Russia Plans Law Forcing Banks to Use State Messenger Max for Transaction Verification

Russian authorities are advancing legislation that requires banks to verify customer financial transactions through the state-controlled messaging platform, Max, as part of the "Antifraud 2.0" initiative, which is awaiting its second reading in the State Duma. The proposed law mandates confirmation via the government messenger for all significant remote actions, but lacks clarity on what constitutes a significant action. The National Financial Market Council has opposed the initiative, labeling it as legally excessive and costly, and expressing concerns about the security risks and technical limitations of the platform. Experts argue that existing banking security measures are more effective than those proposed, and users of Max have reported being subscribed to pro-war channels without consent, indicating a lack of trust in the platform among officials and employees.

Microsoft will no longer auto-install M365 Copilot app on Windows PCs

Microsoft has temporarily suspended the automatic installation of the Microsoft 365 Copilot app on Windows PCs equipped with M365 applications due to user resistance. The rollout, which began in December, was intended to integrate AI functionalities across tools like Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. Users in the European Economic Area were excluded by default, and IT administrators had the option to opt out. Existing installations of the app will not be removed, and users can choose to uninstall it if desired. Microsoft plans to provide further updates before any future rollout.

Microsoft Quietly Retreats from Copilot Push in Windows 11

Microsoft is scaling back the integration of Copilot AI into Windows 11 due to user feedback and privacy concerns. Plans for features like Copilot notifications have been canceled, and AI tools will now be optional, primarily available on Copilot+ PCs, with more data processing occurring locally. The company aims to reduce AI complexity and focus on performance and user control. Microsoft has also removed Copilot branding from some applications and is shifting towards standalone AI tools rather than system-wide integration. The lukewarm market response to Copilot+ PCs has further influenced this strategic change.

This spiritual successor to Desert Strike has exploded into Steam early access with a 98% positive rating, and its developer plans to represent the whole Strike series in future updates

Desert Strike is a classic helicopter shooter that evokes nostalgia for many gamers, including a player whose father, usually indifferent to gaming, engaged with him in the game. The sequel, Jungle Strike, was also enjoyed by the duo. Recently, a spiritual successor named Cleared Hot was released on Steam, receiving a 98% 'Overwhelmingly Positive' rating from over 1,200 reviews. Cleared Hot features a lighthearted narrative where a once-celebrated pilot now completes quirky tasks, although it has a basic user interface and voice acting. The developers, Not Knowing Corporation, plan to add new environments and encapsulate the essence of the Strike series in future updates. Additionally, last year, Megacopter: Blades of the Goddess was released, featuring a vibrant visual style and a fantastical combat scenario against alien lizard people.

We used to be a society (with a good Windows Task Manager icon)

Microsoft has made changes to its Task Manager, including addressing a bug that allowed it to function with unusual persistence. The Task Manager icon has been redesigned to align with Windows 11's aesthetic, featuring an abstract design that has drawn criticism for lacking clarity compared to the previous straightforward light blue line graph. Users have expressed frustration over the new icon, which resembles vague imagery rather than a clear performance indicator. There is a nostalgic fondness for the original Task Manager icon from the Windows 2000 and XP era, which effectively communicated its purpose.
