I’ve been writing about e-readers a lot in the last few weeks, and I’ve been enjoying doing so. Diving back into reading and e-readers has been an absolute blast, and I’ve loved every minute I’ve spent digging into them and reading good books. But I know that many of you disagree with me. Not that e-readers are bad, by any means, but more that they’re not needed. You can download the Kindle, Kobo, or Play Books app on your phone, making your smartphone just as good as a dedicated e-reader for reading. I contend very strongly that you’re wrong. Here…

Amazon’s Big Spring Sale doesn’t officially start until Wednesday, but the retail giant is already dropping the prices on its own tech ahead of the event. One of the best early deals we’ve spotted is the lowest price ever on the Amazon Fire TV Stick HD. It’s 51% off today, dropping it to just $16.99. Amazon Fire TV Stick HD for $16.99 ($18 off)At this price, the Fire TV Stick HD is about as low-risk a way as you’ll find to smarten up an older TV or just add a bit more flexibility to a spare screen. It’s the latest…
I’ve been playing with OpenClaw for a while now. And I’ll be honest — I couldn’t have imagined what it would feel like. Not just creating content. But accessing it. Updating it. Having a system that actually knows my life, business and works alongside me. It’s mind-blowing. And I’m just scratching the surface. So when Jensen Huang stepped on stage at NVIDIA GTC 2026 and called OpenClaw “as important as Linux for agentic AI” — I wasn’t surprised. I was nodding. What even is OpenClaw? Think of it as the operating system for AI agents. Not a tool. Not a…
Ravie LakshmananMar 21, 2026Cyber Espionage / Threat Intelligence Threat actors affiliated with Russian Intelligence Services are conducting phishing campaigns to compromise commercial messaging applications (CMAs) like WhatsApp and Signal to seize control of accounts belonging to individuals with high intelligence value, the U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) and Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) said Friday. “The campaign targets individuals of high intelligence value, including current and former U.S. government officials, military personnel, political figures, and journalists,” FBI Director Kash Patel said in a post on X. “Globally, this effort has resulted in unauthorized access to thousands of individual…
AI bots could outnumber humans on the web by 2027, according to Cloudflare CEO Matthew Prince, as agent-driven browsing explodes alongside generative AI adoption. Prince made the prediction at SXSW, warning that bots are already reshaping how the internet is used — and how it’s monetized. Why we care. Search is shifting from human clicks to AI-generated answers. If bots become the web’s primary “users,” you’ll need to reshape your strategy to ensure AI systems can access, trust, and use your content. The details. Prince said AI agents generate far more web activity than humans because they gather information differently.…
If you’ve watched videos on the internet any time over the past year or two, you’ve encountered AI-generated content (even if you didn’t realize it). While some of it is convincing, a lot of it is obvious. Like, I’m guessing no one thought those dramatic narrative videos of people made of fruit were painstakingly animated by hand. This type of artificially generated content has been lovingly (or not so lovingly) labeled “AI slop,” which sums it up quite well: It’s meaningless drivel, made with little effort or investment by some AI generator, that’s raking up real money by going viral…
The U.S. Justice Department and international partners have disrupted four IoT botnets linked to DDoS attacks that reached 30 terabits per second, among the largest ever recorded. The four botnets targeted in the operation—Aisuru, KimWolf, JackSkid and Mossad—infected millions of devices worldwide, primarily IoT systems such as digital video recorders, web cameras and WiFi routers. KimWolf and JackSkid targeted devices designed to be shielded from direct internet exposure, compromising and bringing them under the control of their operators. The infected systems were then folded into a cybercrime-as-a-service model, where access to the botnets was sold to other actors. Both the…
Nothing ruins a professional Excel report like a “Summary” line floating on its own page when you send it to a printer or PDF. While you could manually adjust your print area for every update, the real pro move is automation. Here’s how to use the OFFSET function to create a print area that truly thinks for itself. The sloppy PDF problem The frustration of the “as-is” gamble Credit: Tony Phillips/How-To Geek You might be thinking, “Why bother? Can’t I just hit “Print” and let Excel figure it out?” You could, but relying on Excel’s default printing is a gamble. To…
The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) has ordered federal agencies to patch a maximum-severity vulnerability, CVE-2026-20131, in Cisco Secure Firewall Management Center (FMC) by Sunday, March 22. Cisco published a security bulletin about the flaw on March 4, urging system administrators to apply the security updates as soon as possible and warning that no workarounds are available. The Cisco Secure Firewall Management Center (FMC) is a centralized administration system for critical Cisco network security appliances, such as firewalls, application control, intrusion prevention, URL filtering, and malware protection. “A vulnerability in the web-based management interface of Cisco Secure Firewall Management Center (FMC)…
Arctic Wolf has detected suspicious activity in client networks that appears tied to the exploitation of CVE-2025-32975, a critical authentication bypass flaw affecting unpatched Quest KACE Systems Management Appliance (SMA) instances exposed to the internet. KACE SMA is an on-premises tool used for centralized endpoint management, including asset inventory, software distribution, patching, and monitoring. CVE-2025-32975, which Quest patched in May 2025, allows unauthenticated threat actors to impersonate legitimate users, potentially leading to full administrative takeover of the appliance. According to Arctic Wolf, attackers appear to have exploited CVE-2025-32975 to gain initial access to a system, after which they achieved administrative…
