Lenovo abruptly cancels some Legion Go 2 preorders due to overwhelming demand

From a disastrous AMA on Monday to disappointing Legion Go 2 preorder customers on Friday, the Lenovo team is having a hell of a week. To kick things off, the Lenovo Legion team hosted an AMA on Reddit revolving around its gaming handheld launch. The Legion Go 2 generated a ton of hype, being Lenovo's next-gen gaming handheld with more powerful specs and a higher price tag, but the team only answered 10 questions before abandoning the thread. On Wednesday, Lenovo apologized for not being prepare

PyPI Blog: Token Exfiltration Campaign via GitHub Actions Workflows

Token Exfiltration Campaign via GitHub Actions Workflows Summary I recently responded to an attack campaign where malicious actors injected code into GitHub Actions workflows attempting to steal PyPI publishing tokens. PyPI was not compromised, and no PyPI packages were published by the attackers. Attackers targeted a wide variety of repositories, many of which had PyPI tokens stored as GitHub secrets, modifying their workflows to send those tokens to external servers. While the attackers suc

Xmonad seeking help for Wayland port (2023)

2023-10-06 Wayland We on the XMonad devteam (Tomáš, Tony, Yecine, and myself) have been collecting contributions for the past two years with an eye toward paying someone to work on a port of XMonad to Wayland, since none of us is up to the task. We think we now have enough contributions coming in monthly to pay for someone to work with us on it. Problem is, we have no idea who can do this. So this is a call for help, looking for someone who can write it. There is an existing project but it’s

The Nintendo Switch 2 is for sale on Amazon, no invite required

Getting your hands on Nintendo's latest console just got easier, as Amazon is now listing the Nintendo Switch 2 for sale outright, no invitation needed.

Microsoft Is Torpedoing Xbox With Yet Another Price Hike

Microsoft is raising prices on Xbox consoles… again. The previous price hike shifted expectations for both the Xbox Series S and Series X. The new pricing structure demands so much money from consumer wallets it seems nobody in their right mind would buy an Xbox in this day and age. The new pricing structure begins Oct. 3. In a post to its support page, Microsoft blamed today’s “macroeconomic environment,” which is a longer way to say “Trump tariffs.” All consoles are demanding at least $50 mor

Despite congressional threat, National Academies releases new climate report

Earlier this year, the Environmental Protection Agency announced that it was going to reject the work it had done back in 2009, when it first determined that greenhouse gas emissions posed a threat to the US public. While it laid out a number of reasons for revisiting its earlier work, one of those focused on the science: The EPA's original decision was over 15 years old, and it claimed our understanding of climate change had itself changed since then. The National Academies of Science (NAS) de

Steam will stop running on Windows 32-bit in January 2026

Valve has announced that its Steam digital distribution service will drop support for 32-bit versions of Windows starting January 2026. Two years earlier, in January 2024, Steam also dropped support for Windows 7, Windows 8, and Windows 8.1, recommending users to upgrade to a newer operating system. Although Steam will soon stop running on Windows 10 32-bit (the only 32-bit Windows version still supported), it will continue to be supported on Windows 10 64-bit, and 32-bit games will remain pla

Mega evolutions made their debut in Pokemon X and Y over a decade ago, and they quickly proved to be one of the most appealing new features. These powerful Pokemon forms are temporary

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

A Cooking Instructor Reveals 5 Foods You Should Never Put in a Nonstick Pan

Nonstick cookware serves a purpose in the kitchen, but it shouldn't be your go-to pan for every task. When used incorrectly, nonstick surfaces can ruin dishes by preventing proper browning and searing of meats and vegetables. Certain foods can also compromise the coating, reducing the pan's durability and potentially contaminating your meals with flaking nonstick material. As much as we love the easy cleanup, most foods fare better in a stainless-steel, carbon-steel, or cast-iron skillet. I tur
