Malicious attackers can flood iPhone users with endless popups using a $170 tool
Devices like the Flipper Zero can send out pre-programmed radio signals that can cause an iPhone to open a disruptive interface, effectively being attacked into temporary uselessness.Not Your AirPodsApple products like the iPhone have various communi.....»»
Marine heat waves don"t just hit coral reefs. They can cause chaos on the seafloor
Most of us know what a heat wave feels like on land—sweltering heat for days. But oceans get heat waves too. When water temperature goes over a seasonal threshold for five days or more, that's a marine heat wave. They do their worst damage in summe.....»»
Zimbabwe"s climate action plan: A win for the environment, health and energy
The dumping of billions of tons of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases into the atmosphere yearly is already having a devastating impact around the world. This includes widespread flooding and droughts, raging wildfires, heat waves and record t.....»»
After studying more than 1,500 coastal ecosystems, researchers say they will drown if we let the world warm above 2C
Much of the world's natural coastline is protected by living habitats, most notably mangroves in warmer waters and tidal marshes closer to the poles. These ecosystems support fisheries and wildlife, absorb the impact of crashing waves and clean up po.....»»
Searching for dark matter with the world"s most sensitive radio
Since the 1960s there has been plenty of evidence to support the existence of dark matter through astrophysical and cosmological observations, and at this point we're very confident that it exists. The question remains, though: what is dark matter ac.....»»
