Trump Take LEGO [email-walled] (www.404media.co)
 

LEGO's Pick a Brick service is no longer shipping most pieces to the US due to Donald Trump's tariff policy. Pick a Brick allows people to buy individual bricks for prices that are usually less than a dollar each. But due to the elimination of the de minimis policy, which waived tariffs on imports less than $800, it is no longer financially viable for LEGO to ship to the US. Some bricks are still available, as LEGO keeps popular bricks in warehouses in the US, but most bricks are shipped from Denmark. Canada, for unknown reasons, is also affected by the shipment pause.

The issue is that Mormons and other Christians seem to have differing views on who counts as a Christian. Most Christian sects use the Nicene Creed, which includes the basic set of beliefs all (or almost all, depending on your view ofc) Christian sects adhere to. Mormonism diverges from the Nicene Creed:

  • they don't believe in one God (Mormons believe that humans have the capability to become Gods, and that God was mortal at one time and had His own God),
  • they don't believe that God made the universe (they simply believe that He organized it),
  • and they don't believe that God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit are one substance (they believe that They are three distinct beings).

Mormonism, on the other hand, seems to believe that Christianity is simply accepting Jesus as a prophet sent by God and the Bible as holy scripture...but by that logic Muslims would also be considered Christians.

Anthropic’s auto-clicking AI Chrome extension raises browser-hijacking concerns (arstechnica.com)
 

Security researchers have concerns that Anthropic's Claude for Chrome is vulnerable to malicious prompting. Claude for Chrome allows users to chat with Claude as they browse the web. Claude can read webpages, fill forms, and click on links and buttons to perform complex tasks for the user. But Anthropic's testing revealed that 11.2% of malicious prompting attempts succeeded even with safety measures in place. One test case was a malicious email that asked Claude to delete all emails in the user's inbox for "mailbox hygiene". AI researcher Simon Willison states that an 11.2% success rate is unacceptable for so-called AI agents, especially when several AI companies are releasing their own browser extensions. One competing product, Perplexity's Comet browser, was found to be vulnerable to a prompt injection attack that instructed it to start password recovery for the user's Gmail account. Although Perplexity attempted to fix the issue, Comet remains vulnerable to this attack.
