Thunderbird 145 has been released with full native support for Microsoft Exchange email via the Exchange Web Services (EWS) protocol.
This means that Thunderbird users in Microsoft Exchange environments (e.g., Microsoft 365, Office 365) no longer need third-party add-ons and benefit from seamless message synchronization and folder management locally and on the server.
Migrating from Outlook to Thunderbird is also easier, as Mozilla’s email client automatically detects the settings and uses Microsoft’s OAuth2 authorization protocol.

The government lawyer knew what was coming as she stood inside a courtroom and texted an Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent waiting in a corridor a few feet away.
“I can’t do this,” the lawyer said in a text message as she looked at her docket of cases. “This is a new emotional load.”
“I understand,” the agent responded. “Hopefully we meet again in a better situation.”
Nearby, a Cuban man who had lived in the United States for years stepped from an elevator and into the courtroom where the government lawyer was waiting for what the man thought was a routine hearing.

40 years ago — on November 18, 1985 — a new comic strip appeared in the newspaper: Calvin and Hobbes.
Hobbes was a stuffed tiger, but in the mind of 6-year-old Calvin he was a wryly observant companion for his day-to-day challenges and wildly imaginative adventures.
Adventures of the beloved duo lasted just a decade. Their creator — cartoonist Bill Watterson — walked away from Calvin and Hobbes at the height of its popularity.

Two key Senate Democrats have launched an inquiry after a ProPublica investigation revealed this week that a White House official had intervened on behalf of his former legal clients — pro-Trump influencer Andrew Tate and his brother — during a federal investigation.
On Thursday, Sens. Richard Blumenthal and Gary Peters sent letters to the White House and the Department of Homeland Security asking for a full accounting of the official’s activities, calling his actions a “brazen interference with a federal investigation.”

Mastodon’s founder Eugen Rochko has officially stepped down as CEO. The move comes ten months after the company announced it would transition into a nonprofit entity and that Rochko would leave his post. Rochko will take on an advisory role with the company.
In a blog post about this decision, Rochko pointed to a desire for guardrails to avoid becoming another egotistical founder ”sabotaging thriving communities.” He added, ”But it would be uncouth for me to pretend that there isn’t some self-interest involved. Being in charge of a social media project is, turns out, quite the stressful endeavour, and I don’t have the right personality for it.”
