‘Major Anomaly’ Behind Latest SpaceX Starship Explosion

wired.com Stephen Clark 2025-09-14 02:38:37

Musk wrote that the nitrogen COPV appears to have failed below its proof pressure, within conditions that should not have damaged the tank. "If further investigation confirms that this is what happened, it is the first time ever for this design," Musk added. Picking Up the Pieces Earlier Wednesday, just hours before the late-night explosion at Starbase, an advisory released by the Federal Aviation Administration showed SpaceX had set June 29 as a tentative launch date for the next Starship tes

Iran’s government says it shut down internet to protect against cyberattacks

techcrunch.com Lorenzo Franceschi-Bicchierai 2025-09-14 02:44:19

Earlier this week, virtually everyone in Iran lost access to the internet in what was called a “near-total national internet blackout.” At the time, it was unclear what happened or who was responsible for the shutdown, which has severely limited Iranians’ means to get information about the ongoing war with Israel, as well as their ability to communicate with loved ones inside and outside of the country. Now, Iran’s government has confirmed that it ordered the shutdown to protect against Israel

This overlooked phone accessory gave me a greater sense of security - and it's not a case

zdnet.com Adrian Kingsley-Hughes 2025-09-14 06:36:00

My tether tag set up on my iPhone. Adrian Kingsley-Hughes/ZDNET You might have heard of tether tags. These little tags offer a way to prevent phone snatching theft, a crime that's on the increase. The idea is you fit the little T-shaped plastic or fabric tag between the smartphone and the case it's in, clip a wrist lanyard to it, and bingo, no more theft. I first saw these on social media -- I remember there being quite a bit of hype about them -- and then I later bought one from a UK company

Yep, GoPro Should Be Really Worried About Meta’s New ‘Performance’ Smart Glasses

gizmodo.com James Pero 2025-09-14 06:15:34

Meta’s next generation of smart glasses is here, but it’s not Ray-Ban doing the heavy lifting on design. This go-around, it’s Oakley at the center, which may seem like a strange choice at first but makes more sense once you unpack how Meta is positioning its first new pair of smart glasses since its original Ray-Ban collab. In Meta’s words, these things are all about “performance.” What does that mean, exactly? Sports, mostly. This pair focuses primarily on athletes who want to capture footage

Like it or not, passwords aren’t going away anytime soon. While many organizations are exploring passwordless authentication, passwords still serve as the main line of defense for most public-facing online services. That said, they come with a heavy management burden. Gartner estimates that 40% of all service desk calls are tied to password issues like expirations, changes, and resets.
