arstechnica.com Unknown 2025-10-14 09:45:02

President Donald Trump signed an executive order Friday authorizing the Department of Defense to refer to itself as the Department of War, reverting to a more bellicose title used until a 1940s-era military shakeup in the aftermath of World War II. The order approves the Pentagon's use of the Department of War name as an "additional secondary title" for the Department of Defense while the Trump administration seeks congressional approval to officially change the name.

Amazon Music launches AI-powered weekly playlists based on 'preferences and mood'

engadget.com Unknown 2025-10-14 13:42:39

Amazon Music has just launched new AI-powered weekly playlists based on the "preferences and mood" of listeners. This just means it scrapes what you've already been listening to and extrapolates further. It doesn't apply modern technology to gauge the actual mood of users. The company says the playlists include "a curated mix of familiar favorites from their most listened-to artists and latest favorites to new discoveries." I'm not exactly sure how this is different from what music streaming pl

OpenWrt: A Linux OS targeting embedded devices

This frees you from the application selection and configuration provided by the vendor and allows you to customize the device through the use of packages to suit any application.

F1 in Italy: Look what happens when the downforce comes off

Formula 1 held its Italian Grand Prix at Monza this past weekend. It's the third-oldest purpose-built racetrack on the planet, and even includes an old and rather dangerous-looking oval that, while no longer in use, is accessible on foot if you feel like exploring. It's a deceptively simple-looking track where it's all about top speed, and nailing your braking into the four heavy deceleration zones. Downforce is actually an impediment here, and that means the pecking order that we have become fa
