The Novelty of the Arpanet

If you run an image search for the word “ARPANET,” you will find lots of maps showing how the government research network expanded steadily across the country throughout the late ’60s and early ’70s. I’m guessing that most people reading or hearing about the ARPANET for the first time encounter one of these maps. Obviously, the maps are interesting—it’s hard to believe that there were once so few networked computers that their locations could all be conveyed with what is really pretty lo-fi car

Everybody Needs to Calm Down About the Switch 2 Screen and ‘Ghosting’

My aging, stick drift-wracked original Switch was stacked with a library of games I honestly forgot I owned. The Switch 2, with its bigger, brighter display, has breathed new life into this backlog, and it has become my new excuse to revisit Hades and Kentucky Route Zero. A new batch of naysayers claim the screen isn’t worth playing your older 2D titles on due to reported ghosting issues, but the specs are much more complicated than any not-a-tweet post on X may imply. The Switch 2’s 7.9-inch d

Patreon, a creator monetization platform that offers membership programs and digital goods, announced on Monday that it is changing its pricing structure.

Opposition to license revocations came from conservatives, telecom consumer advocates, and some industry groups. The Free State Foundation, a free-market group that has generally supported Republican priorities at the FCC, filed comments saying that "arbitrary" decisions would create instability in the market

US government’s vaccine website defaced with AI-generated content

In Brief A U.S. government website designed to inform the public about vaccines has been defaced and now hosts apparently AI-generated spam. The domain, which belongs to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), appears to have been hosting the same kind of content — mostly gay-themed and LGBTQ+ posts — since at least May 12, according to an archived version of the site. It’s unclear who is responsible for it, or what is the purpose of this defacement other than pushing AI-gener
