How Captain Marvel found Iron Man and Nebula at the start of Avengers: Endgame has finally been confirmed. The introduction of Brie Larson as Carol Danvers was first teased at the end of Avengers: Infinity War. Her symbol showing up on Nick Fury’s pager in the post-credits scene signaled her inclusion in the next chapter, but also that she’d be an important piece in saving the universe. While some were surprised and disappointed with the lack of presence Captain Marvel had in Avengers: Endgame overall, she is responsible for some of the film’s biggest scenes....

A white-hat hacker was able to hijack iPhone cameras using a chain of three vulnerabilities he discovered. The same approach would also work with the cameras on Macs. Ryan Pickren disclosed the vulnerabilities to Apple in December of last year. The company fixed the most serious of them in January, and the rest last month. The approach relied on an exception to the normal privacy requirement for apps to seek permission for camera or microphone access…...

Little did I know that once I checked the alerts, my day would get a lot more complicated....

Stage Manager is Apple’s solution for improving (or at least trying to) the iPad’s multitasking system. The feature lets users run apps in windowed mode, but there’s a catch: it only works with the M1 iPad Air and iPad Pro. Apple hasn’t said a word at this point about changing the feature requirements, but we’ve found a way to see how Stage Manager would work on the iPad mini. How Stage Manager works First of all, if you haven’t seen Stage Manager in action, it basically brings windows to iPadOS 16....

Many communities benefit from this social media platform, but at the same time, its “anything goes” attitude might make some people feel unsafe. A unique feature of the site is the ability to add music to pages. Visitors don’t have to listen (they have to choose to actively – and they’ll need Apple Music subscriptions), but it’s a new way to express yourself. It is not a good choice for kids because of its full-frontal nudity and pictures of erections and bodily fluids....

With all of that comes a variety of objects that can be both weapons and defense mechanisms. Each chapter of the MCU has introduced different items, but for as many as have stuck around (Hulkbuster armor, the tesseract, etc....

There might be various reasons for doing that, but attackers mostly use them for hiding the presence of a malicious code in the system. We can also use them for research purposes, because they are invaluable when trying to find out how the application works or for finding new zero-day vulnerabilities in software....
