Microsoft has confirmed that some Windows domain controllers are entering restart loops due to Local Security Authority Subsystem Service (LSASS) crashes after installing the April 2026 security updates. The company also warned that Windows admins may encounter this issue when setting up new domain controllers, or even on existing ones, if the server processes authentication requests very early in the startup process. “After installing the April 2026 Windows security update (KB5082063) and rebooting, non‑Global Catalog (non‑GC) domain controllers (DCs) in environments that use Privileged Access Management (PAM), might experience LSASS crashes during startup,” Microsoft said in a release health dashboard…

Open ChatGPT, then search for a local business you know has a strong online presence. Ask for a recommendation in that category. Chances are, it comes up. If you check what the AI cites as sources, you’ll almost certainly find the business’s own website in the mix. That tells you something important: AI doesn’t conjure answers out of thin air. It pulls from whatever it can find. If your website isn’t the best, most complete, most authoritative source of information about your business, the AI will assemble its answer from scraps. You lose control of your own narrative. That’s what’s…
A vulnerability chain in Cursor AI could have allowed attackers to hijack developer machines via prompts hidden in malicious repositories, Straiker discovered. Dubbed NomShub, the attack chain exploits an indirect prompt injection in coding agents and a command sandbox bypass to write code to the user’s machine and abuse Cursor’s remote tunnel feature to gain shell access. According to Straiker, mounting an attack does not require any user interaction beyond opening a malicious repository in Cursor. Furthermore, because the exploited feature is a legitimate binary signed and notarized, an attacker can exploit Cursor to gain full file system access and…
Summary Tux Manager recreates the Windows Task Manager on Linux with a familiar, polished UI. It’s built with Qt for speed and low resource use, and the developer intends to keep it that way. Tux Manager is available on GitHub with packages for major distros, plus an AUR entry and a Nix flake. Moving from Windows to Linux can be really freeing, but it’s easy to miss some of Microsoft’s finer features. For example, some people making the jump may find that they miss Windows’ Task Manager. Linux distros usually have a somewhat similar app that lets you do what…
This series has been written in English, tested in English, and grounded in research conducted primarily in English. Every framework discussed here (vector index hygiene, cutoff-aware content calendaring, community signals, machine-readable content APIs) was conceived by an English-speaking practitioner, stress-tested against English-language queries, and validated against benchmarks that, as this article will show, are themselves English-weighted by design. That is not a disclaimer, but it is the central problem this article is about. The AI visibility discourse at large carries the same limitation. One 2024 study analyzing AI evaluation datasets found that over 75% of major LLM benchmarks are designed…
We’ve seen plenty of chargers hit Amazon over the past few years, but Anker has been constant for close to a decade, offering products that are reliable and affordable. These two elements, along with performance, are important aspects for any charger, especially when you’re connecting them to expensive devices like phones and laptops. Personally, I like a charger that delivers good power in a compact size. The Anker Smart Display Charger is one that’s been on my radar for some time. And while the price isn’t all that bad at $40, it’s now down to a much more alluring price…
Ravie LakshmananApr 17, 2026Vulnerability / Enterprise Security A recently disclosed high-severity security flaw in Apache ActiveMQ Classic has come under active exploitation in the wild, per the U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA). To that end, the agency has added the vulnerability, tracked as CVE-2026-34197 (CVSS score: 8.8), to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog, requiring Federal Civilian Executive Branch (FCEB) agencies to apply the fixes by April 30, 2026. CVE-2026-34197 has been described as a case of improper input validation that could lead to code injection, effectively allowing an attacker to execute arbitrary code on susceptible installations. According to Horizon3.ai’s Naveen Sunkavally, CVE-2026-34197 has been “hiding in plain sight”…
Rita El Khoury / Android AuthorityTL;DR Android 17 Beta 4 makes internal reference to an in-development notification tool called Pixel Glow. Pixel Glow uses “subtle light and color” when your phone is face-down to let you know when things happen. Requirements for hardware lights might mean that Google’s adding RGB LEDs to upcoming Pixel devices. Android 17 Beta 4 just landed, bringing us closer than ever to Google’s upcoming stable release. At this late stage, we’re not seeing Google make a ton of user-facing changes — but that doesn’t mean that progress hasn’t been moving swiftly along under the hood.…
The agency will stop adding detailed information to vulnerabilities that don’t meet certain criteria.
Google announced Chrome updates that let searchers use AI Mode in a more engaging, deeper way. Chrome lets you do it all without switching tabs and potentially losing your place. What’s new. Chrome added three new features: Search side-by-side: In AI Mode on Chrome desktop, clicking a link opens the webpage next to AI Mode. That makes it easier to visit relevant sites, compare details, and ask follow-up questions without losing the context of your search. Here’s what it looks like: Search across your tabs: On Chrome desktop or mobile, you can tap the new “plus” menu on the New…
