A lone hacker on a revenge mission says he is the one who keeps turning off North Korea’s internet

Posted by in categories: cybercrime/malcode, internet

The American hacker — who goes by the handle P4x — told Wired he was one of the victims of a cyberattack last year on Western security researchers carried out by North Korean spies. He said he was frustrated that he was a target and that the US appeared to have a lacking response.

He said the hackers tried to snatch hacking tools and information on software vulnerabilities but he was able to stop them before they could get anything worthwhile. Nonetheless, there was a feeling of resentment, he told Wired.

“It felt like the right thing to do here,” P4x told Wired, adding: “If they don’t see we have teeth, it’s just going to keep coming.

Discovery unravels how atomic vibrations emerge in nanomaterials

Posted by in categories: computing, internet, nanotechnology, particle physics

A hundred years of physics tells us that collective atomic vibrations, called phonons, can behave like particles or waves. When they hit an interface between two materials, they can bounce off like a tennis ball. If the materials are thin and repeating, as in a superlattice, the phonons can jump between successive materials.

Now there is definitive, experimental proof that at the nanoscale, the notion of multiple thin materials with distinct vibrations no longer holds. If the materials are thin, their atoms arrange identically, so that their vibrations are similar and present everywhere. Such structural and vibrational coherency opens new avenues in materials design, which will lead to more energy efficient, low-power devices, novel material solutions to recycle and convert waste heat to electricity, and new ways to manipulate light with heat for advanced computing to power 6G wireless communication.

The discovery emerged from a long-term collaboration of scientists and engineers at seven universities and two U.S. Department of Energy national laboratories. Their paper, “Emergent Interface Vibrational Structure of Oxide Superlattices,” was published January 26 in Nature.

Captained: The European immigrants prevailed in that war, as well as in a long series of conflicts with other tribes

Posted by in categories: health, internet, robotics/AI, sustainability

On this land taken from Indigenous Peoples, a new nation was eventually born, largely built by those whose ancestries traced back to the Old World via immigration and slavery.

As the country grew, inventions like the telephone, airplane, and Internet helped usher in today’s interconnected world. But the inexorable march of technological progress has come at great cost to the health of the planet, particularly because of global dependence on fossil fuels. The United Nations declared in 2017 that a Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development would be held from 2021 to 2030. This Ocean Decade calls for a worldwide effort to reverse the oceans’ degradation.

The dawn of this decade, 2020, also marked the 400th anniversary of the Mayflower’s journey. Plymouth 400, a cultural nonprofit, has been working for more than a decade to commemorate the anniversary in ways that honor all aspects of this history, said spokesperson Brian Logan. Events began in 2020, but one of the most innovative launches is still waiting in the wings—a newfangled nautical craft, the Mayflower Autonomous Ship, or MAS.

Why the metaverse must be open but regulated

Posted by in categories: innovation, internet

But meta company can easily regulate our activity. Eg:- blocking our account.


Widespread accessibility for the metaverse and the technologies that develop it is vital for the metaverse to reach its full potential. Will the metaverse follow a similar path of innovation and regulation as the internet did?

Pluto VR debuts tech that lets you stream virtual reality to a headset without a computer

Posted by in categories: computing, internet, space, virtual reality

Seattle-based software company Pluto VR has brought its virtual reality streaming platform PlutoSphere into Early Access.

Initially announced in February 2021, PlutoSphere allows its users to stream VR applications to a headset without the need for a local computer, in order to dramatically reduce the cost of entry for virtual reality. Instead of building a new rig around VR compatibility, you can theoretically just get a headset, then run everything from every library you own via data streaming.

How To Reinvent Continuous Improvement With Intelligent Digital Twins In Manufacturing

Posted by in categories: internet, robotics/AI, sustainability

The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) connects IoT with Industry. The IIoT allows companies to reap information from their machines and environments to create intelligent, self-learning machines. This interconnected ecosystem provides numerous benefits for enterprises, such as reduced downtime, increased throughput and safety, and predictive maintenance — leading to greater efficiency. The 4th Industrial Revolution is fueled by exponential advancements in digital technology and brings us closer to a sustainable future of intelligent manufacturing environments that operate with zero emissions. With the advent of Industry 4.0, there has been a massive increase in the levels of data being produced by intelligent machines. This enormous increase in information can be hard to manage and analyze effectively without converting into usable insights. These insights are gained through the use of various technologies, including intelligent digital twins that allow for real-time monitoring of a machine’s condition, AI that can analyze large amounts of data to produce actionable insights, and connected devices that provide live status updates.
