Meta has published an architectural overview of Delta, an internal object storage service designed to hold build and distribution artifacts and support disaster recovery bootstrap operations. Delta exposes just four operations—put, get, delete, and list—and prioritizes reliability and horizontal scalability over latency or storage efficiency.
A new tool called Delta has entered public beta, offering a multiplayer workspace where teams write code alongside AI agents and review the results without relying on traditional pull requests. The company behind it says it has already disabled pull requests on its own repository, running all internal collaboration through Delta instead. The tool is available on macOS, Linux, Windows, and via browser, including mobile access to ongoing conversation threads.
University of Florida sophomore Maddie Kowalski learned a sexually explicit video of her, filmed inside a Phi Delta Theta fraternity house known as 'Fort,' was circulating online.

Amazon has struck a deal with OpenAI allowing advertisers to buy ChatGPT ad inventory through Amazon's demand-side platform, with Delta Vacations among the first U.S. brands testing the integration. Ads will appear as sponsored text and image units below ChatGPT's free and Go-tier responses, purchased on a cost-per-click or cost-per-thousand-impressions basis and managed by Amazon's team, though OpenAI retains control over ad delivery.
Newegg is selling a TeamGroup T-Force Delta RGB 32GB (2x16GB) DDR5-5200 memory kit for $389.99 using coupon code LUYRF228, down from $429.99. The kit runs at 5,200 MT/s with 40-40-40-76 timings, making it a mid-tier option rather than a top-speed choice for enthusiasts.
Yugoslav manufacturer Iskra Delta built its Partner microcomputer in the 1980s by assembling widely available components rather than designing everything in-house, following the industry shift pioneered by minicomputers and cemented by the IBM PC. The report traces the Partner's case specifically to a UK design origin, illustrating how even locally branded machines relied on components and designs sourced from elsewhere.
Delta has completed rollout of Delta Concierge, its generative AI travel assistant, to 100% of SkyMiles members as of August 2026. The tool, first unveiled by CEO Ed Bastian at CES in January 2025, helps travelers with flight disruptions, self-service cancellations, and bag tracking. The expansion has occurred under new chief digital & technology officer Amala Duggirala, who is extending AI beyond this assistant into other airline operations like baggage handling.
