The Onyx Boox Go 10.3 (Gen II) Lumi is a good Android-toting Kindle Scribe alternative, but it disappoints in a couple of key areas

Web Hosting & Remote IT Support Boox Go 10.3 Gen II Lumi: One-minute review As far as epaper writing tablets go, Boox has some of the most versatile options thanks to their Android-based operating systems, and the Boox Go 10.3 (Gen II) Lumi is arguably the best of them despite its rather mouthful of a name — I’m just going to call it the ‘Lumi’ from here on in. I was already a fan of the original model, calling the reMarkable dupe a pleasure to use in my Boox Go 10.3 review — and by just adding a light and making the battery consumption more efficient, the Chinese ereader maker has made the Gen II model better. Despite the screen being a touch slower than I’ve experienced with other devices like the 2024 and 2025 Kindle Scribes, the light adds a lot of contrast to the screen, making it easier to read on, whether that’s an ebook or a handwritten note. Now, I have to mention that there is a ...

The Pinwheel Home is a retro-inspired landline phone that will keep your kids safe from doomscrolling

Web Hosting & Remote IT Support The Pinwheel Home is aimed at kids aged 5-10 years It only makes phone calls to approved contacts There's an optional subscription for calling real numbers The question of how much time young people should spend on their smartphones and social media has dominated the headlines in recent months, and a new retro-styled phone from Pinwheel is the latest device looking to give parents easier choices. When we say retro-styled, we don't mean a classic Nokia or a BlackBerry — we mean a landline. The Pinwheel Home (via TechCrunch ) just does calls, and that's it, so there's no chance of your kid getting sucked into Snapchat, Roblox, or YouTube. It works over Wi-Fi, there are full parental controls built in — so all contacts are pre-approved, and the device can only be used at certain times — and there are absolutely no screens to act as a distractio...

How automation is easing IT’s patching pressure

Web Hosting & Remote IT Support The disclosure-to-exploit window used to be measured in weeks; for weaponized vulnerabilities, it now runs in hours. Out-of-cycle patches that used to be exceptional have become routine across enterprise environments of meaningful size. This pattern now has a name. You might have heard it already: the Patch Apocalypse. Sounds a bit dramatic, but the impact warrants the drama. It describes something measurable — software flaws are being discovered, disclosed and weaponized faster than most patch management programs were built to handle. Several factors are converging at once. Frontier AI models are accelerating vulnerability research — Anthropic's Project Glasswing and comparable initiatives have produced thousands of high-severity findings in compressed timeframes. Attackers are using the same class of tooling to reverse-engineer patches far faster than ...

I love my Marantz CD player, and its new upgraded version was just unveiled — and the matching amp with aptX Bluetooth, HDMI and MM phono looks irresistible too

Web Hosting & Remote IT Support Marantz unveils replacements for the acclaimed PM6007 and CD6007 amp and CD player Amp has HDMI ARC and high-quality Bluetooth streaming, plus phono MM input From $750 / £499 / AU$1,000 One of the things I love about quality hi-fi is that it's often made to be a treat for your eyes as well as your ears. The new Marantz Model 70 integrated amp and CD 70 CD player definitely come into that category: I think they look stunning. I'm probably a little bit biased because my CD player is a Marantz (the CD6007 that this one makes obsolete, no less) and I love it dearly. But both new models promise serious substance to match their style. The Model 70 and CD 70 are the successors to the acclaimed PM6007 and the aforementioned CD6007, and Marantz promises that both deliver what the brand calls its signature "warm, detailed and deeply musical" sound. Bu...

The new rules of software supply chain security: visibility, vigilance, validation

Web Hosting & Remote IT Support The global digital economy runs on a thriving ecosystem of third-party vendors, enabling organizations to scale and innovate faster than they possibly could do on their own. This digital ecosystem is teeming with software suppliers, not just business software that you can buy but also a vast array of software libraries that are embedded in third-party products. Speed, however, can sometimes be the enemy of risk, as many organizations have not adequately validated whether these third-party technologies are sufficiently safeguarded against cyber threats and other digital risk. So, while software is a great enabler, it also brings risk, given that it often is built with frameworks and libraries that are not known or well supported. Consider that companies employ an average of 106 SaaS apps within their IT environments , and the picture becomes quite clear: soft...
