I'm beginning to theorize if these solutions become too mainstream, we will stop seeing the cheap prices on TVs. The whole reason television costs didn't ramp up with "but ai made components more expensive" is because the spyware on the TV was the revenue, not the hardware itself
WTF, $3000 Samsung TV has an always-on mic, automatic content recognition, geo tracking, network mapping, and ships your data to Samsung + 400 partners.
Bro Rooted a brand-new 2025 Samsung TV after noticing absurdly targeted ads.
Firmware was locked down, so zero-days it was.
Got a root shell.
then found: always-on voice service, ACR, geo, full telemetry pipeline, and four separate DRM systems.
This isn’t a bug, It’s the product bro.

The new @tacobell Cake Batter empanadas are absolutely incredible. 9.5/10 and maybe the best fast food dessert out there
We need a wellness check on @Ledger 's CEO. Are they mentally handicapped?

yall are too late for this
NOT EVEN THE PLAYSTATION 5 IS SAFE 🚨
Someone jailbroke a PS5 and got Qwen 3.8 27B running on its GPU at 20 tok/s. That's a real 27B AI model running locally on a games console.
The same model on the PS5's CPU did about one token a minute.
Meanwhile, DDR4 prices are up 24% in 3 months, AMD just raised GPU memory prices, and 5090s are basically gone.
PS5 coming to a datacenter near you.
Has anyone managed to verify which carrier these eSIMs are under out of curiosity?
⚠️ UPDATE: A tampered Ledger can leak your 24-word recovery phrase over LTE.
Ledger says a hidden implant reads setup screens and transmits the phrase via eSIM—without modifying the Secure Element or OS.
Affected users and losses remain unknown. Genuine Check may miss it.

>a hacker finally uses zcash
>gets identified immediately
working as intended
Ledger theft, day two. Since yesterday the thief has pushed ether through Tornado Cash three times, and each time on into Zcash's shielded pool. We followed every lot out the far side. Here is how, step by step.
1. THE SAME BUILD, THREE TIMES
An ether wallet pays a fresh splitter. The splitter pays four fresh wallets. The four drop it into Tornado Cash's 100, 10 and 1 ETH pools. Minutes, every time.
Run 1, yesterday 15:17: 1,254 ETH. Run 2, today 09:42: 1,291 ETH. Run 3, today 11:56: 450 ETH from 0xfa4EaBB840A33C156E600311433AE261CBfCb0e2, in the pools by 12:15.
2. OUT OF TORNADO CASH
The mixer breaks the link between a deposit and a withdrawal. We do not need the link. Our tooling fingerprints the withdrawal transactions themselves: how each one is constructed, who constructs it, and when.
Yesterday's 65 withdrawals (1,084 ETH) and today's 96 (1,726 ETH) all carry the same signature. The six other withdrawals from those pools in today's windows do not. Run 3 came out from 12:18 into 0x0d697aa182801566d87adc86e68e95fd3b2f5f82 (213 ETH) and 0x676b16cc18542f37d202a1a79ac05463395496a4 (122 ETH), and 195 ETH of it was inside a cross-chain swap service by 12:38. Forty-two minutes, end to end.
3. INTO ZCASH, AND OUT AGAIN
The swap service turns the ether into shielded ZEC, where sender, amount and recipient vanish. But the service's own shielding of each lot is public, and from it we derive a value signature for that lot's exit, then scan every transparent exit from the pool. 108 of 108 exits across both days match their lot to the zatoshi. Not one other exit from the pool does.
First lot today: in at 10:18:18, out at 11:06:16 in block 3512847 (8d26a9b095d4d28373527f7a6eb81a3be7f906d1e2190960c0512ff64f369418 and 738c6d1261e79766e4dd16bdbd38dced91b8e3a86ce41dcda83eda1f19208fbf), straight into a ZEC to USDC order.
Today so far: 20 lots ordered (2,379 ZEC, $2.9m), 14 out, 5 inside the pool, 1 still settling. Every exit feeds a ZEC to USDC order paying two wallets born at 11:11, 22 of the 28 paid by 12:43:
0x816D5Ee17DB1495d1409F135b98FF3edc5F3cDf8: 940,561 USDC
0xBA736A4b616e79867B6d586293966b552883f3F3: 852,258 USDC
1.79m USDC, unspent. @Circle can freeze it.

2026 is a crazy year for Hardware wallet.
I've started tracking the funds drained in the Ledger exploit.
I think the damage is much more widespread than expected. Personally, I had never tracked anything of this magnitude.
It's a shame I don't have more time to devote to it right now, but I don't think this is just an exploit. I think it's a genuine compromise of Ledger through CryptoBilis reseller.
It may sound paradoxical, but if you own a recently purchased Ledger, you're better off moving your funds to safety on an exchange or to other wallets, depending on the assets you hold.
Take care of yourselves. An event like this is hard to contain, whatever Ledger will want people to believe, since all they can do is react.
I'm getting mixed signals guys

They were surprised to learn that there was no life saving equipment in the… EXECUTION ROOM
There was no medical oxygen or mask in the execution chamber where Tennessee tried and failed to kill convicted murderer Christa Pike, which meant staff had to go and get it when things went wrong, according to a source who witnessed what happened. nbcnews.com/news/us-news/-me…
That's such a proposterous idea. They'll layoff THOUSANDS more and make way worse decisions before they throw in the towel guys!

❗️ Amazon is giving its delivery drivers smart glasses that snap photos almost constantly to help its AI map neighbourhoods, capturing people and private property across potentially several thousand images per shift.
Asked whether customers can opt out, Amazon's Viraj Chatterjee said, "We haven't thought about that."
Amazon wants 20,000+ pairs on routes by end-2027 and confirmed the images can be obtained with a warrant.
