🚗 Green Light for Cars: Progress or Illusion?

In the US, cars are getting "cleaner": CO2 emissions hit a record low of 319 g/mile, and fuel efficiency climbed to 27.1 miles per gallon. Thanks to tech innovations and electric vehicles, the air is (slightly) fresher. Tesla leads the eco-race, while GM and Ford seem to be stuck in reverse.
But how long will this progress last? With Donald Trump back in the game, emission standards and EV tax credits might be scrapped. Ironically, Trump and Musk are supposedly "friends," yet their views on climate policy couldn’t be more opposite. If Trump rolls back Biden’s policies, Tesla could lose billions, and the planet could lose its cleaner air.
Bottom line? The world of "green" cars is moving forward, but it feels like its speed depends more on politics than technology.

💡 Do you think ecology will win, or will corporate interests take the driver’s seat?

Not exactly news, but still creepy AF 🕵️

A Dutch startup founder pushed the boundaries of privacy: he wore glasses with a camera that sent images straight to the OSINT service Pimeyes. The result? A full profile of random strangers in seconds.

Imagine: someone walks up to you, asks where the nearest restroom is, and the next thing you know, they already have your name, workplace, and maybe a couple of embarrassing photos from the past.
Tech is cool and all, but this experiment makes you wonder: where’s the line between progress and straight-up creepiness?

💡 Would you be okay with a world where people can "Google" you right on the street?

🌌 Hibernation in Real Life: From Sci-Fi to Reality?

Oxford scientists are bringing hibernation closer to real life. Torpor — a reduction in metabolism and body temperature — opens new possibilities: treating severe illnesses and enabling long space travel.

What’s happening in the labs?
Researchers study how animals survive during hibernation.
Synthetic methods, like sulfur-based compounds, are being developed to induce torpor in humans.
Scientists aim to minimize side effects: muscle atrophy, weak immunity, and mental strain.

Why is this important?
In medicine: Hibernation could aid with strokes, brain injuries, and neurodegenerative diseases.
In space: It could cut resource needs and reduce stress on long missions.
Though early-stage, this research could redefine human capabilities.

💡 Is the future ready for us, or are we not ready for it?
