Why being 45 years is the new protein prime for Indian women

For the average Indian woman crossing 45 years of age, the subtle changes in her body are often dismissed as the inevitable ageing. But what is frequently labelled as a slowing metabolism is actually a high-stakes biological disappearing act. As estrogen levels retreat during perimenopause, the very muscle that anchors a woman’s strength and metabolic health begins to vanish, fundamentally altering the body’s internal architecture. This National Protein Day, which is observed on February 27, mid-day debunks myths of the traditional Indian diet and revealing why the standard dal-chawal routine is failing women when they need strength the most. We aren`t just talking about nutrition; we are talking about a medical necessity.  Sandipa Sen, senior clinical nutritionist at Manipal Hospital, a...

Radiohead tells ICE ‘go f**k yourselves’ for using song in immigration video – National

Garmin Just Added the Gear-Tracking Features I’ve Been Dying For

We may earn a commission from links on this page. If you track your runs (and bike rides, and all your other exercise) with a Garmin device, you’ve probably already found its gear tracking features. This is how I realized I'd put over 1,000 miles on my favorite Nikes. Until recently, the usefulness stopped there. But in a new (free) update, Garmin has introduced a ton of new gear tracking features, including one I’ve been hoping for ever since I bought my first pair of trail shoes.  Now, gear tracking isn’t just for shoes. If you ride a bike, you can now count your bike as a piece of gear, or even individual components of your bike, like the frame or the tires. Other now trackable types of gear include skis, surfboards, boots, boats, skates, and wheelchairs. These new...

Netflix walks away from Warner Bros deal, clearing the path for Paramount – National

Netflix is walking away from its offer to buy Warner Bros. Discovery’s studio and streaming business, in a stunning move that effectively puts Paramount in a position to take over its storied Hollywood rival. On Thursday, Warner’s board announced that Skydance-owned Paramount’s latest offer to buy the entire company for $31 per share was superior to the agreement it had previously struck with Netflix. Warner gave Netflix four business days to come up with a counteroffer — but Netflix instead responded less than two hours later, declining to raise its proposal. It said the new price it would have to pay made the deal “no longer financially attractive.”“We believe we would have been strong stewards of Warner Bros.′ iconic brands,” Netflix’s co-CEOs Ted Sarandos and Greg Peters said in a join...

Firefox Now Lets You Disable All Current (and Future) AI Features

Since ChatGPT kicked off the generative AI revolution in 2022, it seems like every company under the sun has tried to stuff AI features into their products in one way or another. Sometimes, these features can be useful; often, they're not, only serving as proof these companies are "keeping up with the times." Can you even say you're a tech company if you aren't all-in on AI in 2026?There's nothing wrong with companies offering AI features to users, so long as they also offer easy ways to disable them. Some customers don't want AI in their day-to-day products; anecdotally, I know many do not. Give us an off switch, though, and it's all good. The issue is when these features are not only offered, they're made mandatory. Unfortunately, that's the road many companies seem to be taking. Perhaps...
