This security-focused Linux distribution is surprisingly good for everyday use

zdnet.com Jack Wallen 2025-10-07 23:52:15

Ger Bosma/Getty There are some Linux distributions that were created for specific purposes. There are those for creating multimedia, developing software, network routing, ethical hacking, general use, and everything in between. And then there are some distributions that can easily serve multiple purposes. When I think of ParrotOS, I generally think of security: forensics, penetration testing, etc. I've used ParrotOS for similar purposes before, but always neglected to test the Home edition.

Nicholas Hoult and Rachel Brosnahan Discuss Their Big ‘Superman’ Action Moments

gizmodo.com Germain Lussier 2025-10-07 23:51:59

There’s a moment early on in Superman when Lex Luthor is shouting commands for different fight moves to a team of people remote controlling a supervillain where you think two things. “It looks like Lex is playing a big, elaborate video game,” and “I’ve never seen anything like this in a superhero movie before.” Both things are true, and when io9 spoke with actor Nicholas Hoult about his villainous turn in the DC film, we asked him about it.

Why I recommend this Samsung Galaxy Watch over competing Androids

It's a stylish-looking smartwatch with a slew of safety features and a long-lasting battery. However, it's only available in a single size (47mm, to be exact), meaning it may not be a good fit for folks with smaller wrists. $419.99 at Amazon Samsung's Galaxy Watch Ultra is the company's top-of-the-line wearable, sporting a tough exterior, an eye-catching design

This New App Wants to Help You Track Your Sun Exposure

The founder of Twitter, Jack Dorsey, has a bright idea that he's released as a beta app for iPhones: Sun Day, for tracking your exposure to the sun. The app is free to testers and so far contains basic information such as sunrise, sunset and the UV index in order to assess a user's potential burn-limit time and, as the app description says, "track your Vitamin D from the sun." Dorsey is currently testing UI updates and a solar noon notification, according to the app notes. In the app, users can

Office problems on Windows 10? Microsoft’s response will soon be “upgrade to 11.”

Microsoft’s advertised end-of-support date for Windows 10 is October 14, 2025. But in reality, the company will gradually wind down support for the enduring popular operating system over the next three years. Microsoft would really like you to upgrade to Windows 11, especially if it also means upgrading to a new PC, but it also doesn’t want to leave hundreds of millions of home and business PCs totally unprotected.

The role Superman’s parents play in his life has always differed across years of comic book reshuffling and myriad adaptations. But in our latest crack at the Kryptonian whip in James Gunn’s Superman, Jor-El and Lara Lor-Van play a brief, but fundamental role in the movie. Casting the role for Gunn was crucial, not just because of the character’s legacy—but because he wanted to buck a trend from other live-action Superman films.
