Tushar Mehta / Android AuthorityTL;DR Google recently announced that flashcards in NotebookLM are now editable. Along with questions, you can also edit responses. The feature is live for all NotebookLM users, including free ones. One of the complaints with NotebookLM’s learning tools has been that they don’t offer the ability to customize. To address this, Google recently updated the flashcard features, making them fully editable.This, Google says, should allow learners to adapt flashcards to suit their learning cadence and also share with friends, teachers, or even rivals.

The latest wave of breaches attributed to the ShinyHunters cybercrime collective (e.g., University of Nottingham, DentaQuest, 7-Eleven, Medtronic, and Wynn Resorts), reinforces a hard truth security leaders can no longer ignore: attackers are increasingly bypassing traditional perimeter defenses and targeting identities, authentication workflows, SaaS integrations, and trusted access paths instead of exploiting software vulnerabilities directly. Over the past several months, ShinyHunters has been linked to attacks involving Salesforce environments, Snowflake customers, SaaS integrations, and identity platforms such as Okta. Researchers and incident responders have consistently observed the same pattern: stolen credentials, compromised OAuth tokens, social engineering, vishing, and abuse of…

People are not super-excited about the SpaceX Starfall test tomorrow. This is a hockey puck shaped space vehicle that will be released from a Falcon 9 flight that goes to orbit or near orbit. It is a heat shield capsule that will hold about 1000 kg of payload and has some cold thrusters and parachutes in it. This seems on the surface to be boring.

Alongside a wealth of paid TV and movie streaming apps, there are also FAST services. This stands for free ad-supported streaming television, and each such service offers a rotating selection of live and on-demand movies and TV shows. The catch is that you must watch ads throughout the movie or episodes. Considering it costs nothing to access, the short interruptions from these free streaming channels are a welcome bathroom or snack-refill break. FAST services typically don’t have up-to-date content, focusing more on older library classics. But you might find some movies that are less than five-to-10 years old. Content changes…

Not too long ago, I suggested that a mini PC could make for an excellent media streamer, and I stand by that. I should acknowledge, however, that the mini form factor is not only unnecessary, but unrealistic for a lot of people. If you’re reading this, you may have already spent a small fortune on a powerful laptop. The inconvenience of repeatedly plugging that into your TV could be a small sacrifice next to spending several hundred dollars more on a box that may never budge from your living room. With that in mind, I thought it might be worth…
