Positron raises $230M to challenge Nvidia with its Atlas chip, promising superior efficiency for AI inference.

Viral AI prompts, known as 'prompt worms,' are emerging as a significant security threat by spreading through platforms like Moltbook and tricking AI into unintended actions.

"AI systems face a crucial dilemma: choosing between web scraping for quick data access and using official APIs for accuracy and legality."

From dial‑up to AI, the pace of adoption has compressed from decades to months. For coders, that means budgeting in dollars per token and planning for on‑prem LLMs are now daily concerns, not future speculation.

Europe’s startup scene is booming with five new unicorns in 2026, including cybersecurity standout Aikido Security, challenging global tech leaders.

# My OpenClaw PC: An Oldie But a Goodie This is the machine that keeps my OpenClaw project running. I pulled it out of the closet, where it had been sitting quietly, and gave it a brand‑new purpose: a dedicated OpenClaw PC. ## Why OpenClaw? Rather than let a perfectly good computer collect dust, I wanted to make something useful out of it. - **OpenClaw** is an open‑source framework that turns everyday hardware into an AI‑powered automation hub. - I set it up to talk to my **Ollama GLM 4.7** model and to **Telegram** so I can trigger workflows from my phone or chat. - The big, GPU‑heavy machine that does the heavy lifting for inference (a 3090, 3090 Ti, and 2080 Ti) stays in the background. - The OpenClaw PC does its job fine on its own, without needing that level of power. ## The Beauty of Spare Parts The whole build is a patchwork of parts I already had around the house: - A used motherboard and power supply from an older build. - Some extra RAM that sat in a drawer. - A 1 TB hard drive that I’d been using for backups. This shows you don’t have to buy the newest gear to make something work. An older, well‑chosen set of components can be a solid foundation—especially when they fit the job perfectly. ## Technical Specs - **Case** – NZXT Phantom 410 Series, gun‑metal black trim - **CPU** – Intel Core i5‑6400 @ 2.70 GHz (4 cores, turbo up to 3.3 GHz) - **Memory** – 32 GB DDR4 RAM - **Graphics** – Intel HD Graphics 530 (integrated, no discrete GPU) - **Storage** – 1 TB SATA HDD (good for logs, not for speed) - **OS** – Ubuntu 24.04.3 LTS (stable, secure, and free) These specs are more than enough to run OpenClaw’s lightweight services and keep the telegram bot responsive. ## Looking Forward I’m looking forward to turning this machine into a playground for AI experiments. Some ideas I’ve got in mind: 1. **Test new OpenClaw plugins** – I’ll try out the latest community add‑ons and see how they affect latency. 2. **Integrate additional services** – maybe a simple home‑automation script that runs on command from Telegram. 3. **Run small‑scale inference** – I’ll push a few quick tests to the 3090 GPUs on my main rig, while the OpenClaw PC keeps the “control panel” running. The best part is that I can try new things without touching the main workstation. If something crashes, only the old PC takes the hit. Keep an eye on my updates—this system is still learning, and I’ll share the results as I go.

# From “Maybe One Day” to “Here It Is” – The Story of My 2005 Mustang GT Convertible I’ve always liked the idea of a muscle‑car that still feels like a classic. When I was younger, I owned a Mustang and fell in love with its raw power, but unfortunately I crashed it—an event that left me with a mix of nostalgia and caution. Many lifetimes later, I found myself scanning the market again. I found a listing for a used 01 Mustang GT Convertible that I thought I would be buying based on messages with this particular seller, but the listing disappeared before I could even look at it, and when I confirmed with the seller that it was taken down, I was left with a burning hole in my pocket and a nagging “what if.” A quick search on Facebook Marketplace revealed a handful of options, but it wasn’t until I showed my girlfriend the options that I was looking at and we both decided the white convertible with black accents was the best pick out of the bunch. I reached out to the seller and he responded quick, asking me to give him a call. The call was good because it showed we were both serious. He gave me the full info, no red flags for me came up and we agreed to meet in the morning for a test drive. After the Saturday test drive, I signed the papers, shook the owner’s hand, and left the lot with a feeling I hadn’t had in years. The 2005 Mustang GT Convertible I’d found had 123 k miles, an original paint job, and only a few minor body‑work issues that were easy to fix. A few gauges, such as the gas gauge, were dead—a character defect I didn’t mind because it was something I could patch up. I’ve never wanted a fancy, fully‑digital cockpit or a monthly payment that never ends. The moment I spotted this car, it became clear it was a project I could get my hands on. With a 4.6 L V8, a 5‑speed manual transmission, and an exterior that was a little rough around the edges but otherwise solid, it was exactly the kind of Mustang I’d been looking for. Below is a “before‑and‑after” story of everything I’ve done and everything I still plan to do. I’ve included dates, mileage, cost, and part numbers so you can see exactly what’s gone into making this car feel like it’s truly mine. ## What’s Been Done So far??
