wired.com Beth Mole 2025-09-07 17:07:40

Despite touting ambitious goals of making America healthier, the Trump administration on Monday revealed in court documents that it is backpedaling on a ban on cancer-causing asbestos. Last year, under the Biden administration, the Environmental Protection Agency took a long-awaited step to ban the last type of asbestos still used in the US—chrysotile asbestos, aka “white asbestos.” While use of chrysotile asbestos was on the decline, the dangerous mineral has lingered in various gaskets, brake

Nintendo shows off Donkey Kong Bananza’s destructive gameplay

Switch 2 owners will soon have another big Nintendo game to play. During its latest Direct presentation, the company showed off plenty more of Donkey Kong Bananza, a 3D platformer that launches as a Switch 2 exclusive on July 17th — and it’s looking like a surprisingly robust experience. In the new game DK teams up with a younger version of the singer Pauline — who apparently has been hidden inside of a rock for some time — and travels to an underground realm that seems kind of like Nintendo’s

Zen 2’s launch was a defining moment for AMD. For the first time in many, many years, AMD’s single thread performance could go head to head with Intel’s best. Zen 2 also started a trend where AMD brought up to 16 cores to desktop CPUs, giving consumers very strong multithreaded performance without having to buy HEDT platforms. But Zen 2 was also flexible and did a very good job of scaling down to lower power targets. That was especially true when Zen 2 cores were implemented in more power effic

Linux kernel WireGuard can go 'fast' on decent hardware

I'm used to thinking of encryption as a slow thing that can't deliver anywhere near to network saturation, even on basic gigabit Ethernet connections. This is broadly the experience we see with our current VPN servers, which struggle to turn in more than relatively anemic bandwidth with OpenVPN and L2TP, and so for a long time I assumed it would also be our experience with WireGuard if we tried to put anything serious behind it.
