Pope Leo XIV attends the presentation of his first Encyclical Letter "Magnifica humanitas" on May 25, 2026 in Vatican City, Vatican. | Getty Images Pope Leo XIV warned of the risks of AI and unconstrained technological power in his first major papal document released on Monday. Magnifica Humanitas is the pope's manifesto on "safeguarding the human person in the time of artificial intelligence," in which he discusses the dangers of AI-powered warfare, the effects of AI on labor, and the need for new legal and ethical frameworks to govern technology.
In his papal encyclical - a kind of open letter from the Catholic Church - Pope Leo stressed the economic and social upheaval that rapid AI adoption is creating,...

There are a surprising number of experiments an amateur nuclear physicist can perform, from making a Geiger counter to fusing hydrogen atoms in a fusor. One project which we haven’t seen before is a neutron generator, such as the benchtop neutron generator made by [Rapp Instruments] (translated). This particular generator takes a feedstock of pure deuterium, which it ionizes and accelerates into a titanium target. The first deuterium nuclei to hit the target react with it to form titanium deuteride, immobilizing them until more ions strike them and they undergo nuclear fusion. The fusion reaction mostly forms helium-4, but sometimes forms helium-3 and a free neutron, which is radiated away. The radiated...

Processor design over the last few decades has moved toward RISC processors that aim to implement a few simple operations very efficiently. For a while, though, the trend was toward ever-more-complex CISC designs that let programmers implement complex behaviors using as few instructions as possible. Few processors took this approach further than the Intel iAPX432. This hyper-CISC processor was a commercial failure, largely due to its notoriously poor performance, but [MarkTheQuasiEngineer]’s benchmark suggests that this notoriety wasn’t totally deserved. The first step before running a benchmark was to build a computer around the processor. The iAPX432 was implemented in three chips, two of which acted as...

Law enforcement operations against pirate streaming networks have been a regular occurrence, particularly inside the EU. This includes Italy, where the financial police, Guardia di Finanza (GdF), has routinely cracked down on the “pezzotto,” the term used for selling IPTV streaming boxes and subscriptions.
This week the financial police in Ravenna announced something they say is different. In an operation named “Tutto Chiaro” (“All Clear”), coordinated by the Bologna prosecutor’s office, around 200 officers carried out more than 100 searches and seizures across Italy, with parallel action in France and Germany.
At the center of the crackdown is an app called CinemaGoal. The GdF calls the...

A twenty-sided die (d20) is a common thing in tabletop gaming, and [kati]’s slightly sentient d20 is a PCB that not only delivers random results on demand, but responds to hot and cold streaks and may even tweak the results a little to reflect its mood.
On its face the unit is a touch-sensitive PCB with twenty small charlieplexed LEDs around its perimeter, one for each die result. When activated by a touch on the center pad, the die dutifully animates a die roll and delivers a result. But something happens if the RNG (random number generator) coughs up results that are unusually lucky, or unlucky.
In addition to moods, there are reportedly other hidden features to discover.
After a streak of natural 1s, the...

Depuis 1957, les institutions européennes ont intégré une politique de la concurrence structurée autour des industries traditionnelles. Pourtant l'UE se heurte aujourd'hui à de nouveaux enjeux liés aux géants du numérique, face auxquels elle se retrouve parfois dépourvue. Comment l'UE peut-elle repenser sa stratégie pour éviter de devenir un simple marché captif des GAFAM ? Les bases de la concurrence en Europe
La politique de concurrence européenne puise ses sources dans les traités fondateurs de l'Union. Introduits dans le Traité de Rome en 1957, les articles 81 et 82, devenus les articles 101 et 102 du TFUE suite au Traité de Lisbonne en 2009, encadrent respectivement les ententes...

With so many online messaging services to choose from it’s almost as though the daddy of them all, email, has faded into the background as something you only use for more formal contacts. But it’s still the underpinning of much of the business world’s electronic communication and is likely to stay so for the foreseeable future. The BBC Archive takes us back to a time when email was relatively new, when in 1986 [Lesley Judd] takes a very chunky 1980s laptop on a plane from London to the Netherlands, and sends an email to her colleague at home using a payphone and an acoustic coupler.

Hiking is one of life's great joys. Turning off the screens and stepping out into nature for an extended period of time, perhaps even several days, is rejuvenating. Unfortunately, as someone with two young kids and a bad back, I'm not really able to go backpacking anymore. So I often find myself trying to live vicariously through others who write about their lengthy travails along the Appalachian or the PCT. That's what I thought I was signing up for when I picked up On Trails: An Exploration by Robert Moor. But it turned out to be so much more.
The prologue starts with Moor talking about his decision to thru-hike the Appalachian Trail. And …

This weekend features the final round in the Premier League football season, but the league’s anti-piracy enforcement machine is showing no signs of slowing down. On Wednesday, the Premier League took its legal concerns to a California federal court. Specifically, it requested a DMCA subpoena to compel domain registrar Tucows to identify the operators of a fresh batch of pirate sports-streaming sites.
Premier League’s Subpoena
The legal paperwork lists a web of pirate sports streaming domains and redirects, identifying 25 targets. Many of these sites use well-known sports pirate brands, including Totalsportek, Sportsurge, and Rojadirecta, which are not necessarily linked to the original operations. Tucows...
