Doves:

  1. Kingdom of Rust
  2. 10:03
  3. Compulsion
  4. Push Me On
  5. Here it Comes
  6. The Man Who Told Everything
  7. The Cedar Room
  8. Valley
  9. Almost Forgot Myself
  10. Snowden
  11. Sky Starts Falling
  12. There Goes The Fear
  13. Pounding
  14. Caught By The River

The Boxer Rebellion:

  1. Diamonds
  2. Always
  3. Caught By The Light
  4. Flashing Red Light Means Go
  5. Soviets

Beach House:

  1. Everything from their Album "Bloom", but especially Myth, Lazuli, Other People, Wishes

Real Estate:

  1. Everything on their latest album "Atlas"

The Zolas:

  1. Ancient Mars
  2. Cab Driver

Jets Overhead:

  1. This Way
  2. No Nations
  3. I Should be Born
  4. Tired of the Comfort
  5. Seems So Far

Just a sampling.  I'll post more from the other bands later.  You should remember, though, these aren't pop bands who typically produce an album with 1 or 2 good songs that are released as singles, and the rest of the album is lame.  These bands have whole albums that I can easily listen to over and over.  The new Charlatans album, "Modern Nature" is a perfect example.  It's just brilliant!

i am not a big fan of indie rock much, i listen to lounge and electronic music, as well as mostly non english speaking music (folk, rock, ska punk, jazz, triphop)

 

i tried the 2 The Zolas tracks, as that is the only band you gave only 2 recommendations from.

i can see myself enjoying them as background music while doing stuff.  seem very pleasing to the ears.

 

i will have to check the rest later

Yes, I just discovered them!  Very good; for right now, it's the only way to get my new 'Doves' fix.

Finally around to listening to this.

    • Anthropic accuses Alibaba of using 25,000 fake accounts to copy Claude's capabilities by Karthik Mudaliar Anthropic has accused Alibaba of using nearly 25,000 fraudulent accounts to extract capabilities from Claude on a huge scale. According to a report from Reuters, Anthropic told US lawmakers that operators linked to Alibaba and the company’s Qwen AI team generated 28.8 million exchanges with Claude between April 22 and June 5, 2026. That is a lot of Claude conversations, but Anthropic says this was not ordinary chatbot use. The company believes the accounts were part of a coordinated effort to collect answers that could help train or improve rival AI systems. The alleged campaign reportedly focused on some of Claude’s most valuable skills, including software development, multi-step reasoning, and agentic tasks. In practical terms, that means getting an AI model to plan and complete work across several stages rather than simply answering a single question. This is called 'distillation,' where AI companies use outputs from a larger model to train a smaller and cheaper one. The smaller model learns to imitate useful parts of the more capable system without needing the same amount of computing power. The distillation process isn't automatically suspicious, but the problem comes when one company gathers another provider's outputs without permission and at an industrial scale. Also, this does not mean Alibaba obtained Claude’s source code, model weights, or original training data. Instead, Anthropic claims the accounts repeatedly asked Claude carefully designed questions and collected the answers. Those answers could then be used as training material for another model. Anthropic has made similar accusations against DeepSeek, Moonshot AI, and MiniMax earlier this year. As Neowin previously reported, Anthropic said those three companies collectively generated more than 16 million Claude exchanges through roughly 24,000 accounts. Anthropic says the new campaign produced almost twice as many exchanges in a matter of weeks. Anthropic reportedly told lawmakers that the campaign could help Chinese AI developers approach the capabilities of its Mythos Preview model. Mythos is focused on advanced cybersecurity work, including finding and exploiting complex software vulnerabilities. via Reuters | Photo via DepositPhotos.com
    • An Indian manufacturer that assembles roughly one-third of Apple's iPhones and supplies semiconductor components to Tesla confirmed Monday that attackers had stolen and publicly published a 630-gigabyte cache of confidential files — including engineering blueprints stamped "TRADE SECRET," a 52-page quality inspection document for iPhone circuit board components, and cryptographic certificates that security experts say could be weaponized in follow-on attacks. https://www.techtimes.com/articles/319019/20260624/apple-tesla-supplier-tata-electronics-confirms-630-gb-data-theft-iphone-specs-dark-web.htm
    • I don't think it was ever a big question. In fact, I don't think anyone ever asked about how clocks work on Mars.
    • I don't know what the price difference is between a 5GbE and a 10GbE part, but it seems that putting a 10GbE port in might be a bit more 'standard'.
