Apple began selling iPad repair parts to the public in late May following new right-to-repair legislation, but independent repair professionals say the pricing makes most repairs economically unviable. A charge port for an iPad Pro 11 costs $250 from Apple compared to less than $20 for aftermarket parts, Brian Clark of iGuys Tech Shop told 404 Media. An iPad A16 digitizer costs $200 from Apple versus $50 from third-party suppliers, while the entire iPad A16 retails for $349. The iPad Pro 13 screen assembly costs $749.

The Guardian: Thaddeus Daniel Pierce was born on 26 July in Ohio to Lindsey and Tim Pierce, using an "adopted" embryo from Linda Archerd, 62, from more than 30 years ago. In the early 1990s, Archerd and her then husband decided to try in vitro fertilisation (IVF) after struggling to become pregnant. In 1994 four embryos resulted: one was transferred to Archerd and resulted in the birth of a daughter, who is now 30 and mother to a 10-year-old. The other embryos were cryopreserved and stored. "We didn't go into it thinking we would break any records," Lindsey told the MIT Technology Review, which first reported the story. "We just wanted to have a baby."
