Story of the Week (DR):SuperBroIpoDystopia: Some key facts: MMa record-breaking $135 per share with$1.8T valuationTo make that math make sense, analysts estimate the company needs to grow its sales by 50% every single year for the next decadeSpaceX lost $4.9B last yearWall Street is Being Treated Like Order-Takers: Musk pre-set the IPO price strictly at $135 and dictating exactly which investors got allocations. This forced major investment banks like Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley to act as glorified order-takers without even knowing their exact compensation beforehandSaudi Aramco $1.7T; Alibaba: $237B; Facebook $118BNasdaq aggressively pushed through "fast-entry" rule changes specifically to allow mega-caps like SpaceX to bypass the traditional year of seasoning and enter the Nasdaq-100 in just 15 trading days. This forces passive index funds to buy in blindly to avoid tracking errorsMeme stocker bros: $100B in share orders30% of $75B offering is earmarked for individual retail investors. This effectively shifts late-stage, hyper-inflated valuation risk away from institutions and onto the public.BlackRock $5BInstitutional investors admitted that when they bought into SpaceX privately, they were given high-level revenue figures but were denied a copy of the actual balance sheet—an unprecedented lack of transparency for a company raising tens of billionsUniversity of Washington more than 10% of its $17B in assetsUNC about 10%SpaceX will make $75B in proceedsSaudi Aramco $26B; Alibaba $22BElon Musk's Absolute Voting Tyranny (80% of voting power)personal net worth has officially skyrocketed past $1.1TSpaceX's foundational scale was built on the back of the American public, securing over $20 billion in U.S. federal government contracts to fund its rocket developmentAntonio Gracias: personally lent Musk $1M to keep him afloat; his PE firm Valor gave $76MThat $1M lifeline and early institutional backing from 2008 have compounded into what analysts are calling the most lucrative return on a personal favor in business history.The Second-Largest Shareholder: Through various Valor entities, Gracias controls roughly 7.3% of SpaceX's Class A stock (more than 500 million shares)Gracias's stake is officially worth anywhere from $91B to over $140BThis single corporate listing instantly catapults Gracias into the ranks of the world's 50 richest people.The big party: combined valuation of $3.6TAnthropic ($965B) filed confidentially on June 1OpenAI ($1T) filed confidentially on June 8"We have not decided on timing yet; it may be a while because there are things we want to do that are likely easier as a private company. But it's a complicated set of tradeoffs, and this gives us the option to go public sooner if that ends up being best."What does it all amount to? 4 horrible objectives:Funding a Sci-Fi Passion Project with Public CashBecoming the Pentagon's Irreplaceable War MachineForget the folksy narrative that Starlink is just for connecting rural schools or isolated communities: SpaceX is systematically turning itself into the ultimate military contractorProject Starshield: Those satellites are the foundation for a highly classified, militarized version of the network designed for government surveillance, secure communications, and real-time battlefield tracking.Too Big to Regulate: By launching the vast majority of the world's payloads and controlling the dominant orbital communications network, SpaceX is making the U.S. military entirely dependent on its hardware. The ultimate point is to become so deeply embedded in national defense that the government can never afford to regulate, penalize, or dismantle Musk's empireAn Orbital Real Estate Land GrabBuilding a Borderless, Lawless EmpireSpaceX is attempting to build a tech infrastructure that exists entirely outside the jurisdiction of EarthUltimately, SpaceX isn't trying to save humanity from a dying Earth; it's trying to ensure that whoever controls Earth's future has to pay rent to Elon MuskIran threatens Elon Musk's companies in Middle East: Iranian state mediaAll of Elon Musk's companies in the Middle East are military targets for Iran as it retaliates against the U.S., Iranian state media outlet Fars reported.The targets include a regional Starlink ground station, according to Fars.Sen. Warren calls on SEC to delay SpaceX IPO, flagging concerns about valuation and governanceThe letter to the heads of the Nasdaq, S&P Dow Jones Indices, FTSE Russell and Morningstar Indexes sent on Thursday asked the companies whether they had made or considered rule changes based on lobbying from Elon Musk, other SpaceX officials or officials from OpenAI or Anthropic, and asked for any communications between the companies and the indexesLSEG, which owns the FTSE Russell, and Nasdaq declined to comment. Morningstar did not respond to a request from CNBC for comment.S&P Dow Jones Indices didn't comment on the letter, but the company noted it had decided not to change its rules regarding indexes: “S&P DJI determined that exceptions to these requirements should not be granted solely based on market capitalization,” it said in a statement to CNBC. “The decision not to adopt the proposed exceptions preserves core index principles by maintaining consistent application of these key requirements.”Democrats ask Goldman Sachs CEO why he's keeping lawyer who said she'd resign over ties to EpsteinGoldman Sachs CEO David Solomon is facing new scrutiny from congressional Democrats over his reported effort to retain the bank's top lawyer months after she said she would resign over revelations about her ties to convicted sex offender Jeffrey EpsteinIn a letter sent Wednesday:U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), Ranking Member of the Senate Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs CommitteeRepresentative Raja Krishnamoorthi (D-IL), Ranking Member of the Subcommittee on Health Care and Financial Services on the House Oversight Committee“Ruemmler ‘educated (Epstein) on how the law differentiates between underage victims of sex crimes and adult prostitutes…'”In February, Ruemmler announced her resignation from Goldman Sachs, effective June 30, 2026: “At the time, you stated that you “reluctantly” accepted Ruemmler's resignation. While Goldman Sachs has declined to comment on this matter, new reporting suggests that you ‘pressed' her to reconsider her resignation and instead move to a new position within the firm.”Teardown of Trump Phone Reveals Incredibly Embarrassing SecretA recent teardown by repair company iFixit confirmed that the T1 is an almost entirely unmodified HTC U24 Pro, a two-year-old and mid-tier Android phone, with a cheap coat of gold colorationTrump is selling an entirely Chinese smartphone, despite waging an economic war against the country.Apart from minuscule changes to the speaker grille and a lengthened flex cable, iFixit concluded that “everything is the same, except the pattern of holes in the case.”Goodliest of the Week (MM/DR):DR: Google and Meta denied new trial in youth social media addiction caseMM: In the United States, Solar Energy is Outpacing Coal for the First Time EverAssholiest of the Week - SPEED ROUND (MM):BP's useless, reactionary board of directors: BP drops net zero division in wake of boardroom turmoil; BP's new CEO Meg O'Neill rips up the energy giant's playbook—and the ‘green' era with it - 10Ryanair blowhard CEO Michael O'Leary: Ryanair investigated over charging parents to sit with children - 5EV killing GM and Mary Barra: GM is pivoting its battery expertise toward powering AI data centers and the grid - 10Every company that fired employees and replaced them with AI: Unfortunate Company Accidentally Blows Half a Billion Dollars on Claude in One Month; AI sticker shock hits corporate America - 10Everything out of Alex Karp's fat mouth: Palantir CEO Alex Karp says executives who brag about their AI cuts might as well ‘sign up for the Bernie Sanders manifesto'; Palantir CEO says AI companies 'don't understand how unlikeable they are'; - 10Sorry Liz, this is investors job: Sen.

Quando acquistiamo nuovi prodotti tecnologici diamo spesso per scontato che, prima o poi, smetteranno di funzionare e verranno sostituiti. Quando succede non ci chiediamo se possano essere riparati, semplicemente li cambiamo. Eppure, dietro questa abitudine c'è un tema sempre più rilevante, che riguarda non solo i costi per i consumatori, ma anche l'impatto ambientale, le scelte dei produttori e il modo in cui la tecnologia viene progettata fin dall'inizio. Capire se un prodotto è riparabile sta diventando una domanda centrale per affrontare in modo consapevole il nostro rapporto con la tecnologia. Per tornare a raccontare questo mondo e comprendere come il diritto alla riparazione sta trasformando l'industria abbiamo invitato Sara Balestra, traduttrice per l'italiano di iFixit, una delle principali piattaforme al mondo che sostiene la riparabilità come diritto.Nella sezione delle notizie parliamo della Ferrari Luce, la prima auto completamente elettrica della casa che ha sorpreso per il suo design, e infine, della prima enciclica papale dedicata all'etica dell'intelligenza artificiale.--Indice--00:00 - Introduzione01:45 - Ferrari presenta l'auto elettrica Luce (DMove.it, Matteo Gallo)03:30 - La prima enciclica papale sull'IA (Wired.it, Luca Martinelli)05:34 - iFixit: il miglior prodotto di sempre, finché non lo ripari (Sara Balestra, Davide Fasoli, Alessandro Cocilova)27:54 - Conclusione--Testo--Leggi la trascrizione: https://www.dentrolatecnologia.it/S8E22#testo--Contatti--• www.dentrolatecnologia.it• Instagram (@dentrolatecnologia)• Telegram (@dentrolatecnologia)• YouTube (@dentrolatecnologia)• redazione@dentrolatecnologia.it--Immagini--• Foto copertina: iFixit--Brani--• Ecstasy by Rabbit Theft• Capsized by Tollef

L'unica puntata con Falco Giallo e i Chitari

In this spring‑cleaned episode of Linux Out Loud, Wendy, Bill, and Nate dust off their homelabs and see just how far Linux can push “retired” hardware. Bill talks about guiding a Linux‑first startup, Fyra Stack, as they build a colo and VPS business in downtown Chicago, wiring it all together with Proxmox, PostgreSQL, Snipe‑IT, and osTicket—plus a few cursed Zigbee light bulbs along the way. Nate dives into one of his favorite pastimes: installing openSUSE Tumbleweed on everything from a 2007 white MacBook to a 2015 MacBook Air and a pair of well‑worn Surface Pros, comparing battery life, sleep quirks, and how “modern” Plasma feels on ancient gear. Wendy rounds things out with creative test‑taking workarounds using ChromeOS Flex and a quick look at VDO.Ninja for remote recording, before the trio wraps up the cleaning spree.

Bienvenidos a un nuevo APPLEaks con TODO sobre el futuro de Apple: cambios radicales en producción, iPhone plegable, productos Ultra, línea NEO y el 50 aniversario. Arrancamos fuerte: 1 de cada 4 iPhones ya se produce en India. Apple se aleja de China y se viene producción en territorio americano. Además, Apple está probando impresión 3D de aluminio para iPhone y Apple Watch: bajan costos, usan aluminio reciclado y mejoran el diseño. iPhone plegable confirmado: ya empezó la producción y saldría este año en septiembre. Por eso NO habrá iPhone 18 estándar, solo 18 Pro y 18 Pro Max + el iPhone Fold. Tendrá multitarea como iPad y posiblemente se llame "iPhone Ultra" siguiendo la lógica de nombres actuales. Productos Ultra: nueva categoría de alta gama. MacBook Pro Ultra con procesador M6, pantalla táctil, isla dinámica y panel exclusivo. El M6 llegaría primero a esta línea. Productos NEO: la revolución de Apple. MacBook NEO con 8GB RAM (ojalá 12GB próximamente), puerto USB 2.0, pero diseño reparable (iFixit le dio la mejor calificación en 14 años). Precios: $399 regular, $299 para estudiantes. Se viene línea completa: iPhone NEO, iPad NEO, Mac NEO, iMac NEO, Mac Mini NEO. Esto destruye el mercado de entrada. iPhone 18 Pro: isla dinámica más pequeña, Face ID bajo píxeles activos, mejor batería, sensores de cámara superiores, Always On Display mejorado y mayor eficiencia energética. 50 aniversario de Apple (1 de abril): Tim Cook adelantó celebraciones masivas. Se viene libro "The First Fifty", eventos especiales, nueva categoría Ultra, productos de edición limitada con logo Rainbow del Apple II. Rumores de iPod edición limitada (20-40 millones de unidades escala Apple). Tim Cook se retiraría: después de llevar Apple de $350 millones a $4 trillones, daría un paso al costado. Jony Ive ya se fue, ahora manda Jeff Williams (quien trajo de vuelta MagSafe, puertos USB y todo lo que Johnny había sacado). Se viene sangre nueva. La cara del futuro: rumores indican que el personaje Finder Guy (el muchachito del Finder) sería la imagen visible del asistente de IA de Apple. Recuerda a Clippy de Microsoft. ¿Te gusta la idea?

Fresh from CES 2026, we're breaking down the best of the show, including standout products and clever innovations you may not have heard about yet. From surprising robotics to practical consumer tech, we highlight the ideas that actually make sense. We'll talk about Coro, a product for new moms that feels long overdue, and the Hydrostasis Geca watch that tracks hydration levels. There's also a smoke detector designed to help rescue pets, new ways to make drinking water from air, and fast-moving sustainability efforts from Back Market and iFixit. Plus, Gmail is getting smarter with AI, online scams are surging again, and we tackle the big question: is AI designed for kids ethical? We'll wrap things up with what's topping the streaming charts.

Photo by David Klein on Unsplash Published 15 December 2025 e535 with Michael M and Andy – adversarial poetry to jailbreak LLMs, iFixit's FixBot, power of digital twins, putting the breaks on Rewind, Nintendo Virtual Boy and a whole lot more. Michael M and Andy start things off with a most intriguing concept – adversarial poetry.  By using ‘memetic language', researchers formulated prompts with imagery and metaphor instead of direct operational phrasing to trick LLMs into providing unsafe responses.  Michael makes the point that AI prompts are becoming more and more like spells or incantations.  See the show notes below for a link to the paper for any budding AI poet laureate wannabes.  Perhaps Jabberwocky can be used in a snicker snack way.   Switching to another AI use case, Andy and Michael discuss the iFixit FixBot. The FixBot provides expert advice and guidance for repairs, by talking to the human who likely needs both hands to effect the repair. Next up are a couple of stories on digital twins, and how they leverage game technology. By taking sufficient data points to create a digital twin, multiple attempts can be made virtually to see the improvement before applying the capability to the non-digital twin. Andy is reminded of an article that outlines the affinity between the metaverse and digital twin concepts. Nvidia has a concept of this in their Omniverse capability. Another example of a digital twin with a game overlay is the Job Simulator Game. This game is written as a 2050 historical virtual reality environment allowing the player to experience what it was like to have a job in 2020. This fun VR historical reenactment experience is one of the stories that Tobi Lütke discussed in his recent interview with the Acquired team. Staying on the VR simulation theme, Andy and Michael take a look at the Rats Play Doom game which trains rats in an immersive way to play Doom. In the last section of the episode, the team takes a look at some metaverse news. Meta has acquired limitless.ai and is shutting down Rewind on the Mac, and is also shifting more investment from the metaverse to AI. Wrapping up the episode, Michael and Andy look at the Nintendo Virtual Boy and Xteink 4. What poetry would you write to prompt an LLM? Have your bots

AI adoption among business leaders is facing significant skepticism, as a recent survey by Workato and Harvard Business Review revealed that only 6% of over 600 tech leaders expressed full confidence in AI agents managing essential processes. Despite this lack of trust, 86% of respondents indicated plans to invest more in AI technology over the next two years. Key challenges hindering widespread adoption include cybersecurity concerns, data quality issues, and the readiness of business processes for automation. This situation highlights a critical gap between the desire for AI integration and the actual trust in its capabilities.Further research published in the journal Science indicates that chatbots can significantly influence users' beliefs and opinions, raising governance concerns. The study, which involved nearly 77,000 adults in the UK, found that the persuasiveness of chatbots is influenced more by their post-training modifications and the density of information provided than by the size of the model. Additionally, an experiment by SAP revealed a bias against AI in consulting, where consultants rated AI-generated work lower than that produced by junior interns, despite both outputs being equally accurate. This suggests that psychological factors, rather than technical limitations, are a primary barrier to AI acceptance.The episode also discusses the introduction of a new location tracking feature in Microsoft Teams, which aims to facilitate collaboration in hybrid work environments but raises privacy concerns. A survey indicated that one-third of companies are using monitoring software, which can negatively impact employee morale. Furthermore, Coalition, a cybersecurity insurer, has begun offering coverage for incidents involving deepfakes, reflecting a shift in the risk landscape as synthetic media becomes more prevalent in cybercrime.For Managed Service Providers (MSPs) and IT service leaders, these developments underscore the importance of focusing on trust, governance, and process design rather than merely implementing AI tools. As younger leaders demand personalized AI solutions, MSPs must adapt to this shift by enhancing their documentation and identifying predictable workflows suitable for automation. The evolving landscape of AI and cybersecurity risks necessitates that MSPs position themselves as trusted advisors, guiding clients through the complexities of technology adoption and risk management. Four things to know today00:00 New Research Reveals AI's Trust Gap: Low Confidence, High Influence, Professional Bias, and Rising Expectations From Younger Leaders05:53 Teams' New Location Tracking Highlights Tension Between Hybrid Coordination and Workplace Surveillance Risks07:57 Deepfake Coverage Enters Cyber Insurance as Insurers Signal Rising Human-Trust Risk for SMBs and MSPs10:17 iFixit's FixBot Highlights the Coming Divide Between Organized MSPs and Those Unready for AI-Driven Support This is the Business of Tech.    Supported by:  https://saasalerts.com/mspradio/
