The mayor of Saint Paul, Minnesota's capital city, has confirmed that the Interlock ransomware gang is responsible for a cyberattack that disrupted many of the city's systems and services in July. On July 29th, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz activated the National Guard in response to the crippling cyberattack that had affected St. Paul's digital services and critical systems. The city requested Minnesota National Guard's cyber protection support due to the cyberattack's impact exceeding St. Paul
Spider-Man might be one of the most beloved heroes of all time, but his comics haven’t exactly been at the top of fans’ adulation in the past few years—or rather, at least Spidey’s primary book, Amazing Spider-Man, hasn’t. Mired in controversy for myriad reasons, even as the book has changed hands and moved into new storytelling eras, disgruntled webheads have spent ages pinning what ails the book on a singular character: Paul Rabin, who might make a pretty decent case for the most unpopular cha
As shooting gets underway on Dune: Part 3, the adaptation of Frank Herbert’s Dune Messiah, returning cast member Jason Momoa is prepping to come back, but not exactly as who you’d think he’d be… or looking the way you’d expect. An Instagram post shows Momoa shaving to mark his return to the Dune franchise, a journey he began six years ago. It’s a stunt to celebrate the anniversary, which began at the same time as his collaboration with environmentally friendly aluminum water bottle purveyors Ma
Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz has activated the state’s National Guard following a cyberattack on the state’s capital, Saint Paul. City officials have not yet disclosed the nature of the cyberattack, but the July 25 breach continues to disrupt city operations and some public services. Saint Paul is one of the largest cities in the U.S. with more than 300,000 residents, and is the latest in a list of major cities targeted by hackers and ransomware gangs in recent years. In a statement on Tuesday, Wal
Minnesota Governor Tim Walz has activated the National Guard in response to a crippling cyberattack that struck the City of Saint Paul, the state's capital, on Friday. The city is currently working with local, state, and federal partners to investigate the attack and restore full functionality, and says that emergency services have been unaffected. However, online payments are currently unavailable, and some services in libraries and recreation centers are temporarily unavailable. "While many
The best Nintendo games do two things. The first is introducing a delightful gaming mechanic — take Ultrahand in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom or Cappy in Super Mario Odyssey for some recent examples. The second is building a world around that mechanic for players to explore. Obviously games are more than one specific tool, and building a compelling game around a good mechanic is no small task. But when it all comes together, look out. You’ve got a game that people will remember for
Lieber Pauli... Read the translation of the letter sent by Werner Heisenberg to Wolfgang Pauli on 9 July 1925. The original letter is preserved in CERN’s Wolfgang Pauli Archive. (Copyright: Heisenberg Society) Dear Pauli, If you believe that I read your letter laughing mockingly, then you are gravely mistaken; quite the contrary – since Helgoland, my views on mechanics have become more radical with each passing day, and it is my firm conviction that Bohr’s theory of the hydrogen atom, in its pre
is a reporter who covers the business, culture, and communities of video games, with a focus on marginalized gamers and the quirky, horny culture of video game communities. The creation of Donkey Kong Bananza started with destruction. “What we were really going for was this gameplay experience that comes from destruction,” Bananza director Kazuya Takahashi says in an interview with The Verge. From that simple premise, Bananza’s creators have built an entire game about breaking stuff. Bananza
More than a decade after the acclaimed Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze, DK is returning with Donkey Kong Bananza to add some much-needed variety to the Switch 2 lineup. The Switch 2 is the fastest-selling console in Nintendo’s history; days after release, it had already sold more than 3.5 million units across the world. Its initial launch lineup—though filled out with third-party games like Cyberpunk 2077 and Yakuza 0 Director’s Cut—has been light on Nintendo first-party games, relying hea
What is the best internet provider in St. Paul? Our broadband experts at CNET have declared -- without a doubt -- that Quantum Fiber is the best internet service provider in St. Paul. It offers unlimited data, fast symmetrical speeds at an affordable price and you won't ever have to worry about contracts, equipment fees or data caps. Unfortunately, there is one big problem: It's only available to around 50% of St. Paul residents. If you're one of the unfortunate few who aren't part of its catch
Nintendo just dropped a ton of details about the next major Switch 2 first-party game. Donkey Kong Bananza was the star of a Nintendo Direct livestream this morning and it was filled to the brim with nifty tidbits to get fans excited about the 3D platformer. The biggest news is the addition of Pauline as DK's sidekick. She goes all the way back to the original Donkey Kong arcade game. Nintendo really pulled a fast one here, as the first trailer showed the sidekick as an anthropomorphic rock of
