Astronomers discover previously unknown quasi-moon near Earth | CNN
https://edition.cnn.com/2025/09/16/science/earth-quasi-moon-2025-pn7
Astronomers have spotted a quasi-moon near Earth — and the small space rock has likely been hanging out near our planet unseen by telescopes for about 60 years, according to new research.
The newly discovered celestial object, named 2025 PN7, is a type of near-Earth asteroid that orbits the sun but sticks close to our planet. Like our world, 2025 PN7 takes one year to complete an orbit around the sun.

Zero Knowledge Proof Of Outstanding Reserves
https://github.com/AbdelStark/zkpoor
zkpoor enables companies to prove their Bitcoin holdings cryptographically without revealing addresses or UTXOs, using STARK proofs.
Built on top of the Bitcoin Treasury foundation, zkpoor extends the original dashboard with zero-knowledge proof generation and verification capabilities.
🎯 Problem & Solution
Problem: Companies like MicroStrategy claim large BTC holdings but won't publish addresses due to security concerns. Current "proof of reserves" relies on voluntary claims without cryptographic verification.
Solution: zkpoor provides cryptographic proof of BTC reserves without revealing individual addresses or UTXOs, strengthening Bitcoin's culture of verifiable trust.
🏗️ Architecture
This is a unified web application with two main components:
Enhanced Public Dashboard - Original Bitcoin Treasury features plus "Verify with STARK" cryptographic verification
Treasury Manager Portal - Protected interface for inputting UTXOs and generating proofs
🚀 Development Phases
Phase 1: UI/UX implementation with mocked proof generation and verification
Phase 2: Backend integration with actual STARK proof generation
Phase 3: Cairo program implementation for cryptographic proofs

Multi-Kernel Architecture Proposed For The Linux Kernel
https://www.phoronix.com/news/Linux-Multi-Kernel-Patches
ode was open-sourced this week and posted to the Linux kernel mailing list as a "request for comments" (RFC) for a multi-kernel architecture. This proposal could allow for multiple independent kernel instances to co-exist on a single physical machine. Each kernel could run on dedicated CPU Cores while sharing underlying hardware resources. This could also allow for some complex use-cases such as real-time (RT) kernels running on select CPU cores.

COMMODORE 64 ULTIMATE
https://www.commodore.net/
Honouring the past. Innovating the future.
Without the distractions that stole it.
Commodore has returned from a parallel timeline where tech stayed optimistic, inviting, and human. Where it served us, not enslaved us. We’re here to bring that feeling back - retro • futurism, transparent tech, digital detox, real innovation.
This is the first real Commodore computer in over 30 years, and it's picked up a few new tricks.
Not an emulator. Not a PC. Retrogaming heaven in three dimensions: silicon, nostalgia, and light. Powered by a FPGA recreation of the original motherboard, wrapped in glowing game-reactive LEDs (or classic beige of course).
Compatible with 10,000+ original retro games, cartridges, peripherals + more RAM & 48Mhz Turbo boost!
Colour-changing case and keyboard with LEDs that respond to 2 real or 8 replicated onboard SID sound chips
Wi-Fi game transfer & USB "cassette" bursting with classic & new games

Watch our first TV ad in over 30 years
Plus: World's first transparent keyboard circuit board to let the tech speak for itself
1982 + 2025 creator autographs etched forever into the mainboard copper
Spiral-bound manual, glossy classic box, and more
Whether you grew up with a Commodore or never heard of one, this is for you.
A simpler, distraction-free computing experience. A chance to learn how computers really work. A fun, inviting way to introduce your kids to BASIC coding. And for the kid still within.
C64U isn’t tech that controls you. It invites you...
READY.
