androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-10-01 11:45:33

NotebookLM, the note-taking and research app powered by Gemini, received a big update this week. That update brought a bevy of new learning tools, such as flashcards, quizzes, more Audio Overview formats, and so on. While there’s a lot for NotebookLM users to be excited about, it’s not all good news. Users are starting to notice that the update has quietly removed two commonly used features. This week’s update introduced a variety of changes to NotebookLM, but arguably the biggest change was to

Trump’s New Labor Stats Guy is a Jan 6 ‘Bystander’ Accused of Unhinged Posts

gizmodo.com Lucas Ropek 2025-10-07 03:05:16

President Trump recently fired Erika McEntarfer, the head of the Bureau of Labor Statistics, accusing her of having “rigged” job reports. In her place, Trump has selected E.J. Antoni, a former Heritage Foundation economist who was photographed at the January 6th debacle (but who claims he was just a “bystander” to the chaos) and who, according to reports from CNN and Wired, formerly ran a Twitter account that posted all sorts of gnarly stuff.

Google says Gmail security is “strong and effective” as it denies major breach

The sky is falling, and Gmail has supposedly been hacked to bits by malicious parties unknown. Or has it? Reports circulated last week claiming that Gmail was the subject of a major data breach, citing a series of warnings Google has distributed and increasing reports of phishing attacks. The hysteria was short-lived, though. In a brief post on its official blog, Google says that Gmail's security is "strong and effective," and reports to the contrary are mistaken.

Reports from Reddit and Google forums mention outages in Kenya, Bangladesh, Pakistan, and other countries.

No, a Windows update probably didn’t brick your SSD

For the last week or two, reports have been circulating that recent Windows 11 updates (specifically KB5063878 and KB5062660) were causing some SSDs using Phison controllers to fail. Tech influencers on YouTube and TikTok were quick to jump on the reports of corrupted data and disappearing drives, laying the blame squarely at Microsoft’s feet.

It turns out it’s actually possible for a corporation to drag its feet for so long that even the Trump administration takes issue with it. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration announced that it will investigate Tesla’s habit of taking months to submit accident reports that involve the company’s driver-assistance technology, according to a report from Reuters.

In the wild, catfish lead elusive lives, evading detection from scientists hoping to learn more about their lifestyles. And so, when police received reports of weird catfish clumps at the bottom of a waterfall, they immediately contacted a team of scientists to do some detective work. After watching the fish for about 20 hours, the researchers arrived at the conclusion that these Rhyacoglanis paranensis—an orange-and-black species of bumblebee catfish common to South America—were scaling steep,
