When rumors started to swirl that Apple would explore the idea of dropping physical keys in favor of a Touch Bar-like interface that swallowed the traditional keyboard, I can’t say I was pleased. But if it looks like this, I’m in. This bit of inspired art is the product of Turkish designer Furkan Kasap. Kasap reimagined the keyboard as we know it, placing Apple‘s default apps front and center, with some not-so-subtle reconfiguring below. Back are the function keys, which is surely a positive. The Touch Bar still looks to be mostly intact, providing both a seamless app switching environment,…

A team of scientists today unveiled the discovery of a new kind of brain neuron called the rosehip cell. What makes this find important? It may be unique to the human brain – and it’s found in the same area thought to be responsible for consciousness. A team of international researchers consisting of dozens of scientists made the discovery after running complex RNA sequencing experiments on tissue samples from the cerebral cortices of two brain donors. The results were then confirmed with live tissue taken from patients who’d undergone brain surgery. Upon discovering the rosehip cell, the researchers immediately tried…

Spare a thought for the gamers who didn’t have ready access to strategy guides or the internet back in the day, and had to come up with their own ways of remembering crucial in-game information. Feeling nostalgic? One Twitter user showed off her dad’s notes, which hark back to those early days. Graphic designer @ishikoro18 posted pictures over the weekend of the notes her father kept for games such as Silent Hill 2, Kingdom Hearts, and Final Fantasy X-2. And holy crap — Prima Games, eat your heart out: 父親が昔書いてたゲームの攻略メモがやばい pic.twitter.com/84TMg7myYH — あ🍎べ (@ishikoro18) August 24, 2018 いろいろ。あと夕闇探検隊とかデメントとか鬼武者とかゼルダシリーズとか pic.twitter.com/zs7KeCw6aV — あ🍎べ (@ishikoro18) August 24,…
