It didn't say in the article who the previous five were, so I looked it up:

  • Belgium (2016)
  • Austria (2020)
  • Sweden (2020)
  • Portugal (2021)
  • United Kingdom (2024)
  • Ireland (2025)

That's using the source quoted in the article.

Another source has a longer list:

  • Belarus (2015)
  • Belgium (2016)
  • Austria (2020)
  • Sweden (2020)
  • Portugal (2021)
  • UK (2024)
  • Slovakia (2024)
  • (Ireland would be here if/when updated for 2025)

I can see it, btw. I'm using Voyager on Android and see a spool of blue cable.

Some of this is paving the cowpath - the animated PNG stuff is 20 years old and e.g. Firefox has had support since March 2007.

APNG is what they're using in v3, so all many libraries need to do* is update that code for HDR.

* surely that's easy, right?

FYI, you've added a link where the label is the URL and the actual link is empty. You can fix this by removing the [ and ]() around the link. If the link is there as plain text, it gets a hyperlink automatically: https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2025/07/pay-up-or-stop-scraping-cloudflare-program-charges-bots-for-each-crawl/

I can save you a click by saying it's a Discord bot that notifies when people join the voice chat, but it's a nice read and not too long.

It seems reasonable given that ~~space~~ the atmosphere is big. Really big. You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mindbogglingly big it is.

I only found that out today when I was searching for the above image and there were these orange packs in the results.

Walkers Worcester sauce crisps

Can't believe they discontinued the best flavour.

I thought that /dev/shm was strictly for shm_open() but it seems that all that does is open a file in /dev/shm anyway.

 

sync-on-luma is obsessed with Akira-style diagonal freight lifts and has made a video about their appearance in computer games. No sponsors or anything, just an unnecessarily deep dive into his favourite examples.

“Bibi Netanyahu’s trial should be CANCELLED, IMMEDIATELY, or a Pardon given to a Great Hero, who has done so much for the State,” Trump continued.

If he hasn't done anything wrong, why does he need a pardon?

Ah, Randall is alive! I kept thinking my bot had broken as it's so rare for him to miss an upload.

Here’s a nice little distraction from your workday: Head to Google, type in any made-up phrase, add the word “meaning,” and search. Behold! Google’s AI Overviews will not only confirm that your gibberish is a real saying, it will also tell you what it means and how it was derived.

This is genuinely fun, and you can find lots of examples on social media. In the world of AI Overviews, “a loose dog won't surf” is “a playful way of saying that something is not likely to happen or that something is not going to work out.” The invented phrase “wired is as wired does” is an idiom that means “someone's behavior or characteristics are a direct result of their inherent nature or ‘wiring,’ much like a computer's function is determined by its physical connections.”

It all sounds perfectly plausible, delivered with unwavering confidence. Google even provides reference links in some cases, giving the response an added sheen of authority. It’s also wrong, at least in the sense that the overview creates the impression that these are common phrases and not a bunch of random words thrown together. And while it’s silly that AI Overviews thinks “never throw a poodle at a pig” is a proverb with a biblical derivation, it’s also a tidy encapsulation of where generative AI still falls short.

AI summary

The webpage discusses leaked documents revealing the capabilities of Graykey, a phone unlocking and forensics tool utilized by law enforcement globally. According to the documents obtained by 404 Media, Graykey can retrieve only partial data from modern iPhones running iOS 18 and iOS 18.0.1. There is no information on its functionality with the recently released iOS 18.1. This leak is significant for Grayshift, the company behind Graykey, especially since it has been acquired by Magnet Forensics, another player in the digital forensics field. Unlike its competitor Cellebrite, which has experienced similar leaks, this is the first detailed disclosure of the specific phones Graykey can and cannot access. The documents also provide insights into Graykey's capabilities with Android devices. Overall, this situation highlights the ongoing struggle between forensics tools and phone manufacturers like Apple and Google. The information indicates a complex interplay in the evolving landscape of mobile device security and law enforcement access.
