This new AIO cooler packs more displays than your entire setup

Because, Why Not: There has been a growing trend among many PC builders recently: in-case displays. Not only have these screens been getting bigger and more advanced, but some people find that one just isn't enough. That's where Chinese firm Jonsbo comes in. The company's new AIO cooler series packs a bewildering four customizable LCDs. Jonsbo's TF3-360SC series initially looks like a typical AIO cooler with a 3.5-inch 640 x 480 screen built into the pump block – a design we've seen many times

Algorithm for simulating phosphor persistence of analog oscilloscopes

Background to phosphor displays and analog oscilloscopes For all of you that have used analog oscilloscopes or other equipment with a phosphor display knows how beautiful the image can be from such displays. The color grading, which naturally occurs due to the persistence in the glow from the phosphor, also acts as a useful measurement on the signal integrity, such as how much noise there is and the shape/modulation of the underlying signal.

The ‘Star Trek: Starfleet Academy’ Trailer Welcomes You Back to School

Star Trek faces an uncertain future at the moment, as shows that helped define its streaming renaissance end one by one, and little is known about what lies on the horizon (especially thanks to current events in our own world). So it’s perhaps fitting, then, that the one new show we do know is coming is all about welcoming a new generation back to Star Trek‘s fundamental ideals after a similar period of uncertainty: Starfleet Academy.

Since then, it's proven to be a popular game that was the best-selling title in June, and in a few days, it's going to get one of its most requested features. In Nightreign, you can play solo or in a team of three. On July 30, the option for Duo Expeditions will be available, letting players take on runs with a friend.

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 review: More screen, more battery but something's missing

Samsung’s annual foldable refresh includes a trio of devices this year. While the Z Fold 7 comes with a top-tier processor and cameras, the Z Flip 7 carries over many technical details from its predecessor. In fact, the most significant upgrade this year is a more expansive front display, or Flex Window, as the company prefers to call it. Samsung has also, somehow, added an even bigger battery to a slimmer foldable, which is technically impressive. However, the company made minimal software add

Samsung killed its classic DeX mode in One UI 8, but there’s a good reason

Mishaal Rahman / Android Authority TL;DR Samsung killed its “classic” DeX in One UI 8, replacing it with a new version built on top of Google’s native Desktop Mode in Android. This move aligns DeX with Google’s broader effort to improve Android’s desktop capabilities, which should benefit DeX in the long run. However, the new DeX is currently a downgrade for users, as it lacks many quality-of-life features that were present in the classic version. Samsung DeX is one of the best features of O
