When you purchase through links in our articles, we may earn a small commission. Tapo's 4K solar security camera kit hits a new low price at Amazon The solar-powered Tapo C660 is on sale for $115.99, down from $169.99. If you've always wanted an outdoor security camera for your home but dreaded the wiring, the battery upkeep, or the paid subscriptions for storing footage, then here's a deal for you. My favorite thing about the C660 is how easy it is to set up. Get up on a ladder, drill a couple of screws into where you want it mounted, actually mount the thing, and you're done.

The Download: a "God-driven" cryptocurrency and a solar engineering roadmap

MIT Technology Review

Plus: OpenAI's agents used at least 10 websites for unauthorized communications. God told them to sell crypto. When Eli Regalado first heard God speak to him, he wondered whether he was hallucinating. According to Eli and his wife, Kaitlyn, He told them to get married, buy a house, and start having kids. Then in 2021, divine guidance steered them in an unexpected new direction: crypto. That October, the Regalados later testified in court, they received holdings in a little-known digital coin.


AI subscriptions are the electric bill. Your PC is the solar panel

PCWorld

When you purchase through links in our articles, we may earn a small commission. AI subscriptions are the electric bill. You're always going to pay for cloud AI, so why not invest in yourself? The AI pendulum has swung back and forth throughout the last few years, from ChatGPT and Copilot in the cloud, then back to local AI and the PC's newfound NPU, then back to independent agents like Claude. Now it's headed the way of the PC once again, abandoning privacy arguments (which still stand strong!) for a more straightforward argument: It's better for your wallet.


Powering AI is an architecture problem

MIT Technology Review

Moving power protection up the voltage stack, outside the building, and into the power path doesn't just solve outages; it changes density, permitting timelines and backup power economics. On July 22, 2026, a transmission line fault in Ashburn, Virginia--the heart of the world's largest data center cluster--knocked more than 3 gigawatts of load off the grid in seconds. Two years earlier, a single failed surge arrester dropped roughly 60 Virginia facilities and 1,500 megawatts at once. No one could anticipate so much uniform load responding to grid faults the same way, at the same time. The AI power debate is mostly about generation: more turbines, more solar, more transmission. The grid needs more electrons.
