"JoJo" Diaz was set to defend his WBC interim lightweight belt against Ryan Garcia, but the 29-year-old slugger now has a shot at the real thing, and he doesn't need to delve into the Rocky archives for underdog inspiration. 

George Kambosos' beating of unified lightweight champ Teofimo Lopez last weekend sent shockwaves through boxing circles, and should give Diaz all the belief he needs.

"The Dream", six years his opponent's junior, was jeered by large sections of the crowd after beating former three-weight champ Jorge Linares. Haney dominated the fight but was hurt late on and just about held on for victory.

He's got plenty to prove, and here's how to watch Devin Haney vs Joseph Diaz Jr online and get a live stream, no matter where you are in the world.

Working from home can be tedious especially in a cramped apartment which is why Lenovo has announced the launch of a new initiative that will allow employees to work from one of the most remote locations on Earth.

The company's new Work for Humankind initiative will allow volunteers from around the world to take part in a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to make a long-lasting difference while working remotely from an island 400 miles off the coast of mainland Chile.

Work for Humankind will be held at Robinson Crusoe Island which is one of the most ecologically rich places on the planet. However, the island currently faces a number of challenges including access to education, healthcare, the impact of habitat degradation and invasive species. For this reason, the Chilean Government and the international non-profit Island Conversation have launched a number of community-drive projects over the last decade to address these problems.

Unfortunately though, these efforts have been hindered by telecommunications and technology challenges which is why Lenovo has decided to step in and create a new technology hub on the island.

Work for Humankind

The Work for Humankind initiative will send select volunteers with a range of skills, backgrounds and specialties to Robinson Crusoe to help support the local community and prevent the extinction of endangered species all while being able to continue working their current jobs remotely.

As part of these efforts, Lenovo will create a cutting-edge technology hub with a range of devices, services and solutions from its Intelligent Devices Group such as high-speed internet connectivity to help the island advance its goals.

Vice president and CMO of Lenovo's Intelligent Devices Group, Emily Ketchen explained in a press release why the company has decided to launch its Work for Humankind initiative, saying:

“Whether it’s due to the life-changing nature of the pandemic, or society’s increased focus on sustainability, people are recognizing the weight of doing good and technology’s role in enabling that. To help us achieve this, we need to work differently, and we’re relying on tech to help us do so. 79% of those surveyed believe technology and tech companies are the most critical factors in enabling people to work from anywhere. Companies like Lenovo can be a powerful catalyst for this change. That’s why we’re launching Work for Humankind, to draw attention to the importance of our individual wellbeing as well as that of our communities, by showcasing how innovation in tech can enable us to achieve both.”

If you're interested in protecting the environment and are a flexible remote worker, you can apply here by December 30 to have a chance to become one of the lucky volunteers on Robinson Crusoe Island.

Latest Tech News

The International Space Station just had to dodge space junk in orbit, demonstrating the increasing risk to the orbital station and smaller satellites from the proliferation of space trash in Low Earth Orbit.  

According to Reuters, Roscosmos reported that the International Space Station (ISS) descended by just over 300 meters for almost three minutes to avoid a piece of space junk left over from a 1994 US space launch before returning to its typical orbit.

The news came from Dimitry Rogozin, the head of the Russian space agency Roscosmos, and marks the latest in a series of incidents involving the fast growing cloud of space junk surrounding the planet.

Earlier this week, NASA had to postpone a spacewalk to fix an antenna on the ISS over space debris concerns, and the ISS was forced to maneuver out of the way of a piece of a disabled Chinese satellite just last month.

Russia also conducted an anti-satellite missile test last month that destroyed a decommissioned Russian satellite, forcing astronauts in the ISS to lock themselves in docked Soyuz and SpaceX Dragon Crew capsules for safety as the ISS passed the debris field.

Russia isn't the only one to have conducted anti-satellite missile test recently. In early 2019, India launched an anti-satellite missile test that produced a debris field that is now in orbit around the planet.

The US isn't innocent either, as it shot down a failed satellite in the 2008, citing safety reasons, while China also shot down one of its own satellites in 2007. 

And like with today's incident, space launches often leave behind booster rocket pieces, fairings, and other debris that typically fall back to Earth and burn up in the atmosphere, but not always. This debris can remain in orbit, posing a serious threat for decades afterward.

Space junk could lock humanity out of space for generations

To understand why space junk is such a concern, all you need to know is how fast things move up there.

Objects in orbit travel at speeds up to 17,500 mph (about 28,160 km/h), according to NASA, and since nearly all of the space junk up there is made of metal, collisions of any kind are inherently dangerous. 

If objects are traveling at the same speeds, the relative speeds of the collisions might be greatly reduced, but smacking the ISS into a piece of old satellite the size of an air conditioner at 75 mph (about 120 km/h) is still more than enough to cause serious damage, and maybe even threaten the integrity of the ISS.

Even smaller pieces of debris can pose a serious danger. There are roughly 23,000 pieces of debris in orbit that are the size of a softball or larger, and getting hit with a softball-sized piece of metal debris at 200 mph (about 320 km/h) can easily punch a hole in the side of a spacecraft or satellite. 

In fact, it has already done so to numerous satellites, producing even more space debris as a result, causing a cascading proliferation of space debris which many fear will lead to something known as Kessler syndrome. 

In this scenario, space junk essentially becomes so out of control that it takes on a momentum of its own, destroying an ever-increasing number of satellites which only grows the cloud of swirling high-velocity debris to the point where Low Earth Orbit becomes too dangerous to operate in.

(Image credit: NASA)

There are half a millions pieces of debris the size of a marble or larger, and about 100 million pieces of debris 1mm or larger. According to NASA, several space shuttle windows had to be replaced over damage caused by debris that was later determined to be flecks of paint.

"In fact, millimeter-sized orbital debris represents the highest mission-ending risk to most robotic spacecraft operating in low Earth orbit," NASA says. If Low Earth Orbit becomes a swirling hurricane of metal shrapnel travelling at 17,500 mph, then attempting to pass through it becomes impossible. 

You have to accelerate as you ascend into Low Earth Orbit, so essentially any kind of spacecraft or satellite you try to put up into orbit in a post-Kessler environment would have to do so under a bullet-hell of debris travelling hundreds or even thousands of miles an hour faster than whatever you're trying to put into orbit. 

If that then gets destroyed and torn up by space debris in the process, you just end up creating more space debris you have to contend with the next time you attempt to put something into orbit.

Eventually, you simply can't put anything new into orbit any more than you can stay dry in a rain storm by avoiding all the individual drops of rain. We'd have to wait for that cloud of debris to eventually fall into the Earth's atmosphere and burn up, a process that could take many decades.

Former NATO Secretary General Anders Fogh Rasmussen wrote in the Financial Times on Thursday that regulation is desperately needed in order to keep space safe for humanity in the future.

"Unless we change course," he writes, "the opportunities of space to improve our lives on earth could be closed off for generations."

The US Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has sued to block Nvidia's $40bn acquisition of Arm over concerns that the combined firm would stifle competition as well as innovation in the global chip market.

The agency argues that the proposed vertical deal would give Nvidia control over the computing technology and designs that rival firms rely upon to develop their own competing chips.

The FTC's complaint goes even further though as it alleges that the combined firm would have both the means and incentive to “stifle innovative next-generation technologies” such as those that are used to run datacenters as well as the driver-assistance systems used in cars.

Director of the FTC's Bureau of Competition, Holly Vedova provided further insight on the agency's lawsuit in a press release, saying:

“The FTC is suing to block the largest semiconductor chip merger in history to prevent a chip conglomerate from stifling the innovation pipeline for next-generation technologies. Tomorrow’s technologies depend on preserving today’s competitive, cutting-edge chip markets. This proposed deal would distort Arm’s incentives in chip markets and allow the combined firm to unfairly undermine Nvidia’s rivals. The FTC’s lawsuit should send a strong signal that we will act aggressively to protect our critical infrastructure markets from illegal vertical mergers that have far-reaching and damaging effects on future innovations.”

Stifling competition

Unlike Nvidia which develops and makes its own chips for GPUs, data centers and computer-assisted driving, Softbank-owned and UK-based Arm does not supply or market finished chips or devices.

Instead, Arm creates and licenses microprocessor designs and architectures to other technology companies including Nvidia as well as its rivals. Chips made using its designs are found in a wide variety of modern computing devices from smartphones to tablets to driver-assistance systems to servers in large datacenters.

As Arm's technology enables competition between Nvidia and its competitors in several markets, the FTC's compliant alleges that the proposed merger would give Nvidia the ability to use its control of the technology to undermine its competitors and reduce competition which would ultimately lead to reduced product quality, higher prices and less choice. However, the reason the FTC is getting involved is because it believes that the merger will harm millions of Americans who benefit from Arm-based products.

We'll have to see how the lawsuit turns out but the proposed deal has also faced scrutiny from the UK's competition watchdog as well as from rival chip maker Qualcomm.

In a shocking revelation, cybersecurity researchers have discovered over 200 bugs in Wi-Fi routers made by nine popular manufacturers, suggesting that millions of the most common devices around the world are vulnerable to attacks.

Researchers from IoT Inspector and CHIP examined devices from Asus, AVM, D-Link, Netgear, Edimax, TP-Link, Synology, and Linksys, and found a total of 226 potential security vulnerabilities.

"The test negatively exceeded all expectations for secure home and small business routers. Not all vulnerabilities are equally critical - but at the time of the test, all devices showed significant security vulnerabilities that could make a hacker’s life much easier," said Florian Lukavsky, CTO of IoT Inspector.

The two devices with the most number of vulnerabilities were the The TP-Link Archer AX6000 with 32 vulnerabilities, and the Synology RT-2600ac with 30 vulnerabilities.

Greater accountability

According to the researchers, some of the security issues were detected across multiple devices, generally because of outdated software. They fathom that, since integrating a new kernel into the firmware is a costly affair, all of the tested routers were running dated versions of the Linux kernel.

Similarly, additional services, such as multimedia streaming or VPN, were usually found to be powered by outdated software.

When contacted by the researchers, all of the manufacturers quickly responded by releasing firmware patches to resolve the issues. 

The researchers also used the opportunity to point out that the coalition agreement of the new German government seeks to hold manufacturers accountable for vulnerabilities in their products.

“This increases the pressure on the industry to continuously secure products in order to avoid immense claims for damages,” point out the researchers.
