Did you know, Google co-founder Larry Page attempted to sell the search engine for $1.6 million? Read Entire Article

Discord is rolling out age verification worldwide, requiring a face scan or ID for full access starting next month. New and unverified accounts will move to a "teen" setting by default. That means tighter content filters, and safer DM handling with warnings and separate inboxes for messages from unfamiliar users....

The university's team reports that their approach centers on controlled "softening" of the material rather than complete melting. The process, known as hot-wire laser irradiation, reshapes tungsten carbide while maintaining its exceptional hardness and minimizing defects – an achievement that could transform how cutting, drilling, and construction tools are manufactured....

The firm analyzed data from more than 22,700 vehicles across 21 models and found a striking pattern: batteries subjected to frequent charging sessions above 100 kilowatts degraded at roughly twice the rate of those primarily using lower-power options such as Level 2 chargers. Read Entire Article

CISA has ordered all civilian federal agencies to identify and remove "end-of-support" hardware and software that vendors no longer patch or maintain. The new directive, known as Binding Operational Directive 26-02, is part of an aggressive overhaul aimed at closing one of the most persistent security gaps in federal IT:......

The method, described in Advanced Materials, replaces the slow, multi-step molding and casting process that traditionally defines soft robotics. Researchers have figured out how to 3D-print structures that twist, curl, or bend exactly as programmed, just by pumping air into their built-in channels. Read Entire Article

The negotiations, which took place last year, signal how deeply automation is beginning to influence professional services markets that have long been defined by human labor. For decades, audit pricing has reflected time, expertise, and regulatory complexity. Now, tools powered by machine learning and generative AI are changing that calculus....

The Heat Pass Block first appeared in Samsung's 2nm Exynos 2600, reportedly delivering a 16 percent improvement in thermal resistance. It's a copper-based layer built directly onto the processor die, providing a direct pathway for heat to dissipate before it can radiate through surrounding components. Read Entire Article

Rather than delid the $12,000 workstation chip, the team reverse-engineered its heat spreader to design a replacement from scratch. They borrowed an integrated heat spreader (IHS) through Asus China's general manager Tony Yu and then used older Ryzen Threadripper 1900X chips as test subjects. Read Entire Article

AMD has an easy win sitting right in front of it, yet it's choosing not to take it. FSR 4 already works on older Radeon GPUs, so why is AMD still holding it back? Read Entire Article
