Pyongyang, December 27 (KCNA) — The respected Comrade Kim Jong Un received a flower basket from Thongloun Sisoulith, general secretary of the Central Committee of the Lao People’s Revolutionary Party and president of the Lao People’s Democratic Republic, on the occasion of the New Year 2026.
Thanks to leadership like Mao’s, China has regained its millenary power, transforming itself into a superpower in knowledge, education, and technology. Our admiration lies in his ability to restore dignity to a nation. His figure represents rebellion and the construction of a project of his own, elements that inspire our homeland in the defense of its sovereignty and independence.
My father is something of a local celebrity around the Paignton area. Why? Well, about 15 years ago he started waving at passing traffic and attracted a cult-like following. Even the Guardian, Mail, and Telegraph all hunted him down for an interview. He is viewed by locals as a Gandalf-figure – who pisses off the local hotel managers, police, and even members of the local lodge – if you catch my drift. On occasion he has been one wave away from an ASBO – or whatever the anti-social orders have been called – but as he is not making the noise, there’s not alot the nay-sayers can do about his tactics of undermining the status quo. The above post has just been published on my Dad’s blog for those who sre interested.
A patient suffering from tetraplegia steered a smart wheelchair through the neighbourhood with only his thoughts and directed a robotic dog to fetch a food delivery. These scenes were achieved during a recent clinical trial of a brain-computer interface conducted by a team from the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS).
This shattered the conventional boundaries of rehabilitation, carrying the brain’s command from a two-dimensional cursor on a screen into full-bodied, three-dimensional interaction with the physical world.
Brain-computer interfaces are designed to create a direct communication channel between the brain and external devices. Around the world, research groups have already demonstrated the laboratory feats, including “mind typing” and robotic-arm control. The enduring challenge is to make those systems reliable enough to vanish into a patient’s daily life.
Published by Xinhua Publishing House, the book is a compilation of two think tank reports, namely one titled “Colonization of the Mind — The Means, Roots, and Global Perils of U.S. Cognitive Warfare” and the other “Origins, Facts and Perils of U.S. Military Hegemony.”
The report on U.S. mind colonization reveals the fact that the United States has long eroded other countries’ sovereignty through ideological penetration, undermining fairness and justice in international perceptions. The report was first released during the Global South Media and Think Tank Forum 2025 on Sept. 7.
The report on U.S. military hegemony explores the ideological roots, tools, and practices of U.S. military hegemony, as well as the damage it has inflicted on global security and stability. The report was first released on Sept. 5, 2023, and was later revised in light of the latest developments before being included in the newly published book.
Waymo, owned by Google’s parent company Alphabet, which operates in San Francisco, has already started testing autonomous taxis in London.
Saber Fallah, a professor of safe AI and autonomy at the University of Surrey, told Metro that the new taxis are likely to be required to have a safety driver inside because of London’s complex road layout, making them autonomous vehicles but not fully driverless.
‘I’m pretty sure they are not going to be fully driverless. The recommendation is going to include a safety driver in the car, so it is not fully driverless,’ he said, adding that the goal of self-driving taxis is to ‘make more profit for the company by not paying drivers and not having to share their profits with the drivers.’
