As a long time user and former fan of Windows, who has admin'ed Windows desktop and server operating systems for over 20 years and defended Microsoft on occasion, I have mostly stopped using it unless I have to. I have it on my issued work laptop and I am down to just my gaming PC at home for...

This is admittedly very trivial given the issues at stake, but all I could think about when they mentioned they took her Garmin watchwas "Oh no! How is she going to record her workouts? That is so cruel."

If an alternative experience is any help, my 2023 Ioniq 5 Limited AWD just hit 20k miles (bought it used at 9k) and I have had no unexpected issues. I replaced the OEM 12v battery late last year, but it was probably close to its expected life anyway. I love the car.

I've been wanting to upgrade my 6th gen i7 with GTX1080 rig for quite a while now. Finally decided to pull the trigger before price increases got worse. I ended up going with a prebuilt this time because I couldn't build the same PC for cheaper myself. I ended up with a 7800 X3D / RTX 5070Ti...

Device-bound passkeys stored in Windows Hello must be released with the user's PIN or biometric. Being able to login as that user to that machine alone is not sufficient to extract passkeys stored by that user. That is also operating under the assumption that you are limited to storing passkeys...

Thank you for this article. It does a great job pointing out all of the things my brain was screaming when reading through the last one featuring Wyden's very one-sided account of the situation. One extra thing to point out, is that based on my (and packages like Bloodhound's) understanding of...

The article said that the attacker uses the same tactics as Scattered Spider. Based on that statement, I would assume that the intrusion begins like the others with a social engineering attack against the outsourced helpdesk. They get an analyst (who likely has a poor understanding of the org...

Liquid Glass aside, one of the biggest positive changes I noticed is that CarPlay makes much better use of the screen resolution in my car. Where previously a lot of space was wasted with UI boxes and the screen text was almost overly large, the new interface fits a lot more information in...

Despite injected noise into the training data making the output of private information less likely, if there is still a non-zero probability that it will spill private information from its training, it is not a private model despite Google's aspirations otherwise. Additionally, most...

Still rocking a water-cooled 1080 on an ancient custom build. I had planned to upgrade when the 50-series was released earlier this year, but couldn't find a 5080 in stock anywhere so I just gave up. The 1080 still holds up really well, even at 1440p in some cases. Most modern titles are kind of...

As others have mentioned, the post-infiltration techniques may have been new, but there's nothing novel about dropping a wireless-enabled RPi on a network and using it as a foothold for scanning/lateral movement. Group-IB loses a lot of credibility by saying otherwise unless that quote was out...

Yes. The PlugShare app tracks this for all networked chargers across all networks. No. No. For my car and model year, pre-conditioning requires using the built-in navigation system to navigate to a charger but will work for any charger in the nav. I use CarPlay for nav/infotainment so not in...

YubiKeys (and other properly implemented FIDO2 authenticators) are two-factor on their own. Something you have (the authenticator w/ stored private key for the relying party) and something you know (PIN/biometric to unlock). Properly done passkey authentication should let you just select...

I love the callback to the animated X-Men series. I remember waiting anxiously every Saturday morning to watch that show and I could still probably hum parts of the intro theme song in my head. I was a teenager when this movie hit the theatres, and I loved it and the sequels (well at least X2)...

Even if governments could be trusted to dutifully use such access only when necessary and within legal guidelines (they demonstrably cannot), and even if they could be trusted to keep such access safeguarded (I mean, lol), this encryption backdoor would still be a terrible idea for all of the...

I think in this case you should blame the implementation by Okta (and sort of the admin). For example, if using Passkeys in Microsoft Authenticator for Entra ID logins, Bluetooth (i.e. proximity) is required for cross-device authentication...

As someone who has road-tripped a non-Tesla EV (Ioniq 5) within the last month, I disagree a lot of this. Tesla may be the largest single network, but they are the last chargers I look for when planning stops. The 400V stalls are much slower than using an 800V DCFC. There's not really any cost...

While the original poster and post have gotten the axe already, it is amazing how consistently these articles get someone to make confidently incorrect statements about the products resulting from combustion of methane in atmospheric gasses. Unless they think there is a giant tank of LOX...

Shouldn't take too much longer for your prediction to come to fruition. Elon's DOGE cronies are already leaking xAI API keys on GitHub to make things easier. https://krebsonsecurity.com/2025/07/doge-denizen-marko-elez-leaked-api-key-for-xai/ Or the adversaries could just grab a key from one of...

That's the problem, it should be space-based! Duh! /s
