Hiding in plane sight: How do you get migratory birds and wildlife off Alaska’s second-largest airport runways in Anchorage? Deploy a headless robot the size of a Labrador. They’re going to make the robot look like a coyote or fox by changing up its side panels.
Monday is April 1, and I can’t let it go by without recommending some techy April Fools’ pranks! If you know me, you know I love a good gag. If you know Barry, you know he’s my most frequent victim.
These sneaky tricks are harmless (and hilarious), but be forewarned — they require a little bit of device snooping. Hey, what else do you have going on this weekend?
In every Apple ad, the time shown on the iPhones, MacBooks and iPads is always the same. Is it A.) 9:41, B.) 12:01, C.) 6:30 or D.) 10:10?

That’s the new record for internet speed. Scientists from Aston University hit 301 terabits per second. That’s fast enough to download every single movie on IMDb in one minute. I can’t even pick what to watch in five minutes.
They are diabetes, air pollution and alcohol consumption. Scientists looked at 40,000 brain scans and found those have double the risk of other factors.
For context, the highest iPhone camera speed is just 240 frames per second (fps). Scientists will use the camera’s “swept-coded aperture real-time femto-photography” (SCARF, for short) to snap “shockwaves moving through matter.” But can it see why kids love the taste of Cinnamon Toast Crunch? All right, I’m sorry for that one.
What TikTok’s spending to pressure senators to vote “no” on the app’s ban. The ads feature TikTokkers talking about how a ban would hurt their livelihoods, and they’re slated to run for a month in key states. TikTok can buy all the ads they want; I’m not buying their Communist China B.S.
