Hey guys, i have received an email from BSDEX. A German crypto exchange. The email has been sent to an address, that is only known to flexispot. There is likely a data breach at Flexispot. Is there any statement from the? In Germany, we say "Datenschutzvorfall". Who else is affected? https://stadt-bremerhaven.de/flexispot-kundendaten-fuer-registrierung-bei-anderen-diensten-genutzt-moeglicher-daten-leak/

This tool forces Windows to launch the upgrade in Server mode so it doesn't have the TPM 2.0 check.

With this, you'd be able to upgrade to Windows 11 even with an older machine.

Was watching a youtube video (about Ticketmaster bots) and got to the technical part at 09:35. This details how the ticketmaster scalp bots get around captcha requests by not using data servers.

Essentially they are buying access to personal internet routers all over the world. This is typically through users using free vpn services.

I had no idea this was a thing.

I have never heard this talked about, but also know that if you are using a "free" service, YOU are the product.

As a new user of PIA (segue to our sponsor thanks ltt) I googled it to make sure they didn't use P2P vpn bullshit. They don't , from what I can tell.

Thoughts ?

Intel CEO Lip-Bu Tan in a leaked recording told employees that:

“On training I think it is too late for us.”

Layoffs underway

  • Up to 20% of manufacturing staff being eliminated.
  • Automotive and marketing divisions being dismantled.
  • Cuts in California, Arizona, Israel and Oregon with more scheduled

Intel is behind in:

  • Data center chips (lost significant market share).
  • PC architecture (improving, but not enough).
  • AI training (Nvidia dominates).

New focus:

  • Edge AI: Running AI on local devices.
  • Agentic AI: Systems that act without constant human input.
  • Hired 3 new VPs to spearhead AI efforts.

Watching WAN show vod today and learned about Linus's braces that he had before filming the video on lossless scaling. Would be funny if they just go with the joke for that video lol

The youtube-Algorithm decided, that it is time to watch this tech upgrade again (tbh: these videos are the best!):

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WmPy8j79Bxg

And at about 11:00 Linus agrees: If the video get 150k likes, he, personally will build a power backup for him. And some seconds later: If it gets 250k likes - he will build a Rivian Rv1s.

The video has about 280k likes atm. So - does Linus stand to his word? Is he as trustworthy, as we all might think?

So, I am looking at external drives to use to store a flight simulation software, as my internal storage is not enough to store the contents.

Upon opening Amazon JP (since I live in Japan) I noticed these 30TB external drives coming up for around the US equivalent of $100. Knowing the fair pricing for these drives of that capacity, it's not passing my sniff test at all. I'm curious if it passes your sniff tests.

I already know that I'm not going to buy it. I'm going to get a USB 4.0/Thunderbolt 4 based drive so I can take full advantage of the speeds for my M1 Pro chip (Yes, I'm looking at upgrading soon. Perfect time maybe later on).

For the others in the room that may question why I am using a Mac for flight simulation, I am an addon developer, so I need to for business purposes. I have a perfectly working Windows computer as my main driver.
