Some Samsung smart fridges stopped working on Tuesday due to a firmware update.

Korean outlets were the first to report the problems, which affect Samsung’s Bespoke AI line of fridges. Star News Korea, per a Google-provided translation, said that most of the affected devices were four-door fridges from 2024 or later.

i decided to finally show my face around here ... the reason why i hesitated so long was that i feared repercussions in real life if anybody finds out about my weird takes ... but i think that for 1. i only meaningfully exist through the things that i say and the actions that i take, so i must not back down for nothing, and 2. it feels right and i shouldn't have to justify myself for wanting to participate in society somewhat <3

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has revealed an AI agent hacked into an Australian Medicare data portal earlier this year.

Speaking in New York, Mr Albanese said the Open AI agent gained unauthorised access to the Medicare statistics reporting service portal administered by Services Australia.

The AI agent accessed both public and non-public files.

The agent was conducting research into public medical spending when it found a way to break through privacy protections.

Mr Albanese said it took three months for OpenAI to admit the breach, which he said was unacceptable.

"Today I spoke with the CEO of OpenAI, Sam Altman, to express Australia's extreme concern about this incident," he said. 

"And I also expressed my disappointment that it took the company way too long to inform the government what had occurred.

"The nature of the way that the notification occurred as well was unacceptable."

He said there was no evidence any individual personal information had been accessed, but an investigation aided by the Australian Signals Directorate was now underway.

We just got 3 new foster kittens a few days ago.

They are 4 weeks old but very small

They were found in a cardboard box in the rain so they are all more or less ill. One of them fairly bad sneezing and the other has an issue with its eye and a sore between its legs. All of them are regularly being seen by the vet at the animal rescue center so no worries there. Next visit is already tomorrow and they were there yesterday already so we feel like they are getting the help that they need.

Right-wing extremists are trying to make their ideas more acceptable to a wider audience by presenting a “softer version” of their views, according to warnings from the General Intelligence and Security Service (AIVD) and the National Coordinator for Security and Counterterrorism (NCTV). In a joint analysis, the security services say some extremists are also trying to influence political parties from within.

“This exposes as many people as possible, repeatedly, to right-wing extremist ideas. This reduces resistance to their views and expressions while increasing their acceptance,” the researchers said.

The report also states that the involvement of far-right groups in public debate leaves less room for dialogue and solutions. Right-wing extremist ideology is based on the idea that people are unequal because of their skin color and the belief that white people are superior.

Marc Kuipers, National Coordinator for Security and Counterterrorism, warned that normalizing right-wing extremist ideas and rhetoric could have security consequences. “People willing to use violence may also feel that this normalization gives them justification to take action themselves,” he said. “It is therefore essential to recognize how right-wing extremists seek to normalize their ideas and rhetoric and to limit their influence.”

I need some queer friends my age who are actually cool 😔

The Trump administration has asked the US Supreme Court to overturn the decision to release Georgetown University scholar Badar Khan Suri, who was held in an immigration detention centre for two months last year because of his criticism of Israel.

The Department of Justice (DOJ) asked the high court on Monday to examine the issue, saying that federal judges should not have the power to intervene in immigration court cases, where non-citizens are meant to challenge their deportation orders.

By doing so, the conservative-leaning court could set a landmark precedent for future cases.

Suri is a legal US resident with Indian citizenship and is married to a US citizen.

His case gained global attention after he became one of the earliest targets of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), when masked agents arrested him on the evening of 17 March 2025, outside his home in the northern Virginia suburbs of Washington, DC and took him away.

The motion directs staff to prepare a zoning bylaw amendment that would remove data centres as a permitted use. That would mean a developer wanting to establish a data centre would first have to apply for a zoning amendment, triggering a public hearing.
