ExectOS is a preemptive, reentrant multitasking operating system that implements the XT architecture which derives from NT™ architecture. Is this The Year of ExectOS?

The NT architecture is unmitigated bullshit.
It itself was sort of inspired by VAX/VMS if memory serves, and to that degree that it is this is 1970s architecture.
Look, I dev windows. There's a lot to like about it, but for god sake, don't keep it going.
Microkernels are where its at. A message passing core is fundamental to making fully connectible operating systems. Something like MachOS or QNX.
Why not refine an OS around POSIX? What the hell is so bad about POSIX? Apple stuff does fine with it.
It's old, but it has withstood the test of time across far more platforms than NT ever has.
Maybe I'm just crotchety, but NT like x86 needs to die, not have its shelf life extended.

The Biden administration on Thursday will announce plans to bar the sale of antivirus software made by Russia's Kaspersky Labs in the United States, a person familiar with the matter said, citing the firm's large U.S. customers including critical infrastructure providers and state and local governments.

The concern is valid given how paranoid Russia's government has become. The US DoD banned Kaspersky a few years ago from their systems and now it appears the ban will go government wide.

Really surprised this took so long.

Me too. Although it may have been a case of building the case against Kaspersky so when they take it to court the US Government has the documentation showing them to be under duress from Russian intelligence services.

Two veteran astronauts will extend their stay on the International Space Station as teams on the ground work to better understand issues with the Boeing-built spacecraft that carried them to orbit. What has trouble going up, has trouble coming down

I don't think science fiction authors could have written a more perfect "end of world" scenario that leaves astronauts stranded. On the other hand, it does sound like a possible start to Rebecca Kelly's "The Eta Chronicles" (The Station and The Surface).

If you are not using random, computer-generated passwords, or one of the best password generators, chances are your logins can be cracked within an hour, research has warned. So don't bother using a hard one - they'll never expect you to use an easy one!

Other bad news.
They were able to compile a list of "top passwords" in the first place, which means someone is sharing or storing them clear text or at least reversible.
Whoops.

Well even then, if they were one way encrypted the only ones they should be able to find are the easy to brute ones, like snoopy1.

So instead of passwords, let's all use 4-digit PINs to access our bank accounts. Yep, the stupidity never ceases.

The vulnerability could let hackers gain access to your PC on public Wi-Fi networks. WiFi? More like WiFuuuuuuuuu
It does read like they'd have to be on the same router (which would be the case in a coffee shop etc. anyway)
According to the CVSS metric, the attack vector is adjacent (AV:A). What does that mean for this vulnerability?
Exploiting this vulnerability requires an attacker to be within proximity of the target system to send and receive radio transmissions.

A researcher has found a bug that allows anyone to impersonate Microsoft corporate email accounts, making phishing attempts look credible and more likely to trick their targets. Good thing they never email anyone
"The bug, according to Kokorin, only works when sending the email to Outlook accounts." <-- Oh, phew. Good thing no one uses those.
/sigh... Microsoft...

Did something change? I was of the impression you could forge email headers all you wanted so long as you controlled the SMTP sending the mail?
I've sent prank mail from Gates and such. From .NET it was as simple as changing the FROM: to whatever you want.
