Why would they delay a patch for this? Do they not know how to resolve the vulnerability?

The once-doomed MS Paint gets its first redesign in over a decade
Windows 10's version of Paint has been mostly unchanged since 2009.
The latest Windows 11 app to get a coat of paint is Paint, everyone's favorite meme-making sketching and doodling app. It's not available for download for Windows Insiders yet, but Microsoft Chief Product Officer Panos Panay posted a brief video of the new design, showing off its updated look, a new dark mode, better text tools, updated brushes, and other tweaks that collectively serve to modernize the app a bit. -

It's hardly uncommon for service providers to increase prices... not sure why you'd think MS should be different?

...especially with the insane amount of inflation this past soon to be year, it's no wonder prices are going up everywhere for everything.

You can't explain metaphors to a kleptomaniac. They take everything literally.

An impulse control disorder that is characterized by recurrent irresistible urge to steal.
I don't think you're using the word "kleptomaniac" properly...

Google is killing Android Auto for phones (if you even know what that is)
This app had an Android Auto-like interface, but for people without compatible cars.
Google is killing Android Auto. No, not that Android Auto. Google is shutting down "Android Auto for phone screens," which was an Android Auto offshoot for people who didn't have cars compatible with the service. 9to5Google confirmed the cancellation with Google, and XDA Developers spotted a shutdown message in the app pushing users to a newer Google car computing solution for phone screens: "Google Assistant driving mode." As usual, we have many similarly named Google projects to keep track of, so don't get confused!
