Submission + - Shai Hulud 2.0 worm nibbling through npm supply chain (www.wiz.io)

BooleanMusic writes: In a rare glimpse into what might be happening constantly, a large-scale npm supply chain attack was uncovered on November 24, 2025. The campaign appears highly effective, exploiting the self-reinforcing nature of modern software development—like a snake devouring its own tail—to spread across repositories. Reported impact includes credential theft, exposure of internal system details, and other severe compromises.
While the attack references the earlier “Shai Hulud” campaign disclosed this year, it’s unclear whether the same actors are behind it.

Almost. I have found 2 or 3 uses in which my phone connected wristwatch gave me improved user experience. Most notable is a feature to buzz on my wrist when I leave Bluetooth range of my phone. Saved me from forgetting my phone numerous times. In addition, media controls (volume/seek/track) while playing audio with my phone not directly within reach is also nice. Last and not least - pressing a button on my watch to cause the phone to buzz or sound a tone is also useful. Both to find it when it's misplaced, and to override any game/media when my kids hog my phone... In those examples, it all comes down to a control device which is more likely to be physically on my person than my phone is. BTW, all these were experienced using a Pebble, not a crazily expensive, walled garden dwelling Apple device.

Comment Some lightweight mobile - with an external mouse (Score 2, Informative) 178

If you already suffer from an injury, I really think you want to avoid any additional risks... Ask an ergonomics expert. Most likely they would recommend a lightweight computer (to avoid shoulder injury on top), with some kind of external mouse. Maybe MS arc mouse as an example
