“Even when his outlook was bleak and he had every right to accept help, he refused, rather than put a friend’s health at risk,” Cook continued. “He put his compassion for me above his own needs, and I will never forget it.”

A chain of single carbon atoms to graphene's two-dimensional layer of atoms, carbyne has some pretty amazing properties of its own. By one measure, it's the strongest material in the world (over graphene!), and a new study finds it has the strange ability to go from conductor to insulator with a small stretch.

9to5Mac has the “news,” but the Macalope must warn you: It might be too horrible to behold.

“KGI: 5.5-inch iPhone 6 likely to be delayed until after October, possibly until 2015”

NOOOOOOOOOOOO. But … but … the Macalope needs his iPhablet now! Because the screen’s bigger! Well, perhaps he’ll just switch to Android if Apple can’t bring rumored products to market when they’re rumored to be coming to market!

And then he’ll wade into the ocean and never return. That sounds about right.

So, delayed according to who?
