The first photos and parameters of the AyaNeo OLED portable game console have appeared, which the manufacturer calls the thinnest and lightest console with Windows.

Compared to the Steam Deck, the console will indeed be much smaller. But in terms of performance, these are not competitors.

As expected, the new AyaNeo is based on one of the Ryzen 5000 APUs. Which model is chosen is unclear, but in any case, the performance of the iGPU is much lower than that of the Valve console. This was to be expected, since the Next model is also based on the Ryzen 5000 line of processors, and the head of the company said that the version with the Ryzen 6000 could be released at the end of the year at best.

It is also reported that the set-top box will receive a six-inch OLED screen with Full HD resolution. That is, you will have to pay for compactness, including far from the largest screen. At the same time, Full HD resolution will create an additional load on the GPU, which will affect performance.

Another important detail is that the first data points to a processor TDP of 12W. This can be either a simple power limit limit for the conditional Ryzen 7 5800U, or an indication of the use of younger APUs in the line, for example, the Ryzen 3 5400U. And in this case, the performance in games will be even lower, since such a processor has a GPU with only 384 stream processors.

Employees of Apple and Twitter are driven to the offices

Zoe Schiffer, who was recently managing editor of Twitter and now holds the same position at Platformer, said that Apple strictly monitors how employees visit offices.

Apple tracks employee attendance (using electronic badge records) and alerts employees if they don’t show up to the office at least 3 times a week.

Some at Apple, according to Schiffer, say that non-compliance could lead to dismissal, but she added that this does not seem like company policy.

In addition, she revealed that her former boss, Elon Musk, sent an email to Twitter employees at 2:30 a.m. stating that “office visits are no longer optional.” The billionaire noticed that the San Francisco office was half empty when he last visited.

Scissors undercut Windows 11 vulnerability reveals sensitive information from screenshots

A dangerous vulnerability has been discovered in one of the standard Windows 11 applications that could lead to the disclosure of sensitive information to the user. Moreover, at the moment the vulnerability is not closed and attackers can use it.

We are talking about the application Snipping Tool (Scissors). The vulnerability, called aCropalypse, allows you to undo changes made by a user when editing a screenshot, including cropped or blurred parts that hide sensitive data.

When you edit a screenshot, you can save it with the same name as the original file by overwriting it. However, as it turns out, the Windows 11 Snipping Tool does not remove the original information from the file, but simply leaves it added at the end, which is usually invisible to users. With some trickery, a potential attacker can extract hidden information from a file and see what information has been edited.

As you can see, edited screenshots are usually much larger due to the inclusion of information from the original image.

This is a pretty serious vulnerability. For example, if you share a screenshot of an order confirmation page on Amazon, it may contain an address, the same goes for credit card numbers and other sensitive data.
