Linux Kernel 5.1 Reached End of Life, Users Urged to Upgrade to Linux Kernel 5.2

Renowned Linux kernel developer Greg Kroah-Hartman announced that the Linux 5.1 kernel series has reached end of life, urging users to upgrade to the latest Linux 5.2 kernel series. Announced in early May 2019, the Linux 5.1 kernel series brought the ability to use persistent memory as RAM, as well as support for booting to a device-mapper device without using initramfs, support for cumulative patches in live kernel patching, and more preparations for year 2038. In addition, Linux kernel 5.1 introduced support for configuring Zstd compression levels in the Btrfs file system, more faster and scalable asynchronous I/O, improved power management, scalable monitoring of large filesystems, as well as numerous new and updated drivers for better hardware support. However, as all good things must come to an end, the Linux 5.1 kernel has now reached end of life with the 5.1.21 maintenance update released by Greg Kroah-Hartma... ( read more )

What Is Credential Dumping? Protect Yourself With These 4 Tips

It’s bad enough when hackers get their hands on one of your accounts or logins. But sometimes they can use one stolen password to steal many of your other passwords as well. If your computer is on a network, they may be able to steal other users’ passwords too. This is achieved using a technique called credential dumping. We’ll explain how it works and how to protect yourself from it. What Is Credential Dumping? Recently security researchers have been talking about the dangers of credential dumping. This is a technique used by hackers to access multiple accounts from one person. It begins when hackers get access to a victim’s computer. From this one computer, they are able to extract usernames and passwords for multiple accounts. These could include logins for bank accounts, email accounts, and login information for other machines or networks. This can make it easier for hackers to steal someone’s identity and take over all of their accounts. They can also use this technique to ...

How to Create AMP Forms in WordPress (The Easy Way)

Do you want to create AMP-friendly forms on your WordPress site? Accelerated Mobile Pages or AMP is a Google project that makes websites load faster on mobile devices. While AMP offers a great mobile browsing experience by making your webpages load faster, it disables many useful features on your website. One of them is contact forms.

Three Ways to Find the Windows 10 OS Build Number

Keeping a Windows 10 device fully up-to-date is something that’s not as easy as it sounds, especially because allowing the Windows Update service to take care of everything doesn’t always work as expected. And this is mostly because some of the cumulative updates released by Microsoft sometimes fail to install or keep being re-offered despite the update process seemingly completing successfully. Checking the OS build number is the easiest way to determine if an update installed correctly or not, but at the same time, it can also help in other cases, such as when trying to figure out if a specific application is compatible with your device or not. There are several ways to find the OS build number in Windows 10, and some involve turning to the Command Prompt. And while cmd is often a tool that beginners try to stay away of, the commands that you must use for this task are rather simple, so you won’t necessarily become a full-time hacker if you give them a try.

What Information Does Google Chrome Send to Google in Crash Reports?

Google Chrome was, is, and will probably continue to be for a very long time the world’s number one browser on the desktop. According to third-party data from NetMarketShare, Google Chrome leads the browser software category with a share of over 65%, while rivals like Mozilla Firefox are far behind with less than 10% share. As a result, the Google Chrome userbase is gigantic, and just like other software companies, Google relies on reports sent by its users in order to develop new features for the browser and fix issues in the existing builds. While users themselves can send bug reports to Google using a built-in browser feature, the application also comes with an integrated error reporting tool that can automatically send certain information to the search engine when Chrome crashes. The purpose of this feature is as simple as it could be: an automatic crash report helps Google track down the problem that caused the error and then develop a fix based on the infor...

Google Chrome 77 Could Launch with a Built-in Theme Creator

Google is working on a new Chrome feature that will allow users to create their own theme for the browser. Right now, Google is already offering a set of pre-defined themes for Chrome, but more advanced customization isn’t possible without installing dedicated tools like extensions. Furthermore, Google’s themes come down to basic tweaks here and there, and they include several color schemes that users can switch to in the browser. On the other hand, for any other visual customization that’s not included in Google’s pre-defined pack, there’s not much users can do. However, the search giant is currently working on bringing a theme creator to Chrome browser, and 9to5google recently discovered code changes pointing to such a feature coming rather sooner than later. Coming to users in the next stable Chrome update By the looks of things, the theme creator will come wit... ( read more )

This Is Ridiculous: Study Finds 32% of Companies Run 18-Year-Old Windows

Microsoft is getting ready to end the support for Windows 7, the operating system that it launched in 2009, but in the meantime, it looks some a significant number of companies should be more worried about their machines running an 18-year-old Windows version. Research conducted by Spiceworks (via WinFuture ) reveals that in 2019, no less than 32% of the companies still have Windows XP devices in their fleets, down from 42% in 2017. Windows XP was released in 2001 and exited support in April 2014, so it no longer receives updates and security patches. Windows 7 likely to become the new Windows XP More alarming is that the Windows 7 usage within companies is at high levels. A total of 79% of the companies included in the survey ru... ( read more )

Microsoft Releases Update for Default Windows 10 Mail App

Microsoft has released a new update for the default mail app in Windows 10, this time including a trio of welcome improvements. First and foremost, it’s important to know that this update brings the Mail and Calendar app for Windows 10 to version 16005.11629.20316.0. If this version isn’t yet up for grabs, you should wait a little longer, as Microsoft typically releases such updates in stages to users worldwide. To check the version of the Mail app, launch it and then head over to Settings > About . How to install this version right now on Windows 10 According to the official change log published in the Store, once this update is installed on your device, the Mail and Calendar app should let you easily download and save all attachments in an email at once. Previously, users were required to download attachments one by one, so in the case of emails with a big number of files, it’s pretty clear that using this method wasn’t... ( read more )

Leaker Takes a Photo of the Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ with a 2019 iPhone XR

The next few months will be quite busy when it comes to the debut of new smartphones, as several flagships are projected to go live, including here the Samsung Galaxy Note 10, 2019 iPhones, and Google Pixel 4. While most leaks provide us with a closer look at one unreleased smartphone, this one right here does even more than that: it shows two different models that would go live in the coming months. The image posted by Ice Universe shows, first and foremost, the Samsung Galaxy Note 10+. This live photo confirms that the device would come with smaller bezels and a centered camera cutout, and as some eagle-eyed Internet users noticed, there’s no front-facing speaker grille. The Note 10+ is also expected to come with a fingerprint sensor embedded into the glass, just like the Samsung Galaxy S10, and the camera on the back could include four sensors, including ToF. 2019 iPhone XR spott...

Google Launches the All-New Android Auto

Google has started rolling out the new Android Auto to the first set of users worldwide, with the company claiming that full availability will be reached in the next weeks. Announced earlier this year, the overhauled Android Auto features a redesigned app launcher, which makes it much easier to find your apps and, more importantly, the one you used the most. Favorite apps are now placed in the top row of the app launcher, so if you’re just like me and using mostly Google Maps, Spotify, and phone, the first row is pretty much all you need. But what I think is the most useful improvement is the new navigation bar. Server-side switch Beginning with this release, the navigation bar features a dynamic approach, which means that it adapts to what you have on the screen. Google explains its behavior: “The new navigation bar sits at the bottom of your display, and allows you to manage multiple apps, more easily. So if you’re listening to music, you won’...

Apple CEO Confirms the Apple Card Is Just Around the Corner

Apple’s CEO Tim Cook has confirmed after the earnings report this morning that the Apple Card would be launched in a matter of weeks. A report that made the headlines a few days ago indicated that Apple could unveil the Apple Card in August , so the ETA suggested by Tim Cook aligns with this information. However, Cook hasn’t provided any specifics as to when the Apple Card is projected to go live, but it’s very clear the release is jut around the corner and could happen any day now. The Apple Card was announced in March, and it is supposed to provide customers with “a healthier financial life,” as the Cupertino-based tech giant itself said. Cash-back rewards One of the main benefits of the Apple Card, which is created in collaboration with Goldman Sachs and Mastercard, is that it comes with no fees, and users can receive cash-back r...

Microsoft Announces New Features for Windows 10 Calculator App

Microsoft open-sourced the Windows 10 Calculator app earlier this year, inviting devs and users alike to contribute to the development of this essential tool that comes bundled into the OS. And it looks like the work in this regard has advanced at the expected pace, so this week, the software giant announced a couple of new features coming to the Calculator. Dave Grochocki, who is a Senior Program Manager at Microsoft working on Notepad and the Windows Calculator, revealed on Twitter that an internal build of the app now comes with support for keeping it always on top. In other words, if you run the Calculator app, you can keep its window always on top, so the other apps running on the screen won’t cover it. This means you can do your operations quite easily, without having to always click its taskbar icon to bring the app back in focus every time. Hello, mini mode! Additionally, the Calculator app is also getting a mini mode, which you can laun... ( read more )

Privacy Watchdog Issues Alert Over Windows 10 Enterprise, Office Mobile Apps

A report published by Privacy Company for the Dutch Ministry of Justice and Security indicates that Microsoft hasn’t yet addressed all privacy concerns that the software giant agreed to resolve. Privacy Company says that while some Windows and Office versions are already in compliance with a set of privacy rules outlined by the Dutch government, others, including here Windows 10 Enterprise, Microsoft Office Online, and Office mobile apps, are still collecting data and sending it to the United States. The report (via The Reg ) recommends Dutch authorities to stop using the affected products or to configure them in a way that would reduce the amount of telemetry data that is being logged when using the software. “Microsoft has not yet implemented the...
