Up to 12 feet (3.7 meters) in length and with a fierce, aggressive attitude, two new species of giant dwarf crocodile that have just been identified by scientists are not ones you would have wanted to encounter during the Early and Middle Miocene.  These beasts would have roamed parts of Africa between 15 and 18 million years ago. It looks as though they then abruptly disappeared from the scene – a sudden exit that may have been the result of swift environmental changes.The two new species have been named Kinyang…

Mozilla Firefox has just made changes to its browser, making an existing feature available by default to all users. The tool is called Total Cookie Protection, and thanks to it, Firefox now calls itself “the most private and secure major browser available across Windows, Mac, and Linux.” Whether Firefox is really the best browser remains to be seen, but Total Cookie Protection certainly kicks things up a notch where privacy is concerned. Will it be enough to help Firefox pull ahead of the competition? Mozilla Firefox…

The events of Top Gun: Maverick see Tom Cruise’s Pete “Maverick” Mitchell training a group of young pilots for a dangerous mission. One of those pilots is the quiet, but extremely capable Lieutenant Robert “Bob” Floyd, played by Lewis Pullman, the son of Bill Pullman, who got some time in the cockpit playing President Thomas Whitmore in Independence Day (a title he’s partly responsible for). In fact, the elder Pullman gave his son some advice related to the 1996 sci-fi action movie upon learning Lewis would appear in…

Source: Apple When Apple started talking about watchOS 9 at WWDC 2022, I held my breath. I had been pretty excited about what watchOS 9 could look like for months leading up to the big event, but with that excitement came some anxiety. But that anxiety soon turned to pure excitement as Apple began to run through all the new and improved stuff coming to the Apple Watch. It seems that Apple's plan for watchOS 9 is to give us more of everything. More features, more metrics to track, and more improvements to existing parts…

Well-known insiders have unanimously predicted that Apple’s WWDC 2022 event would not deliver the introduction of realityOS. That’s the name Apple will use for the operating system that will power its smart glasses soon, an OS name that Apple apparently trademarked already.

The building blocks of the operating system…

On the left-hand side is a…
