Pornhub's parent company Aylo and its affiliates settled a lawsuit with the FTC and Utah that alleged the company "deceived users" about abuse material on the site.

Pornhub Will Pay $5 Million Over Allegations of Hosting Child Sexual Abuse Material


The Federal Trade Commission announced Wednesday that Pornhub and its parent company Aylo settled a lawsuit filed by the Federal Trade Commission and the state of Utah.

The FTC and Utah’s attorney general claimed that Pornhub and its affiliates “deceived users by doing little to block tens of thousands of videos and photos featuring child sexual abuse material (CSAM) and nonconsensual material (NCM) despite claiming that this content was ‘strictly prohibited,’” the FTC wrote in a press release.

“As part of a proposed order settling the allegations, Pornhub’s operators, Aylo and its affiliated companies (collectively Aylo), will be required to establish a program to prevent the distribution of CSAM and NCM on its websites and pay a $5 million penalty to the state of Utah,” it said.

“This settlement reaffirms and enhances Aylo’s efforts to prevent the publication of child sexual abuse material (CSAM) and non-consensual material (NCM) on its platforms,” a spokesperson for Aylo told 404 Media said in a statement. “Aylo is committed to maintaining the highest standards of safety and compliance on its platforms. While the FTC and Utah DCP [Division of Consumer Protection] have raised serious concerns and allege that some of Aylo’s user generated content websites made available videos and photos containing CSAM and NCM, this agreement strengthens the comprehensive safeguards that have been in place for years on Aylo platforms. These measures reflect Aylo’s ongoing commitment to constantly evolving compliance efforts. Importantly, this settlement resolves the matter with no admission of wrongdoing while reaffirming Aylo’s commitment to the highest standards of platform safety and compliance.”

In addition to the penalty fee, according to the proposed settlement, Aylo would have to “implement a program” to prevent CSAM and non-consensual imagery from being disseminated on its sites, establish a system “to verify that people who appear in videos or photos on its websites are adults and have provided consent to the sexual conduct as well as its production and publication,” remove content uploaded before those programs until Aylo “verifies that the individuals participating in those videos were at least 18 at the time the content was created and consented to the sexual conduct and its production and publication,” post a notice on its website about the FTC and Utah’s allegations, and implement “a comprehensive privacy and information security program to address the privacy and security issues detailed in the complaint.”

Pornhub Is Now Blocked In Almost All of the U.S. South
As of today, three more states join the list of 17 that can’t access Pornhub because of age verification laws.

Aylo already does much of this. Pornhub overhauled its content and moderation practices starting in 2020, after Visa, Mastercard and Discover stopped servicing the site and its network following allegations of CSAM and sex trafficking. It purged hundreds of thousands of videos from its sites in early 2020 and registered with the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC).

In 2024, Pornhub started requiring proof of consent from every single person who appeared in content on the platform.

“The resolution reached involved enhancements to existing measures but did not introduce any new substantive requirements that were not either already in place or in progress,” Aylo’s spokesperson said. “This settlement resolves the investigation and underscores Aylo's commitment to robust safety protocols that should be applied broadly across all websites publishing user generated content. Aylo supports vigorous enforcement against CSAM and NCM, and encourages the FTC and Utah DCP to extend their initiative to protect the public across the broader internet, adult and mainstream, fostering a safer online environment for everyone. Throughout the investigation, Aylo worked to cooperatively resolve the concerns raised by the FTC and Utah DCP.”

The complaint from Utah and the FTC focuses largely on content that appeared on Pornhub prior to 2020, and includes allegations against several of the 100 different websites owned by Alyo—then Mindgeek, prior to the company’s 2023 acquisition by Ethical Capital Partners—and its affiliates. For example, the complaint claims the website operators identified CSAM on the sites KeezMovies, SpankWire, and ExtremeTube with titles such as “Brunette Girl was Raped,” “Drunken passed out young niece gets a creampie,” “Amateur teen after party and fun passed out sex realty [sic] submissive,” “Girl getting gangraped,” and “Giving her a mouthful while she’s passed out drunk.”

“Rather than remove the videos, Defendants merely edited their titles to remove any suggestion that they contained CSAM or NCM. As a result, consumers continued to view and download these videos,” the complaint states. The FTC and Utah don’t specify in the complaint whether the people performing in those videos, or any of the videos mentioned, were actually adults participating in consensual roleplay scenarios or if the titles and tags were literal.

The discussions between then-Mindgeek compliance staff outlined in the complaint show some of the conversations moderators were allegedly having around 2020 about how to purge the site of unverified content. “A senior member of Defendants’ Compliance team stated in an internal email that ‘none of it is enough,’ ‘this is just a start,’ and ‘we need to block millions more’ because ‘the site is FULL of non-compliant content,’” the complaint states. “Another senior employee responded: ‘it’s over’ and ‘we’re fucked.’”

The complaint also mentions the Girls Do Porn sex-trafficking ring, which Pornhub hosted content for and acted as a Pornhub Premium partner until the ring was indicted on federal trafficking charges in 2019. In 2023, Pornhub reached a settlement with the US Attorney General’s office after an FBI investigation, and said it “deeply regrets” hosting that content.

AI Generated 'Boring History' Videos Are Flooding YouTube and Drowning Out Real History


As I do most nights, I was listening to YouTube videos to fall asleep the other night. Sometime around 3 a.m., I woke up because the video YouTube was autoplaying started going “FEEEEEEEE.” The video was called “Boring History for Sleep | How Medieval PEASANTS Survived the Coldest Nights and more.” It is two hours long, has 2.3 million views, and, an hour and 15 minutes into the video, the AI-generated voice glitched.

“In the end, Anne Boleyn won a kind of immortality. Not through her survival, but through her indelible impact on history. FEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE,” the narrator says in a fake British accent. “By the early 1770s, the American colonies simmered like a pot left too long over a roaring fire,” it continued.


0:00
/0:15

The video was from a channel I hadn’t seen before, called “Sleepless Historian.” I took my headphones out, didn’t think much of it at the time, rolled over, and fell back asleep.

The next night, when I went to pick a new video to fall asleep to, my YouTube homepage was full of videos from Sleepless Historian and several similar-sounding channels like Boring History Bites, History Before Sleep, The Snoozetorian, Historian Sleepy, and Dreamoria. Lots of these videos nominally check the boxes for what I want from something to fall asleep to. Almost all of them are more than three hours long, and they are about things I don’t know much about. Some video titles include “Unusual Medieval Cures for Common Illnesses,” “The Entire History of the American Frontier,” “What It Was Like to Visit a BR0THEL in Pompeii,” and “What GETTING WASTED Was Like in Medieval Times.” One of the channels has even been livestreaming this "history" 24/7 for weeks.

In the daytime, when I was not groggy and half asleep, it quickly became obvious to me that all of these videos are AI generated, and that they are part of a sophisticated and growing AI slop content ecosystem that is flooding YouTube, is drowning out human-made content created by real anthropologists and historians who spend weeks or months researching, fact-checking, scripting, recording, and editing their videos, and are quite literally rewriting history with surface-level, automated drek that the YouTube algorithm delivers to people. YouTube has said it will demonetize or otherwise crack down on “mass produced” videos, but it is not clear whether that has had any sort of impact on the proliferation of AI-generated videos on the platform, and none of the people I spoke to for this article have noticed any change.

“It’s completely shocking to me,” Pete Kelly, who runs the popular History Time YouTube channel, told me in a phone interview. “It used to be enough to spend your entire life researching, writing, narrating, editing, doing all these things to make a video, but now someone can come along and they can do the same thing in a day instead of it taking six months, and the videos are not accurate. The visuals they use are completely inaccurate often. And I’m fearful because this is everywhere.”

“I absolutely hate it, primarily the fact that they’re historically inaccurate,” Kelly added. “So it worries me because it’s just the same things being regurgitated over and over again. When I’m researching something, I go straight to the academic journals and books and places that are offline, basically. But these AI videos are just sort of repeating things that are on the internet and just because it’s on the internet doesn’t mean it’s accurate. You end up with a very simplified version of the past, and we need to be looking at the past and it needs to be nuanced and we need to be aware of where the evidence or an argument comes from.”

Kelly has been making history videos on YouTube since 2017 and has amassed 1.2 million YouTube subscribers because of the incredibly in-depth research he does for his feature-length videos. He said for an average long-form video, he will read 20 books, lots of journal articles, and will often travel to archaeological sites. It’s impossible to say for sure, but he has considered the possibility that some of these AI videos are modeled on his videos, and that the AI tools being used to create them could have been trained on his work. The soothing British accent used in many of the AI-generated videos I’ve seen is similar to Kelly’s actual voice. “A lot of AI basically scraped YouTube in order to develop all of the ways people make videos now,” he said. “So I mean, maybe it scraped my voice.”

He said that he has begun to get comments accusing his videos of being AI-generated, and his channel now says “no AI is used in this channel.” He has also set up a separate channel where he speaks directly to camera rather than narrating over other footage.

“​​People listen to the third-person, disembodied narration voice and assume that it’s AI now, and that’s disheartening,” he said. “I get quite a lot of comments from people thinking that I’m AI, so I’m like, if you think I’m AI I’m going to have to just put myself in the videos a little more. Pretty much everyone I know is doing something as a result of this AI situation, which is crazy in itself. We’ve all had to react. The thing I’m doing is I’m appearing more in videos. I’m speaking to the camera because I think people are going to be more interested in an actual human voice.”





Kelly said the number of views he gets on an average video has plateaued or dropped alongside the rise of AI-generated content that competes with his, which is something I heard from other creators, too. As a viewer, I have noticed that I now have to wade through tons of AI-generated spam in order to find high-quality videos.

“I have seen, and my fellow history creators—there’s quite a few of us, we all talk to each other—we’ve all seen quite a noticeable drop in views that seems to coincide exactly with this swarm of AI-generated, three-hour, four-hour videos where they’re making videos about the exact same things we make videos about, and for the average person, I don’t think they really care that much whether it’s AI or not,” he said.

Kelly has started putting himself in his videos to show he's a real person

A few months ago, in our Behind the Blog segment, I wrote about a YouTube channel called Ancient Americas, run by an amateur anthropologist named Pete. In that blog, I worried about whether AI slop creators would try to emulate creators like Pete, who clearly take great pride in researching and filming their videos. Ancient Americas releases about one 45-minute video per month about indigenous cultures from the Western Hemisphere. Each of his videos features a substantive bibliography and works cited document, which explains the books, scientific papers, documentaries, museums, and experts he sources his research from. Every image and visual he uses is credited with both where it came from and what license he’s using. Through his videos, I have learned an incredible amount about cultures I didn’t know existed, like the Wari, the Zapotecs, the Calusa, and many more. Pete told me in an email that he has noticed the AI history video trend on YouTube as well, but “I can’t say much about how accurate these videos are as a whole because I tend to steer clear of them. Life is far too short for AI.”

“Of the few I've watched, I would say that the information tends to be vague and surface level and the generated AI images of indigenous history that they show range from uncanny to cringe. Not surprisingly, I'm not a fan of such content but thankfully, these videos don't seem to get many views,” he said. “The average YouTube viewer is much more discerning than they get credit for. Most of them see the slop for what it is. On the other hand, will that always be the case? That remains to be seen. AI is only going to get better. Ultimately, whether creators like me sink or swim is up to the viewing public and the YouTube algorithm.”

Pete is correct in that a lot of the AI-generated videos don’t have a lot of views, but that’s quickly changing. Sleepless Historian has 614,000 subscribers, posts a multi-hour video every single day, and has published three videos that have more than a million views. I found several other AI-generated history channels that have more than 100,000 subscribers. Many of them are reposting the same videos that Sleepless Historian publishes, but many of them are clearly generating their own content.

Every night before I go to sleep, I open YouTube and I see multiple AI-generated history videos being served to me, and some YouTube commenters have noticed that they are increasingly being fed AI-generated history videos. People on Reddit have noticed that the comments under these videos are a mix of what appear to be real people saying they are grateful for the content and a mix of bots posting fake sob stories. For example, a recent Sleepless Historian video has comments from “History-Snooze,” “The_HumbleHistory” “RealSleepyHistorianOfficial,” “SleeplessOrren,” “SleepyHistory-n9k,” “Drizzle and Dreamy History of the Past,” “TheSleepyNavigator-d6b5c,” “Historyforsleepy168,” and a handful of other channels that post the exact same type of content (and often repost the exact same videos).

In one video, an account called Sleepymore (which posts AI-generated history videos) posted “It’s 1 a.m. in Kyiv. I’m a Ukrainian soldier on night watch. Tonight is quiet—no sirens, just silence. I just wanted to say: your videos make me feel a little less alone, a little less afraid. Thank you.” An account called SleeplessHistorian2 responded to say “great comment.” Both of these accounts do nothing but post AI-generated history videos and spam comments on other AI-generated history videos. The email address associated with Sleepless Historian” did not respond to a request for comment from 404 Media.

The French Whisperer, a human ASMRtist who makes very high quality science and history videos that I have been falling asleep to for years, told me that he has also noticed that he’s competing with AI-generated videos, and that the videos are “hard to miss.”

“It is always hard to precisely determine what factors make a YouTube channel grow or shrink, but mine has seen its number of views drop dramatically in the past 6-12 months (like -60%) and for the first time in years I barely get discovered at all by new viewers,” he said. “I used to gain maybe 100-200 subscribers per day until 2024, now it is flat. I think only my older viewers still come to my videos, but for others my channel is now hidden under a pile of AI slop that all people who are into history/science + sleep or relaxation content see in their search results.”

“I noticed this trend of slop content in my niche starting around 2 years ago,” he said. “Viewers warned me that there were channels that were either AI-assisted (like a real person reading AI scripts), or traditional slop (a real person paraphrasing wikipedia or existing articles), basically replicating the kind of content I make, but publishing 1 or 2 hours of content per day. Then it became full AI a few months ago, it went from a handful of channels to dozens (maybe hundreds? I have no idea), and since then this type of content has flooded YouTube.”

Another channel I sometimes listen to has purposefully disabled the captions on their videos to make it harder for AI bots to steal from: “Captions have unfortunately been disabled due to AI bots copying (plagiarizing) my scripts,” a notice on YouTube reads.

All of this is annoying and threatening on a few different levels. To some extent, when I’m looking for something to fall asleep to, the actual content sometimes feels like it doesn’t matter. But I’ve noticed that, over time, as I fall asleep listening to history podcasts, I do retain a lot of what I learn, and if I hear something interesting as I’m dozing off, I will often go research that thing more when I’m awake and alert. I personally would prefer to listen to videos made by real people who know what they are talking about, and are benefiting from my consumption of their work. There is also the somewhat dystopian fact that, because of these videos, there are millions of people being unwittingly lulled to sleep by robots.

Historians who have studied the AI summaries of historical events have found that they “flatten” history: “Prose expression is not some barrier to the communication of historical knowledge, to be cleared by any means, but rather an integral aspect of that communication,” Mack Penner, a postdoctoral fellow in the Department of History at the University of Calgary, argued last year. “Outsourcing the finding, the synthesizing, and the communicating to AI is to cede just about the whole craft to the machines.”

As YouTube and other platforms are spammed with endless AI-generated videos, they threaten not just to drown out the types of high-quality videos that The French Whisperer, Ancient Americas, and other historians, anthropologists, and well-meaning humans are making. They also threaten to literally rewrite history—or people’s understanding of it—with all of the biases imbued into AI by its training material and, increasingly, by the willful manipulation of the companies that own these tools.

All of the creators I spoke to said that, ultimately, they think the quality of their videos is going to win out, and that people will hopefully continue to seek out their videos, whether that’s on YouTube or elsewhere. They each have Patreons, and The French Whisperer said that he has purposefully “diversified away from YouTube” because of forced ads, settings that distort the sound of softly spoken videos, and the 30 percent cut YouTube takes from its membership program. But Kelly said he believes that it has become much harder to break into this world, because "when I started, I was just competing against other humans. I don't really know how you can compete against computers."

The French Whisperer still posts his videos on YouTube, but said that it is increasingly not a reliable platform for him: “I concluded some time ago that I would better vote with my feet and disengage from YouTube, which I could afford to do because by chance my content is very audio oriented. I bet everything I could on podcasts and music apps like Spotify and Apple, on Patreon, and on various apps I sell licenses to,” he said. “I have launched different podcasts derived from my original channel, and even begun to transform my YouTube channel into a podcast show—you probably noticed that I promote these other outlets at the beginning of almost every single video. As a result of my growth elsewhere and the drop on YouTube, the bulk of my audience (like 80-90%) is now on other sites than YouTube, and these ones have not been contaminated by AI slop so far. In a nutshell, I already had reasons to treat YouTube as a secondary platform before, and the fact that it became trashier with the AI content is just one more.”

“An entire niche can be threatened overnight by AI, or YouTube's policies, or your access to monetization, and this only reinforces my belief that this is not a reasonable career choice. Unless you have millions of followers and can look at it as an athlete would—earn as much as you can, pay your taxes, and live on your investments for the rest of your life when your career inevitably ends.”

Pete from Ancient Americas, meanwhile, said he’s just going to keep making videos and hope for the best.

“It does me no good to fret and obsess over something I have no control over. AI may be polluting the river but I still have to swim in it or sink. Second, I have a lot of faith in what I do and I love doing it,” he said. “At the moment, I don't think AI can create a video the way that I can. I take the research very seriously and try to get as much information as possible. I try to include details that the viewer would have a very difficult time finding on their own; things that are beyond the Wikipedia article or a cursory Google search. I also use ancient artifacts and artworks from a culture to show the viewer how the culture expressed itself and I believe that this is VERY important when you want your audience to connect with ancient people. I've never seen AI do this. It's always a slideshow of crappy AI images. The only thing I can do in an AI world is to keep the ship sailing forward.”

Kelly, who runs History Time, says he sees it as a real problem. “It’s worrying to me just for humanity,” he said. “Not to get too high brow, but it’s not good for the state of knowledge in the world. It makes me worry for the future.”




One ROM: the Latest Incarnation of the Software Defined ROM


A hand holding a One ROM with a Commodore 64 in the background

Retrocomputers need ROMs, but they’re just so read only. Enter the latest incarnation of [Piers]’s One ROM to rule them all, now built with a RP2350, because the newest version is 5V capable. This can replace the failing ROMs in your old Commodore gear with this sweet design on a two-layer PCB, using a cheap microcontroller.

[Piers] wanted to use the RP2350 from the beginning but there simply wasn’t space on the board for the 23 level shifters which would have been required. But now that the A4 stepping adds 5 V tolerance [Piers] has been able to reformulate his design.

The C64 in the demo has three different ROMs: the basic ROM, kernel ROM, and character ROM. A single One ROM can emulate all three. The firmware is performance critical, it needs to convert requests on the address pins to results on the data bus just as fast as it can and [Piers] employs a number of tricks to meet these requirements.

The PCB layout for the RP2350 required extensive changes from the larger STM32 in the previous version. Because the RP2350 uses large power and ground pads underneath the IC this area, which was originally used to drop vias to the other side of the board, was no longer available for signal routing. And of course [Piers] is constrained by the size of the board needing to fit in the original form factor used by the C64.

The One ROM code is available over on GitHub, and the accompanying video from [Piers] is an interesting look into the design process and how tradeoffs and compromises and hacks are made in order to meet functional requirements.

LockBit 5.0 : segnali di una nuova e possibile “Rinascita”?


LockBit rappresenta una delle più longeve e strutturate ransomware gang degli ultimi anni, con un modello Ransomware-as-a-Service (RaaS)che ha segnato in maniera profonda l’ecosistema criminale.

A seguito dell’operazione internazionale Operation Cronos, condotta a febbraio 2024 e che ha portato al sequestro di numerose infrastrutture e alla compromissione dei pannelli di gestione affiliati, il gruppo sembrava destinato a un declino irreversibile. Tuttavia, nelle ultime settimane, nuove evidenze in rete onion stanno alimentando ipotesi di una resurrezione del brand LockBit, sotto la sigla LockBit 5.0.

Breve storia del gruppo


  • 2019– Comparsa delle prime varianti di LockBit, caratterizzate da automatismi di propagazione rapida in ambienti Windows e tecniche avanzate di cifratura.
  • 2020-2021– Consolidamento del modello RaaS e forte espansione nella scena del cybercrime; introduzione dei data leak site come strumento di doppia estorsione.
  • 2022– LockBit diventa uno dei gruppi più attivi a livello globale, rilasciando le versioni LockBit 2.0 e 3.0, con implementazioni in linguaggi multipli e payload cross-platform.
  • 2023– Ulteriore diversificazione con payload in Go e Linux, e campagne mirate verso supply chain e settori critici.
  • 2024 (Operazione Cronos)– Coordinata da Europol e FBI, l’operazione porta al sequestro di oltre 30 server, domini onion e strumenti interni. Per la prima volta viene distribuito un decryptor pubblico su larga scala.


Evidenze recenti


Analizzando il loro sito underground, viene mostrato un portale accessibile tramite rete onion con brand LockBit 5.0, che adotta lo stesso schema di queue panel già osservato in precedenti versioni del gruppo. L’interfaccia ripropone loghi riconducibili a Monero (XMR), Bitcoin (BTC) e Zcash (ZEC) come metodi di pagamento, indicando che il modello di estorsione rimarrebbe centrato su criptovalute ad alto grado di anonimato.

Il messaggio“You have been placed in a queue, awaiting forwarding to the platform”richiama i meccanismi classici dei pannelli di affiliazione LockBit, dove l’utente (o affiliato) viene instradato verso il backend operativo.

Analisi tecnica e possibili scenari


L’apparizione di LockBit 5.0 può essere interpretata secondo tre scenari principali:

  1. Tentativo di resurrezione reale: una parte del core team non colpita da Operation Cronos potrebbe aver ricostruito un’infrastruttura ridotta, puntando a reclutare nuovamente affiliati.
  2. Operazione di inganno (honeypot): non si esclude la possibilità che si tratti di un’esca creata da ricercatori o forze dell’ordine per monitorare traffico e identificare affiliati superstiti.
  3. Rebranding opportunistico: attori terzi, approfittando del “marchio” LockBit, potrebbero riutilizzarlo per ottenere visibilità e autorevolezza immediata nella scena underground.


Conclusioni


Sebbene al momento non vi siano prove concrete di nuove compromissioni riconducibili a LockBit 5.0, la presenza di un portale onion con brand ufficiale alimenta speculazioni su una possibile rinascita del gruppo. Sarà cruciale monitorare:

  • eventuali nuove campagne di intrusione con TTP riconducibili al passato di LockBit,
  • leak site attivi con pubblicazione di vittime,
  • segnali di reclutamento nel dark web.

La vicenda dimostra ancora una volta la resilienza e la capacità di adattamento delle cyber-gang, che spesso riescono a rigenerarsi anche dopo operazioni di law enforcement di portata globale.

United Healthcare CEO murder suspect Luigi Mangione is not, in fact, modeling floral button-downs for Shein.#LuigiMangione #shein #AI


Shein Used Luigi Mangione’s AI-Generated Face to Sell a Shirt


A listing on ultra-fast-fashion e-commerce site Shein used an AI-generated image of Luigi Mangione to sell a floral button-down t-shirt.

Mangione—the prime suspect in the December 2024 murder of United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson—is being held at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, last I checked, and is not modeling for Shein.

I first saw the Mangione Shein listing on the culture and news X account Popcrave, which posted the listing late Tuesday evening.

Shein removed the listing on Wednesday, but someone saved it on the Internet Archive before Shein took it down. "The image in question was provided by a third-party vendor and was removed immediately upon discovery," Shein told Newsweek in a statement. "We have stringent standards for all listings on our platform. We are conducting a thorough investigation, strengthening our monitoring processes, and will take appropriate action against the vendor in line with our policies." Shein provided the same comment to 404 Media.

The item, sold by the third-party brand Manfinity, had the description “Men's New Spring/Summer Short Sleeve Blue Ditsy Floral White Shirt, Pastoral Style Gentleman Shirt For Everyday Wear, Family Matching Mommy And Me (3 Pieces Are Sold Separately).”

The Manfinity brand makes a lot of Shein stuff using AI-generated models, like these gym bros selling PUSH HARDER t-shirts and gym sweats and this very tough guy wearing a “NAH, I’M GOOD” tee. AI-generated models are all over Shein, and seems especially popular with listings featuring babies and toddlers. AI models in fashion are becoming more mainstream; in July, Vogue ran advertisements for Guess featuring AI-generated women selling the brand’s summer collection.

Last year, artists sued Shein, alleging the Chinese e-commerce giant scraped the internet using AI and stole their designs, and it’s been well-documented that fast fashion sites use bots to identify popular themes and memes from social media to put them on their own listings. Mangione merch and anything related to the case—including remixes of the United Healthcare logo and the “Deny, Defend, Depose” line allegedly found on the bullet—went wild in the weeks following Thompson’s murder; Manfinity might have generated what seemed popular on social media (Mangione’s smiling face) and automatically put it on a shirt listing. Based on the archived listing, it worked: A lot of people managed to grab a limited edition Shein Luigi Ditsy Floral before it was removed: According to the archived version of the listing, it was sold out of all sizes except for XXL.




Field Guide to North American Crop Irrigation


Human existence boils down to one brutal fact: however much food you have, it’s enough to last for the rest of your life. Finding your next meal has always been the central organizing fact of life, and whether that meal came from an unfortunate gazelle or the local supermarket is irrelevant. The clock starts ticking once you finish a meal, and if you can’t find the next one in time, you’ve got trouble.

Working around this problem is basically why humans invented agriculture. As tasty as they may be, gazelles don’t scale well to large populations, but it’s relatively easy to grow a lot of plants that are just as tasty and don’t try to run away when you go to cut them down. The problem is that growing a lot of plants requires a lot of water, often more than Mother Nature provides in the form of rain. And that’s where artificial irrigation comes into the picture.

We’ve been watering our crops with water diverted from rivers, lakes, and wells for almost as long as we’ve been doing agriculture, but it’s only within the last 100 years or so that we’ve reached a scale where massive pieces of infrastructure are needed to get the job done. Above-ground irrigation is a big business, both in terms of the investment farmers have to make in the equipment and the scale of the fields it turns from dry, dusty patches of dirt into verdant crops that feed the world. Here’s a look at the engineering behind some of the more prevalent methods of above-ground irrigation here in North America.

Crop Circles


Center-pivot irrigation machines are probably the most recognizable irrigation methods, both for their sheer size — center-pivot booms can be a half-mile long or more — and for the distinctive circular and semi-circular crop patterns they result in. Center-pivot irrigation has been around for a long time, and while it represents a significant capital cost for the farmer, both in terms of the above-ground machinery and the subsurface water supply infrastructure that needs to be installed, the return on investment time can be as low as five years, depending on the crop.

Effective use of pivot irrigation starts with establishing a water supply to the pivot location. Generally, this will be at the center of a field, allowing the boom to trace out a circular path. However, semi-circular layouts with the water supply near the edge of the field or even in one corner of a square field are also common. The source must also be able to supply a sufficient amount of water; depending on the emitter heads selected, the boom can flow approximately 1,000 gallons per minute.

The pivot tower is next. It’s generally built on a sturdy concrete pad, although there are towable pivot machines where the center tower is on wheels. The tower needs to stand tall enough that the rotating boom clears the crop when it’s at its full height, which can be substantial for crops like corn. Like almost all parts of the machine, the tower is constructed of galvanized steel to resist corrosion and to provide a bit of anodic protection to the underlying metal.

The tower is positioned over a riser pipe that connects to the water supply and is topped by a swivel fitting to change the water flow from vertical to horizontal and to let the entire boom rotate around the tower. For electrically driven booms, a slip ring will also be used to transfer power and control signals from the fixed control panel on the tower along the length of the boom. The slip ring connector is located in a weather-tight enclosure mounted above the exact center of the riser pipe.

The irrigation boom is formed from individual sections of pipe, called spans. In the United States, each span is about 180 feet long, a figure that makes it easy to build a system that will fit within the Public Land Survey System (PLSS), a grid-based survey system based on even divisions called sections, one mile on a side and 640 acres in area. These are divided down into half-, quarter-, and finally quarter-quarter sections, which are a quarter mile on a side and cover 40 acres. A boom built from seven spans will be about 1,260 feet long and will be able to irrigate a 160-acre quarter-section, which is a half-mile on a side.

The pipe for each span is usually made from galvanized steel, but aluminum is also sometimes used. Because of the flow rates, large-diameter pipe is used, and it needs to be supported lest it sag when filled. To do this, the pipe is put into tension with a pair of truss rods that run the length of the span, connecting firmly to each end. The truss rods and the pipe are connected by a series of triangular trusses attached between the bottom of the pipe and the truss rods, bending the pipe into a gentle arch. The outer end of each span is attached to a wheeled tower, sized to support the pipe at the same height as the center tower. The boom is constructed by connecting spans to each other and to the center pivot using flexible elastomeric couplings, which allow each span some flexibility to adjust for the terrain of the field. Sprinkler heads (drops) are attached to the span by elbows that exit at the top of the pipe. These act as siphon breakers, preventing water from flowing out of the sprinkler heads once water flow in the boom stops.

Different sprinkler heads are typically used along the length of the boom, with lower flow rate heads used near the center pivot. Sprinkler heads are also often spaced further apart close to the pivot. Both of these limit the amount of water delivered to the field where the boom’s rotational speed is lower, to prevent crops at the center of the field from getting overwatered. Most booms also have an end gun, which is similar to the impulse sprinklers commonly used for lawn irrigation, but much bigger. The end gun can add another 100′ or more of coverage to the pivot, without the expense of another length of pipe. End guns are often used to extend coverage into the corners of square fields, to make better use of space that otherwise would go fallow. In this case, an electrically driven booster pump can be used to drive the end gun, but only when the controller senses that the boom is within those zones.

Most center-pivot machines are electrically driven, with a single motor mounted on each span’s tower. The motor drives both wheels through a gearbox and driveshaft. In electrically driven booms, only the outermost span rotates continuously. The motors on the inboard spans are kept in sync through a position-sensing switch that’s connected to the next-furthest-out span through mechanical linkages. When the outboard span advances, it eventually trips a microswitch that tells the motor on the inboard span to turn on. Once that span catches up to the outboard span, the motor turns off. The result is a ripple of movement that propagates along the boom in a wave.

While electrically driven center-pivot machines are popular, they do have significant disadvantages. Enterprising thieves often target them for copper theft; half a mile of heavy-gauge, multi-conductor cable sitting unattended in a field that could take hours for someone to happen upon is a tempting target indeed. To combat this, some manufacturers use hydrostatic drives, with hydraulic motors on each wheel and a powerful electric- or diesel-driven hydraulic pump at the pivot. Each tower’s wheels are controlled by a proportioning valve connected to the previous span via linkages, to run the motors faster when the span is lagging behind the next furthest-out tower.

Aside from theft deterrence, hydrostatic-drive pivots tend to be mechanically simpler and safer to work on, although it’s arguable that the shock hazard from the 480 VAC needed for the motors on electrically driven pivots is any less dangerous than hydraulic injection injuries from leaks. Speaking of leaks, hydrostatic pivots also pose an environmental hazard that electric rigs don’t; a hydraulic leak could potentially contaminate an entire field. To mitigate that risk, hydrostatic pivots generally use a non-toxic hydraulic fluid specifically engineered for pivots.

Occasionally, you’ll see center-pivot booms in fields that aren’t circular. Some rectangular fields can be irrigated with pivot-style booms that are set up with drive wheels at both ends. These booms travel up and down the length of a field with all motors running at the same speed. Generally, water is supplied via a suction hose dipping down from one end of the boom into an irrigation ditch or canal running alongside the field. At the end of the field, the boom reverses and heads back down the way it came. Alternatively, the boom can pivot 180 degrees at the end of the field and head back to the other end, tracing out a racetrack pattern. There are also towers where the wheels can swivel rather than being fixed perpendicularly to the boom; this setup allows individual spans or small groups to steer independently of the main boom, accommodating odd-shaped fields.
While pivot-irrigation is labor-efficient, it leaves quite a bit of land fallow. Many of these pivots use the end gun to get a few extra rows in each of the corner quadrants, increasing land use. Source: go_turk06, via Adobestock.

Rolling, Rolling, Rolling


While center-pivot machines are probably the ultimate in above-ground irrigation, they’re not perfect for every situation. They’re highly automated, but at great up-front cost, and even with special tricks, it’s still not possible to “square the circle” and make use of every bit of a rectangular field. For those fields, a lower-cost method like wheel line irrigation might be used. In this setup, lengths of pipe are connected to large spoked wheels about six feet in diameter. The pipe passes through the center of the wheel, acting as an axle. Spans of pipe are connected end-to-end on either side of a wheeled drive unit, forming a line the width of the field, up to a quarter-mile long, with the drive unit at the center of the line.

In use, the wheel line is rolled out into the field about 25 feet from the edge. When the line is in position, one end is connected to a lateral line installed along the edge of the field, which typically has fittings every 50 feet or so, or however far the sprinkler heads that are attached at regular intervals to the pipe cover. The sprinklers are usually impulse-type and attached to the pipe by weighted swivel fittings, so they always remain vertical no matter where the line stops in its rotation. The heads were traditionally made of brass or bronze for long wear and corrosion resistance, but thieves attracted to them for their scrap value have made plastic heads more common.

Despite their appearance, wheel lines do not continually move across the field. They need to be moved manually, often several times a day, by running the drive unit at the center of the line. This is generally powered by a small gasoline engine which rotates the pipe attached to either side, rolling the entire string across the field as a unit. Disconnecting the water, rolling the line, and reconnecting the line to the supply is quite labor-intensive, so it tends to be used only where labor is cheap.

Reeling In The Years


A method of irrigation that lives somewhere between the labor-intensive wheel line and the hands-off center-pivot is hose reel irrigation. It’s more commonly used for crop irrigation in Europe, but it does make an occasional appearance in US agriculture, particularly in fields where intensive watering all season long isn’t necessary.

As the name suggests, hose reel irrigation uses a large reel of flexible polyethylene pipe, many hundreds of feet in length. The reel is towed into the field, typically positioned in the center or at its edge. Large spades on the base of the reel are lowered into the ground to firmly anchor the reel before it’s connected to the water supply via hoses or pipes. The free end of the hose reel is connected to a tower-mounted gun, which is typically a high-flow impulse sprinkler. The gun tower is either wheeled or on skids, and a tractor is used to drag it out into the field away from the reel. Care is taken to keep the hose between rows to prevent damage to the crops.

Once the water is turned on, water travels down the hose and blasts out of the gun tower, covering a circle or semi-circle a hundred feet or more in diameter. The water pressure also turns a turbine inside the hose reel, which drives a gearbox that slowly winds the hose back onto the reel through a chain and sprocket drive. As the hose retracts, it pulls the gun back to the center of the field, evenly irrigating a large rectangular swath of the field. Depending on how the reel is set up, it can take a day or more for the gun to return to the reel, where an automatic shutoff valve shuts off the flow of water. The setup is usually moved to another point further down the field and the process is repeated until the whole field is irrigated.

The reel’s turbine and gearbox will wind the hose back up, pulling the gun in over a day or two. Source: Irrigation Hustle Continues, Bell’s Farming, via YouTube.
Although hose reels still need tending to, they’re nowhere near as labor-intensive as wheel lines. Farmers can generally look in on a reel setup once a day to make sure everything is running smoothly, and can often go several days between repositioning. Hose reels also have the benefit of being much easier to scale up and down than either center-pivot machines or wheel line; there are hose reels that store thousands of feet of large-diameter hose, and ones that are small enough for lawn irrigation that use regular garden hose and small impulse sprinklers.

Glaciers in Central Asia have remained intact even as other parts of the world have seen rapid glacial loss. A new study shows that may be changing.#TheAbstract


They Were Some of Earth’s Last Stable Glaciers. Now, They’re Melting.

Scientists have long been puzzled by the sturdy glaciers of the mountains of central Asia, which have inexplicably remained intact even as other glaciers around the world rapidly recede due to human-driven climate change. This mysterious resilience may be coming to an end, however.

The glaciers in this mountainous region—nicknamed the “Third Pole” because it boasts more ice than any place outside of the Arctic and Antarctic polar caps— have passed a tipping point that could set them on a path to accelerated mass loss, according to a new study. The end of this unusual glacial resilience, known as the Pamir-Karakoram Anomaly, would have major implications for the people who rely on the glaciers for water.

Scientists suggested that a recent decline in snowfall to the region is behind the shift, but it will take much more research to untangle the complicated dynamics of these remote and under-studied glaciers, according to a study published on Tuesday in Communications Earth & Environment.

“We have known about this anomaly since the early 2000s,” said study co-author Francesca Pellicciotti, a professor at the Institute of Science and Technology Austria (ISTA), in a call with 404 Media. “In the last 25 years, remote-sensing has really revolutionized Earth sciences in general, and also cryospheric sciences.”

“There is no definite answer yet for why those glaciers were quite stable,” said Achille Jouberton, a PhD student at ISTA who led the study, in the same call. “On average, at the regional scale, they were doing quite well in the last decade—until recently, which is what our study is showing.”

This space-down view of the world’s glaciers initially revealed the resilience of ice and snowpack in the Pamir-Karakoram region, but that picture started to change around 2018. Many of these glaciers have remained inaccessible to scientists due to political instabilities and other factors, leaving a multi-decade gap in the research about their curious strength.

To get a closer look, Jouberton and his colleagues established a site for monitoring snowfall, precipitation, and water resources at Kyzylsu Glacier in central Tajikistan in 2021. In addition to this fieldwork, the team developed sophisticated models to reconstruct changes within this catchment since 1999.

While the glaciers still look robust from the outside, the results revealed that snowfall has decreased and ice melt has increased. These interlinked trends have become more pronounced over the past seven years and were corroborated by conversations with locals. The decline in precipitation has made the glacier vulnerable to summer melting, as there is less snowpack to protect it from the heat.

“It will take a while before these glaciers start looking wasted, like the glaciers of the Alps, or North America, or South America,” said Pellicciotti.

While the team pinpointed a lack of snowfall as a key driver of the shift, it’s unclear why the region is experiencing reduced precipitation. The researchers are also unsure if a permanent threshold has been crossed, or if these changes could be chalked up to natural variation. They hope that the study, which is the first to warn of this possible tipping point, will inspire climate scientists, atmospheric scientists, and other interdisciplinary researchers to weigh in on future work.

“We don't know if this is just an inflection in the natural cycle, or if it's really the beginning of a trend that will go on for many years,” said Pellicciotti. “So we need to expand these findings, and extend them to a much longer period in the past and in the future.”

Resolving these uncertainties will be critical for communities in this region that rely on healthy snowpack and ice cover for their water supply. It also hints that even the last stalwart glacial holdouts on Earth are vulnerable to climate change.

“The major rivers are fed by snow and glacier melts, which are the dominant source of water in the summer months, which makes the glaciers very important,” concluded Jouberton. "There’s a large amount of people living downstream in all of the Central Asian countries that are really direct beneficiaries of those water and meltwater from the glaciers.”

Druetti (Pos): Tajani sbaglia su Global Sumud Flotilla, non può dire che l’iniziativa è inopportuna


“Le parole di Tajani sulla Global Sumud Flotilla sono deludenti, anche se non sorprendono viste le posizioni del nostro governo.” Lo dichiara la Segretaria Nazionale di Possibile Francesca Druetti, commentando la dichiarazione del ministro degli esteri secondo cui gli attivisti delle navi in partenza verso Gaza “non sono terroristi, ma si può dire di non essere d’accordo, che si tratti di iniziative inopportune.”
“Le parole di Tajani” — continua Druetti — sono appunto inopportune. Perché l’iniziativa della Global Sumud Flotilla andrebbe semplicemente sostenuta dal nostro governo. Perché i quattro obiettivi della spedizione (lo stop all’assedio, lo stop alla fame usata come arma, lo stop alla disumanizzazione della popolazione palestinese, lo stop al genocidio) non dovrebbero nemmeno essere oggetto di dibattito, ma la posizione minima di umanità da cui partire per trovare una soluzione politica e diplomatica.

“Di fronte a quanto succede ogni giorno a Gaza — conclude Druetti — alle decine di morti ogni giorno, alla carestia imposta da uno Stato contro cui continuiamo a vendere armi e a offrire supporto internazionale, l’invito alla moderazione di Tajani a Ben Gvir (che aveva minacciato di trattare gli attivisti alla stregua di terroristi una volta arrivati sulle coste di Gaza) è semplicemente ridicolo. Continuiamo a sostenere, in ogni modo, la Global Sumud Flotilla. Quando arriverà a destinazione, saremo tutte e tutti chiamati a mobilitarci, con i nostri corpi e con la pressione istituzionale.”
