Trump Says He Will Import Russian Diesel Fuel Amid High Prices

President Trump said Russia had agreed to ship potentially millions of tons of diesel fuel in the coming months. But the amounts would be small relative to global demand.

A teen used AI to plan a hiking route. It trapped him on a cliff.

A teenage hiker in Canada recently became another cautionary tale about the perils of overtrusting artificial intelligence. After relying on an AI-generated route to ascend Crown Mountain in British Columbia, the 16-year-old found himself stranded on a steep cliffside near a climbing route known as the “Widowmaker.” The wayward traveler’s position was so precarious, that it took roughly three hours to coordinate a proper rescue plan. “The boy was very scared. He definitely feared for his life,” search manager Paul Markey told North Shore News earlier this month. The teen’s position near Widowmaker’s final headwall prevented helicopter pilots from safely steering close enough to retrieve him. Instead, an onsite crew reached the hiker using a rope belay system, equipped him with additional protective gear, and then moved him to a better extraction location. As luck would have it, responders had also just completed a rescue certification training session earlier that day not far from the lost teen’s predicament. “It put him into a situation which was beyond his abilities, so things could have gone sideways pretty quickly,” Markey added. Despite major advancements in the industry, many popular AI products are still liable to produce results with unreliable, misleading, or outright false information. Generative AI has suggested hungry users add glue to thicken pizza sauce, claimed that snakes are mammals, and advised fixing a broken turn signal with something called “blinker fluid.” This isn’t the only AI-related hiking mishap, either. Barely a month before the Crown Mountain incident, a trio became stranded near Mount Shasta in California after using Google Gemini to help plan their trip. Among other issues, Gemini suggested they pack less food and water than they actually

A baby tyrannosaur possibly cannibalized its dead relative

Bitemarks on the fossilized jaw of a tyrannosaur called Albertosaurus appear to illustrate the first known example of scavenging raptors feasting on a much larger dinosaur The prehistoric snack scene is detailed in a recent study in the Journal of Paleontology. However, researchers, one alternative theory may point to an even darker fate. A close relative of Tyrannosaurus rex, Albertosaurus roamed its present-day namesake Canadian territory about 73 to 67 million years ago (Late Cretaceous period). It was the region’s undisputed apex predator,and regularly grew upwards of 30 feet long while weighing around 6,000 pounds. But even a fearsome dinosaur like Albertosaurus ultimately succumbed to injury, illness, and old age. In this case, paleontologists analyzed fragments of an immature specimen who died when it was 8 to 10 years old. Despite only being a “teenager” at the time of death, the Albertosaurus was already over 19 feet long and weighed about 1,170 pounds. Interestingly, the tooth marks on the dinosaur’s lower jaw suggest an unexpected postmortem scenario. Paleontologists didn’t find any evidence of bone healing, which strongly implies the Albertosaurus received the bites around its time of death. This means whoever dined on the dinosaur was a scavenger, or at least an especially hungry carnivore—and they were much smaller than their meal. “This turns everything on its head, because you’re dealing with a very small dinosaur eating a very big, mean, nasty dinosaur like a tyrannosaur,” study co-author and University of Alberta (UA) paleontologist Philip Currie explained in a recent video. Paleontologists currently suspect the most likely explanation is that a pack of dromaeosauridae (raptors) chowed down on the dead Albertosaurus. Made famous by the dinosaurs depict

Sony’s new USB-C spatial mic captures the world around you without capturing you in wires

Sony spent 2026 releasing tons of top-notch playback products, from Bluetooth headphones to DJ-friendly party speakers to surprisingly affordable pro IEMs. Now the Japanese giant introduces something to capture immersive content you can play on all those audio accessories. The ECM-AX10 is a compact USB-C microphone for vloggers, mobile filmmakers, and content creators, and the world’s first Eclipsa Audio-certified mic for smartphones. Sony See It Featuring four omnidirectional capsules, the ECM-AX10 can record Ambisonics, binaural, and stereo. This lets you capture the sense of space, direction, and distance appropriate for the project/format, whether it’s travel reels or festival feels, sports cheers or reviewing gear. Ambisonics’s four-channel 48 kHz/32-bit float capabilities, plus Sony’s Spatial Audio Video Tool, mean you can publish a full-sphere Eclipsa Audio experience on YouTube, based on the open IAMF (Immersive Audio Model and Format) standard. The Binaural recording’s two channels of that 48 kHz/16-, 24-, or 32-bit quality can be translated to 360 Reality Audio for headphone-optimized 3D rendering. And stereo is, well, stereo. You know it, you love it, you want some more of it. It makes the microphone compatible with general recording and video apps and whatever social channel you prefer. As for the package these containers come in, the ECM-AX10 is 24g, has a Selfie Mode for rear or front-facing alignment, includes an attenuator (ATT) switch that drops sensitivity -20dBFS to avoid overloading (plus additional Noise Cut controls), features a 3-axis gyroscope and 3-axis accelerometer to keep audio aligned with the video’s orientation, and offers a 3.5mm minijack for wired monitoring (a great opportunity to try those Sony IER-M500 IEMs, or others). There’s also a
