  • Microsoft’s Windows XP Crocs are no joke

    Microsoft’s Windows XP Crocs are no joke

    Microsoft isn’t done celebrating its 50th anniversary just yet. Multiple employees tell me that Microsoft has created limited edition Windows XP-themed Crocs. They even come with a Clippy shoe charm if the Bliss wallpaper on your feet wasn’t enough 50-year nostalgia.

    The anniversary edition Crocs are currently available for preorder for Microsoft employees, who “get first dibs” ahead of a “worldwide launch,” I’m told. The $80 pair of Crocs include a six-pack of Microsoft Jibbitz that you can attach to your shoes, with nostalgic options like the original MSN logo, the Internet Explorer icon, Clippy, and a mouse pointer.

    On top the Crocs feature the iconic blue sky and clouds from the Windows XP wallpaper, with a green sole to mimic the grass. The photograph of the rolling hills and blue skies of California was initially a stock photo before Microsoft acquired the rights and used it as the default wallpaper for millions of Windows XP users. It could be the most viewed photograph in the world, making it an instantly recognizable image for many.

    You’ll also get a Bliss drawstring backpack to wear, just in case onlookers were unclear if your footwear was the Windows XP wallpaper or not. Hopefully each pair won’t smell like a dusty beige PC and Internet Explorer doesn’t automatically install once you’re wearing them.

    I asked Microsoft about its Windows XP Crocs, but the company refused to comment. I’m expecting to see an official announcement in the coming days.

  • Trump says pharma tariffs could eventually reach up to 250%

    Trump says pharma tariffs could eventually reach up to 250%

    U.S. President Donald Trump talks to members of the press at Lehigh Valley International Airport in Allentown, Pennsylvania, U.S., August 3, 2025.

    Ken Cedeno | Reuters

    President Donald Trump told CNBC’s “Squawk Box” on Tuesday that planned tariffs on pharmaceuticals imported into the U.S. could eventually reach up to 250%, the highest rate he has threatened so far.

    He said he will initially impose a “small tariff” on pharmaceuticals, but then in a year to a year and a half “maximum,” he will raise that rate to 150% and then 250%.

    The president has repeatedly threatened and then changed course on tariff proposals, so there’s no guarantee he will eventually set pharmaceutical tariffs at the 250% rate. In early July, Trump had threatened 200% tariffs on pharmaceuticals.

    The Trump administration in April initiated a so-called Section 232 investigation on pharmaceutical products. That’s a legal authority that allows the secretary of Commerce to investigate the impact of imports on national security.

    Those planned levies would deal a blow to the pharmaceutical industry, which has warned that the tariffs could drive up costs, deter investments in the U.S. and disrupt the drug supply chain, putting patients at risk. Drugmakers are already navigating the fallout from Trump’s drug pricing policies, which they argue threaten both their bottom lines and their capacity to invest in research and development.

    That includes Trump’s executive order in May that revives a controversial plan, the “most favored nation” policy, that aims to slash drug costs by tying the prices of some medicines in the U.S. to the significantly lower ones abroad.

    This is breaking news. Please refresh for updates.

  • Michael Jackson tribute album reports ‘false’

    Michael Jackson tribute album reports ‘false’

    K-pop band BTS have denied reports they are due to appear on a Michael Jackson tribute album.

    The group were also said to be in line to record an unreleased track written by the singer during a stay in Ireland in 2006.

    Some fan accounts linked the Korean act to a report in The Sun said “superstar artists” were due to make new versions of the album, despite there being no reference to them in the article.

    In a message on X, BTS posted a message stating that the idols had not been “in any recording sessions at the location mentioned” and that the group was not “involved in the tribute album in any capacity”.

    The band’s management moved to squash the rumours after some fan accounts announced their involvement in the project, with some even stating that recording sessions had taken place.

    According to The Sun, Jackson spent time at Grouse Lodge Studios, County Westmeath, in 2006 after being acquitted of child abuse allegations.

    Studio owner Paddy Dunn told the paper the star was working on a planned comeback during his time in Ireland, but died in 2009 before completing work on the project.

    BTS have been compared to the so-called “King of Pop” by critics due to their cultural impact and international fame.

    They were also mentioned in a documentary marking the 40th anniversary of Thriller, one of Jackson’s most famous hits.

    BTS are set to return next year after going on hiatus in 2022 due to mandatory military service laws in South Korea.

  • Novel Tuberculosis Shots May Benefit HIV-Positive Population

    Novel Tuberculosis Shots May Benefit HIV-Positive Population

    TOPLINE:

    A two-dose regimen of the M72/AS01E-4, a recombinant fusion protein tuberculosis vaccine candidate, demonstrated acceptable safety and immunogenicity in virally suppressed, antiretroviral therapy (ART)-treated adolescents and adults living with HIV, showing strong antibody and CD4 T-cell responses. 

    METHODOLOGY:

    • Researchers conducted a randomized, phase 2 trial in South Africa to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of the investigational M72/AS01E-4 tuberculosis vaccine, derived from two Mycobacterium tuberculosis antigens (Mtb32A and Mtb39A) and AS01E-4 adjuvant, in people living with HIV.
    • Overall, 401 participants — each on ART for ≥ 3 months with HIV viral loads < 200 copies per mL and CD4 T-cell count ≥ 200 cells per µL — were randomly assigned to receive either the M72/AS01 vaccine (n = 201; mean age, 29.4 years; 87% women) or placebo (n = 200; mean age, 29.6 years; 88% women), on days 1 and 29.
    • Primary endpoints were the vaccine’s reactogenicity and safety, assessed via solicited adverse events (AEs) within 7 days, unsolicited AEs within 28 days, and serious AEs throughout the trial.
    • Immunogenicity was evaluated by measuring M72-specific immunoglobulin G antibody concentrations on days 1, 29, 57, 210, and 390, as well as M72-specific CD4 and CD8 T-cell responses.

    TAKEAWAY:

    • Vaccine-related AEs occurred more frequently in the vaccine group (12%) than in the placebo group (6%), primarily due to a higher rate of injection-site reactions in the vaccine group (8% vs 1%). Two severe unsolicited AEs related to the vaccine were reported — a case each of dizziness and injection-site erythema, but no participant discontinued the trial or died due to AEs.
    • Nine serious AEs occurred — four in the vaccine group (COVID-19, tibia fracture, spontaneous abortion, or psychotic disorder) and five in the placebo group (COVID-19, anal abscess, spontaneous abortion, substance-induced psychotic disorder, or physical assault); none was related to the vaccine.
    • In the vaccine group, the geometric mean concentration of antibodies against M72 increased from the baseline level to 13.28 EU/mL by day 29, peaked at 479.70 EU/mL by day 57, and then declined to 32.43 EU/mL by day 390 — yet remained above prevaccination levels. No such increase was observed in the placebo group.
    • The M72-specific CD4 T cells expressing interferon gamma or interleukin-2 was significantly higher in the vaccine group than in the placebo group at both day 57 and day 390 (P < .0001).

    IN PRACTICE:

    “In conclusion, a two-dose regimen of M72/AS01E-4 vaccine, administered 1 month apart, was well-tolerated, with an acceptable safety profile, and was immunogenic in virally suppressed, ART-treated people living with HIV aged 16-35 years,” the authors wrote.

    SOURCE:

    The study was led by Alemnew F. Dagnew, MD, Gates Medical Research Institute, Cambridge, Massachusetts. It was published online on July 1, 2025, in The Lancet HIV.

    LIMITATIONS:

    The trial population was restricted to people living with HIV who achieved viral suppression through ART, potentially limiting the generalizability of the results to those not on ART, not adhering to treatment, or newly diagnosed with HIV. Additionally, most participants were women, which may have affected overall trial outcomes given the higher risk for tuberculosis among men.

    DISCLOSURES:

    The study was funded by the Gates Foundation and the Wellcome Trust. Several authors were employees of the Gates Medical Research Institute during the trial. Some authors also received financial aid from other organizations, including Wellcome, UK Research and Innovation, Cancer Research UK, and TB Alliance. 

    This article was created using several editorial tools, including AI, as part of the process. Human editors reviewed this content before publication.

  • Ricci hails ‘impressive’ Câmara following ‘special’ title triumph in Budapest

    Ricci hails ‘impressive’ Câmara following ‘special’ title triumph in Budapest

    TRIDENT Team Manager Giacomo Ricci is full of praise for Rafael Câmara, after he claimed the 2025 Formula 3 title with a dominant win from pole in the Budapest Feature Race.

    The Brazilian sealed the Championship with a round to go, holding off Campos Racing’s Mari Boya in Qualifying and across all 23 laps of racing on Sunday.

    Câmara’s Feature Race victory made him the third consecutive TRIDENT driver to win the title, and Ricci is more than delighted with the achievement.

    READ MORE: Rafael Câmara’s Budapest Championship Debrief

    “It’s special for us, for the team, winning the title with one round left, with a new car, it’s amazing feeling,” said Ricci.

    “In my opinion, he was the quickest this year. He was on top in every condition. The downside on our side, especially on the first part of the season, we did not score points in the Sprint Race.

    “That’s why the guys that were usually qualifying P12, P13, P9, they were scoring points over us, so the gap was staying quite close. But the last two rounds, being able to score in both, opened up the gap a bit more.

    Câmara became the third consecutive driver from TRIDENT to win the F3 title

    “Today he did an exceptional job, he was under pressure from Boya, especially in the first part of the race. Speaking with him, he was keeping things under control and keeping the tyres alive, but Boya was extremely close and the DRS was available.

    “But once he opened the gap, he managed things perfectly on the restarts. He was always on it, he did not make a mistake and in the last phase of the race he was managing and keeping the tyres alive.”

    Câmara’s season was not without its challenges, as while his statistics read five Pole Positions and four Feature Race victories, he had a couple of rounds where he struggled.

    The Scuderia Ferrari Driver Academy member scored just seven points across the Monte Carlo and Silverstone weekends, but for Ricci those were caused by things outside of Câmara’s control.

    “In my opinion, his form never went down,” said Ricci. “It was simply sometimes small things can make a difference. The track time is limited, finding traffic in qualifying, people are backing off in front of you even if you organise the strategy perfectly.

    Câmara was forced to hold off Boya in Qualifying and also in the Feature Race

    “But for me here and Spa we were back on top with him. His overall talent is impressive. I remember in Melbourne, he didn’t know the track, of course he did the simulator, but he didn’t know the track and from the second push lap, P1 and then he did pole position in Qualifying.

    “It’s like for him, sometimes things come quite easy.”

    Câmara’s run to Pole Position on Friday in Budapest was one of those things. The 20-year-old had his first time deleted for exceeding track limits, before going up to fifth on his next lap.

    But as he prepared to set off for his final attempts of the day, while battling for track position, he wound up in the pitlane.

    This forced TRIDENT to switch their plans around to give a chance to go for pole, and he did just that, rounding the track at the chequered flag to complete a 1:32.510, beating Boya by just 0.008s.

    Câmara won the title with one round to go in Monza

    “Of course, we were ready to do the classic out and push, but then unfortunately he had been pushed inside the pitlane just before starting the push lap,” recalled Ricci.

    “At the moment he opened the radio and said, ‘I am coming to the pitlane’ we were quite surprised. Then we decided quickly to go to Plan C, to align him with the strategy being used by Campos.

    FEATURE RACE: Câmara seals 2025 title with commanding Budapest win

    “It was quite risky because statistically towards the end of Qualifying, it’s easier to find a Red Flag or other problems. With like four warmup laps before starting a push lap being able to deliver a fantastic lap, he was on pole position.

    “It was very tight because Boya was extremely close but again, he collected the two points and it was impressive.”

  • CrowdStrike Secures AI Agents Across the SaaS Stack

    CrowdStrike Secures AI Agents Across the SaaS Stack

    Falcon Shield adds visibility and governance to OpenAI GPT-based agents – including those built with ChatGPT Enterprise and OpenAI Codex – expanding support for 175+ SaaS applications and the AI agent identities reshaping the modern attack surface

    AUSTIN, Texas and Black Hat USA 2025, Las Vegas – August 5, 2025 – CrowdStrike (NASDAQ: CRWD) today announced a new integration with the OpenAI ChatGPT Enterprise Compliance API, designed to add visibility and governance for AI agents that are redefining how work gets done. CrowdStrike Falcon® Shield now discovers GPTs and Codex agents created in OpenAI’s ChatGPT Enterprise, expanding support for more than 175 SaaS applications. As cybersecurity’s platform innovator for the AI era, CrowdStrike helps organizations strengthen governance of AI agent identities and the human identities behind them.

    As organizations embrace agentic AI to drive automation at scale, an explosion of agents is transforming SaaS environments. Organizations can have limited visibility into what the agents are doing, what systems and data they can access, or who created them. These autonomous agents have non-human identities with persistent privileges and can be hijacked when a human identity is compromised – enabling adversaries to exfiltrate data, manipulate systems, or move laterally across critical business applications. By expanding the number of identities, accelerating access, and increasing the blast radius of a single compromise, these agents are redefining the attack surface. 

    Falcon Shield’s integration with ChatGPT Enterprise adds governance for this new layer of AI-driven automation in the SaaS stack – mapping each agent to its human creator, surfacing risky behavior, and helping to enforce policy in real time. Combined with Falcon® Identity Protection, CrowdStrike helps deliver unified visibility and protection across every human and non-human identity – helping organizations strengthen the oversight of AI agents.

    “AI agents are emerging as superhuman identities, with the ability to access systems, trigger workflows, and operate at machine speed,” said Elia Zaitsev, chief technology officer, CrowdStrike. “As these agents multiply across SaaS environments, they’re reshaping the enterprise attack surface, and are only as secure as the human identities behind them. Falcon Shield and Falcon Identity Protection help secure this new layer of identity to prevent exploitation.”

    Falcon Shield secures AI agents across the SaaS stack by:

    • Discovering AI Agents Across SaaS: Surfaces GPTs, Codex agents, and other embedded AI tools across platforms like ChatGPT Enterprise, Microsoft 365, Snowflake, and Salesforce – giving security teams added visibility.
    • Mapping Agents to Human Creators: Links agents to their human owner to support accountability, trace access, and govern privileges with context – while Falcon Identity Protection helps secure the human identities behind them.
    • Detecting Risky Behavior: Flags overprivileged agents, GPTs with sensitive action capabilities, and unusual activity by analyzing identity, application, and data context.
    • Containing Threats Automatically: Uses Falcon® Fusion, CrowdStrike’s no-code SOAR engine, to automate actions like blocking risky access, disabling compromised agents, and triggering automated response workflows to mitigate issues quickly.
    • Unifying AI Agent Protection, Powered by the Falcon Platform: Combines Falcon Shield, Falcon Identity Protection, and Falcon® Cloud Security to provide end-to-end visibility and control over AI agent activity – from the human who created it to the cloud systems it can access.

  • German soccer club cancels signing of Israeli striker amid fan backlash over Gaza

    German soccer club cancels signing of Israeli striker amid fan backlash over Gaza

    German second-division soccer club Fortuna Düsseldorf on Tuesday canceled its planned signing of Israeli national team striker Shon Weissman, citing public backlash from supporters who condemned the player’s political views as extreme.

    Weissman, 29, had reportedly finalized terms with the club and passed a medical exam earlier this week, but was unexpectedly instructed not to report to Tuesday morning training. The club’s management, which had held weeks of negotiations with the player, convened an emergency meeting and informed his representatives that the deal was being called off.

    “We conducted a thorough review of the player, but ultimately decided not to sign him,” the club said in an official statement.

    The move follows protests from sections of the fanbase who opposed Weissman’s arrival, citing comments he made after Hamas’ October 7 attack on Israel. At the time, Weissman had posted messages interpreted as calling for the destruction of Gaza, remarks that drew criticism during his stint in Spain’s La Liga and resurfaced amid the recent transfer speculation.

    Late Monday night, amid a flood of tagged posts on the club’s X (formerly Twitter) account, the club’s social media manager appeared to address the uproar, posting: “What is going on here? I’m getting messages nonstop after work. Judging people you don’t know based on their Wikipedia page? That’s not in line with our values.”

    According to reports in German outlet Bild, Weissman had made a strong impression on club officials and had been in talks with Fortuna Düsseldorf for several weeks. The club was aware of the controversial posts, since deleted, before entering negotiations. Nevertheless, officials ultimately reversed course in response to the intensifying public pressure.
