In this latest State of the Thunder, we're discussing the upcoming yearly ESR, 140.0, which is due out June 24, 2025. We explain our numbering convention and our different channels, which comes from Firefox, and the difference between ESR, Release, Beta, and Daily. Find out why we're encouraging to use the monthly Release channel, but how this won't take anything away from ESR. Learn more about what channel is right for you (especially if you use add-ons), how to help us with using Beta and Daily, and how to safely move between ESR and Release. And as always, we finish with a community shoutout!

Ron Anderson has been the jockey agent to the stars. In more than a half-century in racing, he has collected a lot of stories. He tells some of them on this week's episode of the Ron Flatter Racing Pod. Anderson talks about what it takes to be a good jockey agent, how it is a difficult craft to teach and how old-fashioned, face-to-face communication is vital to succeeding in his role. It is not just successes that have defined his career. Anderson tells his famous story of a star horse that got away from one of his clients. He also talks about how bettors can relate to his ups and downs. With Gary Stevens, Jerry Bailey, Garrett Gómez and Chris Antley among his former clients, Anderson discusses how he juggles diverse personalities, especially with his current stars Frankie Dettori and Joel Rosario. Anderson also applies his vast experience in racing to say what he might change about the game if he had his way. The Ron Flatter Racing Pod via Horse Racing Nation is available via free subscription from Apple, Firefox, iHeart and Spotify as well as HorseRacingNation.com.

This is the summer when old Pimlico is scheduled to be torn down with a new racecourse grandstand being built in time for Preakness 2027. How will that concept become a reality? On this week's Ron Flatter Racing Pod, new Maryland Jockey Club president and general manager Bill Knauf gets into the details as the episode's sole guest. Knauf discusses his more than quarter-century at Monmouth Park, where he worked hand in hand with a management team which brought sports betting and fixed-odds wagering to the Jersey Shore racetrack. The move of the Preakness to Laurel Park in 2026 and whether the new Pimlico will be ready in time for the 2027 renewal also comes up. The conversation covers how the new Pimlico may look and when plans may be finalized for the rebuilding of the Baltimore racetrack. Knauf offers thoughts about whether the $400 million budgeted for the project will be enough to cover the cost. Knauf also talks about the future of racing in the mid-Atlantic region, especially the relationship the new Maryland Jockey Club will have with its neighbors in Virginia. Of course any discussion of Pimlico will lead to thoughts about the spacing of the three Triple Crown races and whether it should be changed. The Ron Flatter Racing Pod via Horse Racing Nation is available via free subscription from Apple, Firefox, iHeart and Spotify as well as HorseRacingNation.com.

Meta and Yandex covertly tracked Android users through their apps, which listened silently on local ports to intercept browsing data and link online activities to user identities, evading common privacy measures like cookie deletion or Incognito Mode. Users can protect themselves by uninstalling these apps, switching to privacy-focused browsers (e.g., Firefox, Brave, DuckDuckGo), and closely managing device permissions.Sonoma County faces criticism and a lawsuit from the ACLU for expanding drone surveillance beyond cannabis cultivation monitoring into widespread warrantless surveillance of private properties. This has raised concerns over constitutional privacy rights, government overreach, and accountability.New York's "Keep Police Radio Public Act" seeks to maintain transparency by preventing the NYPD from encrypting radio communications completely, ensuring continued access for emergency responders and the press. This transparency balances public oversight and law enforcement needs, essential for democratic accountability.AI-generated influence operations, some linked to China, have surfaced, spreading misinformation on social media platforms on geopolitical topics. Users are advised to adopt digital skepticism, critically evaluate online content, and verify information to avoid falling victim to AI-driven propaganda.BADBOX 2.0 malware has infected over a million IoT devices like uncertified Android TVs and tablets, turning them into proxies for cybercriminal activities. The FBI advises users to purchase certified devices from reputable brands, regularly update firmware, monitor suspicious network activity, and isolate infected devices quickly.Recent findings indicate Chinese state-backed hackers infiltrated a U.S. telecom company in 2023, earlier than previously known, using sophisticated malware. This underscores persistent threats to critical communication infrastructures and highlights the vulnerability of essential national systems.Apple's research reveals significant limitations in current advanced AI models' actual reasoning abilities. Despite impressive superficial outputs, these models collapse when facing complex or novel tasks, raising doubts about their cognitive capabilities. Apple's findings prompt caution about relying too heavily on AI-driven systems.The overarching theme connecting these issues is the rapid erosion of individual privacy and national security due to covert data tracking, unauthorized surveillance, sophisticated cyberattacks, and misuse of advanced AI technologies. This underscores the need for greater transparency, robust security practices, and enhanced critical awareness from individuals to protect fundamental rights and national security interests.

EP 246...And in this update, the subject of overreach.  Just last week, Meta and Yandex ceased covert tracking practices on Android apps that exploited localhost communications to collect user data, prompting recommendations to use privacy-focused browsers like Firefox, Brave, or DuckDuckGo.  The ACLU filed a lawsuit against Sonoma County, California, alleging its drone program, initially for tracking illegal cannabis, has expanded into unauthorized surveillance of private properties, raising ire or the local residents and serious privacy concerns.  New York lawmakers passed the “Keep Police Radio Public Act” to maintain public access to NYPD radio communications, balancing transparency with law enforcement needs, but it still needs Governor Hochul's approval.  OpenAI has dismantled ten overreaching influence operations, including four likely linked to Chinese actors, which used AI to generate social media content aimed at swaying opinions on global issues.  The FBI warns that the BADBOX 2.0 malware has infected over 1 million Android-based IoT devices, urging users to avoid uncertified gadgets and monitor network activity to prevent cybercriminal exploitation.  Evidence of a 2023 Chinese state-backed hack into a U.S. telecom company reveals earlier-than-known breaches, again sounding the alarm over vulnerabilities in critical communications infrastructure.  Apple's research reveals limitations in advanced AI reasoning models, showing performance declines in complex tasks and questioning their true cognitive capabilities, as outlined in their paper, The Illusion of Thinking.Come on!  Let's discover what's under-achieving and who's overreaching!Find the full transcript to this podcast here.

The Belmont Stakes rematch of this year's classic winners Sovereignty and Journalism is the focus of this week's Ron Flatter Racing Pod. Maggie Wolfendale-Morley from New York Racing Association TV and Fox Sports is at Saratoga, where she paints the scene for this second year the  Belmont migrates to its home away from home. She offers a snapshot of the race with some angles that might not be so obvious to handicappers. Trainer John Shirreffs discusses Baeza, who has all the makings of the wise-guy horse in this year's Belmont field. He also extolls the virtues of Saratoga, particularly as a haven for horses. Paddock Prince handicapper David Levitch has advice on how to bet an all-Grade 1 trio of races, namely the Woody Stephens, the Manhattan and the Belmont Stakes. The hard-core handicappers Johnny Avello, Ed DeRosa and Mark Midland have bonus picks for Saturday's Saratoga undercard. Co-host John Cherwa of the Los Angeles Times joins in the reading of audience feedback to last week's column pining for a Kentucky Derby victor to win again, just as Mystik Dan did last Saturday in the Blame Stakes (G3) at Churchill Downs. The Ron Flatter Racing Pod via Horse Racing Nation is available via free subscription from Apple, Firefox, iHeart and Spotify as well as HorseRacingNation.com.

On les installe souvent en un clic, sans trop y penser. Les extensions pour Chrome, Firefox ou Edge sont devenues des outils du quotidien. Mais derrière leur promesse de nous simplifier la vie, certaines cachent des pratiques douteuses : collecte abusive de données, arnaques à l'affiliation, voire logiciels malveillants. C'est pour faire la lumière sur ces risques que la société de cybersécurité LayerX vient de lancer un tout nouveau site : ExtensionPedia. Un nom qui claque et une ambition claire : devenir le Wikipédia des extensions.Dans une publication récente, LayerX présente cette plateforme comme une base de données dédiée à l'analyse des risques liés aux extensions de navigateur. On y retrouve les plugins les plus populaires, classés par catégories — intelligence artificielle, gestion de mots de passe, VPN, traduction, productivité... Plus de 200 000 extensions y sont référencées, avec une évaluation basée sur différents critères de sécurité et de confidentialité.ExtensionPedia propose notamment un score de risque global, une analyse des permissions demandées, et une estimation de la réputation de chaque extension. Une initiative louable, surtout face à l'opacité de certaines boutiques officielles. Mais la vraie question reste : les utilisateurs auront-ils le réflexe d'aller vérifier chaque extension avant de l'installer ? Rien n'est moins sûr. Car si l'outil est riche, il est aussi technique — et pourrait décourager les moins initiés. Reste à voir si cette plateforme saura s'imposer dans les habitudes numériques. En attendant, elle est d'ores et déjà accessible gratuitement en ligne. Pour les plus prudents, c'est sans doute un nouvel allié de poids.https://layerxsecurity.com/extensions/ Hébergé par Acast.

Deep analysis of every horse in Belmont Stakes 2025 is ready to hear now from the hard-core handicappers in their latest pop-up episode of the Ron Flatter Racing Pod. Horse Racing Nation handicappers Mark Midland and Ed DeRosa are joined by DraftKings Sportsbook director Johnny Avello. They go through the entire field, 1 through 8, including Kentucky Derby winner Sovereignty and Preakness winner Journalism. How will they play the two classic winners, and how short is too short to bet them to win or in exotics? How will the wise-guy status of Baeza or the presence of Bob Baffert with Rodríguez skew the odds? Who are the pretenders amid the contenders? Where is the value? How will the horses take to the track at Saratoga? The panel answers all those questions. The Ron Flatter Racing Pod via Horse Racing Nation is available via free subscription from Apple, Firefox, iHeart and Spotify as well as HorseRacingNation.com.

It's been 4 years since TypeScript schema validation library Zod released v3, but the new v4 release makes it worth the wait. Expect faster parsing times across the board, built in error pretty-printing, and even a tree-shakeable API called Zod Mini for constrained environments like edge runtimes.There's a new npm-based CLI tool for managing and sharing AI rules across different editors and tools called vibe-rules. In addition to saving favorite prompts so they can be applied to any supported editor, vibe-rules can also automatically install prompts shared in a project's NPM packages into an editor's configuration. It's early days yet, but a great idea to make prompts easier for anyone to use.Angular v20 is out with some much anticipated highlights. Stabilized signal-based APIs, incremental hydration, custom Angular reporting directly in Chrome DevTools, GenAI development advancements, and, last but not least, a RFC for an official Angular mascot.

A preliminary look at next week's running of Belmont Stakes 2025 and a preview of this weekend's return of Kentucky Derby 2024 winner Mystik Dan to Churchill Downs are the centers of attention on this week's Ron Flatter Racing Pod. From the New York Racing Association and Fox Sports, former jockey Richard Migliore offers his perspective on the Triple Crown and how the rematch of Sovereignty and Journalism might unfold next Saturday. He also offers his thoughts about Júnior Alvarado, Umberto Rispoli and their winning rides in the Kentucky Derby and Preakness and all the controversy that went with them. Brian Hernandez Jr., who rode Mystik Dan and Thorpedo Anna to triumphs last year in the Kentucky Derby and Grade 1 Kentucky Oaks, discusses both horses and their upcoming races. He focuses most of his attention on Saturday's running of the Blame Stakes (G3), where Mystik Dan tries to get his first victory since last year's Derby. Super Screener creator Mike Shutty has some early thoughts about the Belmont Stakes and specific tips for the Arlington (G3), Blame and Regret (G3) on Saturday at Churchill Downs. Co-host John Cherwa from the Los Angeles Times joins in the feedback from listeners and readers reacting to the death of trainer Christophe Clément. The Ron Flatter Racing Pod via Horse Racing Nation is available via free siption from Apple, Firefox, iHeart and Spotify as well as HorseRacingNation.com.

The Preakness 2025 hangover has not been cured yet, and why should it? One of the great races of all time is subject to review as the Belmont Stakes looms on the horizon on the Ron Flatter Racing Pod. Two-time Eclipse Award-winning turf writer John Scheinman from Baltimore has his thoughts about the race, the Triple Crown schedule and the future of racing in Maryland with old Pimlico scheduled to be demolished this year. Bernie Hettel, the former top steward in Kentucky and Arkansas, weighs in with his opinion about Journalism's squeeze to victory in the Preakness and who should have been disqualified if anyone in one of the most physical stretch runs in Triple Crown history. He also has thoughts about the crop penalty assessed to jockey Júnior Alvarado in riding Sovereignty to a Kentucky Derby triumph. Ed DeRosa looks ahead to the holiday weekend with handicapping of races at Santa Anita and Churchill Downs. Co-host John Cherwa helps to go over some of the listener and reader feedback about Journalism's Preakness victory. The Ron Flatter Racing Pod via Horse Racing Nation is available via free subscription from Apple, Firefox, iHeart and Spotify as well as HorseRacingNation.com.

This show has been flagged as Clean by the host. Recently I had a discussion on Mastodon about mobile phone applications. The other person stated "the web belongs to web browsers". I agreed to it as a general good approach. Some dedicated apps cannot be substituted with the browser, but some can. I do not have so many apps myself, but anyway that statement got me to review a couple of my apps how they works in the Firefox browser. And actually, I could delete three apps and all functions I needed from them can be managed from Firefox. Beside traditional bookmarks, those pages can be pinned to the Firefox start page or placed like a webapp on the mobile screen, so they look like an ordinary app. Using the Firefox browser makes it easier to control the privacy. In addition to what is built into Firefox, I currently also have the two extensions, Privacy Badger and uBlock Origin in my Firefox browser. Beside privacy and in general to be somewhat more in control, this approach also reduces the number of apps to keep updated and reduce storage need. Sometimes apps are necessary of otherwise beneficial. But I think the traditional browser should not be forgotten also on the smart mobile phone. Provide feedback on this episode.

Welcome to episode 304 of The Cloud Pod – where the forecast is always cloudy! Justin, Ryan and Matt are in the house tonight to bring you all the latest and greatest in Cloud and AI news, including AWS new Chilean region, the ongoing tug of war between Open AI and Microsoft, and even some K8 updates – plus an aftershow. Let's get started!  Titles we almost went with this week: Open AI gets a COO delivered Things get Chile with new regions Observability and AI, I Q-uestion the logic Cloud Pod tries to Microsoft Build predictions K8 resizes pods on the fly Microsoft strongly reinforces the AI Foundry The Cloud Pod renegotiates the hosts’ contracts … we now have to pay the Cloud Pod to be on it  Follow Up  01:53 DOJ’s extreme proposals will hurt consumers and America’s tech leadership  We previously talked about the DOJ and Google Antitrust lawsuit – and now the DOJ has wrapped up their remedies hearing, and Google has *not* been quiet about it. One of the claims is that the remedies would hurt browser choice, putting browsers like Firefox out of business completely.  Google also claimed that data disclosure mandates would threaten user's privacy – it would be MUCH safer if they could just sell it to you via their marketplace.  We do agree that divesting Chrome would make things more complicated for people living in the Google Cloud.  Really, what comes down to is that Google claims DOJ's solutions are the wrong solutions – although to us, Google's solutions aren't much better.  AI – Or How ML Makes Money  09:20 OpenAI Expands Leadership with Fidji Simo  OpenAI Hires Instacart CEO Simo For Major Leadership Role  OpenAI is hiring Fidji Simo as the CEO of applications, representing a major restructuring of leadership at the company.  She was the CEO at

This weekend may be for the last time when Preakness 2025 is run at old Pimlico. It is the site for this week's Ron Flatter Racing Pod. Michael McCarthy, the trainer of Journalism, discusses the timeline since his colt finished second in the Kentucky Derby and how he looks at being the favorite for the Preakness. Trainer Jamie Osborne talks about the reasons he decided not to bring Heart of Honor from across the Atlantic to race in the Derby and why he chose the Preakness for this colt and his daughter Saffie to ride in the U.S. From 1/ST Racing, the outgoing managers of the Preakness, TV host and analyst Ron Nicoletti and executive vice president Mike Rogers discuss not only Saturday's classic but also the transition of the Preakness and the rest of the state's racing to the new Maryland Jockey Club. Paddock Prince handicapper David Levitch offers analysis of both the Grade 2 Black-Eyed Susan on Friday and the Preakness on Saturday, even offering advice based on the weather whether it is rain or shine. Co-host John Cherwa from the Los Angeles Times discusses the big fine incurred by jockey Júnior Alvarado for overuse of the riding crop on Sovereignty to win the Kentucky Derby. They also look at listener and reader feedback about the idea to expand the Triple Crown by one week. The Ron Flatter Racing Pod via Horse Racing Nation is available via free subscription from Apple, Firefox, iHeart and Spotify as well as HorseRacingNation.com.

The remedy phase of one of the antitrust cases against Google wrapped up last week and the judge is expected to issue his decision by August on how the company must address its monopoly in search. One option suggested by the Justice Department: ban Google from paying browsers to make its search engine the default. But Mozilla, the developer of the independent Firefox browser, has opposed this remedy. Marketplace's Meghan McCarty Carino spoke with Laura Chambers, CEO of the Mozilla Corporation, about how the move would be crippling for smaller browsers like theirs.

From Pimlico in Baltimore, deep analysis of every horse in Preakness 2025 is ready to hear now from the hard-core handicappers in their latest pop-up episode of the Ron Flatter Racing Pod. Horse Racing Nation handicappers Mark Midland and Ed DeRosa are joined by DraftKings Sportsbook director Johnny Avello. They go through the entire field from 1 to 9, including morning-line favorite and Kentucky Derby runner-up Journalism. How will they play Journalism, and how short is too short to bet him to win or even in exotics? Will the social-media popularity of Sandman skew his odds? How about Bob Baffert's new shooter Goal Oriented and the almost forgotten graded-stakes winner Gosger? Who are the pretenders amid the contenders? Where is the value? The panel answers all those questions. The Ron Flatter Racing Pod via Horse Racing Nation is available via free subscription from Apple, Firefox, iHeart and Spotify as well as HorseRacingNation.com.

YOU ARE THE PRODUCT! But... are you? In Russia, Windows 11 uses you! Plus, something happened to Paul on the way to dual-booting Ubuntu 25.04 on Surface Laptop 7, but all is well! Also, you should be using Brave. But if you don't like/trust Chromium, Firefox 138 finally added profile management support. Windows Windows 11 24H2 preview update for April finally arrives Now we know why Microsoft waited: It wanted to announce the "general availability" of Recall, Click to Do, and "improved Windows Search" (we're still struggling with a name for that one) Dev and Beta (24H2) builds add a profanity filter, a Pen shortcut for Click to Do, improved Windows Search for work and school accounts, Accessibility flyout in Quick settings Microsoft (sort of) explains why Windows Insider Preview channels don't follow a logical order anymore Microsoft deprecates Map app in Windows 11 That makes sense. But also VBS Enclaves in pre-24H2 versions, which is interesting Corporate Microsoft says it will defend EU companies against US government Alphabet/Google is doing just great, thanks Intel earnings are flat, and that's as good as that news gets Samsung posts record revenues on strong S25 series sales Dev Build and Google I/O are coming in hot Google is holding a separate Android event for the first time, ahead of I/O What about Surface? At Build last year, the company announced Copilot+ PC AI Microsoft has an OpenAI problem - duh and/or hello Microsoft is part of an AI unholy quaternity on new Moto phones Duolingo announces controversial "AI first" strategy - And then announces 148 new AI-based courses Apple on Apple Intelligence: Just kidding!

Enabling Firefox's Tab Grouping. Recalled Recall Re-Rolls out. The crucial CVE program nearly died. It's been given new life. China confesses to hacking the US (blames our stance on Taiwan). CISA says what Oracle still refuses to. Brute force attacks on the (rapid) rise. An AI/ML Python package rates a 9.8 (again!) The CA/Browser forum passed short-life certs. :( A wonderful crosswalk hack hits Silicon Valley. Android to add force restarting ahead of schedule. Maybe. The EFF is never happy. But especially now, about Florida. Interesting research into ransomware payouts. Windows Sandbox: The amazing gem hidden inside all Windows 10 & 11!
