Renowned YouTuber Reckless Ben and the U.S. secondhand LEGO retail chain Bricks & Minifigs have been locked in an ongoing legal battle, with a third installment documentary revealing that when he went to court, he was prohibited from learning what charges he was facing. CEO Ammon McNeff also allegedly lied to police about him “threatening arson and murder,” and the sheer level of craziness surrounding the entire incident leaves people dumbfounded.

Real Vision’s Chief Crypto Analyst Jamie Coutts said on the Trade Secrets program that Bitcoin is entering the second half of a bear market, and it could rally to $250,000 over the next two to three years. However, he warned that quantum computing threats will not be dealt with before 2027 and will become a major risk for the internet.

A Russian man was kidnapped and held captive for nearly 30 hours in Bali by masked attackers, forced to hand over his cryptocurrency account password, suffering losses of about $5 million; police have cordoned off 4 crime scenes for investigation, but no one has been arrested yet.
(Background: 70% of global crypto wrench attacks occur in France (41 kidnapping cases so far this year)—why?)

Musk urged Tesla employees to switch to Grok developed by its own xAI whenever possible, arguing that its token cost is only one-twelfth of Anthropic Claude Fable 5. But in a memo of his own, he admits that Fable is clearly stronger.
(Recap: Don’t invest in Musk! Two Wall Street ETFs “ring-fence” Tesla and SpaceX—the selling point: political stance?)
(Background: The big-name spat》Musk mocked Altman “after stealing from OpenAI, then stealing from Apple,” and Altman hit back: SpaceX is just pure retail-chopping.)
Saving 12 times on token costs comes at the price of asking employees to use a model that even the boss himself admits is weaker—this contradiction is hidden in Musk’s memo. According to The

Starlink is SpaceX’s low-Earth orbit (LEO) satellite network service. It uses thousands of satellites to replace traditional terrestrial lines or a single geostationary satellite, and the number of global users has already surpassed 10 million as of February 2026.
(Background: Starlink’s satellite network in Taiwan is “100% wholly owned by a single private company”! A heated debate in the Legislative Yuan over loosening regulations on LEO satellites, with concerns that Musk’s ties to China could create a national security loophole.)

Musk and Sam Altman spar on X: Musk accuses Altman of “upgrading” fraud by “stealing” a non-profit organization and also “stealing” Apple technology, while Altman fires back that Musk is pitching space data centers to retail investors in the stock market.
(Background: Sun Zhengyi does not agree with Musk’s space data centers: launching rockets and ongoing maintenance costs aren’t worth it, plus there’s also communication latency.)
(Additional context: Apple sues OpenAI over poaching and stealing confidential information—interview design files, not returning an employee’s laptop after resignation, downloading thousands of pages of files..)
In the past, Musk and Sam Altman’s clashes have mostly stayed at a “thus far and no further” level: after trading insults, each side walks away. But this time they’re not playing along—both sides tear the facade off. The opening move is Musk: in response to recent allegations from Apple that OpenAI stole corporate secrets, he strikes first by accusing Altman’s “fraud” of being “upgraded to a whole new realm.”

AI Futures Project released a report titled《AI 2040：Plan A》on the 9th, arguing that the industry’s default timeline for AGI should be pushed back—from 2030 to 2040. The proposal is supported by four pillars.

The U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) disregarded more than 1,600 objections and approved the launch of the world’s first commercial space-reflector satellite, which can create “sunlight” over specific areas.

A review paper completed by more than 30 interdisciplinary scholars and published in the journal *Vision* says that artificial visual patterns—such as striped flooring, grid-like architecture, fluorescent lights, and LED flicker—may cause oxygen overload in the brain’s visual cortex, triggering headaches, nausea, and even epilepsy.

The brain goes into alert
Who can’t take it first
From light bulbs to car headlights—the history ledger of flicker
When building a house, it’s something you should think about in the design
This is still a hypothesis
Step into the elevator lobby of an office building—beneath your feet lies an entire expanse of black-and-white striped carpet; or, late at night as you drive home, the LED headlights of oncoming vehicles suddenly drag a trail of ghost images across your field of view. Your temples begin to throb, your eyes feel strained, and you even get that urge to vomit. You think it’s because you’re just too tired—right? But a study conducted by more than 30 interdisciplinary scholars suggests the problem may lie in the way the brain operates.

Near the Ukrainian front line, soldiers discovered several unusual nests—not made of dead branches and mud, but woven from grass mixed with fiber-optic cables used for drone combat. They were sent to be kept in the Kyiv War Museum’s collection.

Sunlight spills over the treetops and rooftops along the Ukrainian front line, and under the light, thin strands of wiring flicker—at first glance, they seem like a vast spider web spread across the entire stretch of fields and towns, as if the “Spider-Silk Cave” from *Journey to the West*. But in fact, these lines are fiber-optic cables used for drone warfare, and within them, several birds have even quietly built their own homes using the fiber.

The Ethereum Foundation sent a group of AI agents to identify a remotely triggerable crash vulnerability severe enough to take validators offline, revealing it as CVE-2026-34219. But the same batch of AI also generated about 1,000 false alarms in one go—what’s hard is telling which ones are real.
