You can now easily buy a Switch 2 without jumping through hoops

theverge.com Brandt Ranj 2025-12-31 09:00:00

Perhaps we’ve been thinking the same thing, you and I. That there won’t be a long-standing drought of Nintendo Switch 2 availability after all. The console has been easy to buy online from several retailers this week, including Best Buy, Target, and Walmart. Amazon, which didn’t sell the Switch 2 at launch, is currently selling it by invitation only. The console’s messy preorder process and spotty launch availability made it feel a little like late 2020 all over again, when the PlayStation 5, X

The role of the cybersecurity PM in incident-driven development

bleepingcomputer.com Unknown 2025-12-31 10:01:11

Article written by cybersecurity expert Yuriy Tsibere. Gone are the days when cybersecurity meant stopping annoying viruses like the Love Bug. Today, it’s about battling a massive, financially motivated cybercrime industry. Attacks are smarter, faster, and more damaging—and that changes everything for product teams. For product managers (PMs), this means understanding that attackers are constantly exploiting the same weak spots: stolen admin credentials, missing multi-factor authentication (MF

Google Maps brings music controls back, but the fix isn’t perfect

Rita El Khoury / Android Authority TL;DR Media playback controls are back in Google Maps. Google confirmed earlier this week that the disappearance was a bug.

I’ve been an Android guy for 15 years. Fun fact: I have never owned an iPhone. I’ve been on Team Android since day one, and over that decade and a half, I’ve used phones from nearly every major brand you can think of — Samsung, LG, OnePlus, and more.

Lawmakers writing NASA’s budget want a cheaper upper stage for the SLS rocket

Not surprisingly, Congress is pushing back against the Trump administration's proposal to cancel the Space Launch System, the behemoth rocket NASA has developed to propel astronauts back to the Moon. Spending bills making their way through both houses of Congress reject the White House's plan to wind down the SLS rocket after two more launches, but the text of a draft budget recently released by the House Appropriations Committee suggests an openness to making some major changes to the program.

The FDA Is Using an AI to "Speed Up" Drug Approvals and Insiders Say It's Making Horrible Mistakes

As CNN reports, six current and former FDA officials are warning that the AI, dubbed Elsa, which was unveiled weeks earlier, is "hallucinating" completely made-up studies. It's a terrifying reality that could, in a worst-case scenario, lead to potentially dangerous drugs mistakenly getting the stamp of approval from the FDA.

Hackers—hope to defect to Russia? Don’t Google “defecting to Russia.”

To the casual observer, cybercriminals can look like swashbuckling geniuses. They possess technical skills formidable enough to penetrate the networks of the biggest companies on the planet. They cover their tracks using technology that is arcane to most people—VPNs, encrypted chat apps, onion routing, aliases in dark web forums. They talk trash, extorting corporate ransoms in cryptocurrency, and they aim high, not flinching even at the prospect of stealing data on US presidential candidates.

Most of it focused on the fact that a relatively small and unknown company said it had built a chatbot that rivaled the performance of those from the world’s most famous AI companies, but using a fraction of the computer power and cost.
