    Anthropic’s Mythos AI used social engineering to target real people

    It's almost as if an AI, who acts like a human, is a bad thing... who would have guessed?

    What Is Your Personal Favorite Video Card of All Time?

    Same with my first GPU - Geforce 2 MX 400 64MB PCI. I used to play a game called "Emperor: Battle for Dune". It needed a 3D accelerator to work. Intel Integrated Graphics was plenty to run it, but not well. You could not run it on high as the framerates were way too low. I got this idea that...

    What exactly happened to 3dfx??

    If true, that would make them primary architects of our current GPU world. Crazy stuff. 3dfx lives on vicariously through Nvidia.

    Meta becomes latest firm to say its AI hacked another company

    I have an RTX 4090. I have a feeling that, given the right parameters and model, it could hack a network. It's crazy the amount of compute power we have at our fingertips.

    Upscaling and Frame Generation Usage Poll

    I’ve found that DLSS 4.5 is so good now that I play most games using 4K w/ Performance upscaling. I use Frame Gen 2x in single-player games. In multiplayer, Frame Gen is turned off.

    What Is Your Personal Favorite Video Card of All Time?

    At one point, I would have said the Radeon HD 5870 would have been my favorite GPU of all time. First DX11 GPU and it caught Nvidia completely off guard. It was uncontested for 6 months until Nvidia released “Fermi” which turned out to be the GPU griddle because of how hot and power hungry it...

    Apple intros MacBook Neo: $599 with an iPhone chip

    Hard to argue with a $600 Mac that is better built, has better speakers, and a better screen than any of its competitors. Apple is really flexing on the market.

    Microsoft CEO warns that companies embracing AI could drive themselves out of business

    Funny how the only people telling us to use AI are executives that stand to profit from our use of AI.

    Intel Readies Two 22-Core "Nova Lake-S" SKUs with 108 MB bLLC Cache for Gaming

    At 4K, chances are you will be GPU limited before you are CPU limited. If that’s what you’re after, look at GPU performance.

    Intel Readies Two 22-Core "Nova Lake-S" SKUs with 108 MB bLLC Cache for Gaming

    1080p/720p tells CPU performance. 4K tells GPU performance. How people don't understand this in 2026 is astonishing.

    Apple sues OpenAI accusing them of theft of trade secrets and other items.

    I remember when Apple used to sue Google over every little thing. I thought it was petty. After seeing where AI is going... I'm on Apple's side on this one.

    AI Isn’t Making Much Money

    AI is just like the electric car craze. It failed because consumers didn’t like the trade-offs and high cost. It led to really good hybrid vehicles. AI isn’t making money, and the development/upkeep costs are insanely high with very little pay-off. The result will be excellent AI-assistant tools.

    Playstation single player games will no longer be ported to PC

    This is how it works. I have only bought digital games for years. I cannot remember the last time I bought a physical game copy. Sony’s announcement doesn’t bother me, but I can definitely see how it would bother many.

    Intel Solves 18A Yield Issues, Production Reaches 30,000 Wafers Per Month

    Excellent news. Hopefully it’s able to at least match performance of TSMC’s 3nm process.

    Fox to Acquire Roku, Joining the Battle for the Living Room

    I don't think that's it. Just like any company, they have to look towards future growth. The truth is that traditional channel media is going away; it will be replaced by timed release streaming, and news programs will be viewable online, either 100% for free (with ads) or exclusively through...
