reduce fuel consumption. A modern car contains large amounts of aluminum and use of the metal is on the increase.…

A startup backed by investors including Bill Gates is racing to build what could be the first silicon wafer factory for solar panels in the U.S., the latest example of the influence of recent legislation offering tax credits for green-energy projects. Silicon wafers are a key piece of the solar supply chain, and China controls 97% of it. There are currently no factories to make wafers for solar panels in the U.S., and the Energy Department has said building them should be a priority, since they could…

The end is in sight for one of the biggest sources of inflation. Surging housing costs helped keep inflation high this year but have likely already swung into reverse, economists say. The signal comes from private-sector indexes of rents on new leases, which tend to lead the consumer-price index measures by a little less than a year, said Alan Detmeister, economist at UBS .   The end is in sight for one of the biggest sources of inflation. Surging housing costs helped keep inflation…

If you've been debating on picking up the iPhone 14 or waiting for the iPhone 15 and love photography, Sony might want you to stick it out until next year.As reported by Nikkei Asia, Sony has developed a "state-of-the-art" image sensor for smartphones and, unsurprisingly, that sensor is expected to be featured in the iPhone 15 lineup. Sony Semiconductor Solutions, who developed the sensor, will manufacture it at the company's plant in Nagasaki where it will be shipped off to Apple and other smartphone competitors.While…

Apple's iPhone 15, likely to be released in 2023, is already at the center of rumors suggesting the device will ditch clicky buttons in favor of a more solid-state approach. A potential supplier for parts needed to make that happen might have hinted that it will.Cirrus Logic is a company that makes components that can be used in Apple's Taptic Engine. The company's CEO says it will "engage with a strategic customer" to "bring a new HPMS component to market in smartphones next year."Taptic techCirrus Logic CEO John…

Marvel’s Midnight Suns is not just XCOM with a Marvel Comics skin. It’s a card/strategy game hybrid that has players collecting cards, equipping each character with decks, and using those special abilities as they pop up during a fight. That then begs the question: Does Marvel’s Midnight Suns work as a card game? I’m dozens of hours deep into the game as part of the review process and can reveal that the answer is yes. Dealt a good hand Card games can be overwhelming to first-time players, as can strategy games, but…
