Android eReader Recommendations
5+ min ago (170+ words) Looking at getting a tablet with a "paper like" screen for reading ebooks and bible study. I currently use a few apps with saved notes, highlights, etc. on my phone so it will have to be an Android device to carry that over. A color screen is another need but understand the cost going up there. I see many in the 6 to 7 inch size but not sure much better that is than my phone. Appreciate any recommendations gang and many thanks in advance. Looking at getting a tablet with a "paper like" screen for reading ebooks and bible study.

Canceled PlayStation Exclusive “Project Ooze” Resurfaces in Alleged Gameplay Videos
18+ min ago (228+ words) The leaker Dusk Golem has shared two alleged gameplay videos of what was supposed to be the PlayStation exclusive developed by Deviation Games for Sony, known as "Project Ooze" or "Draconis." From what can be seen, the game appeared to be a third-person shooter with a fairly traditional setup for the genre, featuring a sci-fi environment that looked quite intriguing. The project was developed by the Deviation team, founded by Jason Blundell and Dave Anthony, both veterans of Call of Duty. The studio was later shut down, leading to the project's cancellation. According to Dusk Golem, the two short videos come from a longer one-hour gameplay video that showed the game in an early development phase, dating back to around four years ago. In total, about ten minutes of footage have been shared, revealing a clearly unfinished build, lacking several…...
Intel Confirms the BMG-G31 “Big Battlemage” GPU
25+ min ago (219+ words) The excitement in the discrete graphics card market continues to grow with Intel's official confirmation of its new BMG-G31 GPU, also known as "Big Battlemage." This confirmation came through a recent update in Intel's VTune Profiler (thanks OC3D), the company's code optimization tool. This update is a strong sign that Intel's next generation of graphics cards is coming soon. The BMG-G31 promises a major boost in performance. Reports indicate that this new GPU is 60% larger than the BMG-G21 chip used in the current ARC B580 model. This increase in size should translate directly into more processing power, aiming to deliver high-end gaming performance. According to early leaks, the "Big Battlemage" could feature a 256-bit memory bus and up to 16 GB of GDDR6 memory. It is also expected to support the PCIe 5.0 standard, offering cutting-edge data transfer speeds. Intel's new GPU might make its…...
Ryzen 7 9850X3D Appears on PassMark; 4.7% Better Performance Than 9800X3D
33+ min ago (279+ words) Recent leaks have shed light on the upcoming Ryzen 7 9850X3D. The first performance results on PassMark have been revealed, giving us a glimpse of what this CPU can deliver. According to information leaked by X86 is dead&back (thanks OC3D), the 9850X3D is expected to be a direct evolution of the popular Ryzen 7 9800X3D, one of AMD's most successful processors among gamers. The official launch of this CPU is expected to take place at CES 2026. Expectations are high since AMD's 3D V-Cache technology has proven to be exceptionally efficient for gaming. The numbers are clear: the Ryzen 7 9850X3D shows a 4.7% performance gain in both single-core and multi-core tests compared to the 9800X3D. The main factor seems to be an improvement in clock speeds. Rumors suggest that the 9850X3D will feature a boost clock of 5.6 GHz, about 400 MHz higher than the Ryzen 7 9800X3D. These higher speeds appear to be delivering on…...
I found the cheapest large-capacity PCIe Gen4 SSD per TB
44+ min ago (316+ words) Bulk buying the 61.44TB Solidigm D5-P5336 brings the price below $95 per TB Large PCIe Gen4 SSDs are usually eye-wateringly expensive, but we've found a model where the amount of storage you get for the money is better than anything else in its class. The 61.44TB Solidigm D5-P5336, currently on sale for $5,829.99 on Newegg, ends up offering the best price per TB you can get for any SSD above 16TB. The D5-P5336 uses QLC memory and a PCIe Gen4 x4 interface and comes in the E1.L 9.5mm form factor that appears in high density servers. It isn't meant for home desktops, but the sheer amount of storage makes it interesting for anywhere large solid state capacity is needed. The 61.44TB model is the best value option in the range, with smaller versions offering less storage for a higher cost per TB. Once you look at the numbers, the pricing becomes surprisingly close…...

AI: Now the biggest cybersecurity threat
50+ min ago (207+ words) AI-augmented intrusions will compress dwell time from weeks to days, creating incidents that unfold too quickly for traditional response cycles to contain. Cybersecurity concerns continue to arise, and businesses are putting in more and more resources in terms of defence. According to Conner Lines, who is the CTO at SixMap, a key threat to businesses is coming in the form of AI itself. The core issue is the asymmetry in how AI failures impact each side. For attackers, a faulty inference is irrelevant. A model misunderstanding a sequence, selecting a suboptimal exploit, or misclassifying an exposure simply means they try again. These can afford rapid, iterative experimentation with little to no human oversight. For defenders, that same type of failure can be catastrophic. An AI system that incorrectly claims a vulnerability is remediated or suppresses a true positive alert introduces…...
54+ min ago (1877+ words) With the same platform and specs as the V Max Play, this isn't an easy-to-carry phone for anyone without a backpack. The two redeeming features are that it's slightly cheaper, and the Play's projector has been replaced with something less niche. Can measure distances and areas A blunt weapon of last resort Confuses Lasers and IR Doogee's V Max series includes some monstrous phones, all powered by the same MediaTek Dimensity 7300 SoC and a huge 20500 mAh battery. The V Max LR is the cheapest option and delivers an almost identical design to the Play model, but with the omission of the projector. Instead, the LR has a measuring sensor, which is slightly less niche and might be useful to anyone in the construction industry who doesn't already have a gizmo for that. Using an integrated app, this can measure lengths…...

USB Video Capture Devices: Wow! They’re All Bad!!
1+ hour, 5+ min ago (194+ words) It turns out there's an exception to all the disappointment: the Sony Digital Video Media Converter (DVMC) is a piece of vintage hardware released in 1998 that completely outperformed the other devices [VWestlife] tested. There is a catch, but it's a small one. More on that in a moment. For an old device, [VWestlife] says using the DVMC was remarkably smooth. It needed no special drivers, defaults to analog input mode, and can be powered over USB. That last one may sound trivial, but it means there's no worry about lacking some proprietary wall adapter with an oddball output voltage. The catch? It isn't really a USB device, and requires a FireWire (IEEE-1394) port in order to work. But if that's not a deal-breaker, it does a fantastic job. So if you're looking to digitize older analog media, [VWestlife] says it might…...
