    Strawberry Moon Low and Last | Tech News

    Tonight’s Strawberry Moon peaks at 8 PM Eastern, but don’t expect a high sky show—it’s the lowest full moon of the year thanks to Earth’s tilt during the summer solstice. Named after Native American harvest traditions, not its color, and also the last “micro moon” of 2024 (slightly farther away, appearing smaller and dimmer), it’s a rare celestial combo. In Europe, it’s also called the Honey Moon—perfect timing for June weddings. Grab your binoculars, but watch for trees blocking the view.

    Waymo and Uber Part Ways in Phoenix | Tech News

    Waymo’s self-driving cars are pulling out of Phoenix’s Uber app after a three-year pilot, marking the end of their partnership in the city — though Waymo’s vehicles remain available via Uber in Austin and Atlanta. Uber’s preparing to launch a new AV partnership in Phoenix, but the identity of their new partner is under wraps. The split coincides with Waymo’s rollout of new self-driving vans and escalating competition with Uber, especially as both companies eye London next year. Despite the breakup, both firms hailed the Phoenix trial as a success — Waymo citing hundreds of thousands of completed trips, Uber calling it a foundational test that accelerated their growth in other markets.

    South Korea's AI Chip Bet | Tech News

    South Korea is betting big on AI chips, with Samsung and SK Hynix pouring over $500 billion into four new memory factories in the southwest—part of a $900 billion national push to dominate the next industrial era. Backed by government incentives and massive corporate commitments—including $1 trillion from Samsung and $2 trillion from SK Group—this AI semiconductor blitz aims to make Korea an “irreplaceable” tech force by 2026. But with construction taking years and demand surging, the world is watching to see if South Korea can actually deliver. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.

    Betting on Wildfires Raises Ethical Alarm | Tech News

    Wildfires rage, homes burn, and somewhere out there, people are betting on how bad it’ll get. Prediction markets are letting folks wager millions on wildfire acreage, containment dates, and spread—turning disaster into gambling. Critics call it cruel and ethically bankrupt, especially when survivors lose everything. Worse, these markets could incentivize arson or reckless fire behavior, alarming agencies like the U.S. Forest Service, which outright rejects any financial tie to wildfire outcomes. A new platform, Wyldfyre, is priming for real-money bets on California fires, claiming to use NASA data to turn crowd wisdom into forecasts—but official agencies say no, they rely on science, not speculation. As states begin to regulate, one survivor’s plea rings true: if you profit from fire, at least give it back to those who lost everything.

    Clean Energy Projects Stalled | Tech News

    Trump-era permitting delays are threatening nearly 92 gigawatts of clean energy projects, just as AI data centers are exploding electricity demand. Seven gigawatts have already been canceled on federal land, with another 12 on federal land and 80 on private property—costing over $121 billion in investments. Data centers could triple their power use by 2035, straining the grid, while federal efforts to speed up connections haven’t solved the bottleneck. The biggest U.S. grid, home to most data centers, has blocked new power for four years. Renewables still dominate new capacity, but mounting regulatory friction threatens to stall the green energy boom. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.

    Supreme Court Protects Your Phone Location | Tech News

    The Supreme Court just handed down a landmark ruling that your cell phone location history is private—and cops now need a search warrant to get it. In a major win for digital privacy, the Court affirmed that the Fourth Amendment protects your location data, overturning the old idea that sharing info with tech companies means you forfeit privacy. The decision stems from a case involving Okello Chatrie, whose trial relied on broad geofence warrants that scooped up data from innocent people. While the Court didn’t ban these warrants, it made clear they must be narrowly tailored and backed by probable cause. Now, law enforcement must justify their requests more carefully, and some companies are already adjusting how they store location data to limit police access. This ruling reshapes how authorities can track you—and puts your digital privacy back in the driver’s seat. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.

No QR codes yet, but you can switch it up anytime.

    Google is sounding the alarm over new EU Digital Markets Act rules that could force it to share anonymized search data and open Android to rival AI services — a move its security team warns could unleash a flood of fraud and cybercrime across Europe.

    California Bans Loud Streaming Ads

    California just cracked down on jarring, overly loud streaming ads—effective July 1—with a new rule requiring ads to match the volume of the content they interrupt. Spearheaded by State Senator Thomas Umberg, the law aims to help tired parents and everyone who’s ever been woken up by a commercial blast. Streaming giants pushed back, citing technical challenges across devices, but the law stands. It’s a simple fix: ads shouldn’t overpower what you’re watching.

    The Texture We Lost in Tech

    We’ve traded sensory richness for convenience, losing touch with the texture of everyday life through tech like automatic toilets and electric cars. This “dematerialization” isn’t just about gadgets—it’s shaped by bureaucracy and economics too. The author argues we’ve overlooked the value of doing things ourselves, and while tech improves life, we’ve missed the trade-off. Instead of waiting for big societal shifts, he urges us to find joy in small, tangible experiences right now—because reconnecting with our senses doesn’t require revolution, just awareness.

    Tesla FSD Under Fire as Waymo Expands

    Tesla’s Full Self-Driving system is under fresh scrutiny after a fatal crash in Texas that killed a woman, sparking investigations from federal safety agencies — even as Tesla’s AI VP points fingers at the driver, leaving key system details murky. This follows a recent settlement over another fatal incident, part of a broader probe into FSD’s performance in low-visibility conditions. Meanwhile, Waymo is rolling out its new Ojai robotaxis, built by Zeekr in China, signaling serious expansion plans for the U.S. and beyond. The U.S. DOT is also proposing to eliminate brake pedals for self-driving cars — a major regulatory win for Tesla and Zoox — while Lucid Motors cuts 15% of its workforce to streamline operations. Lyft is raising the bar by mandating multi-sensor setups for AVs, potentially sidelining Tesla’s camera-only FSD. And Waymo’s new German entity hints at global robotaxi ambitions.

    Micron Soars as AI Memory Demand Explodes

    Micron’s stock just exploded, briefly outpacing Meta and Tesla, fueled by AI’s hunger for high-bandwidth memory chips. As tech giants and PC makers race to power up AI servers, Micron’s once-dormant memory business is now a runaway success—revenue quadrupled, profits soared, and Wall Street’s love affair with AI has Micron riding high. The “RAMageddon” shortage is driving up prices for everything from gaming consoles to smartphones, while Micron locks in future deals with Nvidia and Anthropic to secure its throne. Analysts say demand still outstrips supply, making this boom feel unstoppable—even if its long-term sustainability remains uncertain. In the AI era, memory isn’t just important—it’s king.

    My NAS Upgrade Journey

    Trying to back up files led to a wild NAS adventure—old Drobo dead, market flooded with powerful new boxes, prices sky-high, used gear scarce, and noise levels a concern.
