Tom Holland hilariously revealed in a new Esquire interview that “it definitely does” get musty in his Spider-Man suit during production, so “I probably get a new suit every two weeks, I reckon.” The 29-year-old actor is currently in production on “Spider-Man: Brand New Day,” his fourth standalone movie as the iconic web-slinger and his seventh overall Marvel movie. “I have such a good understanding of who Peter Parker is, and I have been so lucky that the fan base has been so vocal about what they love from the franchise,” Holland told the publication. “We’ve been able to really…

Philadelphia Eagles defensive tackle Jalen Carter has been suspended $57,222 for spitting on Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott prior to the first play from scrimmage during Thursday night’s NFL season opener, the league announced on Tuesday.

Carter will not face further punishment from the league and is eligible to play Sunday vs. the Kansas City Chiefs. While Carter will not be suspended another game, the $57,222 fine amount is equal to one game check, as Jones points out. The NFL…

SecurityBridge warned that CVE-2025-42957 allowed hackers with minimal system rights to mount “a complete system compromise with minimal effort required, where successful exploitation can easily lead to fraud, data theft, espionage, or the installation of ransomware.” The security firm went on to write: The attacker needs only low-level credentials on the SAP system (any valid user account with permissions to call the vulnerable RFC module and the specific S_DMIS authorization with activity 02), and no user interaction is required. The attack complexity is low and can be performed over the network, which is why the CVSS score is so high…

Dramatic increases in life expectancy are one of the defining achievements of the modern era. From 56 years for men and 60 for women in the UK a century ago, this vital measure of the quantity of life rose to 79 and 83 respectively in 2022. The trend towards increased longevity is global, although not all countries have seen gains on the same scale, and the pandemic sent it into temporary reverse.We probably don’t talk about this enough. It is remarkable that most of us can expect to live for so long and that deaths from diseases such as tuberculosis, and of women in childbirth,…

If we’ll ever find life outside our solar system, it will not be an instant discovery. Save for the slim possibility of an intelligent civilization beaming a message in our direction, evidence for aliens will most likely come from scrutinizing nearby rocky worlds by using giant telescopes to study their atmospheres for gases that could hint at living, breathing somethings dwelling unseen on the planet’s surface. This is no easy feat. For stars like our sun, no telescope will be capable of doing this for a generation. For smaller stars, we have only recently developed this capability thanks to the…
