Under the display, the foldable has Alder Lake U-series silicon with Iris Xe graphics, a pair of Thunderbolt ports, 5MP camera, and a 75Wh battery. Without its Bluetooth keyboard, the device weighs 1.6kg, and is 8.7mm thick when unfolded. The Intel Evo-compliant Zenbook will be available in the middle of the year.

Such a situation was pointed out by Can I Phish CEO Sebastian Salla who scanned 1.8 million Australian domain records in search of email security snafus. The mistake Salla was looking for was within SPF records, which handles individual IP addresses, but also IP ranges. If an organisation had entered a wide IP range, and had their email infrastructure sitting on a cloud provider, which reuse IP addresses unless an organisation pays extra for a dedicated IP address, there could be scope to take over an address covered by someone else’s SPF record....

As the pandemic has continued to change human behavior, the fast-food business has barely believed its good fortune. For a long time, many restaurants were closed. The likes of McDonald’s, Burger King, and Chick-fil-A had ready-made drive-thrus. They could satiate those ready to salivate. For some, though, this brought an unexpected customer problem....

As usual, the big three dominated cloud infrastructure spending, accounting for 61% of the $53.5 billion in Q4 2021, according to analyst Canalys. SEE: Cloud computing is the key to business success. But unlocking its benefits is hard work Growth followed the standard order, too: though still a loss-making part of Alphabet, Google Cloud revenues grew fastest at 63% year on year, followed by Azure’s 46%, and AWS’s 40%.

Consider these recent developments: We could toss in a few other examples, such as AT&T separating from its media business too. The rationale for these conglomerate breakups is pretty straightforward. These giants became large and cumbersome and were weighed down. By splitting up, these companies’ offspring can perform better with more focus. When the growth goes, so does the rationale for a conglomerate. The argument for conglomerates–the idea that magic management can run any business – fades away....

Coming on the heels of the Mac’s rebirth as the iMac, the iPod marked a new era for Apple, one that would eventually shift the bulk of its business to pocket-sized products and lead to it dropping “Computer” from its name. Even though the non-iOS iPods were discontinued in 2017, the iPod name has lived on in the iPod touch, the least expensive gateway to Apple’s mobile app ecosystem long positioned as an inexpensive device for pre-teens for mobile games and, of course, music....
