				Microsoft has announced <a href="https://blogs.windows.com/windowsexperience/2024/11/19/windows-security-and-resiliency-protecting-your-business/">sweeping changes</a> to Windows security architecture, including new recovery capabilities designed to prevent system-wide outages following <a href="https://it.slashdot.org/story/24/07/19/0943232/global-it-outage-linked-to-crowdstrike-update-disrupts-businesses">July's CrowdStrike incident</a> that disabled 8.5 million Windows devices. <br> <br>

The Windows Resiliency Initiative introduces Quick Machine Recovery, allowing IT administrators to remotely fix unbootable systems through an enhanced Windows Recovery Environment. Microsoft is also mandating stricter testing and deployment practices for security vendors under its Microsoft Virus Initiative, including gradual rollouts and monitoring procedures. <br> <br>

The company is also developing a framework to move antivirus processing outside the Windows kernel, with a preview planned for security partners in July 2025.

				An anonymous reader shares a report:<i> The US Patent and Trademark Office <a href="https://www.wired.com/story/us-patent-trademark-office-internally-banned-generative-ai/">banned the use of generative artificial intelligence for any purpose last year</a>, citing security concerns with the technology as well as the propensity of some tools to exhibit "bias, unpredictability, and malicious behavior," according to an April 2023 internal guidance memo obtained by WIRED through a public records request. Jamie Holcombe, the chief information officer of the USPTO, wrote that the office is "committed to pursuing innovation within our agency" but are still "working to bring these capabilities to the office in a responsible way."<br> <br>

Paul Fucito, press secretary for the USPTO, clarified to WIRED that employees can use "state-of-the-art generative AI models" at work -- but only inside the agency's internal testing environment. "Innovators from across the USPTO are now using the AI Lab to better understand generative AI's capabilities and limitations and to prototype AI-powered solutions to critical business needs," Fucito wrote in an email.</i>

				One of India's largest news agencies, Asian News International, has <a href="https://techcrunch.com/2024/11/18/indian-news-agency-sues-openai-alleging-copyright-infringement/">sued OpenAI</a> in a case that could set a precedent for how AI companies use copyrighted news content in the world's most populous nation. From a report:<i> Asian News International filed a 287-page lawsuit in the Delhi High Court on Monday, alleging the AI company illegally used its content to train its AI models and generated false information attributed to the news agency. The case marks the first time an Indian media organization has taken legal action against OpenAI over copyright claims.</i><br>

				Ranga Dias, a physics professor who made headlines with claims that he had <a href="https://science.slashdot.org/story/20/10/14/2223246/the-first-room-temperature-superconductor-has-finally-been-found">discovered a room-temperature superconductor</a> and then was found to have <a href="https://science.slashdot.org/story/24/03/21/1443224/superconductor-scientist-engaged-in-research-misconduct-probe-finds">engaged in research misconduct</a>, is <a href="https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/careersandeducation/embattled-superconductivity-scientist-is-out/ar-AA1ulMLC">no longer employed by the University of Rochester</a>. WSJ:<i> A spokeswoman for the university confirmed on Monday that Dias is out but declined to comment on the terms of his departure. The Wall Street Journal previously reported that Rochester President Sarah Mangelsdorf had called for terminating his position in an August letter to the chair and vice chair of the university's Board of Trustees. <br> <br>

Dias leaves the university after years of accusations that he had <a href="https://science.slashdot.org/story/23/07/26/1418227/another-retraction-imminent-for-controversial-physicist">misrepresented data in multiple papers</a>. He is a senior author on at least five papers retracted in just over two years. One of those, which identified a material that functioned as a superconductor at room temperature, was <a href="https://science.slashdot.org/story/23/11/07/1856213/nature-retracts-controversial-superconductivity-paper-by-embattled-physicist">pulled by the journal Nature</a> after several co-authors told the journal that Dias had misrepresented information in the paper. Dias didn't respond to requests for comment. He has previously denied manipulating or misrepresenting data. <br> <br>

His departure follows a monthslong university investigation completed in February that was led by three outside experts who reviewed documents and data from Dias's laboratory computers and interviewed Dias and his collaborators. The investigative panel found evidence of misconduct in four papers in which Dias is a senior author and in a grant proposal he submitted to the National Science Foundation. Then-provost David Figlio accepted the conclusions and referred his case to a faculty committee "for potential removal." Dias <a href="https://science.slashdot.org/story/24/04/26/1831256/judge-dismisses-superconductivity-physicists-lawsuit-against-university">sued the university</a> in February claiming that the probe into his work was biased and didn't follow university policies. </i><br>

				WhatsApp's newly unsealed court documents have exposed the extensive reach of NSO Group's Pegasus spyware operation, which <a href="https://techcrunch.com/2024/11/15/nso-group-admits-cutting-off-10-customers-because-they-abused-its-pegasus-spyware-say-unsealed-court-documents/">targeted "between hundreds and tens of thousands" of devices</a>, according to testimony from the company's head of research and development. The Israeli surveillance firm charged government customers up to $6.8 million for one-year licenses, generating at least $31 million in revenue in 2019 alone, TechCrunch first reported. <br> <br>

The documents detail previously unknown hacking tools named "Hummingbird," "Eden," and "Heaven," developed specifically to compromise WhatsApp users' devices. The revelations emerge from WhatsApp's ongoing 2019 lawsuit against NSO Group for alleged violations of U.S. anti-hacking laws.<br> <br>

				Bhutan, the tiny kingdom that introduced Gross National Happiness to the world, has a problem: <a href="https://www.cbsnews.com/news/bhutan-emigration-crisis-60-minutes/">young people are leaving the country in record numbers</a>. CNN:<i> The country boasts free health care, free education, a rising life expectancy and an economy that's grown over the last 30 years -- still, people are leaving. Prime Minister Tshering Tobgay believes it is ironically the success of Gross National Happiness that has made young Bhutanese so sought after abroad. "It is an existential crisis," he said.<br> <br>

Bhutan, which is about the size of Maryland, was largely isolated from the rest of the world for centuries. The kingdom was so protective of its unique Buddhist culture that it only started allowing foreign tourists to visit in the 1970s and didn't introduce television until 1999. Buddhism is the country's national religion. Bhutanese, especially older men and women, spend hours spinning prayer wheels full of Buddhist scriptures. Prayer flags flutter on hillsides and in forests, turning nature itself into a shrine. Bhutan's capital city of Thimpu still has no traffic lights. The nation's roads are shared by cars and cows.</i><br>

From a report:<i> Spirit, the biggest U.S. budget airline, filed a Chapter 11 bankruptcy petition after working out terms with bondholders. <br> <br>

The airline has lost more than $2.5 billion since the start of 2020 and faces looming debt payments totaling more than $1 billion in 2025 and 2026. The airline said it expects to continue operating normally during the bankruptcy process.<br> <br>

Spirit told customers Monday they can book flights and use frequent-flyer points as they ordinarily would, and said employees and vendors would continue getting paid.</i><br>

				Microsoft is planning to launch a new purpose-built miniature PC for its Windows 365 cloud service next year. The Verge:<i> Windows 365 Link is a $349 device that acts like a thin client PC to connect to the cloud and <a href="https://www.theverge.com/2024/11/19/24299789/microsoft-windows-365-link-device-cloud-pc">stream a version of Windows 11</a>. The Link device is designed to be a compact, fanless, and easy-to-use cloud PC for your local monitors and peripherals. It's meant to be the ideal companion to Microsoft's Windows 365 service, which lets businesses transition employees over to virtual machines that exist in the cloud and can be streamed securely to multiple devices.</i> Windows 365 Link cannot run local apps.<br>

				Coca-Cola's latest AI-generated Christmas <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4RSTupbfGog">advertisement</a> has sparked criticism from creative professionals who say the promotional video <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/tech/innovation/coca-cola-causes-controversy-ai-made-ad-rcna180665">lacks authenticity and artistic merit</a>. <br> <br>

The video, which depicts Coca-Cola trucks in snowy landscapes and people drinking the beverage, reimagines the company's 1995 "Holidays Are Coming" campaign using AI. Three AI studios - Secret Level, Silverside AI and Wild Card - produced different versions using four generative AI models, according to Forbes. <br> <br>

Critics, including "Gravity Falls" creator Alex Hirsch, have condemned the company's decision to use AI instead of human artists. The controversial video has garnered over 56 million views on social media platform X. Coca-Cola defended the campaign, stating it combines "human storytellers and the power of generative AI."<br>

				In a technical blog post, Microsoft veteran Raymond Chen has <a href="https://devblogs.microsoft.com/oldnewthing/20241112-00/?p=110507">explained</a> why Windows 95's installation process required users to pass through three different operating systems -- MS-DOS, Windows 3.1, and Windows 95. The design choice stemmed from the need to support upgrades from multiple starting points while maintaining a graphical user interface throughout the process. <br> <br>

Rather than creating separate installers for MS-DOS, Windows 3.1, and Windows 95 users, developers opted for a unified approach using three chained setup programs. The process began with installing a minimal version of Windows 3.1 when starting from MS-DOS, followed by a 16-bit Windows application that handled core installation tasks, and concluded with a 32-bit Windows 95 program for final configuration steps.

				An anonymous reader quotes a report from The Verge: <i>Perplexity is <a href="https://www.perplexity.ai/hub/blog/shop-like-a-pro">rolling out</a> a new feature that <a href="https://www.theverge.com/2024/11/18/24299574/perplexity-ai-search-engine-buy-products">will let Pro subscribers purchase a product</a> without leaving its AI search engine. When searching for a product using Perplexity, Pro members based in the US can now choose a "Buy with Pro" button that will automatically order the product using saved shipping and billing information. Perplexity says all products purchased through Buy with Pro come with free shipping. For products that don't support Buy with Pro, Perplexity will redirect users to the merchant's website to complete their purchase. [...]
<br> <br>
Users who aren't subscribed to Perplexity's $20 / month Pro option will still see other updated AI shopping features, including new product cards that will appear for product-related searches. For users in the US, these cards show a product image and its price, along with AI-written summaries of key features and reviews. Perplexity is also launching a new AI-powered "Snap to Shop" search tool that will let all users take a picture of a product and ask questions about it, similar to Google Lens. This feature will only be available to Pro users at launch. Perplexity also already lets Pro users make visual searches unrelated to shopping.</i>

<br> <br>
The lunar space station may be similar to the one India plans to build in Earth orbit, known as the Bharatiya Antariksh Station, or BAS. The development of this station's first module, BAS-1, was greenlit by the Indian government in September. Officials have said the first module will be launched to low Earth orbit by 2028, and the entire station will be operational by 2035. </i><br>

				China has <a href="https://interestingengineering.com/innovation/china-worlds-most-advanced-hypergravity-facility">activated the world's most advanced hypergravity machine</a> to advance studies in geological processes, material behavior, and deep-sea energy exploration. Located in Hangzhou, The Centrifugal Hypergravity and Interdisciplinary Experiment Facility (CHIEF) will be able to produce forces thousands of times stronger than Earth's gravity. Interesting Engineering reports: <i> The facility will house three primary hypergravity centrifuges and 18 onboard units. These centrifuges, machines designed to spin containers rapidly, force heavier materials to the edges or bottom by creating hypergravity conditions, as reported by the South China Morning Post (SCMP). The first centrifuge's main engine, resembling two massive arms holding experimental baskets, has been installed. According to the Hangzhou government, the fabrication of the remaining two centrifuges and 10 onboard units is underway.
<br> <br>
[...] CHIEF will surpass the capabilities of the US Army Corps of Engineers' hypergravity facility, which has a capacity of 1,200 g-t (gravity acceleration x ton). Once completed, CHIEF will feature a capacity of 1,900 g-t, making it the most advanced facility of its kind, reports SCMP. The project includes six hypergravity experiment chambers, each dedicated to a specific area, such as slope and dam engineering, seismic geotechnics, deep-sea exploration, deep-earth studies, geological processes, and materials processing.</i><br>

				An anonymous reader quotes a report from TechCrunch: <i>For the past couple of years, the startup has been iterating on a brand-new CRM platform and making everything available <a href="https://github.com/twentyhq/twenty?tab=License-1-ov-file#readme">on GitHub</a> under a permissive AGPLv3 license. While <a href="https://twenty.com/">Twenty</a> doesn't have all the features that you can find in Salesforce [<a href="https://slashdot.org/software/comparison/Salesforce-vs-Twenty/">comparison</a>], the company is <a href="https://techcrunch.com/2024/11/18/twenty-is-building-an-open-source-alternative-to-salesforce/">slowly building a community of CRM and open source enthusiasts around it</a>, with more than 300 contributors in the last year and 20,000 stars on GitHub. [...] Twenty is trying to build a flexible platform that can be tweaked to every company's needs and that can serve as a basis for other tools and use cases. Each entry in a CRM is an object. It can be a standard, pre-defined object like a person or a company. But customers can also create their own custom objects.
<br> <br>
If you're a conference organizer, you can create a conference object. If you're a restaurant chain manager, you can create a restaurant object. As you may have guessed, Twenty also lets you create custom fields for each object. This way, it's easier to capture and compare data across multiple entries. This customer data can be viewed in Twenty directly in list or Kanban views. People can sort and filter entries, add tasks and notes, all the usual CRM stuff. But data in Twenty can also be reused with GraphQL and REST APIs. And that's how you can extend Twenty beyond its CRM roots. Eventually, Twenty hopes there will be an active ecosystem of developers working on extensions and plugins to build a proper alternative to the Salesforce product suite. But we're not there yet. "Building a CRM is a daunting task, especially for us because of the way we've chosen to do it. We're building a platform, and we're not taking any shortcut. In fact, we still need to work on workflows, on automation and more," [said Twenty co-founder and CEO Felix Malfait].</i> "People often don't understand why Salesforce is so big, so powerful," Malfait said. Salesforce's platform utilizes a flexible data model -- a programming language called Apex to execute code on Salesforce's servers and a front-end customization framework.
<br> <br>
"So when you have these three bricks you can store data, do logic on the back end, and display the result as you like," Malfait said. "It means that you can do everything. And that's what we want to enable in the long term."<br>
