Hands-On Windows 125: Notepad

In this episode, Mikah Sargent walks through step-by-step instructions for turning off the new Apple Intelligence features that are enabled by default on iPhones, iPads, and Macs running the latest software. Disabling Apple Intelligence will turn off capabilities like enhanced writing tools, accessing ChatGPT via Siri, and more.

- Some users may want to disable Apple Intelligence and stick with standard device functionality
 
- On a Mac:

 - This will disable Apple Intelligence features and revert Siri to basic functionality
 
- On an iPhone or iPad:
 
 - Go to Settings > Apple Intelligence & Siri

Tech News Weekly 372: Return of the Pebble Smartwatch

What do schools, universities, motivated STEM students, NASA, and the space industry have in common, all across the globe? The Universities Space Research Association! You may not have heard of this group before, but it's high time you did. Their new President and CEO, Dr. Elsayed Talaat, joins us to discuss the association's long history, educational and industry affiliations, and perhaps most impressively, their vast areas of research. If it's space, cutting-edge, and cool, the USRA is probably engaged. Join us for this fascinating look at one of the best education and research facilitators anywhere--the USRA.
 

Headlines:
 
• Astronomers mistakenly identified Elon Musk's Tesla Roadster as an asteroid, highlighting the challenges of tracking an increasing number of objects in space
 
• AstroForge, a space mining company, announced their target asteroid for a mission launching next month, following calls for increased transparency from the scientific community
 
• SpaceX is completing construction on their fifth and final Crew Dragon capsule, as the current fleet is expected to meet NASA's needs until Starship becomes operational 
 
• A newly discovered asteroid, 2024 YR4, has a small chance (1 in 83) of impacting Earth in 2032; NASA emphasizes that an impact is highly unlikely but will continue to track the object and refine the trajectory plot
 

Main Topic - All the Way with the USRA:
 
• The USRA was founded in 1969 to connect universities with NASA projects, particularly for lunar sample research during the Apollo era
 
• The organization has since expanded to cover a wide range of space-related research areas, including astrophysics, heliophysics, Earth science, space nuclear propulsion, artificial intelligence, quantum computing, and microgravity science
 
• The USRA plays a key role in workforce development by providing internship and scholarship opportunities for students interested in space research
 
• The organization has a consortium of 121 member universities worldwide, which helps guide USRA's research focus and advocate for the interests of the academic space research community
 
• The USRA's funding primarily comes from competitively awarded NASA contracts, grants, and cooperative agreements, as well as some funding from the Department of Defense and Department of Energy
 
• President and CEO Dr. Talaat emphasizes the importance of collaboration and cross-disciplinary research in advancing space science and technology 
 
• The USRA's Lunar and Planetary Institute has been a key player in lunar research and exploration since the Apollo era, and continues to offer internship programs to inspire and train the next generation of space scientists
 
• Dr. Talaat highlights the critical role of space weather research in protecting technological infrastructure and ensuring the safety of astronauts and pilots
 
• He encourages young people to get involved in space research, emphasizing the excitement of scientific discovery and the real-world applications that benefit society
