On a blustery March day, the artist Jim Sanborn received visitors at his studio on an isolated island in the Chesapeake Bay. The visitors sat him down in front of a laptop, and he typed in a secret message. They compressed the message using a unique hash function, sent that to the cloud, and wiped the laptop clean. Sanborn hoped that this action would set him free. But did it?That’s the latest twist in the story of Kryptos, the famous Sanborn sculpture that’s been sitting outside CIA headquarters in Langley, Virginia, since 1990. The artwork is a copper S-curve that…
Xiaomi has always been known for affordable smartphones and smart home gadgets. But over the last year and a half, the company has quietly turned itself into one of the most ambitious AI players in the world. From large language models and voice cloning to an autonomous phone agent and a massive investment war chest, Xiaomi is moving fast. Here is everything you need to know about where Xiaomi is in the big AI and LLM race. Where did Xiaomi enter the LLM race Xiaomi’s AI story really kicked off in April 2025, when the company released MiMo-7B, its first…
It’s not uncommon nowadays for upcoming games to release a free demo, run a network test or open beta, or otherwise let players experience the game ahead of launch and provide feedback as to what is and isn’t working for them. But what is rare and pleasant is actually getting to see very specific, significant, and direct results of that feedback actually implemented, like we have with The Adventures of Elliot: The Millennium Tales, including the feedback that one of the main characters needs to shut their dang pie hole. Typically, publishers will answer questions about what changes were made…
Within an hour after a horrific knife attack took place in Belfast on Monday night, far-right UK activist Tommy Robinson had shared a video of the incident on X, a post that racked up six million views. Within hours Elon Musk, the owner of the platform, weighed in, agreeing with a post calling for “consequences” for politicians.By Tuesday morning, supercharged by X, the video was everywhere, and groups on Facebook were organizing protests across Northern Ireland and the UK. Far-right figures in the US and UK continued to pour fuel on the fire online, framing the incident as part of…
Nothing has not officially announced the Ear (3a) yet, but some early details are already coming to light. Last year, Nothing introduced the Ear (3) as its flagship pair of wireless earbuds. Now, the London-based company appears to be working on a more budget-friendly version, the Nothing Ear (3a). This isn’t entirely surprising. Nothing did something similar back in 2024 when it launched the Ear (a) as a cheaper alternative alongside the Ear (3), skipping what many expected to be an “Ear (2a).” Nothing Ear (3) So far, the only confirmed trace of the product comes from an Indonesian regulatory…
Injustice: Gods Among Us was a pretty good fighting game with a really good comic-book story. Anyone who didn’t want to pay full price to experience that story could just wait for all of the cutscenes to be uploaded to YouTube instead. The dynamics of streaming across Twitch and other platforms are now widely accepted within gaming, but there are still developers who are clearly concerned about fans who might be content to watch someone else play their games rather than going out, buying them, and playing them themselves. One of those developers is Naoki Hamaguchi, the director of the…
Steven Spielberg’s new film Disclosure Day imagines the moment 8 billion humans find out that we are not alone in the universe.The movie, which opens in US theaters on June 12, is a fictional account of the government cover-up and subsequent “disclosure” of evidence that aliens have contacted Earth.The UFO community has been chasing that type of cinematic big reveal for 80 years. But it’s more likely that monumental scientific discoveries, like the detection of the Higgs boson in 2012 and the confirmation of gravitational waves in 2016, are a better guideline for how real-world disclosure is likely to play…
Two of China’s biggest camera brands are now taking each other to court in the US. DJI filed not one but two lawsuits against Insta360 just days ago, on or around June 10, 2026. The target is Insta360’s newly launched Luna series of gimbal cameras, which DJI claims bear a little too much resemblance, both visually and technically, to their Osmo Pocket line. Both suits were filed in the US District Court for the Eastern District of Texas. What exactly is DJI accusing them of? The first lawsuit is about design patents. DJI is arguing that the Luna cameras look…

The handling at that top speed was excellent. Thanks to the comfortable upright position and frame geometry, cruising along at 28 miles per hour felt smooth and comfortable. Turning at speed and quickly adjusting to avoid a pothole was also easy and smooth, even when I was gunning the throttle. The thrill of riding fast on the H/T comes from the exhilaration of speed, not the fear of losing control.I appreciate that there’s no app to go along with the H/T. It makes hopping on the bike and going for a ride feel much more natural than it does with…
