gizmodo.com Kyle Barr 2025-10-20 16:00:09

In the end, graphic-obsessed gamers only really care about maximizing frame rates. But that’s not all gaming laptops are good for. If you ignore the blinking RGB lights most gamer devices stuff into every crevice, they pack high-end CPUs and GPUs built for intensive graphics processing—handy for artists or AI developers. Whereas there are plenty of workstation laptops with high-end specs built for working stiffs, Acer said screw it and gave us a business-centric laptop that looks like a gamer’s

Scientists Pinpoint Cause of Mysterious Electrical Surges on Satellites

gizmodo.com Passant Rabie 2025-10-21 21:40:43

In 1994, two Canadian TV satellites failed within mere hours of each other. The pair was in a geostationary orbit when a major solar storm hit, resulting in electrostatic discharges that disabled their control electronics. Anik E1 and E2 are just one example of the effects of electric charge buildup on satellites, known as spacecraft environment discharge. New findings show a direct correlation between a spacecraft’s electric discharge and peaks in the flux of electrons in space, identifying hu
