Amazon disrupts Russian APT29 hackers targeting Microsoft 365

Researchers have disrupted an operation attributed to the Russian state-sponsored threat group Midnight Blizzard, which sought access to Microsoft 365 accounts and data. Also known as APT29, the hacker group compromised websites in a watering hole campaign to redirect selected targets "to malicious infrastructure designed to trick users into authorizing attacker-controlled devices through Microsoft’s device code authentication flow." The Midnight Blizzard threat actor has been linked to Russia

Leaked Analogue 3D press video finally gives us our first real look at the N64 clone

TL;DR The Analogue 3D hardware has finally been showcased, nearly a year after it was announced. A press video, uncovered by a Discord user before its official release, shows the finished hardware. After facing several delays, it’s still slated for a Q4 2025 release. When it was first announced last year, the Analogue 3D generated a lot of hype. However, despite reassurances from the company that development was on schedule, the company still hasn’t officially shown the finished hardware in a

YouTube TV just got a brand-new look on Android TV devices

Aamir Siddiqui / Android Authority TL;DR YouTube is rolling out its promised redesigned UI for the YouTube TV app on Android TVs. New visual changes include centered Pause/Resume controls and separated pill buttons for several interface elements. Back in April, when YouTube turned 20, Google announced a slew of features, including the ability to build your own multiview with non-sports content, 4x playback speed, and more. Google also promised that YouTube TV would soon get a “viewing upgrade

The time picker in iPhone alarms has a bizarre hidden design element

We wouldn’t think many aspects of iPhone user interface design could be more straightforward than the time picker in the alarm function – but it appears we would be wrong … Macworld spotted a tweet by someone who found that neither hours nor minutes are loops, but are instead very long lists with a definite end. When the hour passes 23 (or 11pm if you’re that way inclined) and returns to 00, it isn’t actually returning to zero, it’s moving on to a new one. Similarly, when the minutes pass from

De-Googling TOTP Authenticator Codes

Back to Articles 1st Sep 2025 In the ongoing effort to extricate myself from Google's services, I've been paring down my usage of their apps on my (admittedly Android) phone. I'm now down to two Google apps I use regularly: Maps (for traffic data) and Authenticator (for TOTP [A] Time-based One Time Password codes). Now, I spend most of my time in a terminal window on MacOS or connected to a Linux machine; it'd be nice if I could get TOTPs on the command-line, and it turns out there's a utilit

India's billion-dollar e-waste empire

In the dead of a cold December night in 2023, at a dump near Delhi, hundreds of men huddled around small bonfires, clutching paper cups of tea. They tossed plastic bags into the flames as they waited for a fleet of trucks to arrive. The trucks rolled in one by one, full of electronic marvels now reduced to e-waste: Nokia, Itel, and Samsung smartphones; Sony and LG LCD screens; Tata air conditioners; Canon and Epson printers. As the trailer gates opened at the back of one truck, Rashid Khan and

Bear is now source-available

Bear is now source-available 01 Sep, 2025 When I started building Bear I made the code available under an MIT license. I didn't give it much thought at the time, but knew that I wanted the code to be available for people to learn from, and to make it easily auditable so users could validate claims I have made about the privacy and security of the platform. Unfortunately over the years there have been cases of people forking the project in the attempt to set up a competing service. And it hurt

Trade in War

In World War II, Britain was fighting for its survival against German aerial bombardment. Yet Britain was importing dyes from Germany at the same time. This sounds curious, to put it mildly. How can two countries at war with each other also be trading goods? Examples of this abound, actually. Britain also traded with its enemies for almost all of World War I. India and Pakistan conducted trade with each other during the First Kashmir War, from 1947 to 1949, and during the India-Pakistan War of

Git for Music – Using Version Control for Music Production (2023)

last updated on 6 Apr 2024 Being both a musician and a software engineer, I always felt that these two areas are almost completely separated. My developer skill-set seemed to have little to no use for my work as a musician. Which is a pity considering how cool it would be if there was some kind of a sinergy across these two sides of my life. Recently, though, I have found a useful possibility to utilize something I previously used solely for my development work, namely, git, the version contro

Lego’s September Releases Set Sail in More Ways Than One

Thought Lego would take a break from the realm of big boats after it launched One Piece as part of its blockbuster August? Well, thanks to last week’s surprise announcement of a new Pirates of the Caribbean set, we can think again. And yet, it’s not the only boat on the horizon for this month. After going all out for its big summer release wave in August, things are definitely a bit quieter in September for Lego. But that doesn’t mean big things aren’t coming: the new Black Pearl and a funky Ch

Apple’s stance on strong encryption gets the support of the FTC in US privacy U-turn

Apple’s commitment to end-to-end encryption is so strong that it withdrew a key privacy feature from the UK market rather than be forced to compromise it globally. The company also faced pressure on this front from the EU’s Digital Services Act (DSA). In a surprising twist, the White House came out in support of strong encryption, and the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) is now urging Apple and other tech giants to stand firm on the issue … The US’s changing narrative on strong encryption I des

MLS Season Pass price drops to $29 for rest of 2025

Like in previous years, Apple is dropping the price of the MLS Season Pass service as the year progresses. The annual sub is now just $29 for the rest of the 2025 season.

The price will return to its usual $99 at the beginning of the 2026 season. Note that MLS Season Pass will automatically renew at the standard price next year. However

End of an era as the last 11-inch MacBook Air is now officially obsolete

The last 11-inch MacBook Air model ever made has now been declared officially obsolete by Apple, some nine years after it was last sold by the company. The smallest of Apple’s MacBooks had long proved a popular choice with many, for two different reasons … First, it was the cheapest MacBook and bought by many of those who were buying their first ever Mac. But it also had a very strong following from those who liked the ultra-portability of the device. I was one of those who bought it for the

How to perform a reverse phone number lookup
