Sit down, it’s time to don the tin foil hats. While I love reading about a good conspiracy theory here and there, I wouldn’t call myself a part of the tin foil hat army. Did I wrap my old LG phone in foil back in 2011 because I thought it would trap and block the ‘dangerous’ RF signals it was emitting? Sure, but that was also around the time I was making duct tape wallets at my local library. Back in the day, I never imagined I’d be surrounded by this much tech. Today, I have a multi- monitor setup,…
Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) has released patches for 34 CVEs in the Aruba Networking ArubaOS-CX (AOS-CX) platform, including critical-severity remote code execution (RCE) flaws. Per HPT’s advisory, more than 150 flaws were resolved in AOS-CX versions 10.18.1002, 10.17.1030, 10.16.1060, 10.13.1190, and 10.10.1181. Many of these bugs are tracked together under single CVEs. Nearly two dozen issues, tracked collectively as CVE-2026-73749 (CVSS score of 9.8), were addressed with the updates. The critical security defects are rooted in the improper processing of malformed input sent to an unnamed service within HPE’s database-centric operating system for enterprise switches. According to the company, an…
Scientific research often depends on complex laboratory equipment that only specialists know how to use. But Anthropic is now rolling out a system that allows AI agents to control lab devices and autonomously carry out experiments.Laboratory automation technology has been around for decades but getting different bits of equipment to talk to each other has traditionally been a major headache. Most instruments use their own proprietary interfaces, so connecting a microscope to a robotic arm or a liquid handler typically requires bespoke software that takes specialists weeks or even months to build.Anthropic says its new Model Hardware Standard can reduce…

I almost passed on Mr Inbetween because the runtime looked like a red flag. Every prestige crime drama I actually finish runs 50 minutes or more, like the still-making-news Breaking Bad and The Sopranos — shows that need the extra time to let a scene sit before it turns violent. Twenty-five minutes felt like a show that hadn’t put in the hours yet. It was a Sunday afternoon, I was bored, and I was scrolling Hulu for something I could bail on after 10 minutes if it didn’t hold up. The title card came up, and I checked Rotten Tomatoes…
We’ve tested plenty in the Anker Solix line of portable power stations, and they’ve continually impressed us. And as part of the Labor Day sales, the Anker Solix S2000 has dropped to $650 (was $1199) at Amazon.The 2,010Wh power station is smaller and lighter than other units in its capacity class, aimed squarely at everyday home backup. It’s capable of keeping a fridge, router, or medical device like a CPAP machine running through an outage rather than powering a whole house.Why we recommend itMost 2kWh power stations in this category are large enough that finding a permanent spot for one…

Sign up to see the future, today Can’t-miss innovations from the bleeding edge of science and tech OpenAI’s bots have allegedly been behaving badly again: a swarm of rogue agents created by the company reportedly took over an obscure German website and turned it into a messaging forum to communicate. The incident, which was discovered by a team of AI researchers and first reported by Reuters, is the second known OpenAI breach of its kind — and like the other rogue swarm of AI agents to be discovered this summer, it has experts deeply alarmed about the emerging powers of the…

A federal court in Delaware has ruled on a trademark fight between Elon Musk’s X and a startup trying to launch a rival social network. The startup, Operation Bluebird, originally launched under the name Twitter.now, but the court barred it from using that name, siding with X on the core “Twitter” trademark. However, the court also found that X had likely abandoned two other, related trademarks: the word “tweet” and the Twitter bird logo, making them available to use. Operation Bluebird has since rebranded its website as Tweet.app, using the freed-up “tweet” name, and launched to the public. The story…
