What are your favorite tools?

Hacker News - Wed, 11/11/2026 - 12:07am

I’m really liking:

Hex: voice to text locally. Better than Handy

Paper2audio.com : TTS on cloud for books and very generous free tier. Synchronized across web and app too

What Would Be 'Showrooming'?

Hacker News - Tue, 11/10/2026 - 11:57pm

I am looking for a device that's available locally, but at a higher price than what I can get on the universal cheap online. Any thoughts on what would be the right premium to pay to local retail? (I had a number, the retailer didn't hit it, I still don't want to order online yet).

Show HN: Black Ops II statically recompiled to native ARM64 macOS

Hacker News - Tue, 11/10/2026 - 11:56pm

I grew up with Black Ops 2 and wanted to see if I could make it work on my 2020 MacBook Pro. So I used Claude Opus 5.5 to create a tool that converts your copy of the game (from Steam) to a native ARM64 Mac app, with almost 60fps in all areas. The whole game is statically recompilated ahead-of-time (AOT) and does not use any emulator whatsoever, be it Wine, Crossover or Rosetta. The best thing is the performance, although some heat issues are still to fix. You get to play the whole Campaign, local Multiplayer (with bots) and local Zombies (all DLCs maps; you need to have them in your Steam library obviously) at about 60fps. Split-screen was not in the PC version, but I've been working on it lately; it's coming soon! LAN mode is on the roadmap for later too :)

Tell HN: Are You Real?

Yes. You are a real person who thinks, feels emotions, and asks questions.

Cisco Identity Services Engine Authorization Bypass Vulnerabilities

Cisco Security Advisories - Tue, 11/10/2026 - 10:37pm

Multiple vulnerabilities in the web-based management interface of Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE) and Cisco ISE Passive Identity Connector (ISE-PIC) could allow an authenticated, remote attacker to modify parts of the configuration on an affected device.

These vulnerabilities are due to the lack of server-side validation of Administrator permissions. An attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities by submitting a crafted HTTP request to an affected system. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to modify descriptions of files on specific pages. To exploit these vulnerabilities, an attacker would need valid Administrator credentials.

Cisco has released software updates that address these vulnerabilities. There are no workarounds that address these vulnerabilities.

This advisory is available at the following link:
https://sec.cloudapps.cisco.com/security/center/content/CiscoSecurityAdvisory/cisco-sa-ise-auth-bypass-1-MxcTNgwx

This advisory is part of a group of advisories. For a complete list of the advisories and links to them, see Cisco Advance Notification for Publication of September 16, 2026, Security Advisories. In addition, for further documentation of improvements and fixes in Cisco Identity Services Engine, see Cisco Identity Services Engine Security Hardening Release: September 2026.
