Apple Watch Ultra 4: One minute review The Apple Watch Ultra 4 isn't a radical aesthetic redesign, but it doesn't need to be. Apple's rugged smartwatch keeps the familiar 49mm titanium build, bright display, and customizable Action Button, while upgrades to its rear health sensors and internals make it a more capable companion for everyday wear and endurance workouts. The biggest upgrade is arguably its battery life. Apple promises up to 50 hours of normal use, but I've easily managed two days with the Always-On display enabled and sleep tracking running overnight. That's seriously impressive for a fully featured smartwatch, even if some lower-power rivals like the best Garmin watches can last longer. The new S11 chip keeps everything feeling responsive, with apps opening quickly and watchOS 27 running smoothly. Faster charging is another welcome addition, letting me replenis...

Watch World Series 2026 live streams as the Brewers and the Rays face off in a bid to claim the ultimate prize: being crowned champions for the first time. It should make for a fascinating contest, with up to seven games taking place across nine days to decide the Fall Classic. The Brewers will have home-field advantage in the World Series after recording a franchise-record 103 wins during the regular season, the most in the Majors. They will host the first two games at American Family Field, as well as Games 6 and 7, if required. The National League champions are making their second World Series appearance, and their first since 1982, when they lost to the St Louis Cardinals in seven games. They reached the Fall Classic by beating the San Diego Padres in the NL Division Series before sweeping the Los Angeles Dodgers in the NL Championship Series, denying the defending champions the chance to win...

Microsoft collaborated with the Japanese National Police Agency to tackle Chinese-language cybercrime “app stores” The YAM Store, CoGUI, and Iron Man have targeted people in more than 150 countries Microsoft is working with law enforcement agencies worldwide to take down illegal operations that target businesses and individuals Microsoft has announced a successful operation with the Japanese National Police Agency in which a collection of cybercrime app stores were disrupted. Investigating fraudulent, scam messages targeting Japanese businesses and citizens, the operation uncovered a multi-faceted criminal marketplace, with three key elements. The YAM Store, CoGUI, and Iron Man had targeted 75,000 organizations across more than 150 countries worldwide, sent over one billion malicious communications promoting scams, and generated millions of dollars for the criminals behind them. Furthermore, 750 ...

Anthropic used Claude to analyze 25 open source projects and uncovered nearly 500 security issues Research found exposed pre-authentication code paths, conflicting security settings, and long-hidden flaws AI identified attack-surface reductions that removed unnecessary code exposure before vulnerabilities could be exploited Anthropic recently used Claude to analyze 25 major open source projects written in C, C++, Java, PHP, and Python, in search of security issues. It found almost 500 of them, including security controls turned off by conflicts in settings, sensitive code accessible before authentication, and even a vulnerability that sat in the code for 21 years. This wasn’t a standard hunt for vulnerabilities. In its report , Anthropic argues that looking for individual vulnerabilities is a Sisyphean task that scales poorly and never guarantees security. Instead, it thinks defenders should turn...

Light spoilers follow for Clayface . Not many people would've predicted that a Clayface movie would be part of James Gunn and Peter Safran's DC Universe (DCU). Three years after Gunn unveiled the initial DCU slate , fewer still expected a shape-shifting villain to beat heavy hitters like Batman and Wonder Woman to the big screen. And yet, here we are. Four months after Supergirl bombed at the box office, Clayface feels like a crucible moment for a cinematic universe that's still trying to find its footing and drop a few spontaneous surprises along the way. And, while the lovingly crafted origin story delivers on the latter front, it doesn't fully succeed in helping to shape the direction of DC 's fledging comic book franchise. Face/Off Clayface is arguably the biggest role of Welsh actor...

DJI might not be as well-known in the power supply space as Anker, Bluetti, EcoFlow, or Jackery, but its range of portable power stations have proved rather impressive in our tests. I find them particularly good for drone operators, since the units feature SDC ports for charging DJI drones. But that's not the only use for these power stations. The DJI Power 1000 V2, currently $400 (was $600) at Amazon , is a prime example of that, with its 1,024Wh battery capacity, 2,600W output, and a port selection that makes it well-suited for home backup during emergency power outages. • Best for: Drone operators charging multiple devices on the move, or home-owners wanting emergency backup power for appliances, electronics, and outdoor equipment. • What we like: The DJI Power 1000 V2 is a portable battery station that can also come along on camping trips, RV adventures, and outdoor challenges. Today...

A draft of Russia's national AI plan proposed using AI to analyze 70% of blocked VPN services and lift blocking effectiveness to 95% The Digital Development Ministry says the measure is absent from the current draft, but Roskomnadzor's separately budgeted and arguably crucial ML filtering project remains The 95% is an effectiveness target, not accuracy, and sources expect AI to raise false positives, with corporate VPN, cloud and voice traffic most exposed Russia's Digital Development Ministry considered using artificial intelligence to push the effectiveness of its VPN blocking to 95%, according to a front-page report in Kommersant . The measure appeared in a draft of the country's national plan for implementing AI through 2030; the ministry now says it is not in the current version. This isn't the first time such a move has been reported, but some earlier coverage might have...
