About 1,000 of a set of 15,000 free access scientific journals seem to exist mainly to extract the costs of naive academics. A trio of computer scientists from the University of Colorado Boulder, the University of Syracuse and the Chinese Technology Institute (EIT) has reached this figure after having built a classification of automatic learning to help identify “doubtful” journals, then carry out a human examination of the results – because AI is short of itself. A questionable newspaper is the one that violates best practices and has low editorial standards, which are mainly existing to have academics to pay…
Renata Colella/Shutterstock Roku users have seen a series of recent updates that improve the overall streaming and browsing experience, as well as new features.

Depending on the firmware version, the name may appear under Ambient Filmmaker Mode or Adaptive Filmmaker Mode, but the function remains the same.Once enabled, the adjustment is fully automatic.

When night falls, the mode returns to its original curve, calibrated for darkness. And in an already dark room, the sensor does not change anything, the rendering remains unchanged.Tip: to notice the difference, test a dark scene (like those in Blade Runner 2049 Or The Batman) during the day, alternating…
LXCs are one of the reasons Proxmox feels so good in a home lab. They are lightweight, fast, easy to clone, and generally much less expensive than creating an entire VM for each small service. When something only needs a basic Linux environment and a few predictable ports, an LXC might seem like the obvious answer. This convenience is exactly what makes it so tempting to use them for everything. Some services run in LXCs until they need deeper hardware access, a cleaner network, less fragile storage, or less permissions gymnastics. I learned the hard way that “can run” and…
Samsung The most common type of fainting called vasovagal syncope (VVS) is not normally dangerous in itself, but it can cause sudden falls leading to serious secondary injuries like concussions. Samsung now claims to have figured out how to predict VVS “with high accuracy” using biosignals from its Galaxy Watch 6. Such early warnings could allow users to move to a safe position or call for help. Samsung worked with Chung-Ang University’s Gwangmyeong Hospital in Korea to develop the new monitoring technique, as detailed in an article in the European…
