Paramount’s ‘Star Trek’ Focus Is Back at the Movies—Including ‘Star Trek 4’ (Again)

gizmodo.com Cheryl Eddy 2025-12-04 06:18:43

There’s been no shortage of Star Trek for fans in recent years—provided, of course, they subscribe to Paramount+. But as the sci-fi stalwart’s number of streaming series has dwindled to just Strange New Worlds (which has an endpoint set after its fifth season) and the upcoming Starfleet Academy, the studio behind the franchise is seemingly ramping up hopes for a big-screen return. If that sounds like a promise you’ve heard before, you’re not wrong. The most recent reboot or Kelvin Timeline (or

New downgrade attack can bypass FIDO auth in Microsoft Entra ID

bleepingcomputer.com Unknown 2025-12-04 11:14:23

Security researchers have created a new FIDO downgrade attack against Microsoft Entra ID that tricks users into authenticating with weaker login methods, making them susceptible to phishing and session hijacking. These weaker login channels are vulnerable to adversary-in-the-middle phishing attacks that employ tools like Evilginx, enabling attackers to snatch valid session cookies and hijack the accounts.

DOGE Has Wasted Billions While Saving Only a Fraction of What It Claims: Reports

gizmodo.com Lucas Ropek 2025-12-04 11:15:21

The Trump Administration’s Department of Government Efficiency has been a project largely defined by ever-diminishing expectations. At the outset of DOGE’s journey, its chief operator, Elon Musk, famously claimed, in a bout of wild optimism, that he hoped to cut “at least” $2 trillion out of the federal budget. Not long after the election, Musk reduced his ambitions to $1 trillion. Throughout the first few months of Trump’s second term, DOGE claimed to be saving Americans billions, but analyses

Monarch Butterflies Are Losing Their Navigational Abilities. You Can Guess Why

gizmodo.com Ellyn Lapointe 2025-12-04 16:00:43

Each fall, millions of eastern North American monarch butterflies migrate up to 3,000 miles south to the mountains of central Mexico, then return to their northern range in the spring. These winged insects rely on a complex navigation system to go to and from their overwintering sites, and new research suggests climate change may be messing with it. Monarch butterflies have two distinct biological “compasses.” The primary one infers direction based on their circadian rhythm and the position of

Doctors Were Worse at Spotting Cancer After Leaning on AI, Study Finds

gizmodo.com Aj Dellinger 2025-12-04 16:45:32

Artificial intelligence tools have been shown to help doctors detect pre-cancerous growths in the colon—but don’t even think about taking those tools away once you’ve introduced them. A new study published this week in The Lancet found that doctors who are given AI tools to assist with identifying potential cancer risks in patients get worse at making those same observations when they go back to doing it without AI’s help.

When Nintendo announced that it was adding GameCube games to its (inexplicably Switch 2-only) Nintendo Switch Online offering, people were understandably excited about the likes of Super Mario Sunshine and The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker joining the service.

Mesmerizing Hypnoloid, a Kinetic Desktop Sculpture

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-12-01 02:20:00

This Hypnoloid object is sort of the opposite of a spinning top. Whereas a top contacts the surface it's balancing on only at its point, the Hypnoloid contacts the surface with every square millimeter of its surface area. The shape is called an oloid, and it's a bit difficult to understand. The 20th-century German sculptor, inventor and mathematician Paul Schatz, who discovered it, describes it thusly: "If the distance of two centers of disk is equal to the radius, then the convex hull produce
