If I say “Apple”, no doubt you think “security”.
Unfortunately, nothing could be further from the truth.
In fact, you might even be making it EASIER for the bad guys to spy on you if you use an iPhone.
In any case, the cat’s out of the bag – and it’s all thanks to US spying on Russia!
What a crazy world…

SIGH…
Here’s how to turn it OFF!!

Wouldn’t it be nice if your browser was just, well, a simple WEB BROWSER again??
Watch and learn just how EASY it is!!

When you hear the word “linux”, you probably think of nerds hidden away in a cramped office, managing all the servers that make our high-tech modern world actually go.
You probably also associate “linux” with “security”.
Unfortunately, recent events have shown that the truth is a bit more… holey. Like, Swiss cheese holey.
From Copy Fail to cPanel to Dirty Frag, the linux server community has been utterly hammered by nasty exploits in the past weeks.
We’ll tell you what happened, what it means, and how to protect yourself and your gizmos!

Palantir’s got a manifesto for conquering the world (including you and me).
AI is super-awesome, but it’s stealing jobs even though it often doesn’t work – at all.
And of course the economy is just fine and we’re Epic Winning… even though we can’t afford fuel and food.

Just what the heck is going on??

There are a lot of AI Doom stories going around. You know, “SkyNet is coming!” and that sort of thing.
It makes for great headlines, especially for AI-centered companies that are having a really hard time actually making a profit.
So, ARE we all gonna die? I dunno – maybe!
But there’s a much better question we should be asking: WHY does AI go bad and do evil things?
The answer is high-tech, but the problem itself is not…
What do I mean? Watch and find out!

Either they didn’t watch Terminator, or they watched it too much…
There’s a problem with AI data centers: they need a LOT of power, and there isn’t enough to go around.
What to do?
Why, perfect the future of power generation: nuclear fusion!
And then use it to power AI… But hang on, what about us humans??

In our glorious modern age, we are more connected than ever by technology.
At the same time, we are more DISconnected than ever from each other!
AI is only serving to amplify this division – but it doesn’t have to be that way.
