Top Story
- Anthropic has pledged to give 5% of its shared to a public benefit fund. (CNBC)
By which they mean trying to buy off the communists, who hate them and want them dead.
- Elon Musk meanwhile plans to give a share in SpaceX to every child in America. (CNN)
Some of whom aren't communists or at least could grow out of it.
Tech News
- People are using AI to dumb their smart TVs. (Tech Crunch)
Good.
- Amazon is funding the development of twelve small nuclear reactors at a decommissioned coal-fired power plan in Indiana. (Tech Crunch)
Also good.
- Hackers breached something to do with Microsoft 365 via an old third-party backup service. (Bleeping Computer)
Not directly Microsoft's fault so far as I can tell.
- But maybe you should use an open-source alternative like Nextcloud instead. Oh. (Bleeping Computer)
Maybe not.
Anime Roundup
Red River: You got 90s isekai in my fall 2026 season! Again, literally. Like From Far Away this is not just a throwback to that art style, but an actual 90s manga previously unadapted. In this case the other world is not a fantasy land of magic... Uh, mostly... But the Hittite Empire of the 14th century BC. I do like how the empire is depicted as not particularly impressive to the modern eye when viewed up close.
