| Facebook donates £1 million to help save UK’s WWII code-breaking center Bletchley Park Posted: 12 Oct 2020 04:01 PM PDT  A former Bletchley Park employee, Jean Valentine, handles part of the Turing Bombe — an electromechanical computer used to crack Nazi Germany's Enigma code during WWII. | Photo by Rui Vieira / PA Images via Getty Images Facebook is donating £1 million ($1.3 million) to Bletchley Park, the UK center for Allied code-breaking during World War II that now operates as a museum. The Bletchley Park Trust, a registered charity, announced in August that the site was facing a revenue shortfall of £2 million because of falling visitor numbers caused by the coronavirus. Because of the drop in revenue (amounting to 95 percent of annual income), the park announced it was considering 35 redundancies, constituting a third of its workforce. Facebook's donation will save some of these jobs, but it's not clear how many. Facebook said it made the donation in recognition of Bletchley Park's "ongoing... |
| US joins six countries in new call for backdoor encryption access Posted: 12 Oct 2020 01:59 PM PDT  On Monday, the US Department of Justice signed on to a new international statement warning of the dangers of encryption and calling for an industry-wide effort to enable law enforcement agencies to access encrypted data once a warrant has been obtained. The US was joined in the effort by officials representing the UK, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, India, and Japan. The statement begins by acknowledging the value of encryption in protecting free expression across the world, citing a 2017 report from the UN Human Rights Commission. But the statement quickly pivots to the ostensible problems posed by the technology. "Particular implementations of encryption technology, however, pose significant challenges to public... |
| Alphabet’s latest X project is a crop-sniffing plant buggy Posted: 12 Oct 2020 01:41 PM PDT  Photo: Alphabet Alphabet's X lab, the former Google division that launched the Waymo self-driving car unit and other ambitious projects, has taken the wraps off its latest "moonshot": a computational agriculture project the company is calling Mineral. The project is focused on sustainable food production and farming at large scales, with a focus on "developing and testing a range of software and hardware prototypes based on breakthroughs in artificial intelligence, simulation, sensors, robotics and more," according to project lead Elliott Grant. A blog post outlining the project's vision says Mineral, which now has an official name but was formally announced back in 2019, will try and aim technology toward solving issues around sustainability.

| Panasonic has made it way easier to use Lumix cameras as webcams Posted: 12 Oct 2020 12:00 PM PDT  Photo by Chris Welch / The Verge Panasonic has released an official Lumix webcam app, as first spotted by PetaPixel. The software, still in beta since its quiet release late last month, lets you plug your camera into your Mac or Windows machine and have it recognized as a video source in apps like Google Meet and Zoom. Panasonic's official software replaces the workaround hack the company introduced back in June. Panasonic's workaround was necessary because of the webcam shortage during early months of the COVID-19 pandemic. But it was far more cumbersome than a native app, requiring you use Panasonic's hack to remove the tethering app's overlaid interface and then direct the live feed from the camera through an intermediary like Open Broadcaster Software (OBS).

| MSCHF is going to pay people to hate on brands using viral TikToks Posted: 12 Oct 2020 11:04 AM PDT  After an escalating series of viral stunts, internet collective MSCHF is taking on advertising itself. On Monday, the collective posted a series of jingles on TikTok aimed as a broadside against the primary source of funding for social networks. Some of the jingles call out the general concept, while others take on specific brands the group has decided to target: Amazon, Comcast, Facebook, Fashion Nova, the NFL, Palantir, Purdue, and even TikTok itself. "We had our team [do some] digging on them, and found nine that had some form of dirt we didn't like and wanted to bring to light more," Daniel Greenberg, MSCHF's creative strategist, tells The Verge. "Attack TikTok for content suppression. Attack Fashion Nova for stealing designs and... |
