Apple Vision Pro does not come with physical controllers thus allowing users to control it using hand gestures
However, when you're using the Vision Pro, the headset will pick up the hand gestures of "anyone" within the FOV (Field of View) of the sensors....enabling brand new ways to mess up with your workflow
Good job ππ»ππ»ππ»

Tab auto grouping in Edge leaks your open sites to Microsoft. This AI-powered feature sends the full browsing session to company's servers to build the groups. But this is not mentioned anywhere.
Anything AI-* is not a local or offline feature. Copilots and other AI capabilities are integrated in Microsoft Edge, but they perform data processing on the server side. It is easy to check this by going offline for a moment. You will quickly find that Edge will not be able to group tabs automatically, as it can't reach Microsoft's servers for that.
So Microsoft should clearly notify the user that his data will be sent and processed online. The feature itself is very convenient and time saving option. But users who care about their privacy may prefer to avoid it, and create tab groups manually. Or even switch to a different browser.

Many custom kernel users are now seeming to fail device attestation checks, and the cause appears to be that the Play Integrity API is checking for blacklisted strings in the kernel version name.
For example, kernels with "sultan" or "lineageos" in the uname are reportedly failing attestation.
And it looks like Play Integrity might soon add GPU driver fingerprinting as well.
Neither of these checks are surprising, but it's yet another thing that root users need to be aware of in this neverending cat-and-mouse game.
Discussion here.

Introducing the Final Boss of Apple's Lightning Cables
The Apple Vision Pro power cable connects to the battery with what may well be Lightningβs final form.
With the help of a SIM removal tool and pushing into the small hole in the silver external battery pack of the Vision Pro popped out the cable what seems like a bigger, 12-pin version of the lightning cable

HMD is dropping its Nokia branding for smartphones
HMD Global is a smartphone maker that has exclusive rights to the Nokia branding name and sells smartphones & tablets under the Nokia brand.
Nokia in-turn receives royalty payments from HMD Global for each Nokia-branded phone that HMD sells

Human Mobile Devices (HMD Global) will start selling its own devices without the Nokia branding marking now.
Additionally, the Nokia.com/phones now directs users to HMD Globalβs website.
The first batch of HMD-branded handsets are codenamed: Legend and Pulse

The impossible has happened: Microsoft updates Windows Setup design
Microsoft rolled out a new Windows 11 preview build (26040) with a brand new default installation UI, something that hasn't been touched in over a decade.
The last time it was seriously updated was with Windows 8, and before that was Windows Vista.
Microsoft describes the new UI as "refreshing the Windows OS Media Setup with a much cleaner and more modern design.
All of the same features will continue to be supported in the bare-metal (clean) OS Installation experience, including unattended support, but will now be consistent with the current upgrade and installation experience available for the devices already running the Windows OS."

First Look at Native Linux-like Sudo command in Windows 11
Source
Microsoft is testing native Linux-like Sudo command support for Windows 11
The Sudo command in Linux or macOS allows for modifying system files, changing system settings, system-wide updates, and more.
The Sudo βsuperuser doβ command is coming to Windows 11 as part of the developer settings.
It may allow you to manage settings that require administrative privileges, such as uninstalling apps, changing system settings, or other developer-related settings.
Windows 11 will allow you to configure Sudo command behavior by setting preferences for how commands run with Sudo work:
β’ In a New Window
β’ With Input Disabled
β’ Inline
Youβll be able to access the Sudo command using Command Prompt, PowerShell, or any terminal interface on Windows as long as the feature is enabled and developer mode is turned on.

FunFact: Poco X6 series feature a Virtual Proximity Sensor
Poco has mentioned that X6 Pro features a Proximity sensor on the Poco Global website including the UK's and even on India's Flipkart
However, it uses a "virtual" proximity sensor to offer the PATHETIC experience to its loyal Poco & Xiaomi meat riders
Since Poco X6 pro is a rebranded Redmi K70E in China, Redmi did NOT mention that it has a proximity sensor on its Mi China website
But Poco however as usual is fooling everyone by writing FAKE specifications for its products
Note: This CANNOT be fixed by Custom ROMs as some people believe that Xiaomi hardware specs are good, so just change the software using Custom ROMS π€

CORRECTION: Poco X6 gets a Physical Proximity sensor
Poco X6 Pro uses TCS 3701 "elliptic" proximity sensor developed by Elliptic Labs which is "AI virtual" proximity sensor instead of a physical one.
Meanwhile, the cheaper Poco X6 uses the TCS 3701 proximity sensor which is the SAME used on the Poco F5 too
Also, Poco X6 pro comes with Gorilla Glass 5 for protection
The cheaper Poco X6 gets Gorilla Glass Victus protection
However, Poco X6 Pro features NFC chip but Xiaomi removed it with the regular X6

Carl Pei is a hypocrite. During the start of Nothing, Carl Pei initially stated that their ecosystem would be "open" & would "effortlessly integrate" with other brands. Now in 2023, Carl Pei announced that they are considering making features for Nothingβ¦

Apart from Xiaomi, we troll Nothing too for their fake promises to hype up their products
I criticized Carl Pei previously by calling him a "hypocrite" by showcasing many proofs wherein he acts like he cares about the community at first but afterward switches sides because of money
You can read that post HERE
In November 2022, Carl did 2 Twitter polls asking users whether to make Glyph Interface API open or not and users voted for it to be open.
But Nothing did Nothing about this indicating a fake hype as usual
But now after almost 20 months of launching Phone 1, Carl Pei has finally announced the Glyph SDK (Software Development Kit) is coming for Nothing users
The new Glyph Developer Kit will let 3rd-party Android app developers tap into the flashing lights on the rear of Nothingβs Phone 1 and Phone 2 handsets.

When will Google launch its Find My Device network? We still don't know, but here's the latest update:
Background
Google said they won't roll their Find My Device network until Apple implements unwanted tracker alerts in iOS. Apple is waiting for the Detecting Unwanted Location Trackers (DULT) specification they jointly developed with Google and other industry vendors to be chartered by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF).
Google said they expected this specification to be finalized by the end of 2023, but it seems that timeline was a bit optimistic. In recent weeks, the DULT mailing list called for feedback from participants on whether they approved of the current draft being chartered.
Where we are today
Today (2/2/24), the call for feedback was closed by the IETF's Security Area Director, who said that these are the next steps:
1) The IESG will conduct an initial review of the charter at the next telechat (2/15/24).
2) The charter will be sent to the IETF community for review.
3) The IESG will conduct a final review on the charter at another telechat (2/29/24 or 3/7/24).
If all goes well, the earliest that the DULT specification can be chartered is by IETF 119, which starts on 3/16/24.
This means we'll have to wait until at least mid-March for DULT to be finalized, and then we'll have to wait for Apple to roll out unwanted tracker alerts based on this spec to iOS, and finally Google will roll out their Find My Device network.
(Getting industry consensus on such a sensitive issue takes time and there are a lot of things that need to be done, so this is no fault of the IETF. I'm just relaying the latest update on what's happening.)
