Do you need a basic laptop for your daily tasks? Laptop deals can’t get any more affordable than Walmart’s offer for the HP Stream 14, which is down to just $169 from its original price of $229 following a $60 discount. The laptop, which comes with one free year of Office 365 to help your productivity, probably won’t stay this cheap for long, so if you’re interested in this bargain, it’s highly recommended that you proceed with the transaction as soon as possible. If you keep delaying, you’re going to miss out on the savings.

Why you should buy the HP Stream 14

The specifications of the HP Stream 14 are a far cry from the components of the best laptops, as it’s only equipped with the Intel Celeron N4020 processor and 4GB of RAM. It won’t be able to handle demanding processes like editing videos and multitasking between several apps, but browsing the internet and typing documents won’t be a problem for the HP Stream 14. The laptop’s display is also relatively small at just 14 inches, but it’s a touchscreen for your convenience, and it keeps the device portable so it will be easy to bring with you during your commute to work or school.

Despite its shortcomings, the HP Stream 14 may give your productivity a boost if you’ve been using Microsoft’s Windows for years. The laptop ships with Windows 11 in S Mode pre-loaded in its 64GB eMMC, which will let you stay in familiar territory when using the device. It also comes with one free year of Office 365, which will give you access to tried-and-tested apps like Microsoft Word and Microsoft PowerPoint.

The HP Stream 14 is far from being the fastest and most feature-packed laptop, but if it’s enough for your daily needs, then you wouldn’t want to lose this chance at getting the device for only $169 from Walmart. The $60 in savings on its sticker price of $229 may not last long though, so there’s no time to waste if you’re interested in taking advantage of the bargain. Add the HP Stream 14 to your cart and push through with the purchase immediately, because once this offer ends, we’re not sure when it will become available again.

The Mac Pro nearly received an M3 Extreme chip twice as powerful as M3 Ultra
High production costs likely killed Apple’s M3 Extreme plans
Apple's Mac Pro on a table at a press event.

Apple discontinued the Mac Pro earlier this year, ending a 20-year run for a computer that once represented the very best of the company’s desktop lineup. However, Apple reportedly had much bigger plans for the machine before ultimately replacing it with the Mac Studio.

According to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, Apple developed an M3 Extreme chip that could have offered twice as many CPU and GPU cores as the M3 Ultra. The processor was intended to sit above the Ultra tier and could have finally given the Mac Pro the performance advantage it badly needed. Apple eventually abandoned the chip due to concerns over production costs and limited demand for such an expensive machine.

Hidden prompts can secretly rewrite an AI’s memory, and researchers say that’s a serious problem
Researchers discover AI attack that rewrites an assistant's long-term memory
Chatbot on a smartphone.

Large language models are getting better at remembering us. Whether it's your preferred writing style, recurring tasks, shopping habits or project deadlines, AI assistants are increasingly storing long-term memories to make future conversations feel more personal and useful. But according to new research, that same feature could become one of AI's biggest security vulnerabilities.

Researchers from New Mexico State University have demonstrated a new attack called GhostWriter, capable of secretly planting false memories inside AI agents. Rather than stealing information outright, the attack manipulates what an AI remembers, potentially causing it to make dangerous decisions long after the original attack has taken place.

This experiment shows how easy it is to poison an open-weight AI model for under $100
This research raises new doubts about trusting open weight AI models.
Computer, Electronics, Laptop

Open-weight AI models have been having a moment lately. Just this month, Moonshot's massive Kimi K3 model landed close behind Claude Fable 5 and GPT 5.6 Sol in several benchmarks, all while remaining fully open-weight and downloadable by anyone.

However, Katie Paxton-Fear, a cybersecurity lecturer at Manchester Metropolitan University and staff security advocate at Semgrep, managed to poison an open-weight model and proved how easily that openness can be turned against you (via The Register).
