Amazon Prime Video has added Roku's $3-per-month Howdy streaming service as a new add-on subscription available in the US. The commercial-free service, first launched on Roku devices in August 2025, now expands to the Prime Video app for the first time outside its original platform. Prime members can access it alongside other add-ons like Apple TV and ad-free Peacock.

Scientists have identified a method to create multiple copies of quantum information by encrypting them with a one-time decryption key, sidestepping the no-cloning theorem. This approach, developed by Achim Kempf and colleagues at the University of Waterloo, was tested on an IBM quantum processor. The technique could enhance redundancy in quantum computing and storage systems.
Researchers have developed a new chip with 41 vertical layers of semiconductors, bypassing the miniaturization limits that have stalled Moore's law. This design could enable more sustainable electronics by stacking transistors upward rather than shrinking them. The innovation promises reduced manufacturing energy use and potential applications in everyday devices.
