Someone Is Calling Trump Officials Using an AI Clone of Marco Rubio’s Voice

gizmodo.com Aj Dellinger 2026-02-12 10:35:25

Government employees keep getting calls from Secretary of State Marco Rubio—which would be bad enough, frankly, having to talk to that guy. But making matters worse, it seems that it’s not actually Marco Rubio but instead, an unidentified caller who is mimicking his voice with artificial intelligence software, according to a report from the Washington Post. The technologically advanced crank caller has reportedly contacted at least three foreign ministers, a governor, and a member of Congress,

New Research Bolsters Freaky Theory That Earth Sits in a Giant Cosmic Void

gizmodo.com Ellyn Lapointe 2026-02-12 10:45:55

Images of the cosmos, such as the James Webb Space Telescope’s deep space snapshot, make space look chock-full of stuff. In the grand scheme of things, it is, but all those stars, galaxies, planets, and other celestial objects may not be as uniformly distributed as photos make them look. The fact is, space is likely peppered with bubbles of relative emptiness, and some astronomers believe we’re sitting inside of one. A growing body of evidence suggests that our entire Milky Way galaxy is locate

I’ve tested every cheap Samsung phone: Here are the ones you should buy in 2025

androidauthority.com Unknown 2026-02-12 15:32:31

The secret to Samsung’s ultra-cheap success is its commitment to software updates. Like the rest of the Galaxy A series, the Galaxy A16 is set up for a full six years of support, carrying it right into the start of the 2030s. That works out to a per-update cost of around $30, better than the Galaxy A26’s per-update cost of $50 or the Galaxy S24 FE’s price of around $90 for each major patch. Granted, you’re paying for much more than just software support, but it’s a good place to start if you wan

The Book of Rites, also known as the Classic of Ritual. The Way of the former kings consists in exalting ren. One must cleave to what is central in carrying it out. What do I mean by "what is central"? I say: it is ritual and yi (8.99). The Confucian moral order is grounded in ren (仁), yi (義), and ritual (禮, li). Ren is humaneness, empathy, and magnanimous compassion. Yi is righteousness, firmness of will, and principles-based justice. Ren is the duty to care and provide for those in your ch
