Microsoft in court for allegedly misleading millions of Australians over Microsoft 365 subscriptions. The ACCC has commenced proceedings in the Federal Court against Microsoft Australia and its parent company Microsoft Corporation for allegedly misleading approximately 2.7 million Australian customers when communicating subscription options and price increases, after it integrated its AI assistant, Copilot, into Microsoft 365 plans.
You wouldnt be a fly on the wall with this. No, you'd need to be a fly near a power outlet. Using the unique liquid cooling solution that can run the handheld at a 120W TDP, the results seem truly impressive, although actually using this handheld with liquid cooling is certainly stretching the definition of "handheld gaming", since the device will need to be attached to a liquid cooling base with sizable coolant tubes.
Qualcomm buys Arduino, and the open-source community is sceptical to say the least. The announcement came out of nowhere. Arduino wasn’t known to be courting a buyer, and no hint or rumor of the deal leaked beforehand—a rarity for any tech acquisition brokered in 2025. It left fans of Arduino and open-source hardware concerned about what it means for Arduino’s future. “It was a great surprise,” “To have them be bought out by a huge tech company like Qualcomm just floored me. I don’t think anyone saw that coming.”
Does your workplace use Microsoft Teams? Be wary, because the House of Windows is testing a new Teams feature that can automatically update your work location based on the Wi-Fi network you're connected to. Oh M$, wont you ever learn ? Microsoft frames the feature as a way to "reduce confusion at the workplace," helping colleagues identify who's on-site or remote—though the privacy implications speak for themselves.
With that said, the feature will apparently be off by default, and tenant admins will have the privilege of deciding whether to enable location reporting and also whether to require end-user opt-in. Of course, given how these things usually go, it wouldn't be shocking if most corporations quietly made it mandatory for everyone.
Aftahours wanted to let you know DDR5 has just surpassed 13,020 MT/s for the first time. That's a lot of 0's and 1's. Overclocker Salty Croissant has become the first to break DDR5 memory overclocking at 6510 MHz. This translates to 13020 MT/s, the highest frequency achieved so far.
Blinky sent word he only uses 508GB a month and would be happy on dial up. As of June 2025, the average Australian household pulls down 508 gigabytes of data per month through the National Broadband Network.
And finally, this Windows trackpad caught my eye. Why you wouldn't just buy the Apple track pad and run this beautiful open source driver by imbushuo is beyond me.
