Ashley St. Clair set up Elon Musk—her lawsuit’s evidence reveals

https://x.com/ShadowofEzra/status/1893395104414462211

Ashley St. Clair photographed Elon Musk's text messages from a secondary device.

Why? Because the messages were set to disappear.

She claimed to value "privacy," yet she secretly captured screenshots of Elon’s private Signal messages, which were designed to expire.

The real question: How long was she plotting this? She had to use another phone since Signal notifies users when someone takes a screenshot.

 

**Author's opinion:** Photos, if real, hint for a real danger and "credible death threats" because of his recent job as a DOGE executive officer

Who Runs Elon Musk’s DOGE? Not Musk, the White House Says.

https://www.nytimes.com/2025/02/18/us/politics/elon-musk-doge-leader.html

Who, exactly, runs the so-called Department of Government Efficiency?

You might think it would be Elon Musk, the man who President Trump said “will lead the Department of Government Efficiency” alongside Vivek Ramaswamy, before Mr. Ramaswamy stepped away from it last month.

$100B Satoshi Nakamoto Bitcoin Wallet Price Warning Issued After Mystery Deepens

https://www.forbes.com/sites/digital-assets/2025/02/10/new-evidence-could-be-about-to-blow-up-the-mystery-of-bitcoins-satoshi-nakamoto/

As a result, interest in the mystery of Satoshi Nakamoto—the creator of bitcoin whose real world identity has remained unknown even as the bitcoin price tops $100,000—has surged, with a HBO documentary last year claiming to have finally unmasked him.

Now, as Tesla billionaire Elon Musk confirms his bitcoin-inspired plans for the U.S. Treasury, a Coinbase executive has claimed Satoshi Nakamoto’s identity may be known by the rival crypto exchange Kraken—as fresh data puts his bitcoin stockpile at a value of over $100 billion.

After Recent Kernel Drama, Rust for Linux Policy Put in Place

https://news.itsfoss.com/rust-kernel-policy-linux/

A new Linux kernel drama has unfolded over these past few weeks, where the maintainer of the DMA mapping helper code refused to accept Rust code. This gave rise to a flurry of arguments from many kernel contributors and even on social media, resulting in one of the contributors eventually quitting over loss of faith in the kernel development process.

China deploys prototype detectors to locate neutrinos in South China Sea

https://interestingengineering.com/science/china-advances-underwater-neutrino-research

Chinese scientists have deployed prototype detectors in the South China Sea to explore building a large underwater observatory to detect neutrinos, tiny particles from space.

Last month, equipment including sensitive detector units and an LED light source for calibration was deployed at a depth of 1,600 meters (5,250 feet) using the submersible Shenhai Yongshi, or Deep-Sea Warrior, according to the Institute of High Energy Physics (IHEP) in Beijing.

Surprisingly, the black hole driving this colossal jet is modest by quasar standards, weighing 450 million times the mass of the sun. This discovery challenges long-held assumptions about the conditions required for such powerful jets to form in the early universe.

Hundreds more people were expected to leave Greece’s Santorini island on Wednesday as tremors shook the popular summer tourist destination for a sixth day.

About 10,000 people have left on ferries and planes in recent days as hundreds of small quakes were registered in the surrounding sea, shaking buildings, kicking up dust on the island’s rocky cliffs, and raising fears of a major earthquake.

Превърнали сме се в същества, които ядат, серат и мразят себе си и околните. Това е единствената емоция, която ври в нас. В обществото ни крещи тоталната липса на мотивация, воля, други емоции и интерес към стимулите от заобикалящата ни среда Омразна Апатия!

Дали можем да променим това чрез Театър?

За да разберем това, Ви каним на премиерата на постановката "Системна Грршшка 2052" със специалното участие на Красимир Кънчев - "Крас" от група "Млък".

The Zenfone 12 Ultra is another big phone the US won’t get

https://www.theverge.com/news/605968/asus-zenfone-12-ultra-price-specs

As expected, the 12 Ultra is a de-gamer-ified ROG Phone 9 Pro with a big screen, a Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset, and a unique gimbal-like stabilizer in the main camera. It’s the same formula Asus followed with the Zenfone 11 Ultra, which was a fine device but failed to stand out in a sea of other big Android phones. Now, this edition isn’t even making landfall on our shores.

A new cyberattack technique has emerged, enabling attackers to bypass Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) systems while operating under a low-privileged standard user account.

Traditionally, EDR evasion requires elevated privileges, such as administrative or system-level access.
