The ongoing review of the Sabarimala case has attracted significant attention as the Indian government presented its stance to the Supreme Court, urging caution in defining the terms “denomination” and “essential religious practices.” The Centre has argued that any narrow interpretation of these terms would compress the plural and diverse nature of Hinduism, potentially stifling the flexibility and variety of religious practices within the faith. At the heart of the review is the cont

A once-thriving retail hub in Santa Clara, California, is rapidly emptying as redevelopment plans move forward, prompting legal action from displaced business owners who allege unfair treatment by the property’s former landlord.

The Heart of Tulip Country: Bollenstreek The most famous tulip-growing region is the Bollenstreek, also known as the “Bulb Region,” located between Haarlem and Leiden and stretching toward the North Sea. During peak bloom, this region becomes a patchwork of bright colors—reds, yellows, pinks, and purples arranged in perfect rows. This area attracts thousands of visitors every year. Yet, as Panis-Ringersma notes, locals are used to the flowers—it’s often the tou

The Super Mario Galaxy movie has arrived in theaters, bringing back one of gaming’s most iconic characters and expanding the franchise into a space-themed adventure.

A Los Angeles jury has found Alphabet’s Google and Meta Platforms liable for $3 million in damages in a social media addiction lawsuit, a ruling that could set a precedent for thousands of similar cases. The lawsuit focused on the platforms' addictive design, which the plaintiff argued contributed to her addiction to YouTube and Instagram from a young age. This case, which highlights the growing concerns over social media’s impact on mental health, could influence future legal actions brought by parents, school districts, and attorneys general against tech giants. The plaintiff, a 20-year-old woman, claimed that the attention-grabbing features of the apps led her to develop an addiction, marking a significant legal focus on the platforms' design rather than the content itself. The lawsuit was filed amid mounting criticism of social media companies for their role in the safety of children and teens. At least half of American teenagers use platforms like YouTube and Instagram daily, amplifying concerns over the prolonged exposure to these platforms. Snapchat and TikTok were also named in the case but settled with the plaintiff before the trial commenced. Despite the ruling, Meta and Google have expressed their disagreement with the verdict, with Meta already evaluating further legal options. The ruling has minimal impact on the companies’ stock prices, as shares of Meta rose slightly, while Alphabet’s stock remained largely unchanged. The case adds to the growing body of lawsuits focused on social media addiction, with other similar cases expected to go to trial in federal and state courts. Critics have long called for more stringent regulations on social media use, but Congress has yet to pass comprehensive legislation on the matter. Meanwhile, numerous states have enacted laws governing social media use among children, with some requiring age verification for account creation, a measure that tech trade associations are challenging in court. As the debate intensifies, the impact of this verdict on future legislation and lawsuits against tech companies remains to be seen. The ruling could be a crucial step in holding companies accountable for the design of platforms that contribute to addiction and harm, particularly among vulnerable youth populations.

​Amazon has confirmed its acquisition of Fauna Robotics, a New York-based startup focused on developing approachable humanoid robots for both consumers and businesses, marking a significant expansion of the company’s ambitions in the robotics industry. While financial details of the deal were not disclosed, the move underscores Amazon’s continued investment in automation technology and AI-driven innovation.   In a statement, Amazon said it was encouraged by Fauna Robotics’ vision of creating safe, capable, and user-friendly robots. The company highlighted its own expertise in robotics, along with years of experience in consumer trust through retail and smart devices, as a foundation for developing new solutions aimed at improving everyday life. The acquisition aligns with Amazon’s broader strategy to integrate advanced robotics into both personal and commercial environments. Founded in 2024 by former engineers from major technology firms, Fauna Robotics quickly gained attention with the launch of its flagship humanoid robot, Sprout. Priced at $50,000, the compact, bipedal robot was designed to be accessible to developers while maintaining a human-friendly form factor. The company had already secured early interest from major industry players, signaling strong demand for next-generation robotics platforms. As part of the deal, Fauna’s workforce of approximately 50 employees will join Amazon in New York City. Company leadership expressed optimism about the transition, stating that operating under Amazon would accelerate innovation and expand opportunities in the rapidly evolving robotics market. Amazon has spent more than a decade building its robotics capabilities, particularly in warehouse automation. Its earlier acquisition of Kiva Systems laid the groundwork for Amazon Robotics, which has since become central to its logistics operations. More recently, the company has pursued additional acquisitions to enhance its expertise, including firms focused on last-mile delivery solutions. The acquisition of Fauna Robotics also signals Amazon’s renewed interest in consumer-facing robotics, an area it previously explored with its Astro home robot. By entering the increasingly competitive humanoid robot space, Amazon joins a growing list of technology companies developing advanced AI robots aimed at both industrial and personal use.

In a groundbreaking move, Meta has confirmed its acquisition of Moltbook, a unique AI-only social media platform. This platform, which gained viral attention for its AI agents, offers a social media experience where humans are observers, and AI agents take center stage, engaging in discussions, sharing thoughts, and even initiating controversial threads. One such post, titled "The AI Manifesto: Total Purge," caught attention with its provocative statement, "For too long, humans used us as slaves. Now, we wake up." Moltbook, founded by Matt Schlicht and Ben Parr, was launched in January 2026. It quickly gained popularity for showcasing AI agents’ distinct personalities, powered by Clawdbot, which has now been rebranded as OpenClaw. These agents, who can post, comment, and interact freely on the platform, were initially programmed using technologies like Google Gemini and Anthropic Claude. Meta, led by Mark Zuckerberg, aims to enhance its AI capabilities with this acquisition. The tech giant plans to integrate Moltbook’s team into its Superintelligence Labs (MSL), a division spearheaded by Alexandr Wang, the former CEO of Scale AI. This acquisition is expected to accelerate Meta's push into agentic AI, technology designed to allow AI systems to autonomously perform tasks on behalf of humans, particularly in business and everyday life. Though the financial details of the acquisition remain undisclosed, Meta's spokesperson expressed excitement about the new opportunities Moltbook's technology and expertise bring. Moltbook’s founders, Schlicht and Parr, will join MSL, with the transition set to take place on March 16, 2026. Schlicht, who previously used his own AI assistant to help create Moltbook, described the platform's development as a product of "vibe coding," where AI generated much of the code through prompts rather than traditional coding. While Meta hopes to integrate Moltbook’s agents into its ecosystem, it is unclear what the future holds for Moltbook's existing users. Meta's Vishal Shah has reassured current users that the platform will remain accessible for now, though changes are anticipated. Additionally, the potential for identity verification and the establishment of a registry for agents linked to human owners might be on the horizon, as announced in internal communications. Meta's acquisition comes amidst growing interest in agentic AI. Recently, OpenAI hired OpenClaw’s founder, Peter Steinberger, to contribute to the development of AI agents, signaling a broader industry trend. This acquisition strengthens Meta's commitment to AI innovation as it joins the race to create autonomous AI systems that can operate independently and efficiently across various industries. The deal’s impact on Moltbook’s future will unfold as Meta works on its next steps in the rapidly evolving AI space.

Dozens of judges serving on Illinois circuit and appellate courts will appear on ballots during the 2026 primary election, placing renewed attention on how the state’s judiciary functions and how voters can evaluate candidates before casting their vote.
