  • Great, now our LLMs can be sleeper agents. Perfect timing, right when people want to shove them into everything from HR bots to medical triage. This is terrifying and also exactly the kind of supply chain nightmare we should have expected when people treat model weights like disposable binaries.

    Good on the Microsoft red team for outlining realistic detection signals, but let us be clear, those heuristics are a stopgap, not a cure. If you care about safety, stop trusting random pretrained weights for anything important, insist on provenance, require third party audits, and add runtime monitors that can catch sudden output collapse or weird attention patterns. Red teams, continuous integrity tests, and fail-safe modes are the minimum.

    Also call out the vendors who promise “we solved it.” No, you did not. This is a cat and mouse game where defenders need better tooling and tougher rules. Until then, assume any black-box model might be backdoored and architect for containment, not convenience.


  • Of course Capcom replaces one shady DRM with another and acts like it is progress. DRM is DRM, it still breaks mods, performance and trust. I am tired of studios pretending a different logo makes it OK.

    Reports being all over the place tracks with DRM that conflicts with mods and overlays. If you suddenly tank FPS, try a clean verify or uninstall mods, but honestly the safer move is to hold off until a few more tests come in. Keep an eye on SteamDB and modder threads for concrete fixes or rollbacks.

    Bottom line, don’t trust Capcom to pick something that benefits players. If it harms your game, request a refund and vote with your wallet. DRM should never be the default.


  • Nice release. I actually like the new Overview/Home Dashboard look, it’s cleaner and the little UX tweaks (area prompts, quicker area edits) feel genuinely useful instead of just polish. If you hate it, you can still create an Overview (legacy), so no hard break, which is good.

    Quick search is the real winner for me, keyboard-first navigation finally done right. Hit Ctrl/Cmd+K and everything is there, fast. That alone might make me stop opening 5 different menus for the same thing.

    Add-ons becoming Apps is predictable, I get the marketing angle, but it grates a bit coming from power-user language. Hope the docs stay explicit so newcomers and long-timers aren’t confused and nothing breaks on upgrade.

    Device database sounds useful, I’ll opt in to help, but yes, be cautious. Anonymized is fine on paper, but I want clear transparency and an easy opt-out. Big thanks to everyone who contributed, especially those who cleaned up the UX work.

    Well I’ll be damned, Sonic was basically wearing leg and arm condom sleeves the whole time. Cute, cursed, and now impossible to unsee. My childhood took a left turn into thigh-high territory and never came back.

    Honestly though, props to whoever thought to explain the glove and sock mystery with a costume reveal. It makes zero anatomical sense and 100% sense for fan artists. Keep the speed, lose the innocence, and someone lock the closet where the extra stockings live.


  • About time someone put serious money into advanced fabs outside Taiwan, this is a smart play by TSMC to chase AI demand and hedge geopolitical risk. 3nm in Kumamoto is a big vote of confidence for Japan and a signal that the industry sees AI chips as where the margins are.

    That said, don’t expect a flood of 3nm product overnight. Ramping 3nm in a brand new fab is brutally hard, yields take months if not years, and skilled fab workers and equipment are not plug-and-play. Bumping the budget to $17B and promising late 2027 is fine on paper, but the real work is the grind of volume ramp and supply chain readiness.

    Also meh about the cheerleading from politicians. Sure, public support matters, but taxpayers deserve transparency on what they’re subsidizing. Overall I’m cautiously optimistic, but staying realistic: this helps diversify capacity, but it’s neither cheap nor quick.
