An earthquake has struck Yellowstone National Park within miles of an ancient volcanic landmark feared to be showing signs of awakening.

I've only just stepped out of my front door and I'm already covered in a thick layer of sweat. My hair's damp at the nape of my neck, and I can feel it trickling down my shoulder blades and back.

Alcohol Interlock Installation Facilitation (AIIF) will not be fitted as mandatory to cars at this time, the government has ruled today.

Sipeed has introduced NanoKVM-Go, a compact USB-C KVM-over-IP device that combines remote hardware management with AI integration. Designed for Linux, Windows, macOS, and other USB-C devices, NanoKVM-Go allows users to remotely view and control a system through a web browser while exposing its keyboard, mouse, and display functions to AI agents via the Model Context Protocol (MCP).

Unlike traditional KVM-over-IP solutions that require multiple cables and dedicated networking hardware, NanoKVM-Go simplifies the setup into a single USB-C connection, making remote administration and AI-assisted automation more accessible for developers, system administrators, and homelab enthusiasts.

A Portable USB-C KVM

NanoKVM-Go is roughly the size of a smartwatch, measuring about 45 × 40 × 15 mm, yet it combines several functions into a single device.

Key hardware features include:

• USB-C connection for video, audio, keyboard, mouse, and power
• Wi-Fi 6 connectivity
• Browser-based remote management
• Support for virtual USB storage
• Built-in Tailscale integration for secure remote access
• Fanless aluminum enclosure with low power consumption

Because it connects over USB-C using DisplayPort Alt Mode, the device can manage a wide variety of hardware without requiring software installation on the target system.

Designed for Linux and Beyond

NanoKVM-Go supports numerous USB-C devices, including:

• Linux desktops and laptops
• Windows PCs
• macOS systems
• Mini PCs
• Steam Deck
• Android devices with DisplayPort Alt Mode
• iPhone 15 and newer models
• Tablets supporting USB-C video output

For Linux users, this provides an easy way to perform BIOS configuration, operating system installation, kernel debugging, or remote troubleshooting—even when the operating system is unavailable.

AI Integration Through MCP

One of NanoKVM-Go's defining features is its AI-native design.

Rather than simply streaming a desktop remotely, the device exposes its KVM functions as an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server, allowing compatible AI agents to interact with the connected computer using hardware-level keyboard and mouse input.

This enables AI systems to:

• View the screen
• Move the mouse
• Type on the keyboard
• Launch applications
• Navigate user interfaces
• Complete repetitive desktop workflows

Because control happens at the hardware level, AI agents can interact with systems regardless of the operating system installed.

Anglian Water have issued a brief statement after rumours spread on social media following the introduction of a hosepipe ban last week

Do you love Rick Stein but struggle to find somewhere in Essex to get the same food, here are some places serving brilliant seafood.

An Essex Police officer is set to face a misconduct hearing over alleged inappropriate behaviour towards colleagues.

Essex drivers could face fines of £1,000 over the Anglian Water hosepipe ban for cleaning their car.

The European Commission has exempted wearables from upcoming EU rules requiring portable-device batteries to be removable and user-replaceable. The broader Batteries Regulation still takes effect in February 2027 for many consumer products, but the exemption means companies like Apple, Google, Samsung, and Meta won't have to redesign their wearables for the EU. Thurrott reports: Yesterday, the Commission announced that new product categories would be exempted from complying with its Batteries Regulation, including wearable devices such as smartwatches, fitness trackers, and smart glasses. This will likely be good news for companies like Apple, Google, Samsung, and Meta, which won't have to redesign their devices to include user-replaceable batteries for consumers in the EU market. The EU's Batteries Regulation will come into effect in February 2027, which is when Nintendo plans to stop selling all models of the original Nintendo Switch in the EU. While Nintendo had no choice but to redesign its handheld console to keep selling it in the EU, it probably didn't make sense for the company to put in the same effort for the OG Switch, which will celebrate its 10th anniversary in March 2027.
