Device-driver release time!
Version 2.2.0 introduces the LSP support I've been teasing for a while. This is coupled with a vscode extension. But the LSP should work anywhere you can hook it up to.
Lots of internal changes too, probably the biggest MIR change since 1.0.
“USB device not recognized” in Windows usually is not a dead drive.
Fix order that wastes the least time:
→ different port, no hub, different cable
→ Restart, not shut down (Fast Startup can carry a bad USB state over)
→ uninstall the Unknown USB Device in Device Manager, then replug
→ disable USB selective suspend

Bluetooth devices show their connection state and battery level. You can connect a paired device or turn Bluetooth on and off.
Lock, suspend, hibernate, log out, reboot or shut down from the same box. A process picker lists your own processes with their memory use, and can ask them to stop or kill them.
Anything destructive asks you to press twice.

I have a device that did receive a software update a month or two after DST Root CA X3 expired and some of its programs broke.
Here's hoping they will rise from the crypt and patch this one too (even though it doesn't actively break anything).

Apple's new foldable device, the iPhone Duo, is scheduled for release on October 23 with a starting price of $2,000.
Supply chain constraints have severely limited production volume, with Apple store employees instructed to discourage walk-in customers on launch day.
Pre-orders opened on October 16, and current delivery estimates on Apple's website stretch into late January.

Inside Wazza: A Newly Observed Device Code Phishing Kit Targeting Microsoft 365 Accounts
A newly observed multi-stage phishing kit named Wazza has been actively targeting Microsoft 365 accounts since early July 2026. The campaign delivers phishing emails from compromised accounts containing PDF lures with business themes like invoices and contracts. These PDFs redirect victims through a complex infrastructure leveraging Google Sites, CloudFlare Workers, and various domains. Wazza features dynamic capabilities including 19 different phishing themes impersonating services like Adobe, DocuSign, and OneDrive, along with six corporate decoy websites. The kit employs sophisticated browser interrogation, anti-automation checks, and client-side protection mechanisms. The final stage abuses Microsoft OAuth device authorization, displaying a verification code and instructing victims to complete authentication on a separate page. Throughout the process, a backend session continuously monitors the authentication attempt, ultimately granting attackers access to victim accounts and cloud resources.

Ecuadorian Inventor Wins German Award for a Device That Could Bring Clean Water and Electricity to Farms
Ecuador’s Ilumínate invention wins a German social impact award as its creator seeks support to bring the technology to farms.Dear Cherubs, what if one small machine could help a rural farmer generate electricity and reuse water without relying entirely on conventional power supplies? An Ecuadorian inventor named Fabricio Rodríguez is working to make that idea a reality, and his project, Ilumínate, has earned international recognition in Germany.
According to Ecuadorian newspaper El Universo, Rodríguez received the 2026 iF Social Impact Prize, winning €2,000 after his project was selected from 1,500 applications representing more than 120 countries. The recognition is a welcome boost for an inventor who has been funding much of his own work while earning a living as a construction worker.
Not bad for someone developing technology on a tight budget. Some people buy the latest gadgets; others build machines that could help communities access essential resources.
A SMALL MACHINE WITH TWO BIG AMBITIONS
Ilumínate is designed to generate electricity while treating water. According to its official profile on the iF Design website, the system uses a thermodynamic process and a custom-built generator powered by corn bioethanol.
The project is intended for communities where reliable electricity and safe water can be difficult to access. The iF Design profile highlights the challenge in rural Ecuador, describing the technology as a potential way to improve local energy and water independence.
The prototype has reportedly reached an electrical output of 120 volts, although its development and testing are still ongoing. Its water-treatment system combines four filtration stages with ultraviolet lamps intended to help eliminate harmful microorganisms.
There is an important distinction here: water that looks clear is not necessarily safe to drink. The inventor is pursuing laboratory validation of the system’s ability to produce potable water, so the machine should not yet be treated as a certified source of drinking water.
That testing is crucial. An invention can be promising, clever and award-winning without being ready for everyday use. Science, inconveniently for anyone hoping to skip the paperwork, still requires evidence.
FROM WORKSHOP TO FARM
Rodríguez now wants to move Ilumínate beyond the prototype stage and into agricultural settings, where the technology could potentially solve more than one problem at a time.
As reported by El Universo, his plans involve using farm waste, including pruning residues and animal waste, as potential energy resources. The project also aims to treat and reuse greywater from workers’ homes for agricultural irrigation.
The idea is to reduce the need for separate equipment to generate electricity and treat water. For smaller farms, combining those functions could eventually offer practical advantages, particularly in places affected by unreliable utilities or water shortages.
Rodríguez plans to test the system on a farm covering more than 25 hectares in Pedro Carbo, Ecuador. That pilot will be an important step in determining whether the technology can operate reliably outside the development workshop.
A PRIZE IS A START, NOT THE FINISH LINE
The €2,000 award provides recognition and some financial support, but turning a working prototype into a dependable product requires further investment, testing and refinement.
Rodríguez is seeking additional support to continue development and move towards real-world trials. His ambitions extend beyond selling a machine: he has also spoken about directing future profits towards educational resources for disadvantaged schools.
The concept is compelling because it addresses several connected challenges at once: access to electricity, water reuse and agricultural waste management. But its long-term impact will depend on whether testing confirms its performance, safety, affordability and suitability for local conditions.
For now, Ilumínate remains a developing technology rather than a ready-made solution. Still, the project demonstrates why supporting practical innovation matters. Sometimes progress begins not in a giant laboratory, but with someone determined to make limited resources go a little further.
And if Rodríguez can turn that determination into a reliable machine for working farms, the award from Germany may prove to be just the beginning.
