    The Pentagon Wants to Replace Passwords with the Way You Move or Walk

    China is already using your gait or how you walk to identify you from street cameras. I'm sure this wont be used for any nefarious purposes. And just for info, your Fingerprint is a unique identifier, it is not a password, it should be your login. If the Pentagon wants us to use stuff, the...

    i3 3220 for Windows 10?

    I would recommend at least a 120GB SSD, and upping to 8GB Ram if you can. It will work with 4GB, it just depends on how many tabs, and windows are going to be opened at the same time. The SSD though is one of the biggest changes for PC's in the last decade. It will speed up the PC by a large...

    Win10 1803 update, New Hidden Partition. Safe to Delete?

    My Work desktop is still 1709, and doesn't have this extra partition. My Work laptop is updated to 1803, and has this extra partition. I begin with a 300MB NTFS Partition (Healthy OEM Partition) Then a 500MB EFI partition Then the C: Drive Then the new 476MB NTFS (Healthy OEM Partition). I'm...

    NVIDIA NDA & HardOCP - POLL

    Frankly, I would sign it. Its not like you can't just opt-out later on if it turns out to be a bad decision. On the other hand, I liked the idea of raffling off the cards once benched, but that also means no further benches with those cards later on....so no follow on benches like 6 months...

    Nvidia Is Hiring Ray Tracing Talent to Revolutionize the Graphics Industry

    I'm not entirely sure. It would seem that it requires a Volta GPU, but that could just be because the Tech isn't in any of the older GPU's. It does mention DXR (DirectX Raytracing) and I think it uses that as a base. The examples on the Nvidia blog seem to use DXR. So, It could be 'sort of'...

    New Research Shows That Owning an iPhone Is the Most Common Sign of Wealth

    I like that my phone has a removable battery, microSD storage, and a headphone jack. Wouldn't own an iPhone if I was given one. Not saying they are bad, just not my cup of tea.

    Install Malware From a Third of a Mile Away

    When I'm travelling to work and back, I already switch off Data and Wifi. I do have a VPN setup with a Pi2 at home and openVPN. I've been wondering for a while whether they can hack into the VPN, and i always assume they can. I know a lot of people who leave Data, Wifi and GPS on all the...

    AMD Looking to Chiplets

    i agree that light will probably be never used to communicate internally within a chip, although it might get there some day. I think Intel's been working on this type of tech for quite some time. I think its mainly for chip interconnects, but with light, I suppose you could have it travel...

    Anybody out There Still Listening to Music on AM or FM Radio?

    I listen to the radio on my Mobile phone on my daily commute, morning and evening. Yes, the songs do tend to repeat often, but I get the news every half-hour, and breaking news as it happens. FM Radio doesn't cost me anything, no Data, so i'm not that bothered to have to listen to the ads every...

    Playstation 5 Detail Rumor

    This Dev kits will probably be just Ryzen and Vega. They will be compatible with Ryzen+/2 and Navi anyway. The only wonder is how powerful is it likely to be, if based on 7nm tech ? they could possibly fit 4096 shaders on there, so it would be equivalent to Top Vega basically.... I can't see...

    Drivers Blinded by “Too-Bright” LED Headlights on New Cars, Warns RAC

    High beams in Fog will just reflect back at you and blind you. That is why they are turned off automatically when you put your high beams on, they become pointless ;) I have tried a few times, usually when the Fog lights aren't doing much better than the dip beam, but it always reflects back...

    Drivers Blinded by “Too-Bright” LED Headlights on New Cars, Warns RAC

    I'm blinded all the time at night, by mostly incorrect headlight levels, and way too bright lights. I was hoping by now we'd all have Infra-red HUD displays on most cars. IR isn't going to blind you, and you'll see much better in Fog too. Where are the aftermarket IR HUD's ?
