He came before a panel of sharks including Namita Thapar, Vineeta Singh, Varun Alagh, Viraj Bahl and Kunal Bahl, asking for Rs 1 crore for 1% equity. Parag began his pitch with an emotional story. He said, “Sharks, Khushi is a two-year-old girl. Let’s listen to her growth milestones. At three months old, she couldn’t move her head. At nine months old, she couldn’t crawl.

Last Updated:January 08, 2026, 21:55 IST The central government wants to maintain the status of air purifiers as luxury goods that are categorised under the 18 percent tax slab The legal tussle arose from a petition, which contended that air purifiers cannot be treated as luxury items given the “extreme emergency crisis” caused by severe air pollution in Delhi. (Image: PTI/File) The Centre has strongly opposed a plea to classify air purifiers as essential health tools so as to slash GST on the device. Despite the worsening air quality in Delhi-NCR, the central government wants to maintain the status of air purifiers as luxury goods that are categorised under the 18 per cent tax slab. According to an affidavit filed before the Delhi High Court, the Centre argued that any judicial intervention to slash GST rates will disrupt the established constitutional GST framework. Officials said the GST Council is the exclusive constitutional body under Article 279A empowered to recommend tax rates. It submitted that for the court to direct a rate reduction or compel the …

The incident, which occurred during what police describe as a “routine area domination exercise,” has sparked controversy and led to demands for accountability. DCP (Trans-Hindon) Nimish Patil confirmed the video was recorded during an “area domination exercise” carried out by Kaushambi police station officials. (Representational) The video, widely shared online, shows a senior police officer placing what appears to be a smartphone on the back of a man and declaring the individual was “from Bangladesh.” The officer is heard telling a woman and a man, “Don’t tell a lie; we have a machine that can detect a lie.” Throughout the exchange, the woman and a minor girl standing next to her insist they are from Araria in Bihar and show documents on a mobile phone, but the group of half a dozen or so personnel appear unconvinced. DCP (Trans-Hindon) …

Published by Webster

Last Updated:December 07, 2025, 20:10 IST The device was developed as part of his research into the so-called Gravity Ageing Hypothesis, a concept suggesting that gravity may directly influence human ageing. News18 Following earlier hints about his newest venture, Zomato founder and CEO Deepinder Goyal has offered an update on ‘Temple’, a device designed to monitor brain blood flow. On Sunday, he shared a “Coming Soon” post across social media, featuring an image of the device, though no details about its appearance or technical specifications were revealed. Goyal has previously described Temple as an “experimental device to calculate Brain Flow accurately, in real-time, and continuously.” The device is part of his ongoing research into the Gravity Ageing Hypothesis, a theory proposing that gravity may play a direct role in the human ageing process. Temple’s official website states, “The future of health starts where no one’s looking. Inside your brain.” In posts on November 15, Goyal explained that his hypothesis is “scientific yet unconventional” and suggested that gravity could influence lifespan. I’m not sharing this as …

Your Stream Deck’s ‘device not supported’ error should fix itself if you log in

Your Stream Deck’s ‘device not supported’ error should fix itself if you log in

Published by Webster

Did your Stream Deck sprout a red “Device Not Supported” badge where a button used to be? If so, you were probably using BarRaider’s popular plug-ins, which apparently check to see if StreamDeck.exe is digitally signed — and it just so happens that Elgato’s digital signature expired yesterday (see image below). But as of 5PM ET, closing and re-opening the app should fix it, as long as you log into Elgato’s marketplace first (inside your Stream Deck app) so it can update the plugin. My colleague Richard Lawler and I just checked, and everything’s working smoothly. But also, Elgato’s digital certificate still looks like it’s expired to me: perhaps the Corsair brand found a workaround? Here’s the BarRaider update and an apology: Here’s what Elgato said in its own Discord earlier: Disclaimer: We do not own any of the content, ideas, images, or text presented here.

36 people ‘buried’ alive to test device that can be crucial for survival during an avalanche in snowy regions | Technology News

36 people ‘buried’ alive to test device that can be crucial for survival during an avalanche in snowy regions | Technology News

Published by Parlour News

A group of 36 volunteers were ‘buried’ alive during a study for science. The new clinical trial has found that a user-carried avalanche safety device can prevent hypoxemia and hypercapnia for a significant amount of time in case a person is trapped alive under snow and debris. This can be critical in life and death situations. The volunteers’ safety was, of course, monitored constantly and were taken out as soon as their health parameters showed signs of dropping below a certain level. The randomised and blinded study was conducted at a field site in Italy between January and March 2023. The test evaluated a novel airflow device designed to channel air from surrounding snow to the user’s airways. Unlike conventional systems, it operates without supplemental oxygen or a mouthpiece. The research was published in the Journal of American Medical Association. Story continues below this ad A total of 36 healthy volunteers aged 18 to 60 years were enrolled, with 24 completing the trial. Participants were buried under at least 50 cm of snow in prone …

Details leak about Jony Ive’s new ‘screen-free’ OpenAI device

Published by Webster

Altman suggested that the acquisition could increase OpenAI’s value by $1 trillion, and envisioned a “family of devices” being born from the partnership. Information about the first device, which Altman is aiming to release by late 2026, has been kept tightly under wraps since its development was confirmed last year over concerns that competitors will set about trying to copy the product before it’s launched to the public. Altman dropped some hints during the call that shape our expectations, however, including that it will be unobtrusive, fully aware of a user’s life and surroundings, and will serve as a “third core device” a person would put on a desk after a MacBook Pro and an iPhone. OpenAI is already predicting that the device will be popular, with Altman saying that it will ship “faster than any company has ever shipped 100 million of something new before.” Altman told OpenAI employees on the call that they have “the chance to do the biggest thing we’ve ever done as a company here.” The Journal reports that Ive …
