A chocolate heist is captivating the internet this week after a transport truck carrying 12 tons of KitKat products was reportedly stolen.

The KitKat bandits intercepted the delivery vehicle mid-route, carrying 413,793 units of a "new" KitKat product from Central Italy to Poland, CBS reports.

Parent company Nestlé told CBS News that the truck is still unaccounted for, and warned that the loss could "threaten" supply chains across Europe. In a follow-up statement on KitKat brand social media accounts, however, it was clarified that there is no threat to supply or public safety.

The internet, of course, is having a field day.

"We've always encouraged people to have a break with KitKat, but it seems thieves have taken the message too literally and made a break with more than 12 tons of our chocolate," a Nestle spokesperson told AFP.

Looking at my calendar, I can't help but think there may be Soderbergh-esque third act reveal in this viral tale. Surely, Nestle hasn't roped us into a week-long April Fools' Day joke, all with the plan of releasing a new flavor of KitKat after continued global boycotts of Nestlé products?

Lossless Scaling is a fantastic tool that can help when your GPU can't handle certain workloads. It also helps out in games that don't support DLSS, FSR, or XeSS. Most importantly, it's cheap, and it works with any graphics card. But despite all those positives, it's not quite a full-on replacement for vendor-specific software, and it can run into various problems.

Most of the time, it’s simple: the higher the number on the tailgate, the bigger the SUV. But with Infiniti’s revised and redesigned lineup for 2026 and 2027, that logic has a bit of a curveball. If you’re looking at the 2026 QX60 and the 2027 QX65, you’re looking at mechanical twins. They share the same 268-horsepower VC-Turbo engine, the same nine-speed automatic transmission, and the same 6,000-lb. max towing capacity.

Bluesky has created another app, Attie, that uses AI to build custom feeds.

The Bluesky team announced Attie at the Atmosphere conference over the weekend, TechCrunch reported. The conference is about the AT protocol, which is the underlying protocol Bluesky is built on, according to TechCrunch, and the conference attendees will be the initial beta testers.

Attie already has a Bluesky account, naturally, where it posted on Saturday that it's currently in an invite-only closed beta (much like how Bluesky was when it launched).

1/ Today, we’re excited to introduce Attie, currently as an invite-only closed beta. Attie is the first agentic social app on atproto. It’s something completely new—an experiment in making building on the protocol more accessible.

— Attie (@attie.ai) March 28, 2026 at 6:48 PM

"Attie is the first agentic social app on atproto [the AT protocol]," the post reads. "It's something completely new — an experiment in making building on the protocol more accessible."

The Attie presentation comes shortly after Bluesky CEO Jay Graber announced she's stepping down from her position. Graber will now be chief innovation officer, and she was part of the Attie announcement along with CTO Paul Frazee, TechCrunch reported.

Graber also posted a blog about Attie on Saturday, in which she wrote, "The proliferation of low-quality AI-generated content is making public social networks noisier and less trustworthy at a time when we need accurate information more than ever," yet major platforms aren't trying to fix the problem.

Graber continued that she and the Bluesky team believe AI should "serve people, not platforms," and that an open protocol "puts this power directly in users' hands." It's increasingly possible to personalize software without being able to code, she wrote, thanks to agentic coding tools.

"You can use it to build your own feeds, create software that works the way you want it to, and find signal in the noise," she wrote.

Attie users will apparently be able to describe what posts they want to see, and the coding agent will build the feed they describe. The experience will be "more like having a conversation than configuring software," according to Graber.

On the Attie website, examples of prompts include "poetry, long-form fiction craft, and writing process from people I follow" and "Show me electronic music and experimental sound from people in my network."

Those without an invite code can sign up for Attie's waitlist on the website.

For decades, if you wanted to do heavy data lifting in Excel, your options were nested formulas, VBA macros, or a trip into the Power Query Editor. But with Python now accessible directly from Excel cells, there's a fourth way. It lets you perform complex data cleaning, sentiment analysis, and more—all without leaving the formula bar.

There's a whole sea of cool smart home gadgets you can buy, but for me, one of the most essential is a thermometer and hygrometer combo (also known as a thermo-hygrometer). It's a simple device that tracks temperature and humidity in my room. Despite its simplicity, this cheap little gadget has become a mainstay on my desk—and here's why.

The European Commission – the same regulatory body that slaps big fines on tech heavyweights like Apple and Meta and issues AI safety guidelines – was hacked in March, with attackers stealing a ton of data.

In a blog post detailing the attack, the EC said it had discovered a cyber attack on its Europa.eu platform on March 24. "Immediate steps" were taken to contain the attack, which is why the Europa websites remained operational. Internal systems of the EC were not affected by the cyberattack, and the EC says it would continue to "continue to monitor the situation and take all necessary measures to ensure the security of its internal systems and data."

The EC also said that data has been taken from its Europa websites, without going into further detail.

However, BleepingComputer claims the breach affected at least one of the EC's Amazon Web Services (AWS) accounts, with hackers telling the outlet they got away with over 350GB of data, including "multiple databases." The hackers also said they will not attempt to extort the EC for the stolen data but will leak it online "at a later date."

The Europa.eu sites are a comprehensive homepage for the European Union, featuring news as well as information on the EU's laws, policies, and institutions. It's unclear whether any personal information was stolen in the breach.

This is the second cyberattack the European Commission has disclosed this year. In January, the EC said hackers breached its central infrastructure for managing mobile devices, acquiring staff names and some of their mobile phone numbers.

It seems like every new Linux user goes through a phase of "distro-hopping," or constantly switching Linux distros. If you've gotten the urge to install a new Linux distro, here are the reasons you might want to stop and think for a bit.

For a very long time, black was the coolest smartphone color you could pick. It felt sleek and premium, almost like a more refined version of the neutral gray tones that Apple helped popularize. But now that it's been done to death, black just no longer stands out the way it used to. That's exactly why, when I was buying my latest phone, I went out of my way to avoid a black model.

Amazon’s Big Spring Sale is still going strong but the clock is very much ticking, with the sale set to end after March 31. We’re continuing to see some great price drops across multiple categories, including $300 price cuts on MacBooks and $400 off Apple Watches. Hey, what's not to like?

Don't forget: Apple recently released a new generation of Apple AirTags, so we don't know how much longer these trackers will be available, especially at this record-low price. We've already seen M4 MacBook Airs, iPad Airs, and AirPods Max headphones go out of stock, and AirTags could be next.

Each Play Booster includes at least one Traditional Foil card and one to four cards of Rare rarity or higher, with the possibility of borderless alternate art in the mix as well.

If you’re an Avatar fan who’s new to MTG, you can also still buy the Magic: The Gathering Avatar The Last Airbender Beginner Box for under $24. To save more on packs from other expansions, the Magic: The Gathering Lorwyn Eclipsed Play Booster Box is still only $119 in Amazon’s Big Spring Sale.

If you're not looking to drop a ton of cash on new earbuds, one of our favorite deals is on the AirPods 4 without Active Noise Cancellation. These AirPods have dropped to just $114.95 at Amazon, saving you $14.05 on list price. We think these are the best budget earbuds for Apple users. We have to point out, however, that these AirPods were at an even lower price earlier in the sale, so maybe grab them in case they bump all the way back up to full price.

If you had your eye on the AirPods 4 with ANC, the good news is those are also on sale right now. They are currently marked down to just $155.99 at Amazon, or roughly $23 off their original list price of $179. So no matter which option you choose, you can save some cash right now.

The AirPods Pro 3 are some of our favorite earbuds for Apple users, earning spots on both our lists of the best headphones and best earbuds. Our review had high praise for them, with writer Adam Doud calling them, "a remarkable upgrade in functionality over their predecessors, with better battery life and ANC, as well as a new heart rate sensor."

Boasting great sound quality and noise-cancelling features, alongside a hefty battery life that can last up to eight hours (with ANC) on a single charge, these AirPods are a nice upgrade indeed. Ahead of Amazon's Big Spring Sale, they're marked down to $199.

Premium noise-canceling headphones from brands like Sony and Bose are much better value, but AirPods Max are a popular pick nonetheless. (If nothing else, they're super stylish.) Apple announced the AirPods Max 2 with better ANC and smart features earlier this month, and now the first-gen models with USB-C charging are on sale on Amazon for $449.99. That's about $100 off their regular retail price of $549. But it's just the purple colorway available at this price for now — unless you're happy to wait for lengthy delivery times on other color variants.

Note we've seen these go in and out of stock at Amazon during the Big Spring Sale, so check Target and Walmart if you're not having luck with Amazon.

Don't sleep on Amazon's Big Spring Sale. The sale event will soon wrap up, with price drops set to end after March 31.

For Apple users, these sale events are always super exciting — it's a rare chance to snag a device for significantly less. But time is ticking if you want to take advantage. There are still discounts on everything from MacBooks to AirPods. And if you've been hoping to get your hands on a brand-new smartwatch but refuse to pay full price, several Apple Watch models are still on sale, with savings of up to $300 on offer.

While Apple's Series 11 and SE 3 are getting attention for being the newest models, a few last-generation models deserve a spotlight during this Big Spring Sale. This is because you can pick up the Apple Watch SE 2 for just $189 (save $60), or the Apple Watch Ultra 2 for $499 (save $300). If you don't mind an older model, they might be the way to go.

We're keeping this page updated with all the live deals that drop in the sale. The following models are the best Apple Watch deals you can shop today (and they're all still in stock). However, we're seeing low stock alerts on a few models, so it's best to hop on these soon.

So far, Amazon has the best prices, but we're also checking Best Buy, Target, and Walmart in case we see price drops that rival the current best deals on the market. Basically, we've got you covered for the best Apple Watch deals during this final stretch of the Big Spring Sale.

A $100 discount on the 42mm GPS Apple Watch Series 11 drops it to a record-low price, making it the perfect time to grab what our Tech Editor, Timothy Beck Werth, calls the "Best Apple Upgrade." Mashable's Stan Schroeder agrees, noting the battery life alone is worth the jump. "Even if you already have a Series 10, which has nearly all the same features, the new Apple Watch Series 11 doesn’t require you to charge it mid-day in order to keep it going through the night," he writes.

If you just want a reliable smartwatch without paying for features you won't use, the Apple Watch SE 3 is the way to go.
