The timing matters. DLSS 5 went live on September 3 at 9 p.m. Pacific inside NBA 2K27, the first game to ship with the feature, tied to a new GeForce Game Ready driver. Within days, RTX 40 owners were already running a modified version of it themselves. NVIDIA’s confirmation effectively catches up to what its…
Session hijacking has quietly become the top way attackers get into corporate accounts in 2026, and it works whether or not you have MFA turned on. A single infostealer infection now yields an average of 44 passwords but 1,861 cookies, according to password and passkey usage research published in mid-2026, and cookies are what attackers…

Shadow PC users have had a rough stretch in 2026. The service split its lineup into Lite, Neo, and Power tiers, added a 120-hour Fair Use cap on the cheaper plans, and left the promised “additional hours” add-on unshipped as of late August.
