In experiments, the LTST method extended the milk's shelf life (typically 8 to 14 days) to up to 63 days. Millisecond Technologies (MST) developed the process, which uses a heated, pressurized chamber to quickly raise and lower the temperature of the liquid. The method was first used on juice, but the company later switched its focus to milk. It's in the process of rolling out the technology on a commercial scale.

Verizon Wireless customers who have held on to unlimited data plans and use significantly more than 100GB a month will be disconnected from the network on August 31 unless they agree to move to limited data packages that require payment of overage fees.

"Because our network is a shared resource and we need to ensure all customers have a great mobile experience with Verizon, we are notifying a very small group of customers on unlimited plans who use an extraordinary amount of data that they must move to one of the new Verizon Plans by August 31, 2016," a Verizon spokesperson told Ars.

Projects include a tie-up with London Moorfields eye hospital, which will see it using one million eye scans to train its artificial intelligence system to diagnose potential sight issues, and development of an app to help doctors spot kidney disease.

In May it was revealed that Google's DeepMind, had been given access to the healthcare data of up to 1.6 million patients from three hospitals run by London's Royal Free Trust in order to develop an app, called Streams, that would notify doctors should someone be at risk of developing acute kidney injury (AKI).

In a 2015 letter to the United States Copyright Office, John Deere, the world’s largest tractor maker, said that the folks who buy tractors don’t own them, not in the way the general public believes “ownership” works. Instead, John Deere said that those who buy tractors are actually purchasing an “implied license for the life of the vehicle to operate the vehicle.”

Not everyone is on the farmers’ side here; some, according to the Associated Press, are concerned that the move would reduce revenue to tractor manufacturers, potentially landing them in trouble.

A team of researchers led by Delft University of Technology (TU Delft) have managed to devise a new method in atomic memory which could potentially outperform state-of-the-art hard disk drives by “three orders of magnitude”.

The imperfections are vital for the hard disk, as a scanning tunnelling microscope (STM) interprets a vacancy to the left and right of a chlorine atom as a 0 and 1 respectively.

At although the atomic hard disk has a storage density 500 times greater than the best commercial hard disks used today, there is a high price to pay for its stability. The hard disk has to be stored at -196˚C to control the vacancy positions in the lattice.

In its latest Patch Tuesday security update, Microsoft closed a backdoor left open in Windows RT–Windows 8.x ported to devices with 32-bit ARMv7 processors–computers that allowed developers and hackers to boot non-Microsoft approved operating systems.

A way to bypass Microsoft’s boot mechanism is highly sought because Microsoft is killing the support for Surface RT tablets in 2017 and Windows RT 8.1 in 2018.

Some 2,839 soldiers, including high-ranking officers, have been arrested after an attempted coup that is now over, says Turkey's PM Binali Yildirim.

Some 2,745 Turkish judges have also been dismissed in the wake of the coup, state media say.

The report gives a broad overview of the business models that are used to illegally exploit intellectual property. This includes websites dedicated to counterfeit goods, but also online piracy hubs such as torrent sites and file-hosting platforms.

According to the research, several infringing business models rely on encryption-based technologies. The Tor network and Bitcoin, for example, are repeatedly mentioned as part of this “shadow landscape”.

On Wednesday, two men fell off a cliff near the ocean in Encinitas, California, while playing Pokemon Go.

According to a release from the City of Encinitas, "both patients were transported to Scripps La Jolla Trauma Center with moderate injuries."

Google says it has created more than $2bn (£1.5bn) for content owners via YouTube's piracy-tackling Content ID tool.

But the BPI, which represents the UK's recorded music industry, dismissed the document as "greenwash".

The International Federation of the Phonographic Industry (IFPI) described Content ID as being "ineffective".
