What is Lightning? Introduced in 2012 with the iPhone 5, Lightning is Apple’s proprietary 8-pin connector format, which replaced the company’s original 30-pin dock connector for iPods, iPhones, and other handhelds. Like USB-C, the common charging/data port on Android phones and tablets, a Lightning connection charges, transmits audio, and transfers data to and from your device. Since its introduction, Lightning has been used in dozens of Apple devices and accessories, including last year’s iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max, the Magic Trackpad 2, MagSafe Duo Charger, and AirPods Max....

Spend that much now and you can get a massive OLED display with some of the best picture quality and color reproduction around....

“As the single largest landowner, energy consumer, and employer in the Nation, the Federal Government can catalyze private sector investment and expand the economy and American industry by transforming how we build, buy, and manage electricity, vehicles, buildings, and other operations to be clean and sustainable,” the executive order states. The other major goals of the order are switching to carbon-pollution-free electricity by 2030, hitting net-zero emissions from construction materials and other federal acquisitions by 2050, and creating a net-zero building portfolio by 2045....

All told, the order includes more than 70 points and involves multiple government entities, such as the Department of Transportation and the Federal Trade Commission. Here’s what to know about what the order could mean for some key sectors, such as the airlines and the internet—and how it might affect you down the road. The executive order covers a lot of ground The fact that the order includes so many different directives and requests in so many disparate areas is itself a point worth paying attention to, says Tejas Narechania, who codirects the Berkeley Center for Law and Technology at the University of California, Berkeley....

The whale has continued its charm offensive throughout Norwegian waters, where it swims around and interacts with any boat it can find. Despite its efforts to endear itself, officials believe the animal, the color of bleached coral and capable of reaching 14 feet and 3,000 pounds, is actually an undercover Russian spy. The evidence seems convincing. Beluga whales just don’t act like this: they aren’t typically friendly to humans and they most certainly do not wear GoPro cameras....

Diagnosed with RBD nearly a decade before his Parkinson’s diagnosis, Gary shared on ABC’s Good Morning America: “It’s a terrible symptom that is really not spoken about a lot. I’m lucky if I average three hours of good sleep at night.” Not everyone with RBD will go on to develop Parkinson’s. But in some people, like Gary, RBD is one of the earliest symptoms of PD. The sleep condition can occur years or decades before motor symptoms typically associated with Parkinson’s—such as shaking (tremor), slowness and stiffness—appear....

Quantum computers can get pretty complicated, so here’s some basic information to know. How do quantum computers differ from classical computers? Quantum computers work a lot like classical computers. The ones and zeros we think of in computing are based on the idea that silicon chips have transistors on them, which are tiny switches that can be controlled to let electrical current through them or not. As the book Quantum Computing for the Quantum Curious explains, “computer hardware understands the 1-bit as an electrical current flowing through a wire (in a transistor) while the 0-bit is the absence of an electrical current in a wire....

Twitter has a history of abusive content and cyberbullying. Former CEO Dick Costolo even admitted as such, writing in an internal memo obtained by The Verge, “We suck at dealing with abuse and trolls on the platform and we’ve sucked at it for years.” Failure to address these problems has exacerbated the potential effects of ongoing incidents like GamerGate, which show how quickly tweets can escalate to real danger, including verbal abuse and threats of rape and/or death (often of female users)....

Unfortunately, there aren’t a lot of forests in space, and that sucks for the future astronauts we’ll send to Mars and back. They’ll spend about two years cooped up in a spacecraft with no option to stroll through a meadow or feel the sunshine on their skin, and that could wear on their psychological states. Former astronaut Jay Buckey wants to see if virtual reality can help. The Dartmouth physician and his team have sent Oculus Rift headsets deep into the Arctic to test whether exposure to nature through virtual reality can help improve mood and stress levels....

The Weatherbird‘s captain was former Greenpeace officer Peter Willcox, a man who had devoted more than 20 years of his life to protesting illegal fishing and nuclear testing at the helm of Greenpeace’s flagship vessel, the Rainbow Warrior. The crew was made up of earnest young environmentalists and scientists, some just a few years out of college. And the project was led by San Francisco businessman Russ George, a former fisheries and forestry worker who had himself once stood night watch on the Rainbow Warrior in his native Canada....
