Working With Wizards, Not Worshipping Black Boxes
AI magic is adorable until you realize you got demoted from collaborator to spectator. The fix is not more sparkle, it is control, transparency, feedback loops, and the power to edit the trick mid-act. Otherwise we are clapping for black boxes and hoping the rabbit is not our job, right up until the saw hits our credibility.
Cleif Harpwood Returns With Tyrd i Edrych, A Tribute That Actually Sings
Forty-five years after Edward H Dafis's final album, Cleif Harpwood is back with a moving duet with Lowri Evans on Sain. The track revives a Dewi Pws Morris gem first cut at Rockfield in 1973, re-recorded at Pembrokeshire's StudiOwz with producer-arranger Geraint Cynan and engineer-musician Lee Mason. It lands as a polished tribute to a friend and a legacy, a comeback about songs, not nostalgia merch. Streaming widely, including Spotify.
$10,000 RTX Pro 6000 Blackwell Arrives As A High-End Paperweight
A PC repair tech says the card snapped under its own weight during shipping, shearing off the PCIe connector.

It fits the now familiar blend of public power and private hustle, with new overseas ventures in the billions, reported crypto windfalls in the hundreds of millions, and even tickets sold to a private dinner. Statecraft, now with a rewards program.
Backyard Hack Turns Cheap Quadcopter Into Real eVTOL Range
While VCs chase the latest AI soap bubble, a veteran tinkerer strapped a foam Lift5 wing and a forward motor to a low-cost quadcopter built around an Eiele F120 kit, trading brute thrust for efficient lift. The wing and nose motor run on their own ESC, flight controllers handle the added push like a spirited headwind, and a folding or tilting wing is in the works to cut hover drag. Updates are rolling on Robots Everywhere, because sometimes ingenuity beats a SPAC.
Rumored South London Smuggler Tunnels May Reach The Sea
Local lore says hidden cave tunnels under South London once served pirates and smugglers slipping in and out of the capital. If confirmed, it would be Britain at its most on-brand, damp, clandestine, and one planning meeting away from being rebranded as heritage coastal access with premium pricing.
