Indians Panic After Trump Sabotages Tech Firm Green Card Pipeline

Indians Panic After Trump Sabotages Tech Firm Green Card Pipeline

Published by Jenni Sidey

On October 8, 2026, Vice President JD Vance and Labor Secretary Keith Sonderling announced that the Department of Labor will not accept any new PERM applications (Permanent Labor Certification) or process any pending applications involving a list of prominent tech firms.  The action is being enforced amid ongoing federal investigations into alleged abuse of employment-based immigration programs.  This decision elicited outrage from a myriad of Democrats, but the group most flustered by the situation is undoubtedly Indian migrant workers and representatives.  India is by far the greatest beneficiary of America’s H-1B migrant worker program, and it’s not even close. Over the past ten years alone, over 8.7 million H-1B visas have been given to Indian nationals.  Roughly 70% of all H-1B approvals every year go to Indians.   8.7 million non-immigrant visas were issued to Indian nationals from March 2017 to Feb 2026. A non-immigrant visa is temporary permission to come to America for a limited time- to work, study, or visit – and then return home. 8,704,481 of those visas were issued, according to the …

I unlocked Nvidia’s professional GPU features on my consumer graphics card

I unlocked Nvidia’s professional GPU features on my consumer graphics card

Published by skeptic

Nvidia has maintained both a popular consumer and professional lineup for its GPUs for the longest time. While these GPUs might share the same underlying architecture, that’s about where the similarities end. Professional-grade Nvidia cards use specialized, signed Nvidia drivers, which “unlock” additional features. This led me down a rabbit hole, and I emerged with a solution to split my aging GTX 1050 Ti into multiple vGPUs to use with a virtual machine. Unfortunately, as you’ll soon find out, this is not an intuitive process and has severe hardware restrictions. Related Your Linux PC can handle HDMI 2.1 — the law is what’s holding it back When proprietary is practical. So, how does vgpu_unlock work? And a bit of a history lesson Amir Bohlooli / MUO There have been numerous attempts to crack this lock wide open, perhaps most notably DualCoder’s (Dual95) vgpu_unlock on GitHub. Essentially, it works by hooking code during the Nvidia kernel module compilation process you’d see at installation. After the script runs, it “tricks” the host system into believing you have …

Your laptop may be one cheap card away from built-in 5G cellular

Most laptops don’t have built-in cellular internet. While there is a $95 card you can buy for compatible laptops to add, there’s a free option that beats it. Here are your options if you want to add 5G to your laptop. Laptops can already have built-in 5G It’s just rare You can order niche, built-to-order laptops from Lenovo (with their ThinkPad T14/T14s), HP (in their EliteBook line), and certain Dell Latitude laptops, but most consumer laptops don’t 5G built in. Why built-in 5G never caught on in laptops Hint: you already have a 5G modem in your pocket, and Wi-Fi is enough for most Credit: Brandon / MUO Besides the additional cost and complexity of adding a 5G modem to a laptop, manufacturers realize that for most people, Wi-Fi is enough, and it’s pretty much everywhere you use your laptop. If not, most people have a 5G modem in their pocket they can tether to in just a few clicks via their phone, and most have unlimited data plans (but read the fine print on those) …

Old-School Credit Card Scams Are Far From Dead

Old-School Credit Card Scams Are Far From Dead

Welcome to Kernel Panic! A weekly newsletter by Lily Hay Newman and Matt Burgess from inside the new world of privacy and digital security. To receive this newsletter in your inbox each week, sign up here. When every random text message feels like it’s a scam, and with AI supercharging digital fraud, old-time credit card skimmers and bogus letters that arrive in the mail may seem laughable as potential threats in 2026. But as we all suffer through a seemingly unending barrage of potential scams, these antiquated attacks are still costing victims around the world dearly. The fake-new-credit-card-in-your-mailbox trick is particularly insidious. Portugal, France, and Germany have all had waves of physical credit card scams in recent years where criminals have mailed phony replacement cards or letters to potential victims. Included letters often claim a current card is set to expire soon, whether the victim actually has one that’s about to expire or not. In order for the new (fake) card to be activated, the scam letter says, it should be registered using an included …

For years, Khalwinder Singh Bhengura lived an unassuming life in Arlington, Texas, where the 69-year-old Indian immigrant works a graveyard shift preparing passenger meals for an airline catering company. Bhengura moved to the U.S. and spent 18 years working toward becoming a legal resident, securing his green card in 2022. It was a cause for celebration in the Bhengura family. Then things took an unexpected turn. In 2024, according to a federal indictment, Bhengura registered to vote and cast a ballot in the November presidential election, even though he’s not allowed to do so without being an American citizen. Bhengura’s case is part of a Trump administration campaign to prioritize prosecuting noncitizen voters. On Sept. 10, federal authorities arrested Bhengura and charged him with voting as an alien in a federal election and making a false statement about being a U.S. citizen in order to register to vote. …

Nvidia’s forgotten GPU became the most popular card on Steam, but not for the reason you’d think

Nvidia’s forgotten GPU became the most popular card on Steam, but not for the reason you’d think

Published by skeptic

When it launched in 2021, the RTX 3060 didn’t land well, largely because it failed to deliver the “wow” factor its other 30-Series family members did. Despite its solid 12GB of VRAM, which is considerable for 1440p gaming even to date, the RTX 3060 missed the mark because of its weaker GPU core and lower bandwidth, which limited its ability to use that VRAM. Fast-forward to 2026, and the RTX 3060 has finally gotten the flowers it deserves, becoming the most-used GPU on Steam, according to its latest Hardware Survey of August 2026. Even though it is still one of the best 1080p/1440p gaming GPUs in an era when even budget cards are crossing the $500 threshold, the real reason for its rise in fame isn’t gaming, but the same reason why memory prices are through the roof.
