BBC America?s original series, Copper, has landed the talents of actor William ?Billy? Baldwin for a role in its sophomore season this summer. The period drama will feature Baldwin as a ?tough and charming? Tammany Hall power broker in the final two episodes of the upcoming season.

Baldwin has done his fair share of guest appearances in the past few years since his roles in Gossip Girl and Hawaii Five-O came to a close. His character on Copper, whose name is coincidentally also William, will the William ?Wild Bill? Eustace. Wild Bill is described as ?the scion of a successful river barge owning family who parlayed a business career into political power and a rising star in the 1860s New York's political machine.? Wild Bill has a special talent for political scheming and has built himself an important reputation, accompanied by many connections, through a number of saloons he owns in the city.

The addition of Baldwin to the cast is the most recent in a line of castings that will beef up the BBC America program. Current cast member Donal Logue has been added as a regular, with Alfred Woodard, Eamonn Walker, Lee Tergesenall and Lindy Booth joining as guests. In addition, the program will welcome Thomas Kelly (Blue Bloods) as showrunner in season two, which is set to start on Sunday, June 23rd.

    • Microsoft finally launches WSL Containers in public preview

      I honestly think WSL is one of the coolest things about Windows. The fact that you can type one command and now your computer also runs Linux, without any VM or OS setup is impressive. Yes, it is a VM under the covers, but what is impressive is how seamless and simple it all is.

    • Apple releases iOS 26.5.2 with dozens of security fixes for iPhone

      By Karthik Mudaliar · Posted

      Apple releases iOS 26.5.2 with dozens of security fixes for iPhone by Karthik Mudaliar Apple has released iOS 26.5.2 and iPadOS 26.5.2, which are security-only updates for the iPhone and the iPad. The update brings a bunch of security fixes for WebKit, WebRTC, WebKit Storage, WebKit Canvas, Web Extensions, libxslt, IOGPUFamily, and even the kernel. Some of the WebKit issues that were fixed could have allowed malicious web content to disclose sensitive user information, exfiltrate cross-origin data, crash Safari, or process restricted web content outside the browser sandbox. One notable WebKit Storage bug could let a malicious website to silently hijack clipboard data, according to Apple’s description. Other WebKit-related flaws involved memory corruption, use-after-free bugs, type confusion, out-of-bounds writes, permissions problems, and cross-origin data handling issues. The update also includes three kernel-related fixes. Apple says one of the flaws could let an app write kernel memory or cause unexpected system termination, while another may leak sensitive kernel state, and a third could corrupt kernel memory or terminate the system unexpectedly. Although Apple hasn't described them as remote web attacks, kernel bugs are still important to fix, as they can sometimes be chained with other flaws to escape app or browser restrictions. The updates are available for iPhone 11 and later, iPad Pro 12.9-inch 3rd generation and later, iPad Pro 11-inch 1st generation and later, iPad Air 3rd generation and later, iPad 8th generation and later, and iPad mini 5th generation and later. Similar security fixes also came with the latest update to macOS Tahoe 26.5.2, which Apple released on the same day. That overlap is not surprising, since Safari, WebKit, WebRTC, and other underlying components are shared across Apple’s platforms. Users are advised to update their devices sooner rather than later as these security fixes are crucial. iOS 26.5.2 can be installed from Settings > General > Software Update. Similarly, Mac users can find macOS Tahoe 26.5.2 through System Settings > General > Software Update.
