Gmail may finally alert you when someone reacts to your Chat messages (APK teardown)

Tushar Mehta / Android Authority TL;DR Strings in the latest Gmail update hint at some new Google Chat features in testing. Notification summaries in Gmail might work independently of Android 16’s system-wide version, bringing the feature to more devices. Gmail may also offer auto-generated conversation summaries and finally notify you when someone reacts to your Chat messages. Little by little, Gmail is slowly turning into more of a one-stop hub than an inbox. Google has been weaving Chat i

Open the pod bay doors, Claude

It’s a well-worn trope in science fiction. We see it in Stanley Kubrick’s 1968 movie 2001: A Space Odyssey. It’s the premise of the Terminator series, in which Skynet triggers a nuclear holocaust to stop scientists from shutting it down. Those sci-fi roots go deep. AI doomerism, the idea that this technology—specifically its hypothetical upgrades, artificial general intelligence and super-intelligence—will crash civilizations, even kill us all, is now riding another wave. The weird thing is th

Fenster: Most minimal cross-platform GUI library

Fenster Fenster /ˈfɛnstɐ/ -- a German word for "window". This library provides the most minimal and highly opinionated way to display a cross-platform 2D canvas. If you remember Borland BGI or drawing things in QBASIC or INT 10h - you know what I mean. As a nice bonus you also get cross-platform keyboard/mouse input and audio playback in only a few lines of code. What it does for you Single application window of given size with a title. Application lifecycle and system events are all handle

Saudi AI Firm Launches Halal Chatbot

Companies with AI chatbots love to highlight their capability as translators, but they still default to English, both in function and in the information they are trained on. With that in mind, Humain, an AI company in Saudi Arabia, has now launched an Arabic-native chatbot. The bot, called Humain Chat, runs on the Allam large language model, according to Bloomberg, which the company claims was trained on “one of the largest Arabic datasets ever assembled” and is the “world’s most advanced Arabi

‘100 Nights of Hero’ Teases a Cheeky Medieval Fantasy

Released in 2016, Isabel Greenberg’s graphic novel The One Hundred Nights of Hero earned a devoted following for its witty twist on The Arabian Nights, imagining a married woman and her beloved maid turning to the power of storytelling to protect the wife from her husband’s creepy wager. Now the tale is coming to the big screen with an all-star cast—and today’s teaser gives us our first look at its medieval folklore-inspired world. As the trailer shows, Deadpool & Wolverine‘s Emma Corrin (as th

Leaving Gmail for Mailbox.org

This was a tough decision, having used Gmail since 2007/2008. However, I had to draw the line and stop giving Google my data for free. The problem with email is that everything is transmitted in plain text. Technically, Google can store every message you receive and know everything, and U.S. agencies can request access to that data (this include also EU citizens under the EU-U.S. and Swiss-U.S. Data Privacy Frameworks). For someone like me, who cares about privacy and runs as much as possible

My other email client is a daemon

I have a slight problem wherein every time I start up a game of NetHack, I completely loose touch with my surroundings for hours on end. Thankfully The DevTeam Thinks Of Everything and there’s a solution that allows communication with the outside world without breaking immersion: the mail daemon! If compiled with -DMAIL and OPTIONS=mail is set in your runtime configuration (the default on Linux), NetHack will periodically check a user specified mbox file ( MAIL ) for new mail, and upon receivin

Neolithic people took gruesome trophies from invading tribes

A local Neolithic community in northeastern France may have clashed with foreign invaders, cutting off limbs as war trophies and otherwise brutalizing their prisoners of war, according to a new paper published in the journal Science Advances. The findings challenge conventional interpretations of prehistoric violence as bring indiscriminate or committed for pragmatic reasons. Neolithic Europe was no stranger to collective violence of many forms, such as the odd execution and massacres of small

D4d4

A co-worker of mine was looking at some disassembled ARM code the other day, and discovered something weird. Lots of d4d4 instructions, scattered about. LLVM’s objdump says this is a relative branch to -0x58 . The weird part is that they were always unreachable. Experiments¶ Here’s an example in a minimal reproducer I wrote: 00020100 < one >: 20100: 4770 bx lr 20102: d4d4 bmi 0x200ae <__dso_handle+0x100ae> @ imm = #-0x58 That bx lr right before the d4d4 branches to the link register.

Stone Age People Brutalized Their Prisoners of War, New Evidence Suggests

When we think of Stone Age people, most imagine small communities living in caves, cutting into their most recent hunt with primitive tools, and imitating their environment with illustrative rock art. People during the Neolithic, however—the last stage of the Stone Age (around 9000 to 3300 BCE)—also waged wars and absolutely demolished their enemies. In a study published today in the journal Science Advances, researchers present horrific evidence suggesting that Neolithic people in northeastern

Why email security needs its EDR moment to move beyond prevention

Security leaders today are rethinking email security, not because traditional methods have failed outright, but because the threat landscape and business needs have evolved beyond what legacy approaches can handle. A surprising but apt analogy keeps surfacing: email security is stuck where antivirus (AV) was a decade ago, and it’s time it evolved like AV did, into an element of EDR. The comparison might not be obvious at first. After all, email and endpoints seem like apples and oranges. But

FEMA Now Requires Disaster Victims to Have an Email Address

The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) will now require disaster survivors to register for federal aid using an email address—a departure from previous policy where email addresses were optional. The move, FEMA employees tell WIRED, puts people across the US with little to no access to internet services at risk of losing out on crucial federal financial assistance after disasters. In an internal operational update document seen by WIRED, the agency states that the new requirements are “

PyPI now blocks domain resurrection attacks used for hijacking accounts

The Python Package Index (PyPI) has introduced new protections against domain resurrection attacks that enable hijacking accounts through password resets. PyPI is the official repository for open-source Python packages. It is used by software developers, product maintainers, and companies working with Python libraries, tools, and frameworks. Accounts of project maintainers publishing software on PyPI are linked to email addresses. In the case of some projects, the email address is tied to a do

Medical cannabis patient data exposed by unsecured database

As legal cannabis has expanded around the United States for both recreational and medical use, companies have amassed troves of data about customers and their transactions. People who have applied for medical marijuana cards have had to share particularly personal health data to qualify. For some patients in Ohio who use medical weed, a recent data exposure could impact their sensitive information. Security researcher Jeremiah Fowler found a publicly accessible database in mid-July that appeare
