Even on a regular phone (the Air for me) this is set all the way to the left & I did it for the Duo too - just wish the keyboard was a little shorter all around tbh

Sam Altman thinks RAM sitting in personal computers is a waste when it could be put to better use in data centers.
Weird. I was just thinking that all those billions sitting in billionairesβ bank accounts could be put to much better use in our communities.

So let me get this right.
BP's profits just hit an 18 year high.
Meanwhile families are sat in coats at home because they're scared to put the heating on.
Why should we keep paying through the nose while they're raking it in?
Something is badly broken.
Does anyone else feel like this?

Time to just fucking nuke Ofcom out of existence. Absolute menace of an organisation. Basically just the Ministry of Truth at this point.
π¨BREAKING: All Britons may need ID to use social media, the UK's online safety regulator today announces
βThis plan for a government βsocial media banβ is a national ID system by the back door.
Both the government and Ofcom have admitted that children will get around the ban, which means the real effect will be normalising adults and children alike to hand over their passports just to get online.
Hundreds of thousands of people without ID, who tend to be poorer people, and many more who donβt want to risk handing their passports over to foreign tech companies will be locked out of huge parts of the internet.
The plan will kill anonymity online, whilst the UKβs culture of speech policing is reaching a crisis point. The policy is painfully misguided, an Orwellian assault on free speech and privacy, and will make children no safer at all.
The false illusion that children arenβt on social media will cause the companies to abandon all their child safety measures. The Government could be promoting meaningful safety measures and supporting parental controls that genuinely protect children - instead, theyβre demanding government ID from the whole population just for uncensored internet access. It is authoritarian madness.β

Everyone in the UK - VPNs on now.
Don't put your passport or tour bank details i to these honeypots of data.

Who knows how easy/quick it is to claim Tax back at LAX airport for purchases Iβve made here (clothes, electronics etc) when flying back to the UK?

WTF, $3000 Samsung TV has an always-on mic, automatic content recognition, geo tracking, network mapping, and ships your data to Samsung + 400 partners.
Bro Rooted a brand-new 2025 Samsung TV after noticing absurdly targeted ads.
Firmware was locked down, so zero-days it was.
Got a root shell.
then found: always-on voice service, ACR, geo, full telemetry pipeline, and four separate DRM systems.
This isnβt a bug, Itβs the product bro.

π¨ BREAKING: Node.js just dropped its OWN security bombshell.
4 HIGH-SEVERITY vulnerabilities patched TODAY, including one that could let hackers remotely execute malicious code on vulnerable servers.
β 10 SECURITY FLAWS were addressed in today's Node.js release, FOUR rated HIGH severity.
β REMOTE CODE EXECUTION: CVE-2026-111497 is a serious flaw in Node.js's Brotli decoder that could allow attackers to execute malicious code remotely.
β TLS SECURITY BYPASS: Two separate vulnerabilities could trick affected applications into accepting certificates for the WRONG server under certain conditions.
β Think about that. Your application could establish an encrypted connection while failing to properly verify WHO it's talking to.
β THREE MAJOR NODE.JS VERSIONS AFFECTED: Node.js 22, 24 and 26 all required emergency security updates.
β RUNNING NODE.JS 18 OR 20? Those versions are END-OF-LIFE and aren't receiving these official security patches.
β PATCH IMMEDIATELY: Update to Node.js 22.23.4, 24.22.1 or 26.12.1, depending on your release line. If you're using Docker, rebuild and redeploy your containers.
PHP AND Node.js both facing major security disclosures on the SAME DAY.
If you run a website or application, TODAY is the day to check your servers.
And remember: the public release of security patches can give attackers a roadmap to systems that haven't updated.
Don't be the last one to patch.
π¨ A MASSIVE internet security emergency is unfolding right now. π¨
Two CRITICAL vulnerabilities have been discovered in PHP, potentially putting millions of websites at risk.
β NEARLY 70% of websites with a known server-side language run PHP. The potential scale is ENORMOUS.
β TWO CRITICAL security flaws have been confirmed, each scoring 9.2/10 in severity.
β Attackers could potentially take control of vulnerable servers remotely, without authentication.
β Reports suggest PHP versions dating back to 2004 could be affected. The exact scope is still unconfirmed.
β EMERGENCY PATCHES are scheduled for TOMORROW at 10 AM ET. Website owners are being urged to prepare immediately.
β Europe's CERT-EU is warning organizations to patch ASAP or consider TAKING EXPOSED APPLICATIONS OFFLINE if they cannot be secured.
β WordPress, Magento, Laravel and potentially millions of other PHP-powered websites could be at risk.
β Once patches go public, hackers could reverse-engineer them and race to attack servers that haven't updated.
The vulnerabilities are CONFIRMED. The full technical details remain secret.
Tomorrow, the race between hackers and defenders begins.
This could get ugly. FAST.

π₯ First look at the Tesla app on the iPhone Duo!
When unfolded, the display shows a few improvements:
β
New reflection beneath the car
β
New colored halo around the car
The unfolded layout is similar to that of the current iPhone.

iPhone Duo isnβt even out yet and the Tesla app looks better than the Galaxy Fold Android version.
This is exactly why the iPhone Duo will be successful. Itβs always been about app optimization and thatβs where Android struggles.
