StorageReview set a new record by calculating 314 trilling digits of pi. The calculation ran for months on a single Dell PowerEdge R7725, pushing modern CPU and storage infrastructure to the limit while demonstrating just how far enterprise hardware has come. When the run finally finished, however, the record itself turned out to be only part of the story. The computation produced a massive dataset comprising 628 files, each roughly 206 GB, totaling over 130 TB.

You should update your iPhone to avoid a serious exploit. Google Threat Intelligence Group (GTIG) has identified a new iOS full-chain exploit that leveraged multiple zero-day vulnerabilities to fully compromise devices. Based on toolmarks in recovered payloads, we believe the exploit chain to be called DarkSword. Since at least November 2025, GTIG has observed multiple commercial surveillance vendors and suspected state-sponsored actors utilizing DarkSword in distinct campaigns.
The laws around deepfakes became more strict in NSW last month. In 2025, the NSW Government strengthened protections against the non-consensual recording or sharing of sexual content by amending the Crimes Act 1900. The Act already covered sexually explicit image material but now includes digitally-generated deepfakes. This means that it is a crime in NSW to create or share sexual images or audio without consent – regardless of how they were made. It is also a crime to threaten to make such material.
