With Lumo, Proton thinks it can carve a place at the AI table

engadget.com Unknown 2025-09-24 00:00:00

Proton released Lumo — its privacy-focused chatbot built on open-source models — in mid-July, and, following an update in August that addressed some early issues, I find myself using it more often than ChatGPT or Claude. In a world where internet companies have done so much damage to our society, I'm trying to find more ethical tools. But when the competition offers flashier features in exchange for the low price of user data, does Proton seriously think it can compete? If Eamonn Maguire, Proto

Canon Promo Codes: 10% Off | September 2025

wired.com Scott Gilbertson 2025-09-23 16:10:00

We love Canon’s lineup of mirrorless cameras, which deliver the same great image quality without the bulk. The R5 is a powerhouse of a camera, offering a 45 Megapixel full-frame sensor and can shoot 8K RAW Video. If you don’t need the huge 45 MP sensor of the R5, the smaller, cheaper R6 Mark II Body is a solid choice. Plus, Canon has an online deals hub with rotating offers so you can get the gear you need for all your projects for way less. There are plenty of other Canon discounts and offers

Ozempic May Be Less Effective for Emotional Eaters, Study Suggests

gizmodo.com Margherita Bassi 2025-09-24 11:00:33

GLP-1 agonists—so-called “wonder drugs” like Ozempic or Wegovy that help individuals lower blood sugar levels and lose weight, among other things—yield significant results for some patients, but not all. People’s motivations to overeat may play a role in this, according to a new study. To investigate why some people don’t benefit from GLP-1 agonists as much as others, researchers observed 92 participants with type 2 diabetes in Japan during their first year of taking GLP-1 drugs.
