Steam's censorship issues have broken PayPal support in some regions

engadget.com Unknown 2025-12-01 00:42:23

If you've been unable to pay with PayPal on Steam, Valve says the limitation has to do with issues one of PayPal's banking partners has with content on the platform, according to Rock Paper Shotgun. Users have noticed PayPal was disabled in some regions as far back as July, and the issue seems like it might be out of both Valve and PayPal's hands. "In early July 2025, PayPal notified Valve that their acquiring bank for payment transactions in certain currencies was immediately terminating the p

Booking.com phishing campaign uses sneaky 'ん' character to trick you

bleepingcomputer.com Unknown 2025-11-30 16:23:45

Threat actors are leveraging a Unicode character to make phishing links appear like legitimate Booking.com links in a new campaign distributing malware. The attack makes use of the Japanese hiragana character, ん, which can, on some systems, appear as a forward slash and make a phishing URL appear realistic to a person at a casual glance. BleepingComputer has further come across an Intuit phishing campaign using a lookalike domain using the letter L instead of 'i' in Intuit. Booking.com phishi

Big Tech's A.I. Data Centers Are Driving Up Electricity Bills for Everyone

news.ycombinator.com Ivan Penn 2025-11-30 23:54:57

But even with their expressed good will, getting the companies to make consumers whole will not be easy because determining how much large users like data centers should pay is not straightforward. The business of keeping America’s lights on is mostly about two things: supplying reliable electricity and figuring out what to charge to deliver it. In recent years, big tech companies have inserted themselves into debates over both. They lobby lawmakers and regulators, and they are pitching their o

I have the fortunate privilege to be part of the ISO C Standard mailing list, and recently a thread kicked off about Lambdas and what their need is in the C Community. That thread was in response to an ongoing push by Jens Gustedt’s proposal N2736, where Gustedt is building steam to put a proper function + data type into the C Standard at some point. What kicked off in that thread was a lot of talking about nested functions, blocks, statement expressions, whether we even need the ability to have

‘Star Trek’ Is Born on ‘Strange New Worlds’

gizmodo.com James Whitbrook 2025-12-01 00:15:05

A few weeks ago in Strange New Worlds‘ up-and-down third season, “A Space Adventure Hour” delivered a deeply unsubtle paean to the creation of Star Trek. This week, Strange New Worlds does much the same: but this time the birth of Star Trek is within the text itself, making for a much more interesting lens on the birth of an icon. From the moment that it opens, it becomes clear that “The Sehlat Who Ate Its Tail” (named for a Vulcan idiom that Spock uses later on) is not going to be a typical ep
