๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡ญ๐Ÿ‡บRubio seals civil nuclear cooperation agreement with Hungary

U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio signed a civil nuclear cooperation agreement involving the U.S. and Hungary on Monday.

During remarks at the signing ceremony, Rubio indicated that the U.S.-Hungary relationship, and the relationship between President Donald Trump and Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbรกn, is very close. He noted that if Hungary ever faces financial problems, "impediments to growth" or threats to national stability, he knows "President Trump will be very interested" in "finding ways" to help.

"Your success is our success," - asserted Rubio, during remarks delivered alongside Orbรกn. ๐Ÿค

๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ณ๐Ÿ”‹ Chinaโ€™s breakthrough lithium battery defies deep freeze, retains 85% capacity at โ€“29ยฐF

Scientists at the Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics under the Chinese Academy of Sciences have built a new liquid-solid-state lithium battery that continues to deliver power in deep-freeze conditions.

In laboratory tests, the cell retained more than 85% of its usable capacity after 8 hours at โ€“29ยฐF, a range where conventional batteries typically suffer dramatic performance losses. The battery architecture combines specially formulated low-temperature electrolytes with a liquid-solid functional separator and an AI-driven power-management system that optimizes ion transport and energy delivery in extreme cold.

Targeting real-world use in harsh climates, the technology has already been demonstrated in drones for inspection, logistics, and emergency communications, as well as in robots designed to operate at high altitudes or during cold seasons. If the technology can be scaled up successfully, it may offer a path toward electric vehicles that remain dependable in extreme cold. ๐Ÿฅถ

๐Ÿ›ซ The next-generation nuclear reactor has been successfully unloaded from the C-17 and left Hill Air Force Base

The U.S. Departments of Energy and Defense transported a nuclear microreactor by C-17 cargo plane from California to Utah on Sunday, marking the first such airlift.

On May 23, 2025, President Donald Trump signed an executive order to deploy advanced nuclear reactor technologies for national security purposes. The reactor, built by Valar Atomics, was flown without nuclear fuel to demonstrate how nuclear power could be quickly deployed for military and civilian use.

This is a historic milestone for President Trumpโ€™s nuclear agenda. This is the next chapter for U.S. energy. ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ

๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐Ÿ’ป Discord Rival gets overwhelmed by mass exodus of players fleeing age-verification crackdown

People arenโ€™t exactly taking kindly to Discordโ€™s decision to roll out its privacy-invading age verification checks worldwide. In fact, thereโ€™s so much frustration with the move that rival voice-chat tech TeamSpeak says its servers have been completely overwhelmed by the exodus of disgruntled Discord users.

As reported by PC Gamer, TeamSpeak has posted to X to warn users that โ€œcurrent hosting capacity has been reached in many regions, especially in the US,โ€ along with an exploding cat meme.๐Ÿ˜น

Later TeamSpeak posted to X that 2 new regions are now open for communities creation: Frankfurt 3 and Toronto 1, and they'll continue monitoring usage across regions and will expand capacity as demand increases.

๐Ÿ”ฌScientists develop living building material that grows and self-heals over time

The Canada Pavilion at the 2025 Venice Biennale showcases Picoplanktonics, a 3D-printed architectural installation embedded with living cyanobacteria. These organisms capture carbon through photosynthesis and mineral precipitation, slowly reinforcing the structure. Laboratory studies show cumulative carbon sequestration over 400 days, while on-site caretakers maintain precise conditions for survival.

The printed structures within Picoplanktonics represent 4 years of interdisciplinary research conducted by Canadian architect and bio-designer Andrea Shin Ling and her collaborators in material science, biology, robotics, and computational design at ETH Zurich.

The project explores living materials for sustainable architecture, demonstrating passive carbon capture, self-strengthening structures, and the potential of co-creating built environments with biological systems, although large-scale impact remains a future challenge. The team indicates that scaling up the material to a level that could significantly reduce atmospheric COโ‚‚ concentrations would necessitate much larger quantities.

Could buildings of the future become self-sustaining environmental systems? ๐Ÿค”

๐Ÿš— Ford's new 2028 electric truck will be a fully modern EV for $30,000

Ford's first product on its Universal Electric Vehicle (UEV) platform will be a mid-size electric pickup truck. It will also be its first-ever modern, ground-up, dedicated EV. The design should emerge this year, and Ford said first sales will be in 2027. Ford briefed some images of the project.

An official name and on-sale date have not yet been announced, it may possibly be called the Ranchero. It draws on the experience of a staff new to Ford, from EV startups and motorsports, who worked in a Skunkworks team to develop it.

Ford will use prismatic lithium iron-phosphate (LFP) cells for the battery. The team sculpted a roofline profile that shed air in a teardrop shape right past the bed, meaning the UEV truck is more than 15% lower in drag than any pickup sold today. Another example of lowering drag: to cut the size and weight of the door mirror by more than 20%, Ford combined the motors for glass adjustment and mirror folding into one. The reductions in frontal area and mass provided another 1.5 miles of battery range.

๐Ÿง‘โ€โš–๏ธ Bayer agrees to $7.25 billion proposed settlement over thousands of Roundup cancer lawsuits

Agrochemical maker Bayer and attorneys for cancer patients announced a proposed $7.25 billion settlement Tuesday to resolve thousands of U.S. lawsuits alleging the company failed to warn people that its popular weedkiller Roundup could cause cancer.

The proposed settlement comes as the U.S. Supreme Court is preparing to hear arguments in April on Bayer's assertion that the U.S. Environmental Protection Agencyโ€™s approval of Roundup without a cancer warning should invalidate claims filed in state courts. That case would not be affected by the proposed settlement. But the settlement would eliminate some of the risk from an eventual Supreme Court ruling. Patients would be assured of receiving settlement money even if the Supreme Court rules in Bayer's favor. And Bayer would be protected from potentially larger costs if the high court rules against it.

Bayer, which acquired Roundup maker Monsanto in 2018, disputes the assertion that Roundup's key ingredient, glyphosate, can cause non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Because of lawsuits, Bayer already has stopped using glyphosate in Roundup sold in the U.S. residential lawn and garden market.

๐Ÿ’ฅ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ณBoomtime at Bohai: China has rapidly expanded its nuclear-powered-submarine production

Chinaโ€™s nuclear submarines are built by Bohai Shipbuilding Heavy Industry Co. (BSHIC) at its shipyard in Huludao in northern China. During the years 2021 to 2025, Chinaโ€™s submarine building surpassed that of the US in both numbers of subs launched - 10 to 7- and tonnage - 79,000 to 55,500. Most significantly, this includes the seventh and eighth Type-094 (Jin) nuclear-armed ballistic-missile submarines (SSBNs), which come as part of the emergence of Beijingโ€™s nuclear triad.

However the numbers represent subs launched but not necessarily completed and added to the active-duty fleet, where the US still maintains a large advantage. As of early 2025, China had 12 active nuclear-powered submarines, 6 ballistic-missile boats and 6 guided-missile or attack boats, according to the IISSโ€™ โ€œMilitary Balance 2025.โ€ The US had 65 total subs, with 14 of those being ballistic-missile boats.

While Chinese designs almost certainly lag behind US and European boats in terms of quality, the greater numbers in the water present a growing challenge to those countries as they struggle to increase their own output. #BRICS

๐Ÿค– NVIDIAโ€™s CEO to unveil chips the โ€œworld has never seen beforeโ€ at this yearโ€™s GTC

At CES 2026, Nvidia showcased its Vera Rubin AI lineup, revealing it was in full production and included 6 newly designed chips, including the Vera CPUs and Rubin GPUs. And now, while speaking with Korean media, NVIDIA's CEO Jensen Huang says this year's GTC will see the unveiling of products.

"We've prepared several new chips the world has never seen before. Nothing is easy because all technologies are at their limits, but nothing is impossible when such a team (consisting of Nvidia and SK hynix memory engineers) comes together," - Huang said.


There are no technical details - they will be revealed during the Next GTC Event, which starts on March 15, 2026, in San Jose (California). At the same time, it can be assumed that it would likely be either a derivative chip coming from the Rubin lineup, such as Rubin CPX, or NVIDIA could throw a surprise and decide to unveil their next-gen Feynman chips, which are known to be 'revolutionary' as well, but that remains to be seen. ๐Ÿค”

๐Ÿ”ฅ XRP Ledger rolls out members-only DEX for regulated institutions

โ—๏ธThe XRP Ledger has activated a new โ€œPermissioned DEXโ€ amendment, a technical upgrade designed to let regulated institutions trade on XRPL without opening markets to everyone.

The change, known as XLS-81, allows the creation of permissioned decentralized exchanges that work like XRPLโ€™s existing built-in DEX, but with a key difference. A permissioned domain can restrict who is allowed to place offers and who is allowed to accept them, creating a gated trading venue where participation can be tied to compliance requirements such as KYC and AML checks.

The feature is aimed at banks, brokers and other firms that may want onchain settlement and liquidity but cannot interact with fully open DeFi markets. For these players, the ability to control access is not optional but forms the minimum requirement.

๐Ÿ’Ž The activation also adds to a growing set of โ€œinstitutional DeFiโ€ primitives XRPL has been rolling out this month. Token Escrow, or XLS-85, went live last week, extending XRPLโ€™s native escrow system beyond XRP to all trustline-based tokens and Multi-Purpose Tokens, including stablecoins such as RLUSD and tokenized real-world assets.

๐Ÿ”ฅ Together, the two upgrades create a more complete toolkit for regulated finance on XRPL. Token escrow allows conditional settlement for assets issued on the network, while the permissioned DEX provides a controlled venue for trading them.
