The NotePin S AI wearable, seen here on the wrist of CNET’s Katie Collins, could be really useful for my job. And it’s on sale for Prime Day. Andrew Lanxon/CNETI took over the role of CNET’s editorial leader earlier this year, and while I’ve participated in Prime Day sales as a TV reviewer and general deals editor here for (literally) decades, this is my first Prime Day as EIC. In case you’re wondering what purchases a person like me is considering this time around, here’s a sampling.iPad 11-inch A16 ($300): My artistic daughter has been asking for an iPad and…

Meanwhile, the company’s net loss narrowed to $14 million, down from $23.9 million in the same quarter one year ago.…
Ravie LakshmananJun 23, 2026Initial Access Broker / Firewall Security A Russian-speaking initial access broker (IAB) driven by financial gain is assessed to be behind a large-scale credential-harvesting operation known as FortiBleed that has targeted over 430,000 FortiGate firewalls globally. The campaign, active since February 2026, involves collecting credential lists, searching for exposed services, brute-forcing accessible systems, and deploying bespoke sniffers on compromised firewalls. “Once deployed, these sniffers capture cleartext and hashed credentials from traffic passing through compromised devices,” SOCRadar said [PDF] in a fresh report. “The actors then crack, validate, and reuse the credentials against Active Directory domains and other…

The cuts are reportedly not part of any AI initiatives Lazada said today (Jun 23) that it has laid off about 5% of its workforce across Southeast Asia. The move was made after reviewing certain roles in its regional markets, according to a report from the Business Times. The e-commerce firm did not disclose which roles were affected, adding that the review was based on business needs, role requirements and organisation efficiency. The cuts are understood not to be part of any artificial intelligence initiatives. Lazada currently operates in six Southeast Asian markets: Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia, Vietnam and the…
NVIDIA’s Rubin platform turns the heat up to 45°C, ditching fans and water-guzzling towers for a new, efficient era of liquid-cooled AI infrastructure. The era of the AI factory has officially arrived, one not powered by fans- it’s powered by hot water. With the launch of the Rubin platform, NVIDIA has effectively declared war on the inefficient, water-guzzling infrastructure that has supported the internet for the last two decades. By engineering a system where cooling liquid can circulate at a blistering 45°C, the temperature of a high-end hot tub, NVIDIA is doing more than just keeping chips from melting. They…

The Steam Machine 2026: a full gaming PC in a six-inch black cube. (Valve Software press image) Valve Software abruptly opened reservations for its latest Steam Machine on Monday, but due to the ongoing PC component shortage, did so at a significantly higher price than expected. The company, headquartered in Bellevue, Wash., first announced the new version of the Steam Machine late last year.

The 2026 Steam Machine starts at a whopping $1,049 through Valve’s digital storefront Steam,…
A new chip developed by MIT researchers could help tiny, low-power UAVs avoid obstacles as they zip around tight corners inside an industrial HVAC system to check for gas leaks.The chip allows small autonomous robots and other battery-limited devices to construct detailed 3D maps of their environments in real-time using only about as much power as a single LED. A robot could use such a map to plan a collision-free path to reach its goal.Typically, generating such thorough maps requires power-hungry systems and a great deal of memory to build and store 3D representations of the obstacles in a robot’s…
