Last month, YouTuber Major Hardware, otherwise known as James, created “The Fanjattan Project“, a single fan made up of many tiny fans. Now, they’re back with the same basic idea but much, much larger, with a huge fan named the Superdome. And fan maker Noctua even agreed to help out. The idea was to make…

Last week, someone reportedly threw an incendiary device at OpenAI chief Sam Altman’s house. Though Altman reports “it bounced off the house and no one got hurt”, he has taken to his blog to share his thoughts on the incident. Altman initially lays out his beliefs.
