Digital Services Act: Drei weitere Trusted Flagger benannt
Der deutsche Digital Services Coordinator bei der Bundesnetzagentur hat heute drei weiteren Organisationen den Status als sogenannte Trusted Flagger verliehen.

Nach iOS 26 und macOS 26: Benennt Apple auch das iPhone um?
Apple hat wohl vor, seine Versionsnummer bei Betriebssystemen durch Jahreszahlen zu ersetzen. Ähnliches könnte auch für Geräte angedacht sein.

I’m not a Coffee Guy™ (I don’t even drink the stuff), but this video about the V60 drip coffee brewer is fascinating.

There’s exactly 1 narrow way that it’s true. Before widespread #WFH, attackers often had an insurmountable barrier: no way into the business network from the Internet. At the last gig (2008) where I had to visit a “workplace” regularly, inbound remote access was officially non-existent & outbound Internet access all went through restrictive web proxies.

Attached: 1 image This Daily Mail piece about security leaders thinking work-from-home means they will be crippled is horseshit, I'm not linking it. They've taken a survey about how security people think their businesses couldn't survive ransomware, and linked it to working from home. WFH isn't the problem: business IT and resilience being built on quicksand is the problem.

Researchers tested 200 toddlers — 96 chemicals were lurking in their bodies
Researchers testing urine from 2- to 4-year-olds in four U.S. states uncovered 96 different chemicals, many of them unmonitored and linked to hormone and brain disruption. Legacy toxins like triclosan are slowly declining, yet replacements such as DINCH plasticizer and modern pesticides are rising. Toddlers—especially the youngest, later-born, and those from minority groups—often carried higher levels than their own mothers. Scientists urge expanded biomonitoring and stricter regulations be…

Coupling Electromagnetism to Torsion: Black Holes and Spin-Charge Interactions
The coupling between matter fields and gravity (encoded in the geometry of spacetime) can be realized in various ways. Most commonly, a minimal coupling principle is employed, meaning that all matter fields, except spinors, couple only to the spacetime metric, while spinors additionally couple to the spacetime connection. Non-minimal couplings between matter fields and spacetime curvature can arise, for example, from quantum field theory on curved spacetime through renormalization corrections, …

Die gefährliche Verniedlichung Putins: @… kritisiert Intellektuelle und Politiker, die russische Narrative bedienen und damit Putins imperialen Krieg verharmlosen. Wer nicht klar benennt, was geschieht, wird zum Komplizen der Zerstörung #Russland

Die gefährliche Verniedlichung Putins – Vom Verdrängen zur Verblendung - ichsagmal.com
Es gehört zur deutschen Krankheit, das Offensichtliche nicht sehen zu wollen – zumindest dann, wenn es unbequem ist. Und was könnte unbequemer sein als das Eingeständnis, jahrzehntelang einem Diktator aufgesessen zu sein, der seine geopolitischen Ambitionen nie wirklich verborgen hat? Stattdessen erleben wir in Talkshows, Feuilletons und sogar auf Regierungsebene eine paradoxe Allianz aus Besserwisserei … Die gefährliche Verniedlichung Putins – Vom Verdrängen zur Verblendung weiterle…

AI-Augmented OTDR Fault Localization Framework for Resilient Rural Fiber Networks in the United States
This research presents a novel framework that combines traditional Optical Time-Domain Reflectometer (OTDR) signal analysis with machine learning to localize and classify fiber optic faults in rural broadband infrastructures. The proposed system addresses a critical need in the expansion of middle-mile and last-mile networks, particularly in regions targeted by the U.S. Broadband Equity, Access, and Deployment (BEAD) Program. By enhancing fault diagnosis through a predictive, AI-based model, th…

Ground calibration plan for the Athena/X-IFU microcalorimeter spectrometer
The X-ray Integral Field Unit is the X-ray imaging spectrometer on-board one of ESA's next large missions, Athena. Athena is set to investigate the theme of the Hot and Energetic Universe, with a launch planned in the late-2030s. Based on a high sensitivity Transition Edge Sensor (TES) detector array operated at very low temperature (50 mK), X-IFU will provide spatially resolved high resolution spectroscopy of the X-ray sky in the 0.2-12 keV energy band, with an energy resolution goal of 4 eV u…
