And yet, they remain largely untapped in the cybersecurity workforce. If we’re serious about fortifying digital defense systems, it’s time we stop overlooking the neurodiverse minds that already think in ways most cybersecurity frameworks are only beginning to

There’s now a cheaper Retroid Pocket Flip 2 available, but here’s why you shouldn’t buy it

Nick Fernandez / Android Authority TL;DR The Dimensity 1100 edition of the Retroid Pocket Flip 2 will go up for sale later today. With the 72-hour early bird discount, it costs $50 less than the Snapdragon 865 version. The D1100 is powerful enough for PS2, but the SD865 has better driver support.

We may be past the era of Peak TV, but it's always fun to look back at the plethora of shows that hit television, propelled unknown actors to superstardom, and dominated the conversation.
