Mythos Preview Sparks a Security Reboot for Software

Anthropic’s Claude Mythos Preview can identify vulnerabilities across systems and autonomously develop exploits, a capability the company says will force a cybersecurity rethink. It’s being tested with Project Glasswing among a limited group of tech giants to give defenders a head start, but experts are divided: some see it as a real threat that could accelerate exploit chains and zero-click attacks, while others view it as hype. Regardless, the rollout is framed as a wake-up call to move toward secure-by-design software and machine-scale defenses rather than relying solely on patching and reaction.

Green fireball lights up Northwest Ohio skies in latest meteor sighting

Green fireball lights up Northwest Ohio skies in latest meteor sighting

A green fireball was reported over northwest Ohio at about 4:52 a.m. Thursday, with video and sightings from Fostoria, Maumee, Swanton and Perrysburg, plus reports across southern Michigan and western Pennsylvania. This marks the third meteor-related sighting in the region in a little over two weeks, following a March 17 Medina County event described by NASA as a seven-ton small asteroid and a March 24 fireball over the Great Lakes. UToledo astronomer Michael Cushing notes that tiny space rocks constantly enter Earth’s atmosphere and burn up; when larger they can produce a sonic boom, though no boom was reported this time. No immediate National Weather Service update was available.)

Salesforce shifts pay strategy: no raises for senior staff as stock-based incentives rise

Salesforce will skip base salary raises for directors and above this year, opting to boost stock grants and bonuses for top performers; pay details will be revealed during performance reviews that begin later this month, with more directors receiving stock grants, higher average grants, and a 103% funded bonus pool, in a move aligned with a broader tech pivot toward equity-based compensation amid a roughly 37% drop in Salesforce stock over the past year.

Quad Amputee Cornhole Pro Faces Murder Charge After In-Car Shooting

Dayton James Webber, a professional cornhole player and quadruple amputee, is charged with first- and second-degree murder after allegedly shooting a man during an argument in a car near La Plata, Md. After the shooting, he reportedly pulled over and asked passengers to help remove the victim, then drove off with Wells still in the vehicle. The body was found hours later, and Webber was arrested after seeking treatment at a hospital; he’ll be extradited to Charles County to face charges.

Windows Copilot Backlash Pushes Microsoft to Reassess AI Integration

Microsoft is facing consumer backlash over its aggressive Copilot AI integration across Windows 11, prompting a pledge to trim Copilot entry points in apps like Notepad, Snipping Tool, Photos, and Widgets and to focus on more useful, well-crafted features; critics warn of AI bloat and security risks, while users consider Linux or Apple’s MacBook Neo as alternatives amid Windows 12 rumors and ongoing update issues.

Ancient Plesiosaur Skin Reveals Smooth Tail and Scaly Flippers

A 183-million-year-old plesiosaur fossil (MH7) preserved skin showing a smooth tail and small scales along the rear edges of the flippers, offering rare soft-tissue insights that help reconstruct these sea predators and infer swimming adaptations; soft-tissue preservation is exceptionally rare, with only a handful of plesiosaurs known to have such specimens.

Theobromine in chocolate could slow aging, study suggests

Theobromine in chocolate could slow aging, study suggests

A King's College London study found higher blood theobromine levels, a compound in dark chocolate and coffee, are linked to slower biological aging markers (GrimAge and DNAmTL) in about 1,600 adults, even after accounting for caffeine; the signal is strongest among former-smokers and appears independent of caffeine. However, the study is observational and cannot prove causation, so researchers advocate focusing on overall diet quality rather than chasing a single nutrient, while noting dark chocolate’s sugar and fat content and the importance of modest portions.

Browns snag Tytus Howard from Texans to fortify the exterior

Browns snag Tytus Howard from Texans to fortify the exterior

The Cleveland Browns acquired Texans right tackle Tytus Howard for a 2026 fifth-round pick, adding a 93-game starter and former first-rounder who posted a 77.1 PFF pass-blocking grade in 2025. Houston traded him to clear cap space on a final-year deal, reportedly with Cleveland signing him to a 3-year, $63M contract to finalize the deal. The move gives Cleveland a starting OT for 2026 and beyond as they plan to address the other tackle in the 2026 draft.

Oceanwide Plaza's new owners brace for costly graffiti cleanup

New buyers of downtown LA's Oceanwide Plaza—often called the graffiti towers—must tackle graffiti removal first, with cleanup possibly costing hundreds of thousands to millions of dollars; experts describe chemical stripping for concrete or glass-bead blasting for paint on glass, plus significant challenges on 500-foot towers and safety planning, as the $470 million sale awaits final court approval.

Flagship Face-off: Galaxy S26 Ultra edges Pixel 10 Pro XL in features

ZDNET's hands-on Unpacked week comparison finds the Galaxy S26 Ultra offers a feature-rich package (OneUI 8.5, S Pen support, glare-free Privacy Display, top-tier AMOLED LTPO display, and fast 60W charging) while the Pixel 10 Pro XL shines with Google's clean software, long Update window, and a forgiving camera system driven by Tensor G5 AI; the author leans toward the S26 Ultra for the overall package but recommends waiting for a good deal.

Earth-ward CME from X-class flare could spark auroras within 24 hours

Earth-ward CME from X-class flare could spark auroras within 24 hours

An X1.9 solar flare from the Sun triggered a fast Earth-directed coronal mass ejection (CME) forecast to reach Earth within about 24 hours. If the CME’s magnetic orientation (Bz) is southward, it could couple with Earth’s magnetosphere and drive strong (G3) to severe (G4) geomagnetic storm conditions, potentially lighting up auroras as far south as parts of the U.S. (e.g., Northern California to Alabama). Forecasters caution that CME arrivals are hard to pin down and depend on magnetic orientation; disruptions to satellites, GPS, and radio signals and increased atmospheric drag on spacecraft are possible alongside spectacular auroral displays depending on the event’s exact geometry and timing.
