The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) warns that criminals are impersonating U.S. officials in phishing attacks targeting businesses and individuals who request city and county planning and zoning permits. In a public service announcement published on Monday, the bureau said that the criminals behind this campaign are identifying potential victims using publicly available information, which also makes their malicious messages seem legitimate and helps them trick suspicious targets. “Individuals and businesses with active applications for land-use permits are being targeted by criminals impersonating city and county planning and zoning board officials, fraudulently requesting fees associated with these permits,” the FBI…

Like many people, you’re worried about losing your job to AI. Where do your “old school” PPC skills fit as AI agents take over more of the work? Relax. It’s not that binary. The focus is shifting toward data and strategy. From the outside, it looks like media buying is being automated away. But let’s set the record straight: it isn’t. The role is shifting (again). I’ve been working in PPC for over 15 years, and there’s nothing to be afraid of. The real question is: are you riding the wave or being left behind? Let’s map the current PPC…
I’ve been in the laser engraving world for nearly half a decade, having spent most of that time teaching others how to use their machines. In that time I’ve come across a few projects that are both beginner-friendly and great sellers for me. Here are five incredibly easy (yet awesome) laser engraving projects that cost me less than $10 (and some cost less than $1).

A new variant of the ClickFix attack evades detection by instructing victims to use Windows Terminal instead of the Run dialog, Microsoft warns. Like traditional ClickFix attacks, the campaign relies on fake CAPTCHA pages, troubleshooting prompts, and verification lures to trick victims into executing malicious PowerShell commands. What sets the new campaign apart, however, is the fact that victims are instructed to open Windows Terminal directly, instead of relying on the Windows Run dialog. “Rather than the traditional Win + R → paste → execute technique, this campaign instructs targets to use the Windows + X → I shortcut to…
If you’re using your iPad or Android tablet to take notes, even if you’re using the low-latency (and expensive) Apple or Samsung tablet stylus, you’re not getting the best note-taking experience possible when compared to an e-ink tablet. This is because writing on glass is inherently less satisfying than the textured surfaces found on comparable e-ink note tablets. Not only that, but by using an iPad or Android tablet, you’re opening yourself to a world of distraction versus the focused and limited functionality of an e-ink tablet. And while full-function tablets from Apple and Samsung have battery life that can…
We are officially living in the AI era, and as I explore the world of new AI apps at my own pace, I’m discovering some tools that are not only worth using but also worth sharing with the ShoutMeLoud community because they genuinely make our lives simpler. There is always this itch to build my own AI tools using something like OpenClaw or Claude, and that’s something I encourage many of you to explore as well. At the same time, there are several apps being developed with strong focus and that have already built active communities around them. One such…
Marketers are abuzz about OpenAI putting ads inside ChatGPT. That’s the wrong thing to obsess over. It’s like arguing about banner placement while the entire commercial layer of the internet is being rebuilt underneath us. Right now, the debate is framed as a familiar binary: ads vs. no ads. OpenAI is testing sponsored results inside conversational experiences. Anthropic is positioning Claude as a trusted, ad-free assistant. Predictably, the industry response has been to ask: “Where will the ads go?” Look at what Google, Microsoft, and Meta are actually shipping, and the pattern is hard to miss: the big shift isn’t…
