New: I talked to Trump Media investors about their shares' value getting cut in half. A tree remover in Oklahoma who bet basically his whole nest egg told me, “This isn’t just another stock … I feel like it was God Almighty that put it in my lap" https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2024/04/14/truth-social-investors-faith-trump/

"McLain is an amateur trader — he invested only once before and “lost [his] butt” — and said he hasn’t talked to his family about his investment, saying, “You know how that is.” "

Oof. Sorry, family.

    The paint job on this fence on Anza St. near 9th is neat; it's kinda trompe-l'œil, kinda not.

    Possible future headline: In what AI executives are calling a major breakthrough, a totally hallucinating, misinformation filled, obnoxious and obscene LLM generative AI system independently duplicated a recent Trump rally speech word for word.

    Here's what we are reading today:

    plans to produce a million FPV drones in 2024, said its minister for strategic industries.

    Ukraine also aims to manufacture more than 11,000 medium- and long-range attack drones.

    In December 2023, produced just 50,000 FPV drones.

    I can't even begin to count the hours of research that went into this story. Frustrated that most of that research went in the wrong direction for so long. But also very excited to share what I found, and that I finally have something to show for it all:

    On Dec. 18, 2013, KrebsOnSecurity broke the news that U.S. retail giant Target was battling a wide-ranging computer intrusion that compromised more than 40 million customer payment cards over the previous month. The malware used in the Target breach included the text string “Rescator,” which also was the handle chosen by the cybercriminal who was selling all of the cards stolen from Target customers. Ten years later, KrebsOnSecurity has uncovered new clues about the real-life identity of Rescator.

    Why Egypt doesn't want Palestinians in Gaza to cross the border.

    @NPR reports: "Some 85% of Gaza's 2.3 million people have been internally displaced since the start of the war, according to the United Nations."

    7,200 images per hour—or two every second.

    That’s how many screenshots smart TVs are taking to identify the shows you watch, and ultimately, target ads and make content recommendations. ⬇️
