Nobody is talking. | Image: Metrograph Pictures Researchers at the University of Missouri-Kansas City and the University of Arizona say that between 2005 and 2019, the number of words we speak out loud to another human being fell by nearly 28 percent . And that has likely only gotten worse following the pandemic. The researchers actually counted the number of words we were speaking on average (16,632 in 2005). They looked at data from 22 studies in which over 2,000 people recorded audio of their daily lives. Over time, as ordering through apps became the norm, texting increased, and our lives became increasingly online, they found that number had dropped dramatically. By 2019, we were onl … Read the full story at The Verge.

Claim of nefarious plot draws attention of lawmakers and president – but are disappearances and deaths really linked? Are the disappearances or deaths of at least 11 US scientists, each allegedly connected in some way to space, defense and nuclear research, really linked in a nefarious plot: one that involves the Chinese or other state enemies, or possibly links back to UFOs? A conspiracy theory positing exactly that has roared through sections of the US population in recent weeks, spreading rapidly from the internet into rightwing media and hence into the mainstream press and prompting an inquiry from Congress and questions from Donald Trump .

Welcome to The Brink . I’m Reshmi Basu , a reporter in New York, where I’ve been looking at why the number of out-of-court restructuring deals could be picking up again. We also have news on Spirit Airlines, Ingenico and Medallia. Follow this link to subscribe . Send us feedback and tips at debtnews@bloomberg.net . Are LMEs Back? Economists have long described the US economy as K-shaped — the rich get richer and the poor get poorer. The same dynamic is now playing out among companies: stronger firms continue to grow and access capital, while the weaker ones fall further behind under the weight of debt and soft demand. At the bottom end, companies are bracing for a wall of debt coming due in 2028. Should stubbornly high interest rates persist, making their lenders whole will come at a steep price. That’s why many of them are turning to so-called liability management exercises to deal with their burdens. A growing number of companies are trying to negotiate out-of-court deals that reshuffle repayment priorities, extend due dates and coax lenders to provide a fresh injection of cash. That allows their private equity owners to preserve money and keep their options open. “There is a bit of a K-shaped market for companies facing 2028/2029 maturities,” said Damian Schaible , co-head of restructuring at Davis Polk & Wardwell . “Companies facing near-term maturities seem to be divided into easy refinancing stories and tougher ones.” There were almost 50 LMEs globally in 2024 before dropping to fewer than 35 last year, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. But these transactions are picking up again as lenders exploit loose credit documents and assert themselves. While only seven LMEs were completed in the first quarter, nine more could commence soon, the data shows. Medical Solutions , a highly leveraged healthcare staffing firm owned by Centerbridge and Caisse de Depot et Placement du Quebec , is seeking broader lender support for a deal to invest new money, according to...

The Icemag 3’s kickstand allows you to prop up your phone as it recharges. | Image: Cameron Faulkner / The Verge I’ve been testing compact, magnetic Qi2 power banks that can snap onto your phone for an upcoming buying guide. They make recharging much easier than bringing along a huge battery that weighs down your bag. One of my favorites so far is the Sharge Icemag 3 , a 10,000mAh model that can wirelessly output 25W to iPhone 16-series phones and newer models. It also offers a built-in kickstand and a 35W USB-C cable that doubles as a lanyard, plus a USB-C port for passthrough charging. For a limited time, Amazon Prime subscribers can get it in either white or black for $69.90 ($10 off), and Sharge will include a basic 60W USB-C cable for free when you add both items to your cart. Alternatively, you can get the Icemag 3 for $2 less (sans the free cable) through Sharge’s own storefront. Using code ICE15 will knock it down to $67.92. Sharge Icemag 3 Power Bank Where to Buy: $79.9 $69.9 at Amazon (black, with Prime) $79.9 $69.9 at Amazon (white, with Prime) $79.9 $67.92 at Sharge (with code ICE15) I’ll save my detailed charging speed test results for a later date, but I’m impressed so far with the Icemag 3. While it’s thicker than some other Qi2 power banks, the build quality is stellar, and it’s speedy when it comes to both wired and wireless charging. I also adore its see-through window, which showcases an LED-packed fan that keeps the battery cool while it recharges my gear. Plus, a free USB-C cable is a nice little gift.
