Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg’s promised cage fight could take place in Rome’s Colosseum. Mr Musk suggested that the mixed martial arts bout could happen in the historic arena, which long ago served as the home of gladiatorial contests. Now it could see the two billionaires face off in a battle that could see the two revive some of that history, according to Mr Musk. He tweeted that there was “some chance” that the fight happened in the Colosseum, joking that he would need to work on his endurance as he shared a clip from The Life of Brian. The minister of culture has reached out to Mr Zuckerberg to propose the location, TMZ reported. Both the billionaires are said to be intrigued by the idea, the site said. That request was passed on to Dana White, the head of the UFC who has expressed an interest in co-ordinating the fight. The three have been negotiating about the details of the fight daily, TMZ reported. It is not clear where in the Colosseum the fight could actually take place. While it could once hold tens of thousands of people, it can no longer host more than a few hundred people inside special temporary seating, and it has hosted few large events in recent times. The fight between the two billionaires originally appeared to begin as something of a joke, after rumours that Mr Zuckerberg was looking for a competitor and Mr Musk tweeted that he was “up for a cage match”. Mr Zuckerberg replied to that tweet in a post with the caption “send me location”, and the fight appears to now be moving forward. That has led to much speculation over how the two men would fight, and suggestions that it would be the biggest face-off in history. The details of any such event are far from agreed – but that has not stopped speculation about who would actually win such a battle.

Christophe Galtier has been sacked by Paris St Germain despite leading them to a record 11th Ligue 1 title in his first season in charge. PSG confirmed on Wednesday that they had parted company with their 56-year-old coach just weeks after Lionel Messi’s goal secured a 1-1 draw at Strasbourg and an unassailable lead at the top of the table. A statement on the club’s official website said: “At the end of the 2022-2023 season, Paris Saint-Germain informed Christophe Galtier of its decision to terminate his contract as first-team coach. “The club would like to pay tribute to his professionalism and commitment, which helped the Rouge et Bleu win a historic eleventh French Championship title and a Trophee des Champions. “The entire Paris Saint-Germain team would like to thank Christophe Galtier, as well as his assistants Thierry Oleksiak and Joao Sacramento, for their professionalism and commitment throughout the season, and wish them all the best for the rest of their careers.” Galtier’s departure comes after 36-year-old Messi’s exit for MLS side Inter Miami, with PSG still the dominant force in France but having once again failed in their mission to win the Champions League. The 2020 runners-up went out in the last 16 last season after a 3-0 aggregate defeat by Bayern Munich to prolong owner Qatar Sports Investments’ wait for European success. Former Spain boss Luis Enrique and ex-Bayern manager Julian Nagelsmann have been linked with the impending vacancy in recent weeks, although reports have suggested talks with the German broke down last month.

Apple is rumoured to be working on a brand new type of battery for its next iPhone, potentially signalling an era-defining transition for the smartphone industry. The stacked battery design will feature on the entire lineup of iPhone 15 devices, according to anonymous leaker @RGcloudS, setting the standard for smartphone manufacturers and transforming the way people use their phones. The next-generation battery technology could result in faster charging, greater capacity and an iPhone that can run for several hours longer between charges. So how does it work and why is it so important? What is stacking technology? The word ‘stack’ refers to the configuration of the elements within a battery cell. The positive and negative electrodes within a typical battery cell are rolled up in a process known as winding, whereas stacked battery cells folds the electrodes up into layers. This makes the most of the space available within a battery cell, while also reducing resistance to lower the amount of heat generated when charging or using the battery. The design allows for a significantly higher charge capacity without changing the form of the battery, meaning no other existing components need to be altered to fit it. Why would Apple change its battery design? Lithium-ion batteries have been the standard power units in smartphones since the first iPhone was unveiled by Apple in 2007. There have been iterative upgrades to improve performance and make them more durable, though the underlying design has largely remained the same. With Apple now working on brand new devices, such as its Vision Pro headset, it makes sense for the world’s richest company to explore new battery innovations. One of the biggest criticisms of its mixed reality device was the external battery pack, so improving capacity could overcome this deficiency. Who else is working on stacked battery technology? Larger lithium-ion batteries used in electric vehicles already use stacking technology, though condensing them into a size that fits in a phone has proved tricky. Reports emerged earlier this year that Samsung, Apple’s chief smartphone rival, was working on adapting the technology to fit in its flagship Galaxy S24 Ultra phone. The inclusion of a stacked battery could allow the South Korean electronics giant to maintain the battery capacity and performance of its current S23 range, while squeezing it into a smaller form factor. This could allow for new hardware to be added, from a new camera lens, to a major upgrade to the device’s GPU.
