Starting from November 5, Windows 10 users will see a clear distinction between automatic and manual updates in Windows Update. Microsoft says this change will allow users to have more control over plug-and-play accessories that automatically download and install drivers. Was "Plug and Play" every anything other than "issues"?

Security flaw lets attackers escape sandboxes designed to contain malicious code. Releasing information about it certainly will stop people from using it

The object recognition technology could clearly do with a bit of a tweak, or else the team might actually have to implement the policy of bald referees being forced to wear a sombrero to differentiate themselves from the ball.

Google says hardware in embedded devices needs to improve to make possible a world of peel-and-stick sensors free of wall power and human maintenance. It's all fun and games until you have to apply a patch to trillions of devices

In a paper published in the journal Nature Electronics, an international team of researchers has reported a new technique for magnetization switching—the process used to "write" information into magnetic memory—that is nearly 100 times faster than state-of-the-art spintronic devices. Maybe this will help with the "Visual Studio is busy" messages

The European Union is set to propose new laws to rein in the power of big tech companies, including measures to ensure customers are protected, smaller rivals are treated fairly, and illegal content is dealt with, the bloc's digital and antitrust chief said on Thursday. Everyone shall be beaten fairly and equitably?
Who gets to define fair? How much does the job pay? Are there snarky blurbs involved?

And the big tech companies...
- Yeah, right!!! We promise we will do no evil... (crossing fingers behind the back and ROFLing in their minds)

The U.S. National Security Agency is rebuffing efforts by a leading Congressional critic to determine whether it is continuing to place so-called back doors into commercial technology products, in a controversial practice that critics say damages both U.S. industry and national security. "I wanna be your back door man" (part way too many)

I think my comment to the message above can apply here too. Just replace "Big tech companies" with "(some) Acronyms government agencies" and I say some, because many others (in many countries worldwide) are either too weak or driven by too dumbs to do it, not because they wouldn't want to do it
