How to Fix Randomly Crashing Apps on Your Pixel 10

If you've been experiencing random crashes on your Pixel 10 smartphone, you're not alone. Over the weekend, multiple Reddit users complained that their Pixel 10 phones, which only just hit the market in August, were already facing severe slowdowns and frequent crashes while trying to load apps. Worse yet, the problem seemed to persist across all apps and models of the phone, leaving users with little they could actually do on their new devices. "If an app does open and load it won't let me touch anything and it crashes," user cdriese said, with a number of others sharing a similar sentiment.The unfortunate news took me as a bit of a surprise, since I experienced no such issues while reviewing the Pixel 10 and Pixel 10 Pro at launch, both of which I quite liked. But the problem, it seems, o...

New antibiotic to curb dangerous gut bacterium with a low dose

The new antibiotic EVG7 has demonstrated the ability to fight the dangerous gut bacterium C. difficile with only a minimal dose, a new study showed. C. difficile is a persistent intestinal bacterium that can cause severe illness, particularly in older people and those with weakened health. The bacterium produces a toxin that leads to severe diarrhoea. Current treatments are not always effective, as the infection often returns. "With existing antibiotics, C. difficile sometimes reappears just weeks after treatment," said researcher and lead author Elma Mons, from the varsity. "This happens partly because the bacterium leaves behind spores, which can develop into new bacteria, causing the infection to return," Mons said. The team investigated the effect of a low dose of EVG7 on C. diff...

You Can Now Hide Sponsored Ads in Google Search

Did you know you can customize Google to filter out garbage? Take these steps for better search results, including adding my work at Lifehacker as a preferred source.Google's sponsored ads are generally a pain. Not only are they often not relevant to what you're searching for, they can occasionally be malicious: You might think you're clicking on a legitimate link for something you've searched for, but you're actually heading somewhere else entirely. Together with all the new AI components Google has introduced in recent years, it's increasingly tough to get the search results you're actually looking for. But there's some small good news on this front: As initially reported by The Verge, Google's sponsored ads are getting a little less annoying. Previously, these ads would appear one after...

Young Indian women account for seven out of 10 autoimmune disease patients

Women, especially young, account for seven out of 10 patients with autoimmune diseases, said health experts, emphaising the need for increasing awareness and early screening among females. Autoimmune diseases are chronic conditions where the body`s immune system mistakenly attacks healthy cells and tissues. Common conditions include rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, thyroiditis, psoriasis, and Sjogren’s syndrome. These diseases can affect joints, skin, blood vessels, and even internal organs like the heart or lungs. The condition is far more common among women, especially between the ages of 20 and 50, when hormonal and lifestyle factors are most active. Many times, with a lack of awareness and other burdens, women tend to ignore their symptoms, leading to worsening outcomes. “In my outpati...
