Rondeau's high-resolution camera traps included a DSLR camera in a waterproof casing. Emmanuel Rondeau, wildlife photographerBut there’s still more work to be done. As a keystone species, tigers are essential to a healthy ecosystem – and without them, the 130-million-year-old rainforests around the Belum-Temengor complex could be threatened, too.

Photo: Anthony Devlin/Zuma PressNetwork carriers, looking to build new business around 5G, are exploring nascent technology that would allow them to better and more quickly deliver certain apps and services on their network—but this technology, known as network slicing, could potentially run afoul of net-neutrality regulations. In the current model, all data traffic from phones is typically funneled through the same network. Carriers are able to prioritize the voice calls that they handle on that network, but they rarely have visibility into what else users are doing through other apps. In other words, someone using a videoconferencing telehealth app has no priority over someone scrolling social media or streaming video—despite the fact that faster delivery is much more critical for that service, said Chris Sambar , head of network at AT&T .

The company makes 3D-printed footwear. Footwear manufacturing is inherently wasteful and time consuming. Hilos' technology works like this: When a customer purchases a shoe, Hilos makes another one available in a matter of days. Hilos makes soles from a type of plastic, technically TPU, or thermoplastic polyurethane, that is made from 80% recycled material. "If you started with the premise of, 'I want to make a new footwear company,' how would you do it?

După ce au fost salvați, cei doi au fost amendaţi de autorităţile locale pentru nerespectarea normelor de carantină anti-COVID. „Nu doar că au necesitat asistenţă din partea serviciilor de urgenţe şi a Poliţiei pentru a fi salvaţi, dar au primit amândoi şi câte o amendă", a adăugat Fuller, transmite Digi24. O încălcare a protocolului anti-COVID aduce cu sine amenzi foarte aspre", a declarat Chris Minns, liderul opoziţiei din New South Wales, într-un mesaj pe Twitter. Potrivit DPA, cei doi nudişti au primit fiecare o amendă de 1.000 de dolari australieni (760 de dolari americani).
