U.S. officials in Signal chat left their Venmo data exposed online

Data from several U.S. officials' Venmo accounts has been found exposed online, including their contacts and even transaction histories for some. This follows Signalgate earlier this week, and the subsequent revelation that involved officials' private contact information and passwords could be found online.

If I had a nickel for every time a breach of tech security by the Trump administration was revealed this week, I'd now have three nickels.

Millions of Americans are about to see yet another eclipse

Fresh off a spectacular total lunar eclipse, millions of Americans will soon witness a solar eclipse on March 29, 2025.

The good news is, it's happening at a decent hour (beginning around 6:30 a.m. to 7 a.m. ET). Yet it'll be visible to far fewer people. Everyone in the lower 48 states and much of the Americas could see (weather-permitting) the recent lunar eclipse, but in the U.S., the coming partial solar eclipse will be largely limited to the Northeast region.

It'll be, quite literally, a...

The Rule of Jenny Pen review: John Lithgow and Geoffrey Rush go psycho-biddy

It's time for horror fans to get to know James Ashcroft. The New Zealand actor turned writer/director awed critics in 2021 with Coming Home in the Dark, a movie so scary that it literally knocked me out of my seat. Now, he's back with a sophisticated yet elegantly demented follow-up, The Rule of Jenny Pen, a psycho-biddy thriller that pits heralded actors John Lithgow and Geoffrey Rush against each other in a deranged battle of wills. 

Traditionally, this horror subgenre — which is also...

When the urge to gamble strikes, try mindfulness

Here's an experiment to try at home: Listen to a sports podcast, scroll social media, or use an app with native ads, and see how many times you encounter an ad for online gambling.

The double dare version of the experiment is to attempt it during March Madness, a weeks-long college basketball tournament in the U.S. during which people are expected to gamble a whopping $3.1 billion. That's up from $2.7 billion last year, according to the American Gaming Association.

Webb telescopes new photo isnt just rare. Its psychedelic.

Space is phantasmagorical.

Astronomers using the powerful James Webb Space Telescope to survey distant galaxies spotted an unusual, chance phenomenon called an "Einstein ring." It's not an actual object, but a warped, mind-bending optical illusion.

"The picture features a rare cosmic phenomenon — an Einstein ring. What appears to be a single, strangely shaped galaxy is actually two galaxies far apart," the European Space Agency explained online.

The closest potentially Earth-like exoplanet probably cant host life

Only a few years ago, astronomers heralded the discovery of a rocky world circling the sun's closest space neighbor, Proxima Centauri. 

The star, just four light-years away, is known as a red dwarf, or M-type, and is quite different from Earth's own. Although the exoplanet, Proxima b, orbits extremely close — a year there is only 11 Earth-days — its star's relatively smaller size and lower temperature could mean this world has the right conditions for liquid water to pool on its...
