DIY HDD: As any computer enthusiast will attest, being in the computer business for a few years usually means accumulating a pile of spare parts and hardware components. Old hard drives can be repurposed as additional storage in newer systems, or even transformed into creative modding projects with a few extra pieces and a bit of soldering, and then there's this. One such modder, who enjoys tinkering with electronics and PC hardware, turned a retired hard disk drive into a custom disc sander. R

Concerns about AI's energy use have a lot of people looking into ways to cut down on its power requirements. Many of these focus on hardware and software approaches that are pretty straightforward extensions of existing technologies. But a few technologies are much further out there. One that's definitely in the latter category? Quantum computing. In some ways, quantum hardware is a better match for some of the math that underlies AI than more traditional hardware.

Security verification for hardware is literally foundational: hardware resides on technology’s ground floor, so attacks on it can impact every floor above it, including operating systems, applications, and communications. To examine technology’s hardware foundation, a group of researchers recently used simulation-based hardware information-flow tracking (IFT) for hardware security verification.

Curtis Joe / Android Authority TL;DR An interview with Switch 2 devs revealed that the Nintendo Switch 2 relies partially on emulation to play Switch 1 games. The two systems do not have compatible hardware, so native backwards compatibility isn’t possible. Nintendo has cracked down on Nintendo Switch emulators in the past years, despite admitting emulation is legal. The Nintendo Switch 2 has finally been announced, and the good news for anyone upgrading is that it will be (mostly) backwards

The GPU in your computer is about 10 to 100 times more powerful than the CPU, depending on workload. For real-time graphics rendering and machine learning, you are enjoying that power, and doing those workloads on a CPU is not viable. Why aren’t we exploiting that power for other workloads? What prevents a GPU from being a more general purpose computer? I believe there are two main things holding it back.
