• Dark Reading: Attackers Use Windows Screensavers to Drop Malware, RMM Tools: Just thought it was interesting that this is going in circles again. It’s been a while since i’ve seen SCR files used for malicious actions, but maybe it’s making a comeback.
• Help Net Security: Microsoft brings project-focused AI agents into OneDrive: I wanted to see if this would be beneficial for work.
• Help Net Security: Why a decade-old EnCase driver still works as an EDR killer: I saved it because it sounded interesting & i wanted to read it, plus could be beneficial for work.

• GitHub: Nezreka / Museck: “A Decky Loader plugin that streams music from your media servers on Steam Deck.”
• Nextcloud Blog: A new data access architecture for Nextcloud: introducing the ADA engine: I saved this since i am running Nextcloud at the moment. Right now it’s where i compose my posts for the site, but playing around with other notes platforms to see if there’s something else that might work better.
  • “Dubbed ADA, which stands for Accelerated Direct Access, the new engine is designed to pre-calculate and cache the data access and permissions, offering direct file access and actively pushing data to the clients, ensuring responsive access when users navigate the system.”

  • I wanted to review to see what was added in this version since i am running Homepage.
• GitHub: usememos / memos v0.26.0: " An open-source, self-hosted note-taking service. Your thoughts, your data, your control — no tracking, no ads, no subscription fees."
  • Same as above – running Memos & want to see what’s new.

  • Yet another notes app i can try…

• GitHub: 1Panel-dev / 1Panel: " 🔥 1Panel offers an intuitive web interface for Linux server, making it easy to manage OpenClaw agents, LLMs, websites, databases, containers, files, and scheduled tasks."
  • Since most of my “servers” are Linux, a single \ central place to at least monitor would be nice. I’ve tried using Cockpit but it doesn’t have full capabilities on certain distros & didn’t really give me a single view of everything.
• NetBox: “Manage your network and infrastructure with confidence. NetBox is the world’s most popular platform for understanding, operating, automating, and securing networks.”
  • I can’t remember if I’ve tried this before.
