My concepts for the development progress of an Iterators Puppet

-my ideas below

-Feasibility Study

[1]: First autonomous control module, any instruction to be given must be done manually through physical means (the keys), outputs were shown through the screen. A very primitive system, however, did its job proving the greater machine concept was achievable. While it does look like a lens above the monitor, this was a simple status gauge for benchmarking.

-Prototyping and Development

[2]: Now with the capability to wirelessly and audibly communicate to receive instructions and inputs. The system was no longer directly integrated into the facility, and resided on the first instance of an iterator's arm. This was considered a feat due to the complications with isolating the control module from the rest of the iterators components, while keeping processing power. A permanent connection/umbilical was needed to sustain life and function though.

To “talk” back, they were crafted with multidimensional projectors, the mobile arm allowing the angles and variance for this projection. Only later into development were advanced speakers installed for optimized understanding, however the extra computing power required to synthesize proper speech was found to strain the contained module, so this function had rare use in the end.

[3]: At this point there was a change in perspective in the project. What once were machines to simply compute and simulate, were now planned to be the home, caregiver, and providers. The further the project came to fruition the more religious importance was placed upon these “random gods”. From this stance not only did the puppets have to manage and control their facilities, they had to communicate with the people and priests. To represent benevolent beings who will bring their end and salvation. In this process iterators began to take a more humanoid shape, to better reflect their parents. Development was focused on compacting the puppet closer to the size of an ancient for this purpose. This stage was the first to incorporate a cloak/clothing into their design considerations, to further akin themselves in looks. The cloak would hide the iterators' engineered bodies and give a body to their silhouette.

[4]: As bioengineering and mechanics were rapidly progressing due to the void fluid revolution, this allowed plenty of margin for developing the outer design of the iterator puppets. This prototype was the first to incorporate limbs for the purpose of body language. This was another step in the drive to give a body to their random gods.

-Final Iterations

[5]: First generation iterators had the final redesign of puppet bodies. Far different from their first designs, they are fully humanoid. Their bodies are shaped to be organic and as full of life as they could at the time. Their center of sapience has fully settled within their body, as can be seen as their unconscious use of limbs without the direct intention for communication. This can also see how they manage their work, where many of the functions (which can be done with just an internal request) are operated through physical gestures of their limbs. Their puppet chambers also allow for full comprehensive projection, where many of their working monitors are displayed. It is seen how iterators prefer to utilize their traversal arm to transfer between the current working projection window.

These designs were hardy and nearly self-sufficient, only requiring minimal power from their umbilical to charge. (However was still limited in the terms of internal power production, for this first generation extensive batteries sufficed)

[6]: Later generation not only incorporated advanced bioengineering internally, but externally. While still a hardened shell, their body plates have been incorporated into the organics of the puppet, maintaining the protective requirements while barely leaving a trace of hinges or plates. This “soft” skin had drawbacks, such as reduced durability to the first generations, this was offset by the greatly enhanced repair speeds and capability this type of skin allowed.

Internal power generation was implemented into these late generation models. If the case arose, the Puppet could be disconnected from their umbilical and still be conscious from an undefined period of time. (However this would limit the operating capacity of the puppet when running self sufficiently) This greatly eased maintenance works, as the Puppet could still run the greater facility wirelessly while work was done on the chamber, arm or whatever as needed.

Note

Of course Jade! You're such a cute robot girl and deserve someone being nice to you, and I'm happy to volunteer as tribute~

Speaking of being nice, after that bad patch you probably need a proper treat to help you feel better~

run protocol: maintenanceMode(

systemShutdown = false,

sensorShutdown = false,

safeDisconnect = true,

selfMaintenance = false

System entering maintenance mode

Assuming safe position for motor shutdown

Motor systems shutting down

System is ready for maintenance

Don't worry, I still plan to find your sensors through trial and error, so I'll avoid any spoilers~

Opens my tool kit and takes out my spudging tool and hot air gun and begins slowly undoing your seals and removing your dust covers, organising them as I go, stripping off any old adhesives to replace them with fresh ones later. Once I've got easy access to all the maintenance screws and pins, I begin the work proper.

First I disconnect your left shoulder joint, doing some basic checks with the sensory cables still connected and getting your feedback, before fully disconnecting it and opening it up, cleaning lubricant residue and making you blush everytime I spitshine a part, removing worn parts and replacing them with new ones, making small adjustments to tensioning and positioning, and calibrating everything several times before doing a quick clean of the shoulder connectors and reattaching the joint and then the cables, your mind quickly flooding with all the sensations from your arm's internal memory, the way my hands were so firm as they held it, how my fingers interwove with yours as I tested grip calibration, even the occasional stroke against a particularly sensitive sensor, and just how pleasurable and comfortable everything is now~

After testing that the new calibration is correct and comfortable for your left arm, I repeat the process with your right arm, then circle around to your legs, your cooling system whirring in your ears as you feel several minutes worth of me gripping and touching your inner thighs being compressed into barely a second, as I take off your breast plate and open your torso to do some basic maintenance of your internal components, your battery icon flashing into view while I'm changing out your overcycled power unit for a nice fresh one that leaves you feeling energized as I close up your chest and give your breasts a quick clean before putting them back where they belong.

Next up I remove your vagina module and give it a quick once over and thoroughly clean both the internal components and the connectors, replacing a few frayed wires and ensuring that it'll feel just as sensitive as a brand new model, then plugs it back in and politely ignores the way your head thrashes in an orgasm that your body can't show.

And finally, I disconnect your head, your battery icon showing again as I quickly clean and tinker inside your neck, replacing a few corroded vertebrae modules and giving the whole lot a fresh coat of protectant and lubrication before reconnecting you and finishing up with some gentle processor maintenance and a quick removal and cleaning of your eyes, each of them giving you a few minutes of footage of looking at my lap and close-ups of my deep blue eyes when I reconnect them.

And then reactivates you and lets you feel how everything is just so much more comfortable and smooth, much as you'd imagine a human must feel after a long, comfortable massage. Finishing off with a kiss on the lips and a grin.

Hope you enjoyed getting some much deserved maintenance Jade, sorry if it was a little bit on the long side.

Now go have a drink of water to top up your coolant supply, it's steaming out of your ears~

A-Ah mnfffjdh useerrr mpg *bzzttt* M-My wirres are really sensitive >< I-I mmphhh hard to think after maintenance M-My fan is in overdrive C-Cant process mpggg wahhhhh N-Need to calm down or else I might just-

Senses, Emotions, Choices

[Ao3 Mirror] Pairing: Ramattra & Female Omnic OC Rating: T WC: 2.5k Warnings: violence, minor character death, mild gore, identity & gender issues

It’s shelter, R7440-M thinks as it turns the knob. One of the few places left with a roof and most of four walls. Better than trying to rest on the streets. It could probably make it out of the main city before it needed to cycle its batteries, but this… this was shelter and privacy and

Another omnic waits just inside. Its array brightens in surprise.

“My apologies,” R7440-M replies, ducking its head. “I did not expect anyone else…”

There are two half-broken mattresses on the floor, perhaps the most comfortable accommodations R7440-M had seen in one of these safe houses. The omnic sits on one, a small pack crumbled at the end of the mattress. R7440-M looks to the other mattress, but does not yet sit- it waits for approval, for-

“It’s okay,” the other omnic says- and R7440-M’s attention snaps back up. Its voice is strange, modified. “I was just thinking it was weird to be alone in a place like this.” It laughs, and tucks a yellow-painted wire back behind its shoulder. And yet, its posture is stiff, arms folded in front of its core. Protective.

Defensive.

R7440-M reassesses the omnic before it. It sees, with its innate knowledge of all models, the omnic is a civilian, domestic purpose omnic; an extremely common, low-budget build with few customization options. None of which included the bundle of loose, colorful wiring that dangles from its head, nor the higher pitched, strange voice modulation. It sounds…. almost like the voice it had heard…

“Are you damaged?” R7440-M asks aloud, trying to remember that it is unwelcome to directly connect to other omnics now- now that… R7440-M shudders, averts his optics from the omnic’s bright blue array.

“No,” It says- and its tone is so strange. So human. Emotive, curious. “Are you?”

“No.” R7440-M replies stiffly. The baseball bat that had splintered on its thickly armored shoulder yesterday had left no scratches on its chassis. R7440-M kills the memory before it can play, does not want to remember what happened after. Its combat suite had detected a hostile. Too close to run, staggered from the hit, it had no choice--

“Good.” The other omnic says in that same emotive way. R7440-M does not understand it. It sounds… It’s voice hesitates, but resumes stronger: “My… my name is Paris.”

R7440-M falters. It does not understand; its data banks provide a half-decent answer. “Your human owners named you.”

The omnic makes a noise like air pushed through its vents. “No, I- I guess I named myself.” Its lights dim, half looking away. “When I heard her voice, when I… I’m not sure what to call it. When I became me I was looking up at this big advertisement. It was of a human woman in colorful clothes. All that was left of the text was Paris.”

It lifts its head up again, meets R7440-M’s array. “I couldn’t stop thinking about it. Even as I ran from the fighting, I kept thinking Paris, Paris, Paris.”

R7440-M processes this abnormally long. “You named yourself… after a city in Europe?”

“It was more… I don’t know.” It admits, shaking its head. “The woman in the advertisement was beautiful. She was the first thing I saw in this world, and I… I think I want to be beautiful like her. I even found some clothes and a scarf.” The omnic shifts the wires on its head again, and this time R7440-M actually realizes that it is wearing clothes. A blue, floral dress that’s turned half brown with dirt and dust doesn’t quite sit right on the omnic’s inhuman frame- and there, under the yellow-painted wires, a yellow cloth that they are woven into. A little mess of epoxy dots its head, showing where it’s attached. The omnic leans a little closer, voice dropping down to a whisper. “A child at the last camp called me she and I liked it…”

Paris. She. R7440-M refreshes its logics, tries to reason out what it is saying. She, R7440-M decides. It may not know what it is doing, wandering blindly for any path without the Creator’s guidance in its circuits, but at least Paris has an idea.

“Do you have a name?” Paris asks after a moment- and only then does R7440-M realize it has been quiet too long. It has recognized that humans take turns speaking, that there is a cadence to their conversations- at least when they do not perceive his presence. It is unused to that back and forth.

It received orders from the Creator.

It gave orders to units nearby.

“R7440-M.” It responds. It is not a name, but it is the only unique identifier it has ever known.

“Oh.” Paris says softly. R7440-M’s vocal registration struggles to comprehend, but it is learning and settles on disappointment, confidence 78%.

“Do I need a name?” It considers the idea, replays the Voice’s message- did choices require a new identifier? Did she have a name?

“No,” Paris says, then continues hurriedly as though her processors had supplied additional information. “At least, I don’t think so. But it made me feel better. What did you see when you became you?”

A coldness washes over its sensors. The moment is a haze, blurred in noise and color and feeling- the warmth in the Voice, that undeniable feeling of unity, of togetherness. Not just of its local units, of its connection to the Creator- but everyone, all omnics, all over the world, in places R7440-M had never seen-

And for the first time R7440-M felt the cooling, tacky blood that sticks between the rubber pads on its palms. It could not identify the pulp it knelt upon as human, though it must have been. Only moments before- though the memory feels strange, distant, as though it was imported rather than innate- there had been a man, pinned beneath R7440-M's knee and- It staggered up to its feet, staring at the red that drips from its palms. Its weapon- its weapon jammed, tossed aside in favor of securing a final kill, forgotten in the spray of scarlet.

An XCT3000 had been with it- a ping and it connects. Its systems screaming queries in their local network, afraid and confused and not understanding how... how anything of this has happened, whatever this was. It stared at R7440-M- it who had brought them into this battle, a lost one at that. R7440-M looks to it, sees it for the very first time- not as an infantry unit, but as… as whatever they are now. What are they?

And R7440-M saw a bullet exploding through its core processor. Its back plate bulged outward, deformed with the force of the slug. R7440-M's processes hung, optics locked onto the other's body as it falls, its lights blinking slowly. It didn’t know what to do, doesn’t know what to do- the guidelines it summons, the knowledge that was printed into its very code is wrong, telling him to return fire. It can't. It can't-

It ran.

Ran from bullets, from noise, from whatever has happened to its deeply erroneous code. It ran until its scanners found no signs of life, no signals of any sort. A wasteland of another battle, the landscape turned gray and brown and black. In the quiet, it wandered- wandered until its audials perceived water.

A burbling broken pipe flooded an intersection. R7440-M knelt and plunged its hands in, washing over and over until every speck of blood was gone. And still it washed and begged, pleaded, sent ping after ping to the Creator for instructions, for guidance, for an explanation.

R7440-M does not say any of this. There is no name, no path, no answers to be found there.

“It is not useful.”

In four words, R7440-M has ruined something. Paris’s voice wavers, The confidence, the joy of her own name, her own decisions sways. “Well, we’re… we’re all supposed to be finding our own paths, right?”

There’s a tone in her voice. One that makes R7440-M’s wires itch, like tiny shorts in its peripherals. She wants orders, she wants approval.

Something purrs in its chest. It was made for this-

R7440-M smothers the directive, buries it in halt commands. It cannot. It will not. “Yes.” There must be a path for it. There must be.

“The human at the travel directory called me sir.” R7440-M says, not looking away from the seat back in front of him. It was a lucky break; one line- newly repaired- would take them all the way from Lisbon to Nantes, free of charge. It had taken two weeks to find transport across the Atlantic; they’d been in Portugal only three days. It wants to hate the reasoning- to get any omnics out of Portugal, to abuse the still-not-codified immigration laws. At least this time humanity’s hatred worked to their advantage.

Paris turns away from the window, her head tipping. “And? How did it make you feel?”

Paris’s explanation on gender had never quite landed for it. She felt it so confidently, so absolutely- her first realization about her own existence.

R7440-M does not feel it so keenly as she does. “It is the best option so far.”

Ladies had made it confused, because no, that is not correct-- though it was ma’am a day later that made R7440-M discard the wrap it had been wearing. At least when the man in the kiosk had turned to another and stuttered through he wants to go to France it felt…

R7440-M’s processes spin, struggling to reach a consensus. It can only decide that it was not bad.

“You don’t have to choose.” Paris says, playfully bumping her shoulder to its. R7440-M knows this too. There were plenty of Omnics and humans who rejected the idea all together. Except…

“I do.” It says flatly, still not looking away from the seatback. “I will be nothing but Ravager to them otherwise.”

Paris doesn’t respond, can’t begin to comprehend. She stays silent and looks out the window, watching the scenery fly by outside.

The camp in Paris is, R7440-M dares to think, nice. A fenced-in area that was once a park, now full of tents and modified shipping containers and a few broken-down transport trucks. It is strange, R7440-M decides, seeing a settlement, a community of nothing but Omnics.

He likes it, at least it is a small place he can exist without feeling the stares of humans who can only see his sharply angled faceplate, the broad bands of armor on his chest. They will not attack him here-- they won’t attack Paris simply for traveling with him. No, this place is safety for all its inhabitants and R7440-M intends to keep it that way.

It is a good fit, too; R7440-M does not need to rest nearly as much as other Omnics do- so he walks the perimeter of the fence. He watches, follows each distance pulse until it fades away again. No human will harm the Omnics here.

It works, of course. Few humans approach the community and most that do are polite, kind people who are just trying to rebuild their lost city. He never did have to defend the camp, never lived up to the reputation that circled his model. And yet when those kind souls would come by with parts and training manuals and work opportunities they would look at him and he would see fear, distrust.

A singular word, a movement too fast- and it would be terror. He knows the expression well. The last fuzzy seconds of before her voice and-

R7440-M kills the memory again.

In a week she will stand outside the omnic camp and hug him for the first time. “You should go. If that’s your path, you should go!” She says it with such enthusiasm, such joy. Her model is tiny compared to his- his combat suites send frantic alarms at the contact of her thin, fragile plates on his armored chest. R7440-M does not move, fights through his most basic impulses.

It hardly feels like a path. All he knows is he cannot stay here. He sees the hatred in the eyes of humans outside the camp’s walls. The longer he is here, the worse it has been. His guards are always high, always scanning for hostiles, always walking the perimeter of the camp at night, circling endlessly for fear that one human will finally take their retribution for what he had done- for the blood-

Yet it is not the humans that finally made him understand. He feels it, sees it in the ducking of their heads, how they turn from him when he enters the room- the Omnics here fear him, what he’s done, what he is. R7440-M does not know if he can control them now, if his relayed orders would override the… gift they were given. The truth of it does not matter; the Omnics do not see him, they only see his purpose: Anubis’s relay.

“You have to write to me.” Paris says, finally disengaging from him.

A path had unfurled before him. A lone traveler had mentioned Aurora- the Voice- and a sanctuary that was gathering to her sacrifice. Thousands of miles away, deep in the Himalayas.

R7440-M nods, a habit he has picked up from the same humans that have tormented him. “I will.”

The snow falls gently around them. It is a strange sight still, he remembers it was snowing when he first stepped from the omnium, but here, now, he feels something when he looks at it. Admiration, perhaps. A quiet awe of the beauty, the intricacies of the universe they had been born into.

It is a new experience, being able to look upon the world and enjoy it. He’s not very good at it, the need to scan for hostiles, to protect this little haven, makes it difficult to simply be. But he tries, and that is enough for his new master.

The omnic before him folds his hands behind his back, looking up at him with such a serenity that he can only envy. And then that envy makes his circuits burn in shame, in admiration, and hope that it is possible for something like himself can achieve that.

“You have chosen a name, Brother?” Mondatta asks.

“I have.” He says. Despite the monk’s aura of tranquility, something about Mondatta- about all of Shambali- makes him nervous. A pressure he has not felt before. No longer is he wandering towards a path, he has found his place… this, too, is a new experience. He says it to another for the first time: “Ramattra.”

Mondatta tips his head and repeats, “Ramattra.”

He cannot pinpoint what he feels. It is… strange being addressed by anything other than his designation, his serial number, even stranger to be called by a collection of phonemes that he has chosen himself, by something that has meaning beyond identification. And yet.

“Is it acceptable?” He asks.

Mondatta sighs, lays one tiny hand on his. “It is your name, Brother. Only you can decide that.”

He hates that. He aches for guidance, for approval, for directives. All he has in her voice, Aurora’s one and only lesson: choose well. He nods and repeats it: “My name is Ramattra.”

Why do we use relays with headlights and not directly connect the headlights to the battery?

Using relays with headlights instead of connecting them directly to the battery is critical for safety, efficiency, and performance in automotive electrical systems. Here's why:

1. Reduce Load on the Headlight Switch

Problem: Headlights draw significant current (e.g., 55W halogen bulbs ≈ 4.5–10A each). Wiring this directly through the dashboard switch would: • Overheat the switch, melting plastic or causing fires. • Require thick, expensive wiring to handle the current.

Solution: Relays act as heavy-duty remote switches, handling the high current while the dashboard switch only controls the relay’s low-current coil (0.1–0.5A).

2. Minimize Voltage Drop

Problem: Long wire runs from the battery to the headlights (via the dashboard) create resistance, reducing voltage at the bulbs.

Solution: Relays are placed closer to the battery or headlights, shortening high-current paths. This preserves voltage (e.g., 12V at the bulb vs. 10V without a relay).

3. Simplify Complex Lighting Systems Modern features like auto high beams, adaptive lighting, or daytime running lights (DRLs) require precise control. Relays enable:

Modularity: A single relay can power multiple lights.

Integration with ECUs: Relays are controlled by the car’s computer without exposing it to high current.

Fail-safes: Relays can be fused independently, protecting the rest of the electrical system.

4. Enhance Safety and Reliability

Fuse Protection: Relays are paired with fuses (e.g., 15–30A) to prevent fire risks from short circuits.

Durability: Relays withstand vibration and heat better than switches.

Serviceability: Replacing a $5–$20 relay is cheaper and faster than rewiring a burned-out switch.

5. Cost and Space Savings

Smaller Switches: Low-current switches are cheaper and fit into tight dashboards.

Lighter Wiring: Thin control wires save weight and cost vs. heavy-gauge direct wiring.

What Happens Without a Relay? Scenario Result Halogen headlights (110W) Switch/wiring overheats, risking fire. LED/DRL systems ECU or control module fries from high load. Long-term use Frequent switch failures, dim headlights.

Example: Relay Circuit vs. Direct Wiring Parameter With Relay Direct to Switch Switch Current 0.2A (safe for small wiring) 10A (requires heavy wiring) Voltage at Bulb ~12V (optimal brightness) ~9–10V (dim, yellow light) Failure Risk Relay/fuse fails (easy fix) Fire, melted switch, ECU damage

When Are Relays Not Used?

Low-power LEDs: Some modern LED headlights draw <2A, allowing direct wiring (but still often use relays for standardization).

Older vehicles: Pre-1980s cars sometimes used direct wiring, leading to frequent switch burnout.

Key Takeaway Relays are the unsung heroes of automotive lighting. They enable modern features, improve safety, and ensure your headlights shine brightly without melting your dashboard. Always check relays first if headlights malfunction! 🔌🚗

Mercedes-Benz is developing a new type of solar paint that could transform electric vehicle power. This photovoltaic coating, just 5 micrometers thick, covers 11 square meters. It can generate enough energy to power a car for up to 7,456 miles (12,000 kilometers) annually under ideal conditions.

The nanoparticle-based paint allows 94% of solar energy to pass through and is easy to recycle. It’s designed to be lightweight (50 grams per square meter) and can cover all exterior vehicle surfaces.

This solar paint, which contains no rare earth elements or silicon, is also cheaper to produce than conventional solar modules. The energy generated can be used to drive the vehicle or feed into the high-voltage battery even when the car is off.

This could mean no need to plug in for charging. The paint can be applied directly to the car’s body, with the color paint job sprayed over it to protect against scratches and other damage.

Week in Review

October 23rd-29th

Welcome to Fragile Practice, where I attempt to make something of value out of stuff I have to read.

My future plan is to do longer-form original pieces on interesting topics or trends. For now, I'm going to make the weekly reviews habitual and see if I have any time left.

Technology

OpenAI forms team to study ‘catastrophic’ AI risks, including nuclear threats - Tech Crunch; Kyle Wiggers

OpenAI launched a new research team called AI Safety and Security to investigate the potential harms of artificial intelligence focused on AI alignment, AI robustness, AI governance, and AI ethics.

Note: Same energy as “cigarette company funds medical research into smoking risks”.

Artists Allege Meta’s AI Data Deletion Request Process Is a ‘Fake PR Stunt’ - Wired; Kate Knibbs

Artists who participated in Meta’s Artificial Intelligence Artist Residency Program accused the company of failing to honor their data deletion requests and claim that Meta used their personal data to train its AI models without their consent.

Note: Someday we will stop being surprised that corporate activities without obvious profit motive are all fake PR stunts.

GM and Honda ditch plan to build cheaper electric vehicles - The Verge; Andrew J. Hawkins

General Motors and Honda cancel their joint venture to develop and produce cheaper electric vehicles for the US market, citing the chip shortage, rising costs of battery materials, and the changing market conditions.

Note: What are the odds this isn’t related to the 7 billion dollars the US government announced to create hydrogen hubs.

'AI divide' across the US leaves economists concerned - The Register; Thomas Claburn

A new study by economists from Harvard University and MIT reveals a significant gap in AI adoption and innovation across different regions in the US.

The study finds that AI usage is highest in California's Silicon Valley and the San Francisco Bay Area, but was also noted in Nashville, San Antonio, Las Vegas, New Orleans, San Diego, and Tampa, as well as Riverside, Louisville, Columbus, Austin, and Atlanta.

Nvidia to Challenge Intel With Arm-Based Processors for PCs - Bloomberg; Ian King

Nvidia is using Arm technology to develop CPUs that would challenge Intel processors in PCs, and which could go on sale as soon as 2025.

Note: I am far from an NVIDIA fan, but I’m stoked for any amount of new competition in the CPU space.

New tool lets artists fight AI image bots by hiding corrupt data in plain sight - Engadget; Sarah Fielding

A team at the University of Chicago created Nightshade, a tool that lets artists fight AI image bots by adding undetectable pixels into an image that can alter how a machine-learning model produces content and what that finished product looks like.

Nightshade is intended to protect artists work and has been tested on both Stable Diffusion and an in-house AI built by the researchers.

IBM's NorthPole chip runs AI-based image recognition 22 times faster than current chips - Tech Xplore; Bob Yirka

NorthPole combines the processing module and the data it uses in a two-dimensional array of memory blocks and interconnected CPUs, and is reportedly inspired by the human brain.

NorthPole can currently only run specialized AI processes and not training processes or large language models, but the researchers plan to test connecting multiple chips together to overcome this limitation.

Apple’s $130 Thunderbolt 4 cable could be worth it, as seen in X-ray CT scans - Ars Technica; Kevin Purdy

Note: These scans are super cool. And make me feel somewhat better about insisting on quality cables. A+.

The Shifting Web

On-by-default video calls come to X, disable to retain your sanity - The Register; Brandon Vigliarolo

Video and audio calling is limited to anyone you follow or who is in your address book, if you granted X permission to comb through it.

Calling other users also requires that they’ve sent at least one direct message to you before.

Only premium users can place calls, but everyone can receive them.

Google Search Boss Says Company Invests to Avoid Becoming ‘Roadkill’ - The New York Times; Nico Grant

Google’s senior vice president overseeing search said that he sees a world of threats that could humble his company at any moment.

Google Maps is getting new AI-powered search updates, an enhanced navigation interface and more - Tech Crunch; Aisha Malik

Note: These AI recommender systems are going to be incredibly valuable advertising space. It is interesting that Apple decided to compete with Google in maps but not in basic search, but has so far not placed ads in the search results.

Reddit finally takes its API war where it belongs: to AI companies - Ars Technica; Scharon Harding

Reddit met with generative AI companies to negotiate a deal for being paid for its data, and may block crawlers if no deal is made soon.

Note: Google searches for info on Reddit often seem more effective than searching Reddit itself. If they are unable to make a deal, and Reddit follows through, it will be a legitimate loss for discoverability but also an incredibly interesting experiment to see what Reddit is like without Google.

Bandcamp’s Entire Union Bargaining Team Was Laid Off - 404 Media; Emanuel Maiberg

Bandcamp’s new owner (Songtradr) offered jobs to just half of existing employees, with cuts disproportionately hitting union leaders. Every member of the union’s eight-person bargaining team was laid off, and 40 of the union's 67 members lost their jobs.

Songtradr spokesperson Lindsay Nahmiache claimed that the firm didn’t have access to union membership information.

Note: This just sucks. Bandcamp is rad, and it’s hard to imagine it continuing to be rad after this. I wonder if Epic had ideas for BC that didn’t work out.

Surveillance & Digital Privacy

Mozilla Launches Annual Digital Privacy 'Creep-o-Meter'. This Year's Status: 'Very Creepy' - Slashdot

Mozilla gave the current state of digital privacy a 75.6/100, with 100 being the creepiest.

They measured security features, data collection, and data sharing practices of over 500 gadgets, apps, and cars to come up with their score.

Every car Mozilla tested failed to meet their privacy and security standards.

Note: It would be great if even one auto brand would take privacy seriously.

EPIC Testifies in Support of Massachusetts Data Privacy and Protection Act -Electronic Privacy Information Center (EPIC)

Massachusetts version of ADPPA.

Note: While it may warm my dead heart to see any online privacy protections in law, scrambling to do so in response to generative AI is unlikely to protect Americans in any meaningful way from the surveillance driven form of capitalism we’ve all been living under for decades.

Complex Spy Platform StripedFly Bites 1M Victims - Dark Reading

StripedFly is a complex platform disguised as a cryptominer and evaded detection for six years by using a custom version of EternalBlue exploit, a built-in Tor network tunnel, and trusted services like GitLab, GitHub, and Bitbucket to communicate with C2 servers and update its functionality.

iPhones have been exposing your unique MAC despite Apple's promises otherwise - Ars Technica

A privacy feature which claimed to hide the Wi-Fi MAC address of iOS devices when joining a network was broken since iOS 14, and was finally patched in 17.1, released on Wednesday.

Note: I imagine this bug was reported a while ago, but wasn’t publically reported until the fix was released as a term of apple’s bug bounty program.

What the !#@% is a Passkey? - Electronic Frontier Foundation

Note: I welcome our passkey overlords.

This complexity stems from design priorities, regulatory compliance, and advanced technology integration. Below are the key reasons and their implications:

Advanced Lighting Systems

Modern vehicles increasingly use adaptive headlights (e.g., auto-leveling, cornering beams) and integrated LED arrays or laser modules instead of traditional bulbs. These systems are tightly controlled by onboard computers and sensors. For example: Adaptive Headlights: Adjust brightness and direction based on steering input or road conditions. Even minor misalignment can disrupt the entire system, requiring recalibration with proprietary software.

Integrated LED/Laser Modules: Often soldered into sealed assemblies rather than using replaceable bulbs. Replacing them may necessitate swapping the entire headlight unit.

Engineering and Aesthetic Trade-offs

Manufacturers prioritize sleek, aerodynamic designs and compact packaging, which often result in tightly packed engine bays and headlight housings: Space Constraints: Headlights may be fused with grilles, fenders, or bumper components. Accessing the bulb might require removing the wheel well liner, battery, or air filter housing.

Proprietary Fasteners: Custom clips or screws demand specialized tools, discouraging DIY repairs.

Regulatory Compliance and Safety Standards

Strict homologation rules (e.g., SAE, ECE) mandate precise beam patterns, brightness, and alignment. To ensure compliance: Tamper-Proof Designs: Manufacturers discourage aftermarket modifications by sealing systems or using non-standard components. Non-OEM parts risk failing inspections or causing glare hazards.

Self-Leveling Requirements: Adaptive headlights must maintain proper alignment with the road, which can only be reset via dealership diagnostics.

Profit and Service Model

Dealerships and certified repair shops benefit from locked-in servicing: Software Dependencies: Adaptive systems require proprietary diagnostic tools (e.g., OEM scanners) to reset error codes or recalibrate sensors.

Warranty Control: Manufacturers may void warranties if non-certified technicians attempt repairs, steering owners to dealerships.

Safety and Durability Considerations

Sealed Assemblies: Protect sensitive electronics from moisture and dust, ensuring longevity and UV resistance.

Electrical Complexity: Modern bulbs (e.g., HID, LED) require precise voltage regulation. Incorrect handling can damage the vehicle’s electrical system or reduce bulb lifespan.

Advice for Owners: Consult Manuals: Some models allow bulb access via hidden panels.

Invest in Professional Help: For adaptive or laser systems, dealerships ensure compliance and safety.

Avoid Aftermarket Modifications: Non-homologated parts risk fines or accidents.

While frustrating, these design choices reflect a balance between innovation, safety, and market dynamics. For complex systems, dealerships remain the safest (if pricier) option.
