Google Chrome gets a new logo after eight years

The main Chrome logo also looks the same on all systems. On ChromeOS, the logo will look more colorful to complement other system icons, while on macOS, the logo will have a small shadow to make it appear as if it “pops” from the dock. Meanwhile, Windows 10 and 11 versions have more dramatic gradients to suit the style of other Windows icons.

According to The Verge, you can see the new icon if you use Chrome Canary, the developer version of Chrome, but it will start rolling out to everyone else in the next few months.

There are also some new icons for the beta and developer Chrome logos, the most notable change being the blueprint-style icon for beta apps on iOS.

From 2008 to the present, Chrome’s logo has gradually become simpler. What started out as a shiny 3D logo is now condensed into a 2D symbol.

 

NASA shares stunning images created by combining data from Hubble Space Telescope and Chandra X-ray Observatory

NASA shared a set of three images from the universe on social media, highlighting the collaboration between its two observatories. This collaboration shows what kind of images can be produced when you look at the same object in two wavelengths of light. NASA said the images were created by combining data from the Hubble Space Telescope, space and the ground-based Chandra X-ray Observatory. The results are absolutely stunning. “By combining data from telescopes that can detect different types of light, we can comprehensively study cosmic phenomena,” the agency said.

It explains how to create an image by combining two separate datasets. NASA says the universe emits light and energy in many forms, and the observational capabilities of Chandra X-rays allow them to explore ultra-hot and energetic processes throughout the universe.

The first image in the Instagram post is of R Aquarii. In fact, it’s a pair of steadily burning white dwarfs and a variable-height red giant orbiting each other. The white dwarf pulls the red giant’s material to its surface. When enough material accumulates, it triggers an explosion. Data from Hubble is shown in red and blue in this image, while data from Chandra X-rays is shown in purple.

The second image depicts the Guitar Nebula and the X-ray stream (pink) ejected from the pulsar, almost perpendicular to the nebula. The Guitar Nebula is named for its shape in light (blue, or looking like a hollow guitar).

The third is a galaxy that merged after a spiral galaxy collided with a smaller galaxy. This gravitational interaction can generate waves of star formation. Chandra’s X-ray data (purple) combined with optical images from the Hubble Space Telescope (red, green and blue).

 

North Korea steals funds to fund weapons program through cyber-attack on cryptocurrency exchanges: UN report

North Korea has continued to develop its nuclear and ballistic missile programs over the past year, and cyberattacks on cryptocurrency exchanges appear to have become a significant source of revenue for the country, citing excerpts from a UN report by cybersecurity professionals. Investigators found that from 2020 to mid-2021, cyberattacks stole digital assets worth more than $50 million (approximately Rs 373.5 crore) from at least three cryp

tocurrency exchanges in North America, Europe and Asia.

The report was presented to the UN Security Council North Korea sanctions committee last week by the independent sanctions monitor, but was reviewed by Reuters. The classified report said North Korea’s test and demonstration of new short- and possibly medium-range missiles in January had “significantly accelerated”, “combining ballistic and guidance technologies, and using both solid and liquid propellants” — all of which It is mainly from cyber attacks, of which cryptocurrency exchanges are also a key target.

The report also refers to estimates provided by blockchain analytics firm Chainalysis in its latest crypto crime report, which states that North Korea has launched at least seven attacks on cryptocurrency platforms in 2021, extorting nearly $400 million worth ( approximately 29.9 billion rupees) of digital assets.

“These attacks have primarily targeted investment firms and centralized exchanges,” the firm explained in an excerpt from its 2022 Crypto Crime Report. Chainalysis added that the hackers “used phishing lures, code vulnerabilities, malware and advanced social engineering” to move funds from the company’s hot wallet to addresses controlled by the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK), detailing that South Korea Having obtained custody of the funds, they began a careful money-laundering process to cover up and cash out. “

“Only 20% of the stolen funds were in bitcoin…and for the first time ever, ether accounted for the majority of the stolen funds at 58%,” Chainalysis noted.

“More than 65% of North Korea’s stolen funds this year were laundered through mixers [2021], up from 42% in 2020 and 21% in 2019, suggesting that these threat actors are taking a more cautious approach each year,” the company concluded.
