And then there are penguins, which plunge a quarter-mile deep into icy waters in search of food. It now seems that modern birds are not the only dinosaur group to embrace the plunge-and-prey lifestyle. A team of researchers say they have found the earliest example of an extinct dinosaur with a body that was streamlined for diving. They described the dinosaur discovery in the journal Communications Biology on Thursday. The new duck-size dinosaur was at first overlooked.

Liz Chung, a director at Netflix's South Korean unit, said her company was looking for ways to handle surging traffic. YouTube has 41.8 million active South Korean users, out of a population of 51.6 million. South Korean network provider SK Broadband has gone to court in the hope of making Big Tech pay fees.
