Six inch Tall Alien believed to be 5 to 7 years old was found in the Atacama Desert in Chile a few years ago. This ET has been tested and the DNA proves this little being is not human or related to anything here on earth which makes it "Extraterrestrial"...

Well how most neowin members see it. If its something they never saw before. Its automatically fake lol

I would think something like this would hit more news outlets if it wasn't fake, don't you?

Youtube isn't exactly a scientific location to post findings for the world to see.

Wait, wait, wait ...so iPlay gaming console from Apple isn't real then:

...it's on YouTube so it HAS to be real :D

(nota bene, sarcasm :) )

DNA testing on an object not from earth? really? But DNA "evolved" here on earth to be the dominant genetic material as they say.

technically if such an event were to happen, I think they would not be DNA dependent, provided that that theory actually had any substance to it.

But DNA is pretty standard with carbon based life.

And to be frank I'd rather see this be shot down by someone who's background is in the sciences rather than some internet nerd who has watched one too many episodes of mythbusters.

Fixed that for you!

Any biological being that reproduces sexually, is going to have genetic makeup of some kind, weather it was here on Earth or elsewhere.

just because it's a gazillion to 1 that it happened here, doesn't mean it can't happen twice, on some other planet....

Any assertion you make is just that, an assertion, until you have evidence to back it up. I am not arrogant enough to think if there is life out there, given the diversity that millions of years of evolution has brought just on this planet (and that includes evolving the DNA system), that DNA would be the only solution to reproduction, be that sexual or of any kind.

True, but things in this universe are relatively standard. Whether on Earth or on an extrasolar planet, water is going to always be the same - 2 parts Hydrogen, 1 part Oxygen. Same with biological life, they'll always have some kind of genetic markup, something that makes it, "it".

Comments are almost certainly disabled thanks to the kids running around YouTube. You can have a video of a cute kitten, and you'll still have people fighting, cussing, harassing each other.

That comparison just doesn't make sense. Water is water is water. One molecule of water looks the same as another. The same cannot be said of life forms. What if a ecosystem exists that is based on silicon chemistry rather than carbon chemistry? If you can't comprehend the potential for the different forms of life then I can't really help that.

Life didn't evolve on this planet the way it has because this is the current phase of evolution to a potential supremely evolved life form. But it is because the current life forms fill their niche the best way. It also doesn't mean that DNA is the only way to encode the blueprint for a life form but it evolved because of the building blocks and the conditions on Earth at the time it formed and reproduced were favorable. DNA is not necessarily a fundamental requirement for life on other planets, it is here but it is a evolved solution to the problem of reproduction. I would like to see an statement by any reputable scientist that says that DNA is a prerequisite for life (by this I mean extraterrestrial). They would need a method of reproduction but I can't see it being based on ours unless the theory of polyspermia holds true but even then that would just increases the chances of finding DNA based life rather than making it a certainty.

    • Internet Download Manager (IDM) 6.43 Build 2 by Razvan Serea Internet Download Manager (IDM) is a tool to increase download speeds by up to 8 times due to its smart dynamic file segmentation technology. Unlike other download managers and accelerators, Internet Download Manager segments downloaded files dynamically during download process, and it reuses available connections without additional connect and login stages to achieve the best possible acceleration performance. Comprehensive error recovery and resume capability will restart broken or interrupted downloads due to lost connections, network problems, computer shutdowns, or unexpected power outages. All popular browsers are supported IDM integrates seamlessly into Google Chrome, FireFox, Microsoft Edge, Opera, Safari, Internet Explorer, Maxthon and all other popular browsers to automatically handle your downloads. You can also drag and drop files, or use Internet Download Manager from command line. The program supports proxy servers, ftp and http protocols, firewalls, redirects, cookies, authorization, MP3 audio and video content processing. IDM includes web site spider and grabber IDM downloads all required files that are specified with filters from web sites, for example all pictures from a web site, or subsets of web sites, or complete web sites for offline browsing. It's possible to schedule multiple grabber projects to run them once at a specified time, stop them at a specified time, or run periodically to synchronize changes. Easy downloading with one click When you click on a download link in a browser, IDM will take over the download and accelerate it. You don't need to do anything special, just browse the Internet as you usually do. IDM will catch your downloads and accelerate them. IDM supports HTTP, FTP, HTTPS and MMS protocols. Changes in Internet Download Manager 6.43 Build 2: Resolved the problem that caused a "403 Forbidden" error when downloading some files Fixed a problem causing IDM download panel not to appear on some websites Fixed a bug that caused a crash when converting some TS files to MP4 Download: Internet Download Manager 6.43 Build 2 | 11.9 MB (Shareware) Links: Internet Download Manager Website | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
    • It's in Experimental (26H2). Settings->Windows Update->Windows Insider Program. Then a) select Experimental, b) below that, select "Advanced Options" (where you will see the three options for "Experimental" builds -> select 26H2 (name change from 25H2 is rolling; so might be 25H2)
    • I am not a US citizen nor a Trump fan. Respect to both left and right. But I will, for the sake of fun, predict something for my own. There will come a day when the US and China will collide like titans ( over Taiwan or anything else ). Then, on that day, some people in this comment section will realize how good an idea it was to become independent in areas like that. ( Or atleast try )
    • Microsoft Edge gets tons of security features, including AI model that can see your screen by Usama Jawad Microsoft Edge may not be the most popular browser out there, but it does receive quite frequent updates that sometimes bring surprising new features and axe others that are not as popular. Now, Microsoft has detailed some of the new security enhancements that it has introduced in Edge for Business, typically used by commercial customers. Microsoft has emphasized that security features are baked into Edge for Business and offer native integration with security and governance tools like Defender and Purview. Browser sessions are governed by default on managed devices but can also be governed through dedicated work profiles on unmanaged devices. An important aspect in this area is controlling the use of shadow AI. We have talked about this before, but it essentially restricts employees from using unsanctioned AI apps through data loss prevention (DLP) policies, with Edge redirecting them to trusted AI services like Microsoft 365 Copilot. This feature, available as a pay-as-you-go (PAYG) license, ensures that confidential data never exits AI boundaries set by your organization in Purview. Additionally, Microsoft also has strong DLP policies for contractors. Contractors leveraging a Entra ID-joined work profile provisioned by their contracting company on a device managed by their actual employer can be restricted from downloading files locally. In such scenarios, the file is saved on the contracting firm's OneDrive rather than being downloaded locally. Another useful Edge security feature disallows copying and pasting from unmanaged locations and apps. Similarly, DLP policies can be configured at a granular level to restrict screenshots or downloading of files from certain locations. In the same vein, IT admins can block the installation of extensions, hosted apps, themes and scripts, and control if users can install extensions from external locations. They can also enable the installation of specific extensions and allow users to request access to certain extensions, so that they can be managed on a case-by-case basis. Finally, Edge for Business now has an on-device AI model that uses computer vision to see what's on your screen and block potentially malicious content immediately. This does not rely on site reputation, as it simply monitors what is being displayed on your screen, which means that it is effective against malicious content that takes over your screen and employs scareware tactics. Since this is an on-device AI model, it does use your system's resources, so it's enabled by default only on devices with at least 2GB of RAM and four CPU cores. You can find more details in the Microsoft Mechanics video here.
