Include fruit or vegetables. Most older adults don’t get the daily recommended 1½ to 2 cups of fruit and 2 to 3 cups of veggies. The antioxidants in produce help prevent cell damage linked to conditions like heart disease and cancer, according to Dueñas-Tanbonliong. Produce also offers fiber.

If you only do one thing, do this. The biggest power hog in your laptop is, by far, the screen. The brighter it is, the more power it consumes. Unless you’re working under direct sunlight, you probably don’t need it at its highest setting. Lowering the brightness is as simple as tapping a function key…

The team members went through a process of incrementally determining what elements and molecules the bacterial strain could grow on.

His next post, just two hours later, appeared to suggest that the attacks were, at least in part, motivated by a wild claim that Iran…
There are some minor multitasking improvements—it’s easy to put two apps side by side in split-screen, and you can move the slider in between them to resize the apps, even stow one far to the side for easy access. But you still can’t use three apps simultaneously (I miss the OnePlus Open’s implementation of this.)…
