Disk Utility still can't check and repair APFS volumes and containers (2021)

Checking and repairing disks is one of the more important tasks performed by Disk Utility, but ever since the introduction of APFS, it has been more fraught than it should have been. One of its most persistent and pervasive problems has been complete failure because Disk Utility has been unable to unmount volumes or containers. To my shock, in Monterey 12.0.1 this problem appears worse than ever, and I now have one disk which Disk Utility is completely unable to check or repair. This article sug

Leader of Albania Pelted With Trash for Appointing AI-Powered Minister to Cabinet

The world's first AI government official is going about as well as anyone could expect. Yesterday, the virtual assistant "Diella" made its "inaugural address" to the Albanian parliament. Maybe unsurprisingly, the software — which had been appointed Minister for Public Procurements last week by prime minister Edi Rama — was met with fury by certain officials. Chaotic video shared by Albanian media group Report TV shows lawmakers from the opposition party throwing bottles and desk clutter at the

Three great MagSafe battery bank options for your iPhone 17, iPhone Air, and more

With iPhone Air, Apple reintroduced the MagSafe battery pack. It’s $99, and optimized specifically for iPhone Air.

We’ll be delving into the top options on the market, just in case you want a MagSafe battery for your iPhone without spending $99, or aren’t buying the iPhone Air. Since Apple opened up the MagSafe standard as Qi2 last year, third parties have been able to make MagSafe chargers

Microsoft’s Entra ID vulnerabilities could have been catastrophic

As businesses around the world have shifted their digital infrastructure over the last decade from self-hosted servers to the cloud, they’ve benefitted from the standardized, built-in security features of major cloud providers like Microsoft. But with so much riding on these systems, there can be potentially disastrous consequences at a massive scale if something goes wrong.

Want to Watch ‘Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle’? Go to a Theater, Crunchyroll Says

As is tradition, Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle, the first in a trilogy of anime films marking the conclusion of the megapopular anime, is in theaters and performing well at the box office. However, the question on every anime fan’s lips is when they should expect to see the film pop up on streaming platforms. A Crunchyroll executive’s sentiment on the matter should encourage fans to get their fix in theaters, as it won’t be coming to the orange streamer anytime soon. Speaking with Popverse, Mit

Why California’s SB 53 might provide a meaningful check on big AI companies

California’s state senate recently gave final approval to a new AI safety bill, SB 53, sending it to Governor Gavin Newsom to either sign or veto. If this all sounds familiar, that’s because Newsom vetoed another AI safety bill, also written by state senator Scott Wiener, last year. But SB 53 is narrower than Wiener’s previous SB 1047, with a focus on big AI companies making more than $500 million in annual revenue. I got the chance to discuss SB 53 with my colleagues Max Zeff and Kirsten Koro

Two of the Kremlin’s most active hack groups are collaborating, ESET says

Two of the Kremlin’s most active hacking units recently were spotted collaborating in malware attacks that compromise high-value devices located in Ukraine, security researchers said Friday. One of the groups is Turla, which is easily one of the world’s most sophisticated advanced persistent threats (well-organized and well-funded hacking groups, many backed by nation states, that target specific adversaries for years at a time). Researchers from multiple security firms largely agree that Turla

Some dogs can classify their toys by function

Certain dogs can not only memorize the names of objects like their favorite toys, but they can also extend those labels to entirely new objects with a similar function, regardless of whether or not they are similar in appearance, according to a new paper published in the journal Current Biology. It's a cognitively advanced ability known as "label extension," and for animals to acquire it usually involves years of intensive training in captivity. But the dogs in this new study developed the abili

Target-rich environment: Why Microsoft 365 has become the biggest risk

Microsoft 365 has become the central nervous system of modern business — and cybercriminals know it. Just as Windows became the primary target for attackers because of its market dominance in the 1990s and 2000s, Microsoft 365 now finds itself in the crosshairs for having "won" the email and collaboration war. With over 400 million paid Office 365 seats worldwide and countless organizations relying on its integrated suite of applications, Microsoft 365 represents the ultimate target-rich envir

Can Police Take Your Home Security Videos? 3 Ways It's Legal

But when the cops get involved, it's another story. Law enforcement has several options to take home security videos that you've recorded. That can include videos held in the cloud by your security company and even videos you may be keeping in a local hub that you own. It's important to know your rights, know when t

Political Influencers Are Ramping Up Security—and Posting Through It

As news broke that conservative activist Charlie Kirk was shot at an event on a college campus last week, Hasan Piker’s Twitch chat was spiraling. Messages flooded onto the streamer’s channel. “Disavow quickly and vehemently for your own safety,” one chatter urged. “Pleeeeeeaaaase don’t do public debates anymore,” begged another. Piker, one of the most prominent progressive creators online, was set to face Kirk in a live debate at Dartmouth University on September 25. Now, still on air with new

I Went Inside Apple's Labs to See How Apple Watch Connectivity Is Tested

Stepping into the padded vault felt like entering some kind of portal. The sterile white room was lined with jagged, pyramid-shaped foam spires; a cross between a recording studio and some kind of icicle torture chamber straight out of Elsa's castle from the movie Frozen. I glanced down at my phone: no bars. Deep inside Apple's testing labs, I was officially off the grid. I've been reviewing smartwatches for almost a decade, but I've never once stopped to wonder how connectivity actually works
