https://security.googleblog.com/2021/05/introducing-half-double-new-hammering.html?m=1


Google has released information about an advancement(originally appeared on DDR3 in 2014 but Google's Project Zero helped mitigate it in 2015) in the Rowhammer exploit they have called Half Double Rowhammer that essentially affects all platforms and memory as it attacks how DRAM functions and therefore no hardware or software can prevent it. Only firmware logic to detect it but the previous mitigations are no longer effective.

As physics would prove, the smaller and smaller the DRAM cells get thanks to advancement in technology, the more effective this exploit becomes as rows of cells are now closer together and therefore more cells can have their bits flipped.
It's quite interesting and worth researching if you want more information on how the attack works.

Artist is suing capcom for $12million. Apparently Capcom stole multiple images over the course of a few years from one of your books.

As much as 80 images/assets were used without permission.

when Devil May Cry and Resident Evil 4 were released in 2001 and 2005, respectively. It seems that Juracek wasn't sure there was copyright infringement at first, but sensitive data from the November 2020 Capcom ransomware attack confirmed her suspicions.

"The file names for at least one of the images from the Capcom hacked files are the same file names as those used on the CD-ROM," reads the lawsuit.

Source I got information from:
https://phys.org/news/2021-06-ultra-high-density-hard-graphene-ten.html

Original Source: https://www.cam.ac.uk/research/news...-made-with-graphene-store-ten-times-more-data

University of Cambridge research shows replacing carbon-based overcoats (COCs), with graphene layers(these layers protect the physical platter that stores data) allows for an incredible increase of data density by 10 fold because they are significantly thinner and requires less layers simultaneously. Allowing for significantly larger capacity HDDs all while improving every area of importance from COCs.
 
Jurassic World Evolution is coming out, A sequel to the 2018 park builder.




Probably just another hollow cash grab by FDev like the previous game to accompany the Jurassic Park movie coming out next year.

Not to sound like a smarta$$ but I was, FDev did the last one prior to Jurassic World Lost Kingdom coming out so it only made sense for them to do the next one too, Plus they built in way way too many limitations into the first game.

No mod support, Island creation was a complete no show, Some mechanics just seemed way too limiting.
 
Regarding the contents of that article, TSMC isn't as far ahead as people believe. There 7nm is still behind Intels 10nm, they only surpassed Intel with their 7nm+ node.

The best way to measure node advantages across these companies is transistor/mm^2. Still the most effective way to have the best performance is to have the best architecture. All the leading nodes are to close for them to be outright better in every metric. You need smarter architecture to be the best. That's why Nvidia still dominates AMD even though technically it's a 8nm vs 7nm battle. There density is similar so the better architecture wins.

So I call BS on that rumour. Nvidia will work with whoever can provide them enough supply and best price. AMD are contractually obligated to use TSMC and it's not like Intel would open up for them. Leaving them little choice
 
New James Cameron Avatar game, Open world FPS with RPG elements coming out next year and it's been in development since 2016'ish.

The Avatar game does look good and given it's being developed by Massive and they have been working on it for a fair few years now, since I think they announced they working on it, around 3 or 4 years ago, I am optimistic.

Being developed by Massive though is also to me a downside, but my biggest concern is the engine.

The Division and The Division 2 both have performance issues, although smooth the games seem to perform worse than they possibly could.
 
With Rainbow Six Siege gaining DLSS support many noticed that it is using the latest DLSS 2.2 which noticeably reduces ghosting.

Many are now copying the single nvdll.dll file from Rainbow Six Siege and pasting it into existing DLSS2 game directories.... and it's working.

Games confirmed to work so far albeit some people are having mixed results but the best use is in Cyberpunk, Noticeable improvement.

Control
Cyberpunk 2077
Death Stranding
Metro Exodus Enhanced Edition
Nioh 2
No Man's Sky

Undercover footage showing amazon destroying millions of unsold items.

https://www.itv.com/news/2021-06-21...ouses-every-year-itv-news-investigation-finds

Pretty disgusting. They could donate them to the world of those who cannot afford anything. And the waste that must get produced...

One centre had a target to destroy 130,000 items a week.

Not surprising really, Friend of mine used to work in the "refurb" department of amazon, There was nothing refurbished about it, They got brand new items that weren't sold, Smartphones for example, Took them out of their original boxes, Made sure they still worked, Put them in plain cardboard boxes, Call them "refurbished" and then marked the price down.

Amazon does some very shady stuff.
