The Wave Suspension System is a patented 3-part back system that includes a central stem (spine), flexible fronds extending from the stem like supportive leaves, and a cradle that holds the structure in tension. Each frond is uniquely calibrated to support different parts of your back—from the base of your neck to your lower spine—and the system mimics the human body's spinal anatomy to provide adaptive support that flexes with your movements rather than resisting them.

The Fern chair features GREENGUARD Gold® certification, meaning it has been independently tested and proven to be free from over 10,000 chemicals, supporting cleaner air in your workspace. Additionally, the Digital Knit version uses zero-waste digital knit technology with recycled polyester fabric made from up to 17 PET-based plastic bottles, minimizing waste while delivering durability and comfort.

A 100-year bond is a debt security with a maturity date 100 years from issuance, requiring the issuer to pay interest periodically and repay principal far in the future; it is unusual for tech companies because predicting technological relevance and company stability over a century is challenging, marking the first such issuance since Motorola in 1997.

Alphabet plans to raise $15 billion through US high-grade debt, including a rare 100-year sterling note, primarily to fund massive capital expenditures on AI infrastructure and data centers, amid strong investor demand exceeding $100 billion.

Samsung Gulf's contest terms and conditions inadvertently confirmed that the Galaxy Unpacked event, featuring the Galaxy S26 Ultra unveiling, is on February 25, 2026, by specifying the 'Before Galaxy Unpacked' segment ends February 24 and the 'During and After' segment starts February 25.[7][12]

The February 25, 2026, date for Galaxy Unpacked was previously rumored and leaked by sources like Evan Blass, but Samsung Gulf's contest provided the first indirect official confirmation from Samsung itself, aligning with prior speculation.[7][4][9]

A 12VHPWR connector meltdown occurs when the 16-pin power connector on Nvidia RTX 40 and 50 series GPUs overheats and melts due to excessive current drawn through fewer pins than intended, often because all 12V pins are internally tied together on the GPU, preventing individual pin monitoring and leading to thermal overload even with proper insertion.

Unlike passive devices that only monitor and alert, Ampinel uses a microcontroller for active six-channel load balancing, continuously monitoring the six 12V lines and redistributing current in real-time if any exceeds 7.5A per pin, preventing overheating; it also features an OLED display, 85 dB buzzer, RGB alerts, and customizable alarms including GPU power shutdown.

Yes, most car Wi-Fi hotspots require an active data plan or subscription, often offered through the automaker's service (e.g., In-Vehicle Data plan for Volkswagen) or by adding to existing mobile plans like Verizon, T-Mobile, or NissanConnect Premium with trial periods such as 1 year of 2GB/month for Nissan 2026 models.

Access the infotainment screen, navigate to 'Connections' or 'Wi-Fi' tab, select 'Vehicle Hotspot' to turn it on, view the network name and password in settings, then connect devices by selecting the network and entering the password; similar steps apply across Nissan, INFINITI, and other brands.

Gene Roddenberry created Star Trek as a 'Wagon Train to the stars,' deliberately drawing from the Western genre that was popular in 1960s television. However, unlike traditional space colonization narratives, Roddenberry's vision prioritized peaceful exploration and respect for indigenous alien species rather than territorial expansion. The show presented an optimistic future where humanity had overcome war, poverty, and pollution, with characters defined by their curiosity and dedication to science rather than conflict. This was notably counter-cultural for Cold War-era American television, as it featured a diverse bridge crew of different races, nationalities, and species working together without internal conflict—a deliberate creative choice by Roddenberry to explore themes of human potential and moral philosophy rather than typical science fiction action.

Star Trek has had measurable impact on technological innovation and public interest in space exploration. Most notably, computer engineer and entrepreneur Steve Wozniak credited watching Star Trek and attending Star Trek conventions during his youth as a source of inspiration for co-founding Apple Inc. in 1976, which became the world's largest technology company by revenue. More broadly, the series greatly influenced public interest in the United States Space Program and education related to space exploration. The show's opening line 'to boldly go where no man has gone before' was drawn almost verbatim from a U.S. White House booklet on space produced after the Soviet Union's Sputnik 1 launch in 1957, demonstrating how the series aligned with and reinforced national space exploration ambitions.

A Trial of Seven is a rare form of trial by combat involving seven knights on each side, totaling 14 combatants, linked to the Faith of the Seven. The battle continues until one side is entirely defeated or yields, with the outcome seen as divine judgment by the seven gods.[1][2][3]

The Trial of Seven originated with the Andals over 6,000 years ago, brought across the Narrow Sea with their Faith of the Seven, who believed seven champions would prompt divine intervention. It is extremely rare, with notable instances including a challenge against King Maegor I Targaryen in 42 AC and Ser Duncan the Tall's trial in 209 AC at Ashford Meadow, the first in a century.[1][2][3][6]

Brazil's Digital ECA (Law No. 15.211/2025) mandates providers of pornographic content to implement reliable age verification systems at each access attempt, prohibiting self-declaration or simple disclaimers; data collected for verification cannot be used for other purposes, and minors are prevented from creating accounts.[2][3][5]

The Digital ECA bans paid loot boxes—randomized in-game purchases resembling gambling—in electronic games targeted at or accessible to minors under 18, according to age ratings; platforms must also block minors from content involving gambling addiction risks via age verification and protective settings.[2][3][4]

Escape From Duckov is a parody PvE extraction shooter developed by Team Soda that humorously riffs on Escape From Tarkov, featuring ducks instead of humans; it became a Steam hit selling over one million copies in its first week. The crossover is the first for Tarkov after eight years in early access, involving mutual new content between the two games.

The crossover begins on February 10, 2026, for Escape From Duckov, featuring a new map with duck versions of Tarkov bosses like Killa and Tagilla, a mount system with horses, and festival content; Tarkov content details and exact date are unconfirmed but expected around the same time.
