Public proof-of-concept attacks demonstrated password capture, session-token theft, UI hijacking, and manipulation of AI tools connected to email.

Windows’ Weather app uses obscene memory – are Linux apps better?

I flummoxed to read a report about how much memory Microsoft’s Weather app uses on Windows 11 – more than 1GB just to render what is, ostensibly, a fancy table of stats. I was less flummoxed to check the memory usage of Mousam, my current go-to weather app on Linux. It the same job for under a third of the Windows figure and, in my opinion, has a much nicer design too. Not everyone running Windows 11 will spot memory usage as high as that reported by Windows Latest, but on my low-power Chuwi laptop (the same one I checked […]

«МойОфис» закрыл офисы в Петербурге и Иннополисе, штат компании сократился примерно в четыре раза

Российский разработчик офисного ПО «МойОфис» (ООО «Новые облачные технологии», НОТ) закрыл центры разработки в Санкт-Петербурге и Иннополисе. Об этом «Ведомостям» рассказали действующий и бывшие сотрудники компании. Гендиректор НОТ Вячеслав Закоржевский подтвердил закрытие «нескольких офисов», не уточнив их расположение. Оставшиеся сотрудники теперь работают в московском офисе основного владельца компании — «Лаборатории Касперского» в бизнес-центре «Олимпия Парк».
Закрытие площадок стало продолжением масштабной реструктуризации, начавшейся весной 2026 года. Особенно сильно она затронула персонал. По данным председателя профсоюзной организации НОТ Артёма Семёнова, 26 марта в компании работали 1073 человека, а к 22 июня их осталось 278. По информации источников «Ведомостей», к началу августа штат составлял уже около 250–270 сотрудников.

📰 I ran a Pi-hole for a week and was genuinely disturbed by how much my TV phones home

I was getting tired of the ads and promotional content plastered across my smart TV’s interface. I’d already set up a Pi-hole on a Raspberry Pi 4 to block the trackers that feed those ad profiles. So plugging my LG C2 into the network and pointing it at the Pi-hole for DNS felt like the obvious next step.
