Summary:
President Donald Trump has terminated the government-funded security detail for Dr. Anthony Fauci, the former director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, who played a pivotal role during the COVID-19 pandemic. This security was initially provided due to credible death threats against Fauci. Following the revocation, Fauci has arranged for private security at his own expense. Trump defended the decision, stating that former government officials cannot retain security details indefinitely and suggesting that individuals like Fauci, who have substantial earnings, can afford private security. This move aligns with similar actions taken by the administration, including ending security protections for former officials such as John Bolton and Mike Pompeo.

Summary:
In a recent 45-minute phone call, U.S. President Donald Trump reiterated his demand for the United States to gain control over Greenland, an autonomous Danish territory. Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen firmly responded that Greenland is not for sale. According to European officials, the conversation was aggressive, with Trump threatening punitive tariffs against Denmark if it refused to relinquish control of Greenland. Frederiksen proposed enhanced cooperation on military bases and mineral exploitation in Greenland, but Trump dismissed these offers, insisting on full U.S. control. This development has heightened concerns in Europe about strained transatlantic relations, especially following Trump’s recent threats of heavy tariffs on the EU and demands for increased defense spending from NATO allies.

Security researchers Sam Curry and Shubham Shah identified critical vulnerabilities in Subaru’s web portal that allowed unauthorized access to vehicles’ internet-connected features. Through these flaws, they could remotely unlock doors, start the engine, and access detailed location histories spanning at least a year. These vulnerabilities potentially affected millions of Subaru vehicles equipped with the Starlink system in the U.S., Canada, and Japan. Upon being informed, Subaru promptly addressed and patched the issues. However, concerns remain about the extensive location data accessible to Subaru employees, highlighting broader privacy implications regarding the data modern vehicles collect.

The real problem here is the nostalgia factor. A lot of people grew up having the planets ingrained into their brains with various mnemonics. Hard to say goodbye to “pizza”.

To be fair, it’s called “Today I Learned”. Just happens that I learned this when I was yesterday’s years old. That’s and I not a U.
Also, based on the other responses, it seems I’m not the only one who might not have known this before now.
