The man accused of fatally shooting conservative activist Charlie Kirk has been identified as Tyler Robinson, 22, a Utah native who had been living with his parents “for a long time”, authorities said.

What Is Crypto Mining Equipment and Why It Matters Crypto mining equipment refers to the hardware used to validate transactions and secure blockchain networks. In early years, miners used CPUs and GPUs. These days, profit depends almost entirely on ASICs — machines built exclusively for hashing algorithms like SHA-256. Why does this shift matter? Because without specialized hardware, the cost of electricity, heat, and maintenance exceeds revenue. Having powerful hardware is necessary, but not sufficient. The environment where the equipment runs — cooling, power, network stability — can make or break profitability. That’s where a company like EZ Blockchain stands…

Forces loyal to Machar fought a five-year civil war against those backing President Salva Kiir until a 2018 peace deal ending the fighting in the world’s newest country. Machar has been under…

The wife of former US Senator Robert Menendez has been sentenced to 4 and a half years in prison for aiding her husband in a bribery scheme involving stacks of cash, gold bars and a Mercedes-Benz.

Her husband was convicted last year and sentenced to…
