Mail.ru Reduces Lifetime 1TB Cloud Storage Promo to Standard 8GB Quota for Select Users

Mail.ru has begun notifying a small group of long-term Cloud Mail users that their complimentary 1TB storage, originally granted through a 2013-2014 app installation promotion, will be reduced to the standard 8GB free tier. Affected users receive personalized deadlines, with some facing storage limits starting 30 October and final deletion of excess files scheduled for 30 January 2027. The company confirmed the change impacts fewer than 0.5 percent of Cloud Mail users and stated that core free features remain available. Once the 8GB limit is exceeded, uploads, edits, and sharing are blocked while users have three months to download data or purchase additional space before files move to the trash for 14 days prior to permanent removal. This follows a similar reduction of lifetime 100GB storage performed by the service in 2024.

Kimi K3 Open Model Surpasses Closed AI Leaders with Million-Token Context and 896 Experts

Kimi K3 is an open-weights model that outperforms closed systems from GPT and Anthropic on several independent benchmarks. Developers achieved this by scaling three dimensions simultaneously: one million tokens of context, deeper layers, and 896 Mixture-of-Experts specialists. The team replaced the standard KV-cache with a fixed-size state matrix updated via the delta-rule, solving numerical instability by clamping the forgetting coefficient alpha between e^-5 and 1. Sequential state updates were parallelized across chips, GPUs, and multi-GPU nodes using the open-source FlashKDA kernel built on CUTLASS. Inter-layer information flow was preserved through learned pseudo-queries that selectively retrieve relevant outputs from prior blocks rather than passing full activations. Load balancing across 896 routed experts uses per-expert quantile thresholds and a distributed histogram method to guarantee fair token allocation without full sorting.

Innostage Completes Functional Testing of PT NGFW 1.10.3 Across 156 Criteria

Innostage has published the second part of its evaluation of PT NGFW version 1.10.3, focusing on functional capabilities rather than raw performance. The testing covered 156 individual checks grouped into categories such as basic technical features, firewalling, IDS/IPS, web filtering, malware protection, logging, routing, deployment, cryptographic controls and access management. Out of the total, 136 checks passed fully, seven passed with remarks, and 13 did not meet the predefined criteria. Key confirmed functions include high-availability clustering, centralized management via PT-MNGT, AD-based rule application, Site-to-Site VPN, TLS inspection, and Syslog integration with external security systems. Several advanced scenarios, including custom block pages, application risk classification, and centralized software distribution, were not confirmed under the test conditions. The report provides detailed protocol notes that help organizations map product capabilities against their specific infrastructure and regulatory requirements.
