Tech gadget builder bitluni recently unveiled his latest build, a 256-coreRISC-V megacluster. TheYouTube content creatordemonstrated the miniature supercomputer in a video that highlighted the design, production, assembly, and testing phases. Not everything went as planned, but the results are actually pretty nerdy and cool. For the design, bitluni combined 16 RISC-V superclusters into a single megacluster. Each supercluster consisted of 16CH32V003 RISC-V microcontrollersconnected with an 8-bit bus. Each supercluster contains its own LED because bitluni wanted to be able to display a line of text....

External GPU (eGPU) support on Apple Silicon Macs and MacBooks has been a persistent pain point for AI/ML developers. Through what some may consider to be black magic, Tiny Corp has managed to get an AMD eGPU working in Tiny Grad over USB3, a standard that inherently lacks PCIe capabilities. As they’re using libusb, this functionality extends to Windows, Linux, and even macOS, including devices with Apple Silicon. Traditionally, GPUs are connected through PCIe slots or the Thunderbolt/USB4 interfaces, which offer PCI Express tunneling support....

The Write Protection on the SD Card restricts users from writing or modifying any existing content in it. While attempting to copy files to the SD card, users can receive a prompt with the message “The disk is write-protected”. If you try toformat the SD card, a similar message may appear, preventing you from erasing the files. Sd cards generally come with a slider that lets you lock or write-protect the files in it....

This essentially stops users from reading, writing, or making modifications to the data inside the affected disk. The error occurs when there is any logical error on the drive or due to restrictions set by the administrator of the system. Another cause for this error to appear is due to corrupt files and folders stored in the drive or in the case of a newly purchased storage device, an uninitialized disk....

LN2 overclockerSkatterbencherhas taken AMD’s Ryzen 7 9700X to new heights, beating a 7.1GHz Core i9-14900KF in OCCT with nearly a 1 GHz deficit clock speed. The overclocker broke the OCCT AVX benchmark world record with a score of 269.35 points on AMD’s latest Zen 5 8-core chip. The world record-breaking result was achieved at just 6.318 GHz on the Ryzen 7 9700X. To get the Zen 5 chip to that speed, SkatterBencher used a host of techniques, rather than inputing a manual multiplier and voltage....

You’re trying to execute a command in the command prompt. But as soon as you hit Enter, cmd displays an error message saying, “not enough memory resources are available to process this command.” This error is not only limited to the Command Prompt. You can also get the same error message while installing a new program or accessing certain system files. As the message implies, this error means that Windows doesn’t have enough memory resources required to process the command, i....

In a press release Adata hasannouncedthat from the second quarter of 2024 it will use a thermal coating technology on the PCB of its DDR5 memory modules. This coating is claimed to reduce temperatures by 8.5 degrees Celsius in Adata’s own tests, and offer a heat dissipation efficiency of more than 10%. But, this new technology will not be available on all models. Compatible XPG memory modules clocked at 8,000 MT/s or more, including the new Lancer Neon RGB and Lancer Neon RGB series, will be available with the thermal coating from the second quarter of 2024....

A user who recently began using Cursor AI on a Pro Trial quicklyencountered a limitation. The software stopped generating code around 750 to 800 lines. But instead of telling the user about a possible limitation of the Trial version, the AI told him to learn how to code himself, as it would not do his work for him, and that could lead to “Generating code for others can lead to dependency and reduced learning opportunities....

In the wave of AI controversies and lawsuits, CNET has been publicly admonished since it first started posting thinly-veiled AI-generated content on its site in late 2022— a scandal that has culminated in the site being demoted from Trusted to Untrusted Sources on Wikipedia [h/tFuturism]. Considering that CNET has been in the business since 1994 and maintained a top-tier reputation on Wikipedia up until late 2020, this change came after lots of debate between Wikipedia’s editors and has drawn the attention of many in the media, including some CNET staff members....

There was a point where every gaming laptop was poised as a massive declaration of the gamer identity. But it ends up that even the most hardcore gamers may just want their gaming laptop to just be a normal laptop once in a while. And that’s what makes the Alienware m16 R2 (newly announced here atCES 2024) interesting — it was designed to be a powerful notebook, but also one that is meant for people who go to work, class, or just want to hide out in the corner of a cafe without lots of rainbows....
