Microsoft and Volkswagon have teamed up to solve this particular issue, as announced in an official Microsoft blog post. The pair worked to optimize Microsoft’s HoloLens AR glasses, so they perform admirably even when careening down the highway in a car. What’s the problem, and how did they solve it? HoloLens and related AR devices use a combination of camera sensors, accelerometers, and gyroscopes, but in a car, those latter two readings conflict, as the headset senses movement but sees a static landscape....

Technically classified as a privilege escalation flaw, the bug enables attackers to become administrators if they have physical access to a computer. Interestingly, Microsoft first fixed the bug in August 2021, before the researcher who discovered it found the fix was broken. Microsoft then patched it again in January 2022, but this second fix was also found to be ineffective. “It’s, unfortunately, more common than it should be for any vendor to attempt to fix a vulnerability, only for people to find out that the fix isn’t as complete as it should be,” Will Dormann, Vulnerability Analyst at CERT/CC, told Lifewire in a Twitter DM....

The new options are available for free, and the company hopes that people who already use Teams for work will find it easy to invite their friends, family, and other contacts into the app....

Biology Villagers are a passive mob that spawns in villages. Villagers come with many different professions and forms. The different professions of Villagers are farmers, blacksmiths, butchers, priests, and librarians. Their different forms are Baby Villagers (practically the same thing as a normal villager, but a baby) and the Zombie Villagers. Zombie Villagers act as if they are normal zombies, but keep the qualities of a villager. Currently, the only quality kept on a Zombie Villager that comes from the normal villagers is the head, which has a green hue versus the normal skin color....

Safari and Chrome add tabs across the top of the browser window, like tabs in a filing cabinet. These shrink as more tabs are opened, and eventually, you have to search for nothing but a website’s favicon. Vertical tabs move these labels to the side. You may still run out of space and have to scroll through the list, but each tab keeps its full width, which you can even increase to see the entire title of the page....

What Is an MSDVD File? A file with the MSDVD file extension is a Windows DVD Maker project.

Although not as common, some files with the MSDVD extension are macros created by Macro Magic. How to Open an MSDVD File MSDVD files can be opened with Windows DVD Maker....

When Will the Nintendo Switch Pro Be Released? It’s tough to say when or if the Switch Pro will come out because, well, Nintendo hasn’t said anything about it. Some say we won’t see new hardware until after March 2023, and Nintendo president Shuntaro Furukawa said the following in early August 2022: This could suggest that a new model shouldn’t be expected anytime soon. But at the same time, it doesn’t really exclude the possibility....

They aren’t ugly. They look completely fine. And maybe people don’t want their sound gear to draw a lot of attention when they’re just trying to ride the bus in peace.
