For a sport that’s more than 150 years old, the opening of the 2026 Major League Baseball season is set to feature an unusual number of firsts. The official Opening Day on March 26 is the earliest in baseball history. The first official game of the season tonight between the Giants and the Yankees — which is Opening Night, not Opening Day, totally different — will be the first-ever game streamed on Netflix.And chances are that some time during that game, a player will tap his helmet or hat after a pitch is thrown, challenging the umpire’s call and triggering…
Across the region, facilities tied to water and power—including desalination plants—have been damaged or exposed to risk as Iranian strikes extend beyond traditional targets.A single strike, however, is unlikely to shut off the gulf’s water supply. The system is designed to absorb isolated disruption, but sustained or multisite attacks would begin to strain supply far more quickly.“In the Gulf, desalination is built with enough breathing room that losing one plant doesn’t immediately show up at the tap,” says Rabee Rustum, professor of water and environmental engineering at Heriot-Watt University Dubai.In Kuwait, Iranian drone attacks have damaged two power and desalination…
There is a massive investment underway in building digital infrastructure for the AI era, and enterprises are on the hunt for IT providers who offer complete solutions.

It marks a moment for the independent software vendor and Nutanix’s ability to nurture fresh alliances that allows it…
For years, the technology industry has operated under the shadow of a single, green-tinted giant. NVIDIA, through a combination of visionary leadership and the early realization that GPUs were the secret sauce for parallel processing, effectively “owned” the AI market before most of us even knew there was an AI market to own. But as any long-term observer of this industry knows, dominance often breeds a certain kind of deafness. When a company stops listening to its customers because it believes its product is the only game in town, it creates a massive opening for a disciplined, focused competitor. That…
The legal battle between Epic Games and Apple is escalating once again. For a second time, the warring factions are going straight to the top of the judicial system. Apple is asking for the Supreme Court to review when and how it can charge commissions on mobile purchases made via third-party payment systems. The business has requested a motion to stay on a lower court ruling regarding the fees Apple charges to software developers using those external financial systems rather than the App Store.The last time Apple petitioned for an appeal at the top of the judicial branch, it was…
The quick sale has always been a false promise, a vision forced upon others. Consultative selling might be a solution or the worst thing ever. It’s your call to choose. As Tyler Durden says, “Advertising has us chasing cars and clothes, working jobs we hate so we can buy shit we don’t need.” While quoting Fight Club can seem like the start of a satirical critique on the nature of selling, it is not that. None can escape the hamster wheel of consumerism; everyone wants to survive, eat well, and live luxurious lives, including work lives. But what we can…
Americans already lose roughly $1,500 a year to spoiled groceries, according to a 2025 CNET survey, but the freezer isn’t always the rescue it appears to be. The freezer feels like a safe haven for anything you’re not ready to use or that bulk haul of produce you bought on sale. The problem? Not everything comes back from the cold in one piece. Some foods need special handling before they’re frozen, while others simply can’t be saved — emerging mealy, mushy or completely inedible.Before you seal something in a bag and call it “saved,” here are 11 common foods that have no…
Mini PCs have gotten genuinely capable over the last couple of years, but most of them still ask you to accept meaningful connectivity compromises to get into a compact chassis. The GEEKOM A7 MAX doesn’t make that trade. It’s down to $699 at Amazon, a $250 saving off its $949 list price, and it pairs a Ryzen 9 7940HS with dual USB4 ports, dual 2.5G LAN, and DDR5 memory in a package that takes up less desk space than most monitors.

Dr Michelle Ng turned a moment of loss into a new beginning for herself On Jun 28, 2025, Dr Michelle Ng was 39 weeks pregnant, nine days away from giving birth. That’s when she received an email from her previous employer, saying that they would pause her senior doctor incentives and deduct from her maternity pay to cover the commissions for doctors hired in her place. She read the email twice. Then she went on to draft her resignation letter with conviction. What happened next would transform Dr Michelle’s and her family’s lives. Within a few months, she would open…
Apple Watches are smart little gadgets, but they don’t always fit the vibe. There were plenty of nights and dressier events when I left mine at home because—as much as I wanted to check my notifications discreetly—it didn’t match my outfit. I’ve also had my fair share of faux pas and just let the neon orange sport band clash with my neutral ensemble.Fortunately, Apple Watch bands are a simple and relatively affordable way to zhuzh up the look of your wearable. Beyond aesthetics, different styles also impact performance and functionality. For example, I don’t want a heavy stainless steel or…
