X barely breaking even, Musk reportedly emailed staff

Mashable - 2 hours 25 min ago

Social platform X is "barely breaking even," owner Elon Musk emailed employees, the Wall Street Journal reported.

"Our user growth is stagnant, revenue is unimpressive, and we're barely breaking even," Musk reportedly said. In a story about banks preparing to sell billions of dollars in debt borrowed by X, WSJ printed other parts of the email:

"Over the last few months, we've witnessed the power of X in shaping national conversations and outcomes...We are also seeing other platforms begin to adopt our commitment to free speech and unbiased truth."

The latter sentence refers to Meta, which is removing fact-checks in favor of community notes, which X already has.

Elon Musk has denied writing this to staff, posting on X, "This report is false. I sent no such email. WSJ is lying."

Since his takeover of then-Twitter in 2022, Mashable has reported that X's user base has declined, fleeing for alternatives like Bluesky, especially after the 2024 U.S. presidential election. Advertisers have been no different, with the trend of companies removing ads on X expected to continue this year.

The WSJ article stated that Morgan Stanley bankers have reached out to investors ahead of a $3 billion sale of debt it and other banks lent to X to complete Musk's buyout in 2022. Investors have allegedly expressed interest in buying the debt as they see X's financial position on an "upward trajectory," WSJ reported, likely because of Musk's alliance with President Trump.

Musk has been in the news this week for other reasons, including his attendance at Trump's inauguration on Monday and the "Roman salute" he gave during a speech.

Meta platforms blocked posts by abortion pill providers

Mashable - 3 hours 18 min ago

Meta platforms Instagram and Facebook blocked and hid posts by abortion pill providers, the New York Times reported. The company confirmed to the Times that it blurred some posts and suspended some providers' accounts. The actions have reportedly ramped up this week following Trump's inauguration.

SEE ALSO: Report: Meta's fact checking program failed to spot most disinformation

This month, before the inauguration, Meta made several major changes to its platforms, including removing fact-checks and relaxing hate speech policies. A Meta spokesperson told the Times that the post-blocking and account suspensions aren't related to the moderation changes and attributed some of the incidents to the "overenforcement" of rules prohibiting pharmaceutical drug sales without proper certification.

Aid Access, Women Help Women, Just the Pill, and Hey Jane are abortion pill providers impacted by these actions, the Times reported.

In recent weeks, Instagram came under fire for blocking LGBTQ content (Meta claimed it was an "accident") and the #democrat hashtag.

For years, Meta platforms, particularly Instagram, have been accused of blocking and removing posts and accounts sharing sex-educational and LGBTQ content. In 2022, Instagram blocked posts that mentioned abortion following the overturning of Roe v. Wade (apparently due to a "technical glitch"). Mashable has also previously reported that Meta rejected period care ads for being political or adult content.

This week, The Trump administration shut down reproductiverights.gov, a site set up after Roe was overturned. The government site provided information on birth control, emergency contraception, and abortion pills.

Mark Zuckerberg announces $60 billion investment in Meta AI

Mashable - 4 hours 53 min ago

On Friday, Mark Zuckerberg announced a $60-65 billion investment into Meta AI.

"This will be a defining year for AI," Zuckerberg wrote in a Facebook post detailing the investment. "In 2025, I expect Meta AI will be the leading assistant serving more than 1 billion people, Llama 4 will become the leading state of the art model, and we'll build an AI engineer that will start contributing increasing amounts of code to our R&D [research and development] efforts."

SEE ALSO: Mark Zuckerberg wants more 'masculine energy' in corporate America

Llama is the open-sourced Large Language Model (LLM) powering Meta's AI on Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. The current version is Llama 3, but Meta announced back in December that Llama 4 is coming in 2025.

Zuckerberg went on to say that Meta is building a data center of over two GW (gigawatts, a big amount of energy) "that is so large it would cover a significant part of Manhattan." Meta expects to bring around one GW of computing this year and will end the year with more than 1.3 million GPUs. Basically, the data center will have a ton of processing power.

"We're planning to invest $60-65B in capex [capital expenditures] this year while also growing our AI teams significantly, and we have the capital to continue investing in the years ahead," Zuckerberg said.

This announcement coincides with Zuckerberg being named in a lawsuit claiming that Llama was trained using pirated materials. Additionally, it follows the unveiling of The Stargate Project, a $500 billion AI infrastructure investment announced by President Trump and OpenAI. Stargate will also facilitate the construction of AI data centers. 

"This is a massive effort, and over the coming years it will drive our core products and business, unlock historic innovation, and extend American technology leadership," Zuckerberg concluded his post. "Let's go build!"

Oklahoma Senator introduces bill to criminalize adult content and imprison creators

Mashable - 5 hours 51 min ago

The day after Inauguration Day, Oklahoma Senator Dusty Deevers introduced a slate of legislation to "restore moral sanity" to the state, including criminalizing pornography.

The bill, SB593, would prohibit pornography, and those who produce, distribute, or possess porn in the state would face up to 10 years in prison. Project 2025 (the conservative policy wishlist for Trump's second term) calls for exactly this: a ban on pornography and the imprisonment of its creators.

Oklahoma already has an age-verification law in place, meaning that those who want to view a website with a "substantial portion" (over a third) of explicit content must verify their age with personal information like a digital ID. As a result, Pornhub is no longer available in the state. (The Supreme Court recently had a hearing about age verification, but the result is still pending.)

SEE ALSO: Did Trump's executive order just make everyone in the U.S. female?

The bill also heightens 10-to-30-year penalties for "organized pornography trafficking," though it's not immediately clear if this is referring to sex trafficking.

"Pornography is both degenerate material and a highly addictive drug," Deevers said in the announcement of the bills. "It ruins marriages, ruins lives, destroys innocence, warps young people's perception of the opposite sex, turns women into objects, turns men into objects, degrades human dignity, and corrodes the moral fabric of society. Any decent society will stand against this plague with the full weight of the law."

"Porn addiction" isn't recognized in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5) as a mental disorder due to lack of evidence, and the American Psychological Association (APA) points to a study that suggests porn can be used compulsively rather than an addiction. But many activities can be done compulsively, like eating or shopping. Another study suggested that one's perceived addiction to porn leads to more psychological stress over time.

As for how porn impacts perceptions, this seems like a great argument for comprehensive sex education. Among other things, sex ed teaches students media literacy — that porn is fantasy and not what sex is like — and teaches anatomy, so students can know their own bodies. But the first Trump administration sabotaged sex education in the country, and the pandemic disrupted it, too.

Only 36 states and DC require either sex education and/or HIV education at the time of publication. Oklahoma falls into the latter (mandating HIV education), and it stresses abstinence. It also isn't required to cover healthy relationships, according to the Guttmacher Institute, a research and policy organization for advancing sexual and reproductive health and rights.

Additionally, the bill calls for heightening the penalties for possession of child sex abuse material (CSAM) from up to 20 years in prison to 10-to-30 years.

Deevers introduced several other bills as well, calling for measures such as abolishing abortion, ending no-fault divorce, and prohibiting Drag Queen Story Hour.

Private moon spacecraft just took a breathtaking snapshot of Earth

Mashable - 10 hours 27 min ago

An uncrewed spacecraft just snapped an iconic portrait of the blue marble from space

Firefly Aerospace's Blue Ghost lander, a private spacecraft hired by NASA to take experiments to the moon, is flying laps around Earth right now as it gears up for its first attempt at a lunar touchdown. 

Blue Ghost captured the Earth image, shown below, during its second engine burn — the first that must be successfully achieved in order to get to the moon, some 239,000 miles away. The spacecraft will fly two more weeks around the planet before its Trans Lunar Injection, the maneuver that will put it on a moon-bound trajectory. 

When flight controllers fired the engines for the first time in space days before, it was emotional for the small team of engineers who worked on it, said Ryan Cole, the engine manager, during a video update on the mission. 

"The moment that we completed the maneuver was really special for everybody. I don't think anybody quite believed what they were looking at for the first few seconds," he said. "Everything looks healthy right now."

SEE ALSO: Watch SpaceX exquisitely set free a pair of moon landers in space Firefly Aerospace, a company contracted by NASA to fly to the moon, grabbed a priceless snapshot of Earth while its Blue Ghost spacecraft orbited the planet. Credit: Firefly Aerospace

Blue Ghost, originally scheduled to lift off in late 2024, is the first NASA Commercial Lunar Payload Services mission of the year. The program has invested $2.6 billion in contracts with vendors from the private sector to help deliver instruments to the moon and send back crucial data. 

The lander was one of two spacecraft headed to the moon on a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket on Jan. 15. Japan's ispace Resilience lander, the company's second stab at getting to the moon after a failed attempt in 2023, was sharing the ride. Both spacecraft separated from the rocket later that day after liftoff. 

The Firefly spacecraft is carrying 10 experiments for the space agency. NASA wants to see a regular cadence of moon missions to prepare for astronaut-led Artemis expeditions in 2027 or later.

Tweet may have been deleted

Landing on the moon remains onerous. The moon's exosphere provides virtually no drag to slow a spacecraft down as it approaches the ground. Furthermore, there are no GPS systems on the moon to help guide a craft to its landing spot.

Once Blue Ghost embarks on its moon-bound trajectory, it will take four days for it to arrive at the moon. The spacecraft will spend 16 days in lunar orbit before descending to the lunar surface. It's targeting a landing on March 2.

NASA rover spots proof that Mars hosted more than just lakes

Mashable - 10 hours 57 min ago

The car-sized Curiosity rover has spotted evidence of once quite hospitable environs on Mars.

As shown in the imagery below, the NASA robot investigated dried-up lake beds and captured views of ripple formations on their ancient shorelines. Like on Earth, these ripples were almost certainly formed by small waves on open-air (not ice-covered) lakes, planetary scientists say. It provides evidence that Mars was warm, wet, and habitable at a time some research suggests the planet started cooling and transforming into an extremely dry and frigid desert.

These ripples formed some 3.7 billion years ago. (For reference, the earliest known fossils on Earth formed some 3.5 billion years ago.)

"Extending the length of time that liquid water was present extends the possibilities for microbial habitability later into Mars's history," Claire Mondro, a Caltech postdoc who researches the planet's past and led the new study, said in a statement. The research was recently published in the peer-reviewed journal Science Advances.

SEE ALSO: NASA scientist viewed first Voyager images. What he saw gave him chills.

Mars today is 1,000 times drier than the driest desert on Earth. Though no evidence of primitive Martian life has yet been found, it's grown clear that the planet hosted watery environs conducive for such microbes to potentially form. In this case, the evidence of shoreline rippling underscores that these shallow lakes — at least some 200 to 500 meters (650 to 1640 feet) across — were open-air bodies of water, meaning they weren't blanketed in ice cover, as we see on winter lakes or ponds on Earth. This points to hospitable environs.

"The shape of the ripples could only have been formed under water that was open to the atmosphere and acted upon by wind," Mondro explained.

The views below show these ancient ripples, formed in ancient soil and now preserved as Martian rock. They're small, each at some six millimeters (about a quarter inch) high.

Though Mars once harbored bounties of water, the Red Planet gradually lost its insulating atmosphere, in part to effects of solar radiation and a weakened magnetic field. Ultimately Mars' once thick atmosphere diminished, and bounties of water escaped. Without this insulating blanket, the planet dried out.

Yet for millions of years, Mars at least had the opportunity for life to flourish in lakes, or the moist clays of river deltas. NASA hopes to robotically return pristine Mars rock samples home in the 2030s; the space agency thinks they could potentially show evidence of past surface life.

But even if Martian life never dwelled on the surface, it's possible that life thrived, or even thrives, deep beneath the ground, shielded from the extremes of the callous desert and pummeling radiation.

A ghost is said to roam this railroad. A scientist has another idea.

Mashable - 11 hours 27 min ago

A decapitated train conductor is said to prowl a section of railroad in Maco Station, North Carolina, illuminating the tracks with a lantern.

But this ghost is far from the only reported rail sighting in the U.S. "There's a recurring theme. There are ghosts reported along railroad tracks holding lanterns," U.S. Geological Survey seismologist Susan Hough told Mashable.

While investigating the 1886 quake in Charleston, South Carolina — a potent 7.0 temblor that collapsed buildings and killed some 60 people — the legendary haunting of the nearby abandoned Summerville rail captured Hough's attention. As the viral shaking in New York City in 2024 illustrated, earthquakes stoked by shifting faults do rattle the Eastern U.S. from time to time. Perhaps, thought Hough, the Summerville ghost's lantern is actually a radiant earthquake phenomenon reported globally called "earthquake lights," commonly described as balls of light or steady glows.

"Maybe these ghosts are showing us where you have shallow, active faults in these [eastern] areas," said Hough, who recently published a research article on the phenomenon in the journal Seismological Research Letters.

While visiting the Charleston area, Hough dug up old book records from the 1950s and 1960s, which documented residents' attempts to spy light from the Summerville ghost (the lantern was supposedly carried by an apparition waiting for her husband to return). One such account reported that, during a Summerville ghost outing, their car shook violently.

"To a seismologist, that screams a shallow earthquake," Hough said.

"There are ghosts reported along railroad tracks holding lanterns."

Hough suggests that many of these sightings can be explained by quaking activity or earthquake faults. Summerville, after all, is thought to be the epicenter of the 1886 quake, and smaller 3.5 to 4.4 temblors hit there in 1959 and 1960. Even milder quakes, too small to be felt, but able to potentially produce earthquake lights, almost certainly affect the region, too.

If the supernatural isn't responsible for the radiance, how might quakes naturally create such brilliant lights?

Hough thinks that most quake experts accept that earthquake lights do occur, though there's still some skepticism. It's unclear, however, what causes them — but there are compelling seismic ideas. In the case of the "railroad ghosts," the process may begin with gases, like methane or radon, escaping to the surface through underground fractures in a shallow fault zone. Once on the surface, the gases can become trapped in water vapor and pool, igniting when they're exposed to oxygen. Then, the trains come into play. Trains create static electricity on steel tracks; even abandoned lines or heaps of steel rail can create the static spark, ultimately producing the eerie light.

Of course, not every railroad ghost is stoked by fault phenomena, Hough cautions. Sometimes, they're headlight reflections from nearby highways. But many could be caused by faults. And Hough says this could be tested, for example, by purchasing radon kits and placing them where the lights are, or have been, reportedly seen. Scientists could also look for shallow faults in these areas.

The Eastern U.S. certainly doesn't have the robust quaking activity seen on the West Coast — as there are no well-defined faults or major earthquake zones like California's infamous San Andreas Fault — but it'd behoove us to understand where these shallow faults are, and better grasp their risk.

In 2011, a magnitude 5.8 earthquake hit near Mineral, Virginia, with significant shaking reaching some 80 miles away, to Washington, D.C. The temblor damaged the Washington National Cathedral and Washington Monument. Fortunately, no one was killed.

But what if such a relatively rare quake hit much nearer to the nation's capital?

"If it was closer, it could have had a serious impact," Hough said.
