As online threats continue to grow more complex, Google is urging Chrome users to consider enabling Enhanced Safe Browsing, a feature that goes beyond the browser’s default protection. Standard Safe Browsing relies on a regularly updated database of dangerous websites, but Enhanced Safe Browsing leverages AI and real-time scanning to identify risks that haven’t yet been officially flagged. This approach makes it particularly useful against fast-moving threats like new phishing campaigns or malware designed to evade detection. Google’s descriptions of Enhanced Safe Browsing remain somewhat vague, referring to processes like “in-depth scans for suspicious downloads” and enhanced protections that benefit…

Microsoft is taking another step toward a password-free future, encouraging users to create passkeys for their Microsoft accounts. With a stated goal of moving one billion users away from traditional passwords, the company sees passkeys as a safer, more convenient way to secure digital identities. While most people have encountered passkey prompts when visiting various websites or apps through Windows, far fewer have taken the time to enable one for their own Microsoft account. Doing so, however, is straightforward and offers a range of benefits. The process begins at account.microsoft.com/security, where users can access account settings and choose “Manage how…

Google is experimenting with a new search experience for Windows, introducing the “Google app for Windows,” an application that searches both your computer and the web while integrating AI features. Classified as a Labs project, the app is designed to help users retrieve information without interrupting their workflow. In a short blog post, Google highlighted its core functionality: users can press Alt + Space to instantly search for files on their PC, applications, Google Drive content, and web results.

More than a decade after the Cambridge Analytica scandal rocked social media, Facebook users are finally beginning to see financial compensation for the misuse of their personal data. The controversy, which revealed that Cambridge Analytica had collected data from millions of Facebook accounts without consent to fuel political advertising campaigns, led to multiple legal consequences for the company. In 2019, Facebook agreed to a record-setting $5 billion settlement with the Federal Trade Commission, and in 2022, it settled a separate class-action lawsuit for $725 million to compensate affected users. Now, in 2025, the settlement is materializing for eligible users, with…

Most desktop builders will never need more than an 850-watt PSU, and even 1,200-watt models are typically reserved for extreme enthusiasts or workstation-grade projects. But Corsair has shattered expectations with the debut of its WS3000 power supply, a monster capable of delivering a full 3,000 watts of output. In terms of raw capacity, it’s a new milestone for power supplies designed to fit inside a standard ATX case, raising the bar on what desktop hardware can demand. The WS3000 is built with modern high-power components in mind. It features six 8-pin CPU rails and four 12V-2×6 GPU connectors that comply…

Gamers have long joked that Doom can run on anything—from smart fridges to calculators—but one fan has now demonstrated just how long the iconic shooter can run before finally giving in to system limits. The answer: years. A poster on the Len0w0 forum, known as “Minki,” recently concluded a marathon experiment that saw Doom operating continuously for more than 2.5 years before crashing due to an expected overflow error in the engine. The test was born from theory. By examining the way the Windows 3.1 port of Doom handles variables, Minki estimated that the game would eventually fail after about…

The dangers of extended interaction with artificial intelligence are gaining urgent attention as cases of so-called “AI psychosis” are linked to suicides around the world, including that of a California teenager whose parents have filed a wrongful death lawsuit against OpenAI. The troubling phenomenon refers to users who, by engaging conversationally with AI chatbots like ChatGPT, spiral into cycles of delusion that can reinforce harmful thoughts. With mounting evidence of the risks, OpenAI executives, including CEO Sam Altman, appeared before Congress this week and pledged new safeguards, including stricter age verification systems. Altman confirmed that ChatGPT is now implementing automated…
