Like clockwork, every six months, we have a new OpenBSD release. OpenBSD 7.8 adds support for the Raspberry Pi 5, tons of improvements to sleep, wake, and hibernate, the TCP stack can now run in parallel on multiple processors, and so much more. DRM has been updated to match ...
Raymond Chen has another great post about some of the classic icons from Windows 95, this time focusing on pifmgr.dll. In this file, there are a variety of random-seeming icons, and it turns out they’re random for a reason: they were just a bunch a fun, generic icons...

Microsoft has published a set of short questions and answers about driver updates through Windows Update, and there’s one tidbit in there I found interesting. Driver dates might look old, but that is not true. The driver date is descriptive info set by the...
Not quite how The Killers put it, but a new report shows Human workers remain the most consistent point of attack for cybercriminals, with shadow IT and AI-driven social engineering providing attackers with both new tools and new targets. The 2025 Global Threat Intelligence...
DebugFS is the kernel's anything-goes, no-rules interface: whenever a kernel developer needs quick access to internal details of the kernel to debug a problem, or to implement an experimental control interface, they can expose them via DebugFS. This is possible because...
OpenBSD 7.8 has been released. As usual, this release includes a long list of changes; see the changelog for all of the details.

Many of the recent wave of high-profile cyberattacks can be traced back to the theft of a single set of credentials which have allowed the attacker to access and move within a corporate network. A new report from Flashpoint looks at the rise of large-scale...
More than 850 prominent figures have called for a prohibition on developing AI superintelligence, a move that could reshape enterprise AI investments and intensify the US-China technology race if adopted. The open letter, released Wednesday by the Future of Life Institute,...
The wait is over! OpenAI today rolls out ChatGPT Atlas, its new AI web browser. Built around ChatGPT, Atlas merges browsing and conversation into one workspace, letting users ask questions, get help, and complete tasks directly on the pages they visit. Versions for Windows,...
Yeah, okay, I know about that one Futurama game for PS2. Let's be real, though, beyond its surprisingly high-caliber writing it was just sort of an okay platformer. The Simpsons has always gotten more love in the gaming space despite being the inferior Groening show (yeah, I ...
That Walter Masterson guy gets around, doesn't he? The left-wing comedian has taken an even harder step into activism recently, going from interrupting billionaire dinners to interviewing New York City mayoral hopeful Zohran Mamdani without missing a beat. This isn't just...
The black bears of Sequioa Park Zoo in Eureka, California, got a visit from a wild black bear. Local law enforcement was called to help remove the wild bear, as he had not paid admission. 'He was really, really interested in our three bears, and he introduced himself to all ...

An ICE agent smashed a car window during a traffic stop in L.A., then shot both the occupant of the vehicle and a U.S. Marshal. Both were injured; the man was named as Tik Tok star Richard LA, who is reportedly an undocumented immigrant. — Read the rest The post ICE agent...
Aura's digital photo frame (previously at Boing Boing) was a little nicer than most of the junk in the category, so it doesn't surprise me to see it come out with a fancy color e-ink model. It has a 13-inch 1600×1200 e-paper display with automatic brightness, paper-like matti...
New poll data reveals that 89 percent of respondents say access to public web data is critical for ensuring a fair and competitive AI market. The survey carried out at this year’s OxyCon web intelligence event shows organizations are getting worried they are losing access...
