On Oct. 3, former Colorado county clerk Tina Peters was sentenced to nine years in prison for tampering with voting technology used in the 2020 election. She wasn't trying to finesse the count, though, she was trying to prove someone else had. Spoiler: They hadn't.
Peters' actions turned her into the celebrity face of a movement, one casting doubt on the deeply complex mechanics of how one's vote
New releases in fiction, nonfiction and comics that caught our attention.
The legal battle between Apple and medical technology company Masimo rages on, with the bigger company — sorta, kinda — winning their latest face off. A federal jury has agreed with Apple that previous versions of Masimo's W1 and Freedom (pictured above) watches infringed on its design patents, according to Reuters.

Chaos once reigned on Earth.
Huge asteroids or chunks of ancient objects once pummeled planets in the unsettled solar system, and scientists previously found evidence that a particularly monstrous object struck our planet some 3.26 billion years ago.
