Tesla Model S is now the best-selling luxury car – with an asterisk
Tesla tops Mercedes, Lexus, BWW and Audi. That’s if you compare the Model S to the competitors’ costlier sedans. Still, Tesla outsells the best-selling combustion engine luxury car by 50%.

Chinese physicists create first single-photon quantum memory, leading to quantum internet
A lab in China is reporting that it has constructed the first memory device that uses single photons to store quantum data. This is a significant breakthrough that takes us further down the path towards a quantum internet, and potentially quantum computing as well.

Lumia 925 hands-on (with video): The thin & light Lumia 920 that Nokia should’ve released last year
At an event in London, Nokia has announced the Lumia 925, the metal-bodied, professional-looking spiritual successor to the primary colored, plastic Lumia 920. The Lumia 925 will be exclusive to T-Mobile in the US, and will launch on Vodafone in Europe. The phone will cost 469 euros, which will probably equate to around $ 599, before subsidies/taxes.

Xbox 720 to be announced next week, but we probably won’t find out how much it costs or what it looks like
Next week, Microsoft will be unveiling its next generation gaming console in Redmond, Washington. All eyes are on the so-called Xbox 720 to see if it can live up to the high standard Sony set with its announcement of the PS4 earlier this year. With this event happening so close to the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3), many of us are curious about what will be shown on the 21st, and what will be saved for gaming’s biggest trade show.

Windows 8.1 will be a free upgrade, will begin public beta testing on June 26
Microsoft has announced that Windows 8.1, aka Blue, will be a free upgrade for all Windows 8 users. Microsoft has also confirmed that it intends to release a public preview of Windows 8.1 on June 26, the first day of the Build developer conference — and if everything goes to plan, you should be able to get your hands on Windows 8.1 sometime in the fall (it should release to manufacturing in August). As expected, there’s also a Windows 8.1 update for Windows RT.

Magnetically steerable, injectable microrobots could help treat blindness
Researchers from the Institute of Robotics in Zurich, have recently developed an electromagnetically-controlled robot that can be positioned in the eye to deliver drugs. By coating their microbot with dye-containing nanospheres, the researchers have now re-purposed the device to also provide critical measurements of oxygen concentration in the eye to make quick diagnoses.

How the 2013 World Press Photo of the Year was faked with Photoshop
It turns out that the 2013 World Press Photo of the Year — the largest and most prestigious press photography award — was, in actual fact, a fake. The World Press Photo association hasn’t yet stripped the photographer, Paul Hansen, of the title, but presumably it’s just a matter of time. Rather than discussing the politics of photo manipulation, though — is it faked, or is it merely enhanced? — we’re going to look at how Hansen managed to trick a panel of experienced judges with his shooping skillz, and how a seasoned computer scientist spotted the fraudulent forgery from a mile off.

Scent messaging: Gadget brings smell-o-vision to smartphones
Smell-o-vision always seems to be the oldest idea that modern technology hasn’t been able to perfect, much less implement. However, in something of an incredible twist, smartphones may get the widespread technology before, for example, cooking shows.

The Bitcoin network outperforms the top 500 supercomputers combined
For some, Bitcoin conjures ideas of a utopian decentralized currency, but many others these days think of it as a quick way to make a buck. Countless hordes of Bitcoin prospectors are now using their computers to “mine” for Bitcoins by solving for specific hashed values. Now, the processing power of these miners is estimated to be six to eight times greater than the top 500 supercomputers combined.
