No honest person can resist the attraction of Pokemon Gold. That's why Pokemon TCG Pocket's Wisdom of Sea and Sky expansion set is going all in on generation two when it arrives on July 29. This set will be one of the game's larger offerings, featuring more than 200 cards. I'm sure that has the most ravenous collectors breathing a sigh of relief, since the past two expansions -- Eevee Grove and Extradimensional Crisis -- have both had smaller complimentary card lists to build on Celestial Guard

Apple's iOS 18.6 will likely be released soon, ahead of its iOS 26 this fall, but the company's July 21 iOS 18.6 release candidate didn't change much on the iPhones of developers and beta testers. While iOS 26 will bring a major redesign to iPhones, the latest iOS 18.6 beta is filled with bug and security fixes, so developers and beta testers shouldn't expect new features.

Trump’s order to make chatbots anti-woke is unconstitutional, senator says

arstechnica.com Unknown 2025-07-29 23:21:52

The CEOs of every major artificial intelligence company received letters Wednesday urging them to fight Donald Trump's anti-woke AI order. Trump's executive order requires any AI company hoping to contract with the federal government to jump through two hoops to win funding. First, they must prove their AI systems are "truth-seeking"—with outputs based on "historical accuracy, scientific inquiry, and objectivity" or else acknowledge when facts are uncertain. Second, they must train AI models to

Hackers—hope to defect to Russia? Don’t Google “defecting to Russia.”

To the casual observer, cybercriminals can look like swashbuckling geniuses. They possess technical skills formidable enough to penetrate the networks of the biggest companies on the planet. They cover their tracks using technology that is arcane to most people—VPNs, encrypted chat apps, onion routing, aliases in dark web forums. They talk trash, extorting corporate ransoms in cryptocurrency, and they aim high, not flinching even at the prospect of stealing data on US presidential candidates.
