There was a time when the Android community was obsessed with modding and customizing their devices. A seemingly endless stream of custom ROMs allowed you to replace your phone’s default OS. For an Android enthusiast, it was like walking into a candy shop. Sadly, those golden days of Android are in the past, but I like reminiscing about their charm. CyanogenMod One of the big OGs CyanogenMod was the first Android ROM I ever tried, and I used it daily for the better part of a year. I had a Samsung Galaxy Europa in middle school, which stopped receiving official…

Network firewall distribution IPFire released Core Update 200, marking the 200th incremental update to the 2.29 branch. The release bundles a kernel upgrade, a beta domain blocklist service, security patches for OpenSSL and glibc, and a range of component updates. The kernel has been rebased on Linux 6.18.7 LTS, bringing updated hardware security mitigations alongside network throughput and latency improvements. Linux developers deprecated ReiserFS support in this kernel line, and IPFire installations running on that filesystem cannot apply the update without first reinstalling on a supported filesystem. IPFire DBL enters beta The release introduces IPFire DBL, a domain blocklist the…
How frequently do pages ranking in the SERPs get cited in AI Overviews?We analyzed 1.9M citations last year in an attempt to answer that question.But, as with everything AI-related, a lot has changed since then.For instance, as of January 2026, AI Overviews are now powered by Gemini 3 to better answer searchers’ long-tail questions—having previously relied on earlier Gemini models, including 2.5 variants.Since that last study we’ve also improved our parsing methodology in Ahrefs, so that we can see even more of the citations that appear in AI Overviews.So, we decided it was time to update our findings to better answer that…
Tech loves a clean narrative; Genius builds the thing, the thing changes the world, everyone claps, and roll credits. The story of Terry A. Davis refuses to behave that way. Because yes, he built an entire operating system largely by himself. Yes, he wrote his own programming language to go with it. Yes, the technical achievement still makes seasoned developers raise an eyebrow and quietly mutter, “okay, that’s… a lot.” But this is not a triumphant startup story. It’s messier than that. More human. And, at points, genuinely uncomfortable to sit with. TempleOS didn’t come out of a polished lab…
Security researchers warn that hacktivists and state-linked groups are using DDoS, phishing and other tactics against critical infrastructure and governments.
SAN FRANCISCO – Electronic Frontier Foundation Executive Director Cindy Cohn will launch her memoir, Privacy’s Defender: My Thirty-Year Fight Against Digital Surveillance (MIT Press, March 10), with events in San Francisco and Berkeley before embarking on a national book tour. In Privacy’s Defender, Cohn weaves her own personal story with her role as a leading legal voice representing the rights and interests of technology users, innovators, whistleblowers, and researchers during the Crypto Wars of the 1990s, battles over NSA’s dragnet internet spying revealed in the 2000s, and the fight against FBI gag orders. The book will be Cohn’s swansong…
When we’re talking about grounding, we mean fact-checking the hallucinations of planet destroying robots and tech bros. If you want a non-stupid opening line, when models accept they don’t know something, they ground results in an attempt to fact check themselves. Happy now? TL;DR LLMs don’t search or store sources or individual URLs; they generate answers from pre-supplied content. RAG anchors LLMs in specific knowledge backed by factual, authoritative, and current data. It reduces hallucinations. Retraining a foundation model or fine-tuning it is computationally expensive and resource-intensive. Grounding results is far cheaper. With RAG, enterprises can use internal, authoritative data…

The United Kingdom’s National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) alerted British organizations to a heightened risk of Iranian cyberattacks amid the ongoing conflict in the Middle East. While there is no significant change in the direct cyber threat from Iran to the UK, the NCSC said this could change at any time, given how quickly the situation is developing. As explained in a Monday advisory, this warning was primarily issued for organisations and entities with a presence or supply chains in the Middle East. As the NCSC added, even though most of Iran is currently dealing with a widespread Internet blackout…
