| Move over, SolarWinds: 30,000 orgs’ email hacked via Microsoft Exchange Server flaws Posted: 05 Mar 2021 06:22 PM PST  Four exploits found in Microsoft's Exchange Server software have reportedly led to over 30,000 US governmental and commercial organizations having their emails hacked, according to a report by KrebsOnSecurity. Wired is also reporting "tens of thousands of email servers" hacked. The exploits have been patched by Microsoft, but security experts talking to Krebs say that the detection and cleanup process will be a massive effort for the thousands of state and city governments, fire and police departments, school districts, financial institutions, and other organizations that were affected. According to Microsoft, the vulnerabilities allowed hackers to gain access to email accounts, and also gave them the ability to install malware that... |
| Posted: 05 Mar 2021 05:07 PM PST  There's nothing like an explosion of blockchain news to leave you thinking, "Um… what's going on here?" That's the feeling I've experienced while reading about Grimes getting millions of dollars for NFTs or about Nyan Cat being sold as one. And by the time we all thought we sort of knew what the deal was, the founder of Twitter put an autographed tweet up for sale as an NFT. You might be wondering: what is an NFT, anyhow? After literal hours of reading, I think I know. I also think I'm going to cry. Okay, let's start with the basics. What is an NFT? What does NFT stand for?Non-fungible token. That doesn't make it any clearer. Right, sorry. "Non-fungible" more or less means that it's unique and can't be replaced with something else. For... |
| Please do not give billionaire Jack Dorsey money for his tweet Posted: 05 Mar 2021 04:38 PM PST  Jack Dorsey, the billionaire co-founder and CEO of Twitter, a man who stans bitcoin right on his Twitter bio, is attempting to sell his very first tweet as an NFT — a digital good that lives on the Ethereum blockchain. You're probably familiar with the famous tweet, "just setting up my twttr":
Despite the fact that this tweet has been publicly available as a free digital item to look at whenever anybody wanted for nearly 15 years, Dorsey is now trying to sell it as an NFT, or "non-fungible token," through a platform called Valuables. — jack (@jack) March 6, 2021 As you would rightly expect, bidding is already north of $80K. What does "buying" this... |
| NASA’s Perseverance rover scoots around on Mars for the first time Posted: 05 Mar 2021 04:20 PM PST  Perseverance, the car-sized rover NASA landed on Mars last month, has taken its first spin on the rocky surface of Jezero Crater, NASA announced today. The rover's six wheels drove about 21 feet to carry out a key mobility test on Thursday, as engineers back on Earth prepare to execute the mission's core science objectives. The rover's six aluminum wheels left tracks on the Martian dirt — as captured by one of its on-board cameras — after driving straight for 13 feet, then turning around to back up 8 feet. Anais Zarifian, Perseverance's mobility testbed engineer, told reporters it went "incredibly well" and performed better than it did during pre-launch tests on Earth. |
| The SEC is dragging AT&T to court for illegally duping analysts into lowering expectations Posted: 05 Mar 2021 03:54 PM PST  The US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is suing AT&T for providing nonpublic information to 20 different analyst firms so they would lower revenue estimates ahead of earnings, according to a press release. That let AT&T "beat" expectations for the quarter when the information-sharing took place, turning what could have been some nasty headlines in the financial press into a win instead. According to the SEC's complaint (PDF), AT&T learned in March 2016 that its quarterly results would fall short of estimates due in part to "a steeper-than-expected decline in smartphone sales." As you might recall, we used to live in a world where carriers like AT&T subsidized part of the cost of your smartphone, but by then AT&T had passed that... |
| How to run a battery life report on your Windows laptop Posted: 05 Mar 2021 02:49 PM PST  When my editor told me about Window's built-in battery report, my first thought was: "How have I never heard of this before? Also, that sounds pretty useful!" So I looked at the guide he sent (from Laptop Magazine) and tried it out. It ended up being just as interesting as it sounded, so I figured I'd share, in case you also haven't come across this handy built-in tool. Windows has been keeping track of how your laptop's battery is doing since it was installed. The report, which you can run using just two command prompt commands, will show how many cycles you've used on your battery and how it's been used in the past three days. It will also give you a picture of what Windows estimates your battery life should be versus what it actually... |
| Here’s a first look at Mark Cuban’s podcasting platform Fireside Posted: 05 Mar 2021 02:31 PM PST  Last month, The Verge broke news of Mark Cuban and Falon Fatemi's new app Fireside, which promises to deliver a "next-gen podcast platform," and today, we can provide a better sense of the app's functionality and interface. It's currently in beta on iOS with a limited number of testers, most of whom appear to work in venture capital or as podcasters. However, their chats are visible to anyone, even non-users, through a browser, and from this desktop view, as well as screenshots of the app that The Verge has viewed, we can get a sense of what Fireside is trying to achieve. Broadly, the app is best described as a hybrid between Spotify's Anchor software and Clubhouse. Although it prioritizes live conversation, like Clubhouse, it tries to... |
| Ford recalls some of the first Mustang Mach-E SUVs due to loose bolts Posted: 05 Mar 2021 01:51 PM PST  Ford is recalling dozens of the first Mustang Mach-E deliveries after it discovered loose bolts during the quality checks that are holding up shipments. "[S]ome vehicles may have subframe bolts that the supplier did not tighten to specification," Ford wrote Friday afternoon. "While the issue in affected vehicles is not to Ford's standards, the company is not aware of any accidents or injuries related to this condition." Ford says 1,258 Mustang Mach-Es are affected in the US, as well as 90 in Canada, but that the overwhelming majority of those have not been shipped to customers yet. "Fewer than 75 customers who have already taken delivery" will have to bring their Mustang Mach-E in to get fixed, according to the company. Ford says it... |
| YouTube has terminated five Myanmar military-run channels as political unrest continues Posted: 05 Mar 2021 12:43 PM PST  YouTube terminated five Myanmar military channels from its platform on Friday, Reuters reports. The removals include YouTube channels for the government-run Myanma Radio and Television (MRTV) network and the military-owned Myawaddy Media used to spread military propaganda in Myanmar. YouTube's action is the platform's first major intervention following the military coup that was staged in February and the subsequent military crackdowns against protesters that have left at least 38 dead. "We have terminated a number of channels and removed several videos from YouTube in accordance with our community guidelines and applicable laws," a YouTube spokesperson tells The Verge. Prior to the coup, the company also terminated 34 channels used as... |
| A Silicon Valley school is using virtual escape rooms to evaluate prospective students Posted: 05 Mar 2021 12:24 PM PST  Applying to an elite middle school sounds like a stressful experience, and I'm sure COVID-19 doesn't help. With things like open houses, campus tours, and in-person interviews off the table, applicants have fewer chances to experience their prospective schools — and admissions offices have fewer chances to meet their prospective students. One San Jose private school has come up with a unique solution: The Harker School, self-described as "one of the nation's top college prep schools," is putting teams of sixth grade applicants through a virtual escape room. Over a Zoom call, the 11-year-olds work together to solve a series of Harker-themed puzzles, and admissions officers observe their behavior. Harker let me go through the game... |
