Per a report fromDruckerChannel, HP has finally been forced to discontinue its cheaper e-series LaserJet printers due to customers experiencing problems with their online-only and always tied to HP+ subscription requirements. Among other things, HP+ requires a permanent Internet connection, and customers only use HP-original ink and toners, not allowing for third-party alternatives to be used at all. There are benefits to HP+, including cloud printing and an extra year’s warranty, but the forced online requirement for a cheaper printer left a bad taste in the mouths of many consumers....

Just like itannounced in October, Intel hasspun off its programmable solutions groupinto a standalone FPGA company that regains its historical name, Altera. Inteltook over Altera for $16.7 billion in late 2015, which was among the largest acquisitions in the high-tech industry back then. The new Intel-owned company will operate independently, much as it used to, while it focuses on expanding its product lineup. Altera will continue offering field-programmable gate array (FPGA) solutions across a wide range of applications, including traditional sectors like automotive, communications, data centers, embedded systems, industrial, and military-aerospace, as well as emerging and developing sectors like AI, cloud, network, and edge computing....
A new rumor claims the purported appearance of Intel’s newZ890 motherboardsand upcoming desktopArrow Lakeprocessors.Алексейon X claims that motherboard vendors will reportedly announce Z890 motherboards on October 10, and Arrow Lake CPU review embargoes allegedly lift on October 24. The claims support previous rumors that Intel is announcing its desktop Arrow Lake chips and the new LGA1851 platform this month. Intel’s new platform will compete with AMD’s brand-newRyzen 9000-series CPUs and new X870E/X870 chipset motherboards....
Computer parts don’t exist and operate in a vacuum because even the strongest, highest-performing GPU in the world can’t compensate fully for an underpowered CPU. Each component of your computer works together to create the type of experience you have on your PC. If your CPU or GPU is weaker than other components, it might bottleneck other parts of your computer and keep them from performing to their full potential....
Raspberry Pi wizard Jeff Geerling has demonstrated 4K60 gaming on hisRaspberry Pi 5setup. Crucially, the Pi 5 was given a considerable lift in the GPU department via the use of an M.2 to OCuLink adapter and anAMD Radeon RX 460desktop graphics card. It may sound quite a simple ‘hack’ from our brief intro, but there were quite a few more bits of support hardware required, as well as Linux kernel patching, to achieve the 4K60 gaming goal....
When we think of computers, we almost always think of modern-day computers thatrun on electricity. But electricity doesn’t drive all computers. Instead of using transistors and electricity, North Carolina State University researchers havedeveloped a computerthat utilizes the art of Kirigami, which is the art of origami combined with cutting to create and control 3D shapes. The Kirigami computer can be manipulated to represent several states, including 1 and 0, like all computing architectures behind ourPCsand phones today....
For over a year, hardware enthusiastDaniel Simionescu(sdz) has been hard at work porting 3dfx’s (now-defunct) Voodoo graphics to the mobile form factor. Now, the fruits of their efforts have materialized in the form ofseveral designs, with one including a Voodoo4 GPU integrated into aDellPrecision M4800 laptop using a custom-designedMXM(Mobile PCI Express Module) card. YouTuber Omores got their hands on this exact setup and decided to take it for a spin in Windows 98 and XP....
