Der Kampf gegen die international agierenden Drogenkartelle ist eine der Prioritäten von Donald Trump in seiner zweiten Amtszeit. Dabei besonders im Fokus: Venezuela. Einem Bericht zufolge könnte es auch zu Angriffen in dem Land selbst gegen die organisierte Kriminalität kommen.
US-Präsident Donald Trump erwägt offenbar eine Reihe verschiedener Optionen, die auch Angriffe auf Drogenkartelle innerhalb Venezuelas beinhalten. Das berichtet CNN unter Berufung auf mehrere namentlich nicht genannte Quellen, die mit den Plänen vertraut sein sollen.
Erst am Dienstag hatten die USA ein als Drogen-Schiff bezeichnetes maritimes Gefährt in der Karibik versenkt. Dabei wurden nach Angaben Trumps elf Besatzungsmitglieder getötet. Dem Bericht zufolge handelt es sich dabei erst um die Anfänge einer Verschärfung des Kampfes gegen die international agierenden Drogenkartelle.

Eine Entmachtung des venezolanischen Machthabers Nicolas Maduro gehört aber wohl derzeit nicht zu den Zielen des Weißen Hauses. « Darüber reden wir nicht », sagte Trump am Freitag. « Aber wir sprechen über die Tatsache, dass [Venezuela] eine Wahl hatte, die eine sehr seltsame Wahl war, um es milde auszudrücken », so der Republikaner.
Die USA hatten in den vergangenen Wochen mehrere Schiffe und Flugzeuge in die Region verlegt. Am Freitag hatte Trump zehn weitere Kampfjets vom Typ F-35 nach Puerto Rico entsandt.

In der Region sind unter anderem bereits mehrere Schiffe stationiert, die mit Marschflugkörpern vom Typ Tomahawk ausgestattet sind. Auch ein U-Boot gehört zu der Flotte.
Die USA hatten die in Venezuela gegründete Gruppe Tren de Aragua und andere nach Trumps Amtsantritt im Januar als « Terrororganisationen » eingestuft. Die US-Administration wirft Venezuela vor, die Drogenbanden im eigenen Land zu kontrollieren. Auch Machthaber Maduro wird vom Weißen Haus inzwischen als « Drogen-Terrorist » eingestuft. Sein Kopfgeld bei einer Festnahme beträgt inzwischen 50 Millionen Dollar.

Apple is just days away from unveiling the iPhone 17 lineup, and one of the biggest design questions around the Pro models appears to have been answered.
A new report previewing next week’s launch event claims the iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max will feature a redesigned back panel with a distinct cutout on the lower two-thirds of the device. That area will serve as the dedicated zone for wireless charging, supporting technologies like MagSafe and Qi.
Speculation about Apple’s design shift has been swirling since last year, when The Information reported that the new Pro models would adopt a mix of aluminum and glass instead of the all-glass back used in recent years. The details remained vague, prompting rumor sites and designers to publish conflicting renders and concept images.

Leaked descriptions suggest the back of the iPhone 17 Pro will include a rounded rectangular section of glass embedded within the aluminum shell. That glass is necessary for wireless charging, since the feature would not work through a fully metal surface.
What remains unclear is whether Apple plans to give the aluminum and glass a seamless, uniform finish or lean into a two-tone look that highlights the MagSafe area. With the official reveal only three days away, fans will not have to wait long to see which path Apple has chosen.

Chargers end 7-game losing streak to Chiefs with statement win in Brazil season opener

Justin Herbert threw for 318 yards and three touchdowns as the Los Angeles Chargers upset the Kansas City Chiefs, 27-21, in the NFL’s first international game of the season in Brazil.
The Los Angeles Chargers started the 2025 NFL season as winners, taking down the Kansas City Chiefs, 27-21, on Friday night in Brazil.
The Chiefs had won the previous seven matchups against their AFC West rival, but Justin Herbert and the Chargers ended that streak with nearly flawless football in São Paulo.
The Chiefs lost a key player on offense just three plays into the game when Xavier Worthy collided with Travis Kelce and suffered a shoulder injury that knocked him out for the rest of the game.
Worthy figured to be a top target for Mahomes, with head coach Andy Reid noting he had a good plan for the second-year receiver in this game.
Without him, the Chiefs sputtered on offense to start the game, but Herbert and the Chargers were locked in from kickoff.
They got off to a hot start with a seven-play touchdown drive capped by a five-yard strike from Herbert to Quentin Johnston to quickly make it 7-0 in the fourth quarter.
Cameron Dicker would add his first field goal of the season to make it 10-0, while the Chiefs punted on their first three drives.
It was all field goals in the second quarter for both teams, but the most exciting one was Harrison Butker knocking home a 59-yard field goal just as time was expiring.
It was a fire drill for the Chiefs, as Noah Gray wasn’t deemed out of bounds, and the special teams unit had to rush on the field and snap the ball with nine seconds left in the first half.
After an uncharacteristic first half for Kansas City’s offense, they quickly righted the ship with their first drive of the second half. Mahomes led the way, going 80 yards in 11 plays where he would scamper into the end zone for the Chiefs’ first touchdown of the season.
Herbert and the Chargers responded with a 12-play drive that took up almost eight minutes of the clock that resulted in a Keenan Allen touchdown to make it 20-12.
The fourth quarter was the most thrilling in this Brazilian bout, as Travis Kelce scored his first of the year when he sprung free for a 37-yard touchdown catch-and-run. That made it 20-18, as the Chiefs failed to convert their two-point try.
All the momentum was with Kansas City, but once again, the Chargers responded against their divisional foe. Herbert ran to his right on the Kansas City 23-yard line and slung a sidearm pass to Johnston for his second touchdown of the game.
The 27-18 gap was needed midway through the fourth quarter, as Mahomes would launch a 49-yard pass on the run to Marquise « Hollywood » Brown on fourth-and-7 to put the Chiefs in the red zone. They had to settle for a field goal, but they were within a touchdown and needed a stop on defense.
The story of this game was Herbert doing exactly what was needed to respond to the Chiefs, and he did so on a crucial third-and-14, scrambling outside the pocket and going 19 yards to seal the win in Brazil.
Herbert was phenomenal for the Chargers, going 25-for-34 for 318 yards with three touchdowns in the win. Johnston finished with 79 yards on five catches, while Ladd McConkey had six catches for 74 yards. Allen also had seven catches for 68 yards and a score.
For the Chiefs, Mahomes went 24-for-39 through the air for 258 yards and a touchdown, while leading the team on the ground with 57 yards rushing on six carries.
Brown had 10 catches for 99 yards, while Kelce had just two catches for 47 yards and a touchdown.

President Trump signs order rebranding Pentagon as the Department of War

The president said the switch to the Department of Defense title after the Second World War was a « woke » move.
President Trump has signed an executive order rebranding the US Department of Defense as the Department of War.
He called the original name « woke » and said the new title sent « a message of victory » and « a message of strength ».
It can only be used as a secondary title unless Congress approves the change – but the department’s website has already switched to war.gov – as have its social media accounts.
The door of Pete Hegsesth’s office has also been adorned with a fresh « Secretary of War » sign.
Mr Hegseth said the move wasn’t « politically correct » but that it showed « we’re going to go on offence ».
« We’re going to raise up warriors, not just defenders », he added.
President Trump signed the executive order in the White House’s Oval Office on Friday.
« We won the First World War. We won the Second World War. We won everything before that and in between », he said.
« And then we decided to go woke and we changed the name to Department of Defense. So we’re going Department of War. »
The president denied the rebrand ran contrary to his peacemaking efforts – which he claims have already « ended seven wars ».
« I think I’ve gotten peace because of the fact that we’re strong », he told reporters.
The official executive order states that the name « demonstrates our ability and willingness to fight and win wars on behalf of our Nation at a moment’s notice, not just to defend ».
It also commands Mr Hegseth to pursue legislation within 60 days to make the change permanent.
The Department of Defense – often referred to colloquially as the Pentagon due to the shape of its Washington HQ – was called the War Department from 1789 until 1949.
Historians say the name was changed to show the US was focused on preventing conflict following the Second World War.
President Trump’s reversion to the previous more combative title could end up costing tens of millions, with letterheads and building signs in the US and at military bases around the world potentially needing a refresh.
Joe Biden’s effort to rename nine army bases honouring the Confederacy and Confederate leaders, set to cost $39m (£29m), was reversed by Mr Hegseth earlier this year.
Mr Trump’s other federal renaming orders include controversially labelling the Gulf of Mexico the « Gulf Of America » and reverting North America’s tallest mountain, Denali in Alaska, to its former name of Mount McKinley.
The Mexican government and Alaska’s Republican senators both rejected the changes.

Reg hack attends job interview hosted by AI avatar, struggles to exit uncanny valley

If an employer asks you do to this, demand a trial run so you can learn the rules of this strange new world
A startup called Job Bolt has created AI avatars that conduct job interviews. The Register couldn’t help but give it a try and can report that it’s an unnerving experience.
Job Bolt’s pitch is that resumes and CVs are full of fibs that existing HR systems can’t detect, so HR people can save time by screening candidates with AI interviews that allow employers to write a set of questions for a human-like avatar to ask during a session that feels a lot like a one-to-one Zoom call.
Once the interview ends, Job Bolt uses AI to summarize the candidate’s responses so human HR folks can decide who gets a meeting with a real person.
Here’s a video of a typical AI-hosted interview. It glitches a bit because we excised some gratuitous logo placement.
So I could experience an AI interview for myself, Job Bolt created the role of editor at a fictional local newspaper, The Riverton Chronicle, and prepared a set of questions about how I find news, work with teams of reporters, and engage audiences.
I found the experience disconcerting, mainly because the avatar’s non-verbal behavior is twitchy, repetitive, and comes from way down deep in the uncanny valley – the place where not-real-enough simulations come off as inhuman and creepy attempts at authenticity.
In the video above, the avatar digests an answer for six seconds without responding. During the interview I took, it processed things a little quicker but its responses were banal. Most opened by referring to my previous answer by saying « Thank you for sharing » or referred to an answer by opening « It sounds like… » before offering a decent summary of a previous answer and trying to bridge to the next question.
The result just didn’t feel in any way conversational because the avatar doesn’t offer a real-time reaction to answers. It can’t nod, raise an eyebrow, or make any other gesture or sound that indicates active listening or gives a clue about how it’s receiving an interviewee’s words. So I found myself groping for anything to guide my responses.
The results felt like my worst self, an uncertain and inarticulate mess no recruiter would consider a viable candidate.
Job Bolt is not the only startup using AI to « improve » the recruitment process. Earlier this year, we met Megan the AI recruiting agent. Others are doubtless exploring the field and, because it’s 2025, some HR managers will adopt these AIs.
If you find yourself asked to interview with an AI, I advise requesting a test run so you can experience the platform and learn how to put your best foot forward. That’s a reasonable ask given that this sort of thing is new and strange. If an organization won’t let you practice, it’s probably an indicator that it’s not a place you would want to work anyway.

Tückische Namensgleichheit: Anwalt namens Mark Zuckerberg verklagt Facebook-Konzern

Mark S. Zuckerberg hat ein Problem: Sein Facebook-Account wird immer wieder gesperrt. Beim Online-Netzwerk scheint man zu denken, dass der Jurist sich für seinen berühmten Namensvetter ausgibt.
Stand: heute, 02:31 Uhr
Ein US-Anwalt namens Mark Zuckerberg klagt gegen den von seinem Namensvetter geführten Facebook-Konzern Meta, weil seine Profile bei dem Online-Netzwerk immer wieder gesperrt werden. Meta werfe ihm dabei stets vor, sich für einen prominenten Nutzer auszugeben, heißt es in der Klage. Der Insolvenzanwalt aus dem Bundesstaat Indiana geht davon aus, dass Meta einen Versuch vermutet, den Plattform-Gründer und Konzernchef Mark Zuckerberg zu imitieren.
Mark S. Zuckerberg betreibt neben einem privaten Profil auch ein berufliches, für das er Werbung schaltet. Die berufliche Facebook-Seite sei allein in den vergangenen acht Jahren fünfmal gesperrt worden, beschwerte er sich. Sie wieder online zu bringen, habe oft Monate gedauert, obwohl er jedes Mal rasch die nötigen Unterlagen eingereicht habe. Dabei sei eine Sperrung seines Accounts bereits im Jahr 2011 von amerikanischen und internationalen Medien aufgegriffen worden.
Zuckerberg, der bereits seit 38 Jahren als Anwalt aktiv ist, gab der Klage zufolge über die Jahre mehr als 11.000 Dollar für Werbung bei Facebook aus – in der Hoffnung, neue Kunden zu angeln. Seine Facebook-Seite sei im Mai dieses Jahres erneut blockiert und bis heute nicht wieder freigeschaltet worden. Der Anwalt wirft dem Konzern nun unter anderem Vertragsbruch vor, weil er nicht die vereinbarte Gegenleistung für seine Ausgaben als Anzeigenkunde erhalten habe. Er fordert, dass Facebook vom Gericht untersagt wird, seine Profile zu sperren.

Samsung’s Galaxy S26 lineup is already drawing attention months ahead of launch, thanks to newly surfaced dummy leaks that showcase the Edge model’s striking redesign. What stands out most is the oversized camera island, which dominates nearly the entire width of the phone and pushes the overall thickness to 10.8 mm.
The main body of the Galaxy S26 Edge measures 158.4 x 75.7 x 5.5 mm, making it slightly slimmer than the Galaxy S25 Edge by 0.3 mm. That number, however, doesn’t reflect the bulk added by the camera housing, which is now one of the chunkiest we’ve seen on a flagship in recent years.

Alongside the design changes, the leak confirms that the S26 Edge will feature built-in magnets to support the Qi2 wireless charging standard. The placement of those magnets, though, may complicate accessory makers’ efforts to design magnetic snap-on add-ons, given how much real estate the camera island now occupies.
The front of the device will once again be anchored by a 6.7-inch display, with bezels expected to remain close to what we saw on the S25 Edge. The company has reportedly managed to increase battery capacity, bumping it from 3,900 mAh on the current Edge to 4,200 mAh in the upcoming model.

While not a massive leap, the gain could explain the handset’s bulkier profile. Samsung has yet to confirm whether this cell uses new Si/C chemistry, which could have offered a more significant improvement.
The Galaxy S26 Edge, with its mix of sleeker dimensions and a beefed-up camera housing, looks set to stir debate around design trade-offs when it officially arrives.
