gizmodo.com Riley Gutiérrez Mcdermid 2025-12-03 12:41:14

Controversial lightning rod Elon Musk is making major moves in the United Kingdom, as his electric car company Tesla looks to find new ways to diversify its income streams. According to OFGEM, the U.K. energy regulator, Tesla has formally applied for a license to sell electricity to households and businesses across Britain. Approval of that application could be a major boost for both Musk and Tesla, which has seen sales skid as Musk has become an increasingly polarizing figure in American poli

iOS 26 is giving us a glass-like UI, but Apple’s long-term vision for the iPhone hardware is what former design chief Jony Ive referred to as a “single slab of glass.” A new Apple patent application appears to refer to work on this, describing a “six-sided glass enclosure” … An all-glass iPhone Ive may be long gone from his role at Apple, but the company is believed to be still working toward his vision of a device which would look like a single slab of glass.

OpenSSH Post-Quantum Cryptography OpenSSH supports a number of cryptographic key agreement algorithms considered to be safe against attacks from quantum computers. We recommend that all SSH connections use these algorithms. OpenSSH has offered post-quantum key agreement (KexAlgorithms) by default since release 9.0 (2022), initially via the sntrup761x25519-sha512 algorithm.

What Does Palantir Actually Do?

wired.com Caroline Haskins 2025-12-04 04:00:00

Palantir is arguably one of the most notorious corporations in contemporary America. Cofounded by libertarian tech billionaire Peter Thiel, the software firm's work with Immigration and Customs Enforcement, the US Department of Defense, and the Israeli military has sparked numerous protests in multiple countries. Palantir has been so infamous for so long that, for some people, its name has become a cultural shorthand for dystopian surveillance. But a number of former Palantir employees tell WIR

Apple’s new Siri may allow users to operate apps just using voice

In Brief Apple in 2024 showed a swanky demo of what it said would be a new, intelligent Siri that would connect with different apps to fetch all kinds of information. But this new Siri has yet to see the light of day, as the company seemingly hasn’t been able to get it ready. However, Bloomberg now reports that Apple is testing a version of Siri that will be able to take actions on your behalf across various apps by following voice commands.

SoftBank founder Son makes his biggest bet by staking the Japanese giant's future on AI

cnbc.com Arjun Kharpal 2025-12-03 22:29:35

Masayoshi Son is making his biggest bet yet: that his brainchild SoftBank will be the center of a revolution driven by artificial intelligence. Son says artificial superintelligence (ASI) — AI that is 10,000 times smarter than humans — will be here in 10 years. It's a bold call — but perhaps not surprising. He's made a career out of big plays; notably, one was a $20 million investment into Chinese e-commerce company Alibaba in 2000 that has made billions for SoftBank. Now, the billionaire is hop

AOL is finally shutting down dial-up

theverge.com Thomas Ricker 2025-12-04 05:32:48

As a septuagenarian, my father’s story was typical of long-time AOL dial-up subscribers. His subscription was a security blanket. He was sure he didn’t need the dial-up component, but he didn’t want to risk losing access to his stock portfolio, investor forums, and email. His setup worked, and he could afford to keep paying the subscription he had dutifully paid for over a decade. With my help, we were able to migrate everything he used on AOL to the ad-supported and open internet that was alre

New adhesive surface modeled on a remora works underwater

Most adhesives can’t stick to wet surfaces because water and other fluids disrupt the adhesive’s bonding mechanisms. This problem, though, has been beautifully solved by evolution in remora suckerfish, which use an adhesive disk on top of their heads to attach to animals like dolphins, sharks, and even manta rays. A team of MIT scientists has now taken a close look at these remora disks and reverse-engineered them. “Basically, we looked at nature for inspiration,” says Giovanni Traverso, a prof
