The moment I knew: I’d lost his number and was about to switch off my old phone for good – then a text pinged

Guardian | positive | Subscription | Published: 16:00 Sep 05, 2026 (Eastern)

In 2002, following a breakup, the author met a local man named Matt at a nightclub in Portsmouth while visiting a friend. They exchanged numbers the next morning before the author returned to Sheffield to handle her relocation plans, but she subsequently realized the number had not saved properly in her phone. After accepting a promotion that kept her in Sheffield temporarily, the author ordered a new phone. Just as she was about to switch off her old phone for the final time, a text message from Matt arrived. The two reconnected, leading to a long-distance relationship, a subsequent move south, a marriage, three children, and a permanent move to Australia over the course of 24 years.

So I'm stopping use of AI, as well.

Reddit AntiAI | neutral | Published: 00:19 Sep 06, 2026 (Eastern)

The author of the Reddit post shares their decision to stop using AI. Although they did not use it for important tasks or generation, they previously used AI to discuss their special interests due to having few people to talk to. Feeling unsettled by the increasing presence of AI in creative tools, such as the inclusion of an AI assistant in the newest version of FL Studio, they purchased a late 1990s sequencer on eBay, plan to save money for hardware, and intend to cease interacting with AI entirely.

Hikers rescued after using Google Gemini for planning

TechCrunch | negative | Published: 15:35 Sep 05, 2026 (Eastern)

Three hikers were rescued from Mount Shasta in California after using Google's AI chatbot Gemini to plan their expedition. According to the Siskiyou County sheriff's office, the hikers reached the summit late at night after starting early, attempted to descend in the dark, and spent the night in Mud Creek Canyon before being rescued by Forest Service rangers and volunteers. The sheriff's office stated that Gemini advised the group to bring less food and water than required, and recommended that travelers consult local ranger stations rather than relying solely on AI for trip planning.

Under-The-Radar Oklahoma Bitcoin Mining Site Condemned After Leaking 3 Million Gallons Of Water

Zero Hedge | negative | Published: 15:45 Sep 05, 2026 (Eastern)

An under-the-radar Bitcoin mining facility in El Reno, Oklahoma, operated by Athlon BT LLC, was condemned after leaking three million gallons of water. City officials stated that the site operated without required approvals and in violation of building and safety codes, continuing construction and operations despite an expired permit and a stop-work order issued in 2023. Although Athlon had informed the city its equipment was air-cooled and that a newly discovered, unrecorded fire hydrant behind the property was the only purpose for the water line, above-ground piping and the company's previous references to hydro-cooling technology raised questions about actual water use. Following the incident and the property's condemnation, El Reno adopted a new ordinance requiring greater scrutiny and public comment for future data center developments.
