While the model remains available to external customers via GitHub Copilot and Foundry, internal access has been removed from the company's model selection tools. This decision follows a change in Anthropic's policy that allows the retention of user prompts and outputs for up to 30 days.

Microsoft Entra adds device soft-delete and cloud-native sync migration

Microsoft Entra has introduced a soft-delete feature for device objects in public preview, allowing administrators to recover accidentally deleted Entra joined or registered devices within a set retention period. This safety mechanism preserves critical identity data and security artifacts, reducing the operational risk of permanent data loss. Additionally, Entra Connect Sync now officially supports Windows Server 2025, though Microsoft is encouraging a transition toward the cloud-native Entra Cloud Sync for simplified hybrid identity management.

📰 Gaming handhelds can't compete in ranked matches, and the joystick is the reason why

You might see promotional videos of gamers playing Apex Legends, Call of Duty: Warzone, or Counter-Strike natively on a mobile Windows or Linux handheld, pulling a smooth competitive 120fps. This is aspirational marketing. The implication is clear: this device can replace a competitive desktop environment on the go. The reality is far different; you jump into a ranked lobby, pull down your sights, and try to make a tiny 2px tracking adjustment...

📰 Ubuntu 26.04 is the first LTS that feels like it chose the future instead of hedging its bets

For years, Ubuntu shipped with what felt like a foot entrenched in two eras of the Linux desktop. Wayland has far and away become the default for virtually all distros, but X11 sat just a couple of clicks away on the login screen. The installer, while offering modern defaults, still had so many legacy options. You could definitely make an argument for having such variety in an LTS, but this is exactly what makes Ubuntu 26.04 feel so different to...

Власти США предписали Anthropic приостановить доступ к AI-моделям Fable 5 и Mythos 5

Компания Anthropic объявила об экстренном отключении доступа к AI-моделям Fable 5 и Mythos 5 для всех пользователей после получения от правительства США директивы об экспортном контроле, изданной со ссылкой на полномочия в области национальной безопасности и без предоставления детальных пояснений. Директива запрещает доступ к указанным моделям любым иностранным гражданам, как на территории США, так и за её пределами, включая иностранных сотрудников компании Anthropic, в результате чего компания была вынуждена полностью отключить модели для обеспечения соблюдения требований. Доступ к остальным моделям Anthropic не затронут.
