PepsiCo abruptly shuttered a southwest side facility Monday, leaving dozens of employees out of work in a move their union alleged was illegal. In a statement, Teamsters Local 727 secretary-treasurer John Coli Jr. called the closure of the 650 W. 51st Street plant “despicable” and said the union would take “any and all legal action we can to do right for our members.” The Teamsters allege the sudden closure violates the workers’ collective bargaining agreement with PepsiCo as well as the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act, which requires 60 days’ advance notice of certain mass layoffs and plant closures. PepsiCo said in a statement that its plans to close the facility “meet applicable legal requirements.” In a notice to the union Monday it said was “pursuant to any possible obligations” under the WARN Act, PepsiCo said it would continue to pay union employees at the facility through December 28. In a statement to the Tribune, the company said it had filed a WARN notice and that employees would “be paid and continue to receive benefits as set forth in the collective bargaining agreement for 60 days.” Representatives for the state’s labor department and its Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity said they had not received a WARN notice from PepsiCo as of Monday afternoon. The company said in its notice to the union that 79 Teamsters were impacted.

The web browser platform Opera says it will continue supporting Manifest V2 extensions including the popular uBlock Origin after Google Chrome drops support. The abandonment by Google Chrome comes as part of the company’s plan to phase out Manifest V2 extensions as they seemingly want to push software developers to adopt the Manifest V3 framework.

XRP (XRP) has been a subject of significant attention in the cryptocurrency market, particularly due to its ongoing legal battle with the U. S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The recent extension granted to Ripple to respond to the SEC’s appeal has further heightened market uncertainty. While the short-term technical analysis suggests a bearish trend, the long-term outlook remains cautiously optimistic. The potential resolution of the SEC case is a crucial factor that could significantly impact XRP’s price trajectory.

Major banks are warning the public about the rise of QR code phishing scams which are leading to customers sharing their financial details and being scammed through sophisticated fraud campaigns. Known as ‘quishing,’ this new scam involves fraudsters sending QR codes in attached PDFs through emails. Another version is where a QR code sticker has been placed on top of legitimate QR codes used to pay for parking. When scanned by a mobile phone or device, the QR code link could take people to an incorrect website and ask them to enter financial details or lead them to download malware. With it being sent within a document, experts told the Financial Times that the messages are frequently able to get through corporate cyber security filters. “The appeal for criminals is that it’s bypassing all of the [cyber security] training and it’s also bypassing our products,” said Chester Wisniewski, a senior adviser at security software company Sophos, to FT. QR code scam could be just one part of much bigger attack The actual figures around how many people have been affected through this means aren’t yet known as it can be difficult for banks to estimate, with the email sometimes being just one part of a much broader cyber attack. Banks like Santander, HSBC, and TSB are reported as having joined the UK National Cyber Security Centre and US Federal Trade Commission to raise concerns about this rise. “These attacks take advantage of the fact that QR codes, by nature, are difficult to interpret visually, so victims often don’t know where they are being directed to until it’s too late,” said Amir Sadon, director of research at cyber security consultancy Sygnia, to the Financial Times. According to a survey by security software company McAfee, published in May, more than a fifth of all online scams in the UK probably originated from QR codes. Wisniewski told FT: “Today almost no [cyber security] products are looking through attachments. “If this continues to be a problem, I suppose the industry will have to move there — but it will slow down the delivery of emails, and it will also make things more expensive.” Featured Image: AI-generated via Ideogram The post A rise in QR code scams, known as ‘quishing,’ has been seen appeared first on ReadWrite.

Where to start? This is not a namedrop by any means but back in the late 1990s I met David Bowie at an Eidos party at the now long-defunct E3 gaming show in Los Angeles. Bowie had provided the soundtrack for an Eidos game I can no longer remember the name of but nevertheless seemed nonplussed by gaming in general.

Black Ops 6 Zombies is definitely taking the fan-favorite mode back to its roots with a dedicated crew, complex easter eggs, and more. The Mustang and Sally pistols are an absolute classic weapon choice to fend off the undead and they do in fact make a return in BO6, albeit with a new name – Sally & Forth. Here, we’ll take you through how to get Mustang and Sally in Zombies so you can harness the nostalgic explosive pistol rounds. Black Ops 6 Zombies Mustang and Sally: How to get In previous Call of Duty games, getting your hands on Mustang and Sally was as easy as Pack A Punching your starting weapon but with Black Ops 6, you’ll have to do a bit more than that. You will be looking to Pack A Punch a pistol – the GS45 but doing this doesn’t give you the dual wielding variant and instead, just gives you Sally. To get both pistols at once, you’ll have to level up the GS45 to 31, which then unlocks the Akimbo option. This does take some time but when you load into Zombies and have no custom loadout, you will spawn with the GS45.
