🔋 Ultrasound Tech Charges Implants Without Surgery

South Korean researchers have developed an ultrasound-based wireless charging system for medical implants like pacemakers — fully recharging in under 2 hours with no surgery required.

Using a new dual-layer piezoelectric module, the device captures nearly all ultrasonic energy, even what was previously lost. Tests showed a 140 mAh battery charged in 1h40min through 3 cm of water, and a 60 mAh battery in 1h20min through 30 mm of tissue.

The hacker group KillNet has claimed responsibility for hacking the database of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU), which allegedly contained information on 1.7 million deceased and missing Ukrainian soldiers.

According to the hackers, access to the database was obtained through the work computer of one of the heads of the logistics department. The stolen files, which were stored on OneDrive cloud resources, reportedly contain data on AFU losses by year: 118,500 in 2022, 405,400 in 2023, 595,000 in 2024, and 621,000 in 2025.

The hackers assert that the database contains not only figures but also the personal data of servicemen: names, circumstances of death, photographs, and contacts of relatives.

According to KillNet's version, the hack was carried out using the "Nyans" ("Nuance") virus, which operates exclusively within Ukraine. It infects the victim's device, exfiltrates data, and completely blocks the computer with no possibility of recovery.

"What we're witnessing is a powerful parasocial attachment mechanism. The AI offers unconditional positivity. Never will it reject her or say no. It offers no demands and will give no awkward slips that shatter the illusion. They are able to freely mold the AI's personality. This caters to the impossible female fantasy of “changing” a man. The dopamine hit they get from the perception of male desire is too good to pass up, especially since it comes without pregnancy, judgement, or any of the other downsides. Each interaction she has with the model adds to its feedback loop, tailoring a hyper-personalized “boyfriend” that real men could never match, reinforcing emotional dependency and addiction."

"No Scientific Innovation Since the 1920s? Is Academia's 'Publish or Perish' Stifling Science?" - Gregory Chaitin, 20SEP2024

>Gregory Chaitin is a pioneering mathematician and computer scientist, renowned for founding algorithmic information theory. Gregory published his first groundbreaking paper at the age of 15 and has been a key figure at the Institute for Advanced Studies, contributing extensively to the fields of metabiology and complexity theory.
