The majority of personal gadgets feature LCD and OLED screens, but most just show information. To make these screens do more - like detecting touch or changing light levels - they need additional sensors. Researchers at Linköping University (LiU) in Sweden have invented a new kind of screen where all these sensor functions are built right into the screen's LEDs.

A couple of solar-sector manufacturers have a powerhouse agreement that reaches a unique benchmark. Thanks to a $400 million, three-year deal between Heliene and Suniva, solar panels and cells will be entirely made in the U.S., a unique combination until now. Electrek reports that to this point, solar cells — the contraption that turns sunlight into electricity — were imported.

Why the slowdown? Replacing the floppy disk system isn't a simple reboot, explains Ars Technica. SFMTA must overhaul the entire train-control system it's connected to, including a loop cable that "has less bandwidth than an old AOL dial-up modem," says spokesperson Michael Roccaforte. Paying for the new system: There are also budgetary issues for the project, which will run "hundreds of millions." While ridership is up year-over-year, SFMTA says it hasn't quite rebounded from the pandemic, with 433,000 weekday riders, about 68% of 2019.

Washington, D.C., continues to be at the forefront of energy efficiency. The District cut emissions by 36% between 2006-2021, according to the Carbon Free DC plan Mayor Muriel Bower released at the COP28 Local Climate Action Summit in Dubai in 2023. The plan's key strategies include phasing out on-site fossil fuel combustion in buildings, enabling more residents to walk, bike, and take public transit by reducing transit costs with free or reduced fares, and much more.

Hola! Soy Brenda, tu profesora de español. Welcome to another lesson, and today, is more of a cultural lesson about Argentina. As you know, I am from Argentina myself so what I would like to share with you today is information about transport in Argentina. Argentina as a country, it's quite big, actually, in fact, and there are different provinces around Argentina with their own different way of transportation, different lines and different ways to move around in cities and the countryside.
