Paleontologists working in southern China have identified a new species of sauropod dinosaur that appears to belong to a group never before documented anywhere in East Asia.
Na esteira dessas manchetes, quatro organizações não governamentais entraram com uma ação judicial contra a Apple Brasil por não realizar a verificação de idade em apps de apostas, com menção ao jogo Casino Roulette: Roulettist, disponível na App Store. O processo foi protocolado na Justiça de São Paulo e cobra indenização de R$300 milhões por danos morais.
Além do jogo supracitado, o advogado da Anced, Márlon Reis (um dos autores da ação), menciona que há pelo menos seis títulos de jogos que simulam cassino e estão disponíveis para download por menores, mesmo que a classificação seja para 18 anos ou mais.
Segundo o processo, a ausência de controle etário permite que crianças baixem o app, adquiram créditos e apostem sem qualquer restrição. Nesse cenário, as ONGs argumentam que a Apple tem responsabilidade direta no caso por intermediar a compra de créditos dentro do jogo, sem verificar quem realiza os pagamentos.
Não se trata de entretenimento gratuito ou meramente simbólico. O usuário emprega recursos financeiros reais para adquirir fichas, arrisca-as nas partidas e, depois de perdê-las, é estimulado a realizar novos pagamentos para continuar jogando.
Além da indenização, as entidades pedem que a Apple suspenda todos os aplicativos de cassino disponíveis em sua loja até comprovar a adoção de um sistema efetivo de verificação de idade. A ação solicita que a Justiça fixe multa diária de R$500 mil caso a Apple não cumpra as medidas em dez dias.
A Apple disse ao Estadão que a verificação de idade para apps destinados a maiores de 18 anos “está em fase de testes e deverá ser lançada nos próximos meses”. Ela também destacou que já oferece ferramentas de controle parental.

Saturday at Apple TV’s San Diego Comic-Con panel, Callum Turner made a surprise virtual appearance to unveil the first teaser for the highly anticipated new science fiction series “Neuromancer,” based on the award-winning novel of the same name by William Gibson. The 10-episode series stars Turner, Briana Middleton, Mark Strong, Joseph Lee, Peter Sarsgaard, and Clémence Poésy, and premieres globally on Apple TV on Friday, January 22, 2027, with two episodes, followed by one new episode every Friday through March 19, 2027.
“Neuromancer” follows a damaged, top-rung super-hacker named Case (Turner) who is thrust into a web of digital espionage and high-stakes crime with his partner Molly (Middleton), a razor-girl assassin, as they pull off a heist on a corporate dynasty with untold secrets. The ensemble cast also includes Max Irons, Dane DeHaan, Junia Rees, Jordan Kouamé, Emma Laird, Marc Menchaca, André De Shields and Isabella Pappas.

The debut novel by Gibson, “Neuromancer” has been praised as one of the first and most respected works in the cyberpunk genre and has received numerous accolades, including the Nebula Award, the Philip K. Dick Award and the Hugo Award. The novel served as the first book in the “Sprawl” trilogy and was followed by “Count Zero” and “Mona Lisa Overdrive.”

A dried-out felt-tip marker and a snapped-off piece of molded black plastic sold for $857,600 at a Sotheby's auction on Wednesday.
What otherwise might have been worthless bits of trash commanded the highest bids due to where the two items were 57 years ago—lifting off aboard NASA's Apollo 11 spacecraft on humanity's first mission to land astronauts on the Moon. More than flown odds and ends, one was the problem that almost stranded Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin on the lunar surface, and the other was the simple solution to saving the mission.
"Houston, Tranquility. Do you have a way of showing the configuration of the engine arm circuit breaker?" radioed Aldrin to Mission Control after realizing he or Armstrong had inadvertently broken off the top of the circuit breaker switch that would enable their ascent engine to ignite, beginning their trip back to Earth. "The reason I'm asking is because the end of it appears to be broken off. I think we can push it back in again. I'm not sure we could pull it out if we pushed it in, though."

Schwarzman Centre, Oxford Headlong’s take on Karel Čapek’s 1920 tale of romance and robots is rife with timely debates about tech’s threat but at times the philosophical discussions drag on
If our world is currently thinking through the brave new future of generative AI and super intelligence, Karel Čapek’s 1920 play RUR: Rossum’s Universal Robots proves the notion of robot consciousness and rebellion is not a new anxiety. So does Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein, which Čapek’s drama resembles in its philosophical debates and moral warnings, despite its futurism.
Ella Road adapts Čapek’s play for our times in this Headlong and Schwarzman Centre co-production, its science apparently informed by research from Oxford University academics, which gives it a cutting-edge, real-world underpinning.
