Damien Wilde / Android AuthorityTL;DR Google could be gearing up to add a cursor mode to Gboard for easier cursor movement and swiping. The Gboard app already has a glide cursor control feature, but it does not support easy line changing or scrolling. By holding down the space bar, users will be able to activate a virtual trackpad for simple cursor movement in any direction. Gboard is a highly customizable Android keyboard with vast gesture support, including glide typing, trail, and delete. To move the cursor around in a text field, Android users can tap and hold the insertion point…

Ravie LakshmananFeb 13, 2026Cloud Security / Cyber Espionage A previously unknown threat actor tracked as UAT-9921 has been observed leveraging a new modular framework called VoidLink in its campaigns targeting the technology and financial services sectors, according to findings from Cisco Talos. “This threat actor seems to have been active since 2019, although they have not necessarily used VoidLink over the duration of their activity,” researchers Nick Biasini, Aaron Boyd, Asheer Malhotra, and Vitor Ventura said. “UAT-9921 uses compromised hosts to install VoidLink command-and-control (C2), which are then used to launch scanning activities both internal and external to the network.”…
Google Ads is rolling out a feature that lets advertisers calculate conversion value for new customers based on a target return on ad spend (ROAS), automatically generating a suggested value instead of relying on manual estimates. The update is designed for campaigns using new customer acquisition goals, where advertisers want to bid more aggressively to attract first-time buyers. How it works. Advertisers enter their desired ROAS target for new customers, and Google Ads proposes a conversion value aligned with that goal. The system removes some of the guesswork involved in estimating how much a new customer should be worth in…
Credit: Mr. Tempter – Shutterstock Spending time in a sauna can feel good, but it can also entail a little bit of suffering; after all, if the weather outside were the same as the temperature in a sauna, you’d probably want to hide out in the air conditioning all day. There’s something about unpleasant bodily experiences that makes us think they must be good for us, somehow, and so the sauna has gained a healthful reputation that it doesn’t entirely deserve. Here’s a rundown of what a sauna can and can’t do for you.Saunas don’t burn fatIt is technically true…
Thus, he said, companies should set up a business risk program with a governing body that defines and manages those risks, monitoring AI for behavior changes. Reframe how AI is managed Sanchit Vir Gogia, chief analyst at Greyhound Research, said addressing this problem requires executives to first reframe the structural questions. “Most enterprises still talk about AI inside operational environments as if it were an analytics layer, something clever sitting on top of infrastructure. That framing is already outdated,” he said. “The moment an AI system influences a physical process, even indirectly, it stops being an analytics tool, it becomes…
Brutus is an open-source, multi-protocol credential testing tool written in pure Go. Designed to replace legacy tools that have long frustrated penetration testers with dependency headaches and integration gaps, Brutus ships as a single binary with zero external dependencies and native support for the JSON-based reconnaissance pipelines that define offensive security. Solving a real workflow problem Credential testing should be straightforward: you have a list of services and a set of credentials, and you need to find out what works. In practice, operators spend more time wrangling dependencies, parsing inconsistent output, and writing glue scripts than actually testing credentials. Tools…
Blank buttons are the bane of the automotive industry. You know the ones that take up space on your center console but don’t actually do anything. They’re little more than a subtle reminder that you didn’t pay extra for a feature, which is just one more reason you might want to get rid of them. But did you know there are plenty of things you can do with these blank buttons? Whether your goal is to tidy them up visually or repurpose them for something useful, here are some creative ways to put that blank button to good use. Mount…
A new variation of the fake recruiter campaign from North Korean threat actors is targeting JavaScript and Python developers with cryptocurrency-related tasks. The activity has been ongoing since at least May 2025 and is characterized by modularity, which allows the threat actor to quickly resume it in case of partial compromise. The bad actor relies on packages published on the npm and PyPi registries that act as downloaders for a remote access trojan (RAT). In total, researchers found 192 malicious packages related to this campaign, which they dubbed ‘Graphalgo’. Researchers at software supply-chain security company ReversingLabs say that the threat…
Google’s John Mueller offered a simple solution to a Redditor who blamed Google’s “AI” for a note in the SERPs saying that the website was down since early 2026. The Redditor didn’t create a post on Reddit, they just linked to their blog post that blamed Google and AI. This enabled Mueller to go straight to the site, identify the cause as having to do with JavaScript implementation, and then set them straight that it wasn’t Google’s fault. Redditor Blames Google’s AI The blog post by the Redditor blames Google, headlining the article with a computer science buzzword salad that…
In late January, Apple officially acquired the rights to makes movies and TV shows based on the works of author Brandon Sanderson, a hugely successful fantasy writer whose books have been begging to be adapted for many years. As Sanderson himself explains in the video message below, he’s talked with people in Hollywood before about bringing his novels to the screen, but for one reason or another it never worked out. “This feels really different this time. I think this one is really going to happen,” he says. It’s no coincidence that it finally feels different with Apple, which over…
