Mizoram reports India`s highest cancer cases; stomach, lung cancer leading cause

Mizoram has the highest cancer incidence and mortality rates in India, with Aizawl district reporting an age-adjusted incidence rate of 269.4 per one lakh men, health officials said on Sunday. A senior Health and Family Welfare Department official said stomach and lung cancers are the leading causes of cancer in the state, largely driven by high tobacco and betel nut consumption, dietary habits, and genetic factors.

Lenovo’s Foldable Gaming Handheld Is Too Cool to Remain Just a Concept

We may earn a commission from links on this page. Gaming handhelds are in a bit of a rough spot right now. The Nintendo Switch 2 costs significantly more than its predecessor, the Steam Deck is out of stock in most regions, and the Xbox handheld is prone to bugs. Plus, they're all huge. Lenovo has been one of the better companies in this space of late, releasing two of my favorite gaming handhelds running, but the company apparently isn't done with handhelds yet. At Mobile World Congress, Lenovo showed off its newest concept, the modular Legion Go Fold handheld, a device that tries to solve pretty much every problem in gaming handhelds through one neat trick: It's also a foldable tablet.

After decades of streaming and digital, music fans returning to some old-school ways – National

Somewhere in a box in my crawlspace is a silver first-gen iPod Nano, which was my gateway drug into the Apple universe. It’s probably tucked away with a first-gen iPod Touch. Sitting on a shelf in my home office are two old-school iPods. One is the red-and-white special U2 edition that I bought in October 2024. Next to it is a white fourth-generation unit, the first with the touch-sensitive click wheel, which I somehow acquired about 10 years ago. Elsewhere in the house, I have a couple of DVD players I no longer use, along with a Blu-ray player that got disconnected due to underuse. And back in the crawlspace is a Pioneer LaserDisk machine from some time around 1995, along with a cache of the massive 12-inch discs it used. I kept them out of sheer nostalgia. I consider them museum pieces ...

How to Manage Your Increasingly Desperate App Notifications

My best friend messaged me on Facebook Messenger. It wasn’t urgent, so I swiped the notification away, making a mental note to reply later. Ten minutes later, Facebook sends another notification. “Reminder: [My friend] sent you a message.” This is clingy, even for Facebook. And it’s not the only app increasingly desperate for any crumb of attention.In just the last couple months, I’ve personally gotten dozens of what I can only call desperation notifications. Push alerts from apps that don’t really need anything, but would really like it if I gave them some attention anyway. These include, but are not nearly limited to, the following:The Disney+ app let me know that because I watched The Simpsons, I might be interested in watching The Simpsons Movie (which I also recently watched).Discord ...
