Their use to be a running joke from the days gone by that electronic components ran on smoke and that if the smoke was let out it would be the end of the equipment (of course DELL reaffirmed this idea a few years back with the Taco Dell models of their laptops) This innovative company has come...

The last 10 years of the gaming and software industry have demonstrated a trend of forcing users into software as a service licenses. Example all versions of windows XP give the user NO COPYRIGHT usership only liccense to use the software at the companies discretion, this has caused some...

As you know progress goes ever forward, the use of materials changes the systems we use change. Well here is likely a fairly accurate set of 'future' of computing lists. Cyb - I belong to the department of redundancy and repitition.

Or at least disassemble it, so its not just showing the surface but the guts! The surface tear down has an interesting battery pack obviously it's not the standard laptop 18650 pack based design but a lithium polymer battery (thin). That tiny camera is 1280x720p (seriously). What was kind of...

Is it just me or is the new versioning for Firefox completely senseless? It's gone from v 3/4 to 14 in only what 8/9 months? I tried to figure out what they were thinking, and it looks as if they were thinking that 'changing the versioning faster would show faster developement'. Anyone else do...

MIT has introduced a new language for use of multicore processing platforms called Halide. It seems to use C++ as it's general structure and form but separates the program into 2 portions. The first is a scheduler and the second is the actual process to do work. It does hold promise for...
