▸ • Meta is literally beaming solar power from space to run its data centers at night.
▸ • DeepSeek drops V3.2 with a new sparse attention architecture that slashes compute for massive context windows.
▸ • Turtle Beach slapped a touchscreen on a gaming mouse because we've officially run out of good ideas.
Meta just signed a contract with Overview Energy to beam solar power from space down to Earth at night. Because why build a normal power grid when you can use orbital energy lasers to keep the metaverse running?
Dummy units of the rumored Galaxy Z Fold 8 'Wide' have leaked, showing Samsung is finally embracing the chunky aesthetic. It's wider, it's flatter, and it's coming for your pocket space later this year.
Google is shipping a native Prompt API directly in Chrome, allowing web apps to tap into local AI models without server roundtrips. It's a massive win for privacy and latency, assuming your laptop fans can handle the heat.
The beloved PostgreSQL backup tool pgbackrest is officially no longer being maintained. Pour one out for the reliable open-source workhorse that saved countless DBAs from 3 AM panic attacks.
DeepSeek's new V3.2 model introduces O(Lk) Sparse Attention (DSA), which drastically cuts computational overhead for 128K context windows. By using a 'Lightning Indexer' to only select the top-k relevant tokens, it solves the quadratic scaling problem of traditional attention mechanisms. It's a massive leap for sustainable, long-context AI that doesn't require melting a data center.
Automakers like GM and Nissan are ditching traditional clay models and sketches for AI-driven 3D visualization platforms like Neural Concept. The shift is drastically speeding up aerodynamic testing and iteration, proving AI is finally doing more than just writing bad marketing emails.
Remember 'Legacy,' the hyped play-to-earn game that sold millions in NFTs? It was effectively dead within weeks of launch. It's a fascinating post-mortem on how the crypto gaming bubble burst, leaving players holding the bag while the creators walked away flush with cash.
Pylon just open-sourced a daemon that turns webhooks and cron jobs into sandboxed AI coding agent runs. It spins up Claude Code or OpenCode in isolated Docker containers to automatically triage Sentry errors or review PRs without exposing your infrastructure.
OpenClaude is a new open-source coding-agent CLI that supports over 200 models via OpenAI-compatible APIs, Gemini, and Ollama. It brings prompts, tools, and MCP into a single terminal-first workflow for developers who refuse to leave the command line.
OpenHarness is a lightweight infrastructure framework for multi-agent coordination, tool-use, and memory. It ships with 'ohmo,' a personal AI agent designed for long-running sessions across platforms like Slack and Feishu rather than just one-off chats.
Turtle Beach has released a $160 wireless gaming mouse with a 2.25-inch touchscreen slapped on the side. Because looking at your primary monitor, secondary monitor, and phone simply wasn't enough screen time for one gaming session.
Premium notebook maker Moleskine is getting roasted online for using AI-generated art in their new Lord of the Rings collection. Turns out, Tolkien fans actually care about human craftsmanship—who would have guessed?
