Could Biometrics, be so easily beaten, Lets talk
It’s one of the sad facts of mobile authentication that the industry tends to initially support the least effective security options. Hence, phones initially supported authentication based on fingerprints (which can be impacted by prescriptions, cleaning products, hand injuries, and dozens of other factors) and then moved on to facial recognition.

Windows 11 Improves Menu, Taskbar
Windows 11’s taskbar is a giant step back in usability compared to Windows 10, and now Microsoft is starting to make improvements.

Finally, however, Windows 10 21H2 is out. That doesn’t mean I recommend users install it immediately. I prefer a more…
Microsoft Launches new collaborative Office doc — Loop
Built on the Fluid Framework, Microsoft’s Loop app comes in response to offerings by start-ups such as Coda and Notion and their “all-in-one” collaborative documents.
