Optical waves propagating through air or multi-mode fiber can be patterned or decomposed using orthogonal spatial modes, with far-ranging applications in imaging, communication, and directed energy. Yet the systems that perform these wavefront manipulations are cumbersome and large, restricting their utilization to high-end applications.

Maybe we can get some MAGAts to volunteer to try out this contraption?

The Albany Little League Braves captured the Major Division title in dramatic fashion, defeating the Rockies 11-10 with a walk-off hit in the bottom of the 6th inning. The Rockies led most of the way jumping to a 8-2 lead after 2 1/2 innings. The Braves clawed back with a 5-run rally and took a … Continue reading Braves Win Major Division Championship with Walk-Off Thriller! →

Last year, Intel boasted that its Meteor Lake processors, dubbed Core Ultra, represented the company’s biggest architectural shift in 40 years. But Intel didn’t settle down after that: today it’s revealing how Lunar Lake, its next laptop chip coming this fall, will overhaul the formula yet again.

Just three months after releasing its first gaming handheld PC to damning reviews — here’s mine — MSI is already announcing a likely replacement. The “MSI Claw 8 AI Plus” swaps its lackluster Intel Meteor Lake chip for the brand-new Lunar Lake ones, while replacing its 7-inch, 1080p 120Hz variable resolution rate screen for a larger 8-inch one.

At Computex, Intel reveals the architecture of its Lunar Lake on-device chip that will power AI PCs to compete against Qualcomm and AMD.

Intel unveils the Xeon 6 processor, helping modernize data centers to accelerate enterprise AI workloads. Plus, it revealed Gaudi 3 pricing.

Streaming giant Prime Video will release “Like a Dragon,” a live-action series adaptation of the SEGA game franchise “Yakuza Like a Dragon.” The six-part crime-suspense-action series is directed by Take Masaharu (“100 Yen Love”) and Takimoto Kengo (“Kamen Teacher”) and stars Takeuchi Ryoma (multiple “Kamen Rider” titles) as the lead character, Kiryu Kazuma. It will […]

Intel’s fastest processors have included hyperthreading, a technique that lets more than one thread run on a single CPU core, for over 20 years — and it’s used by AMD (which calls it “simultaneous multi-threading”) as well. But you won’t see a little “HT” on the Intel sticker for any Lunar Lake laptops, because none of them use it. Hyperthreading will be disabled on all Lunar Lake CPU cores, including both performance and efficiency cores.

It’s getting pretty hard to find a laptop with a user-accessible SO-DIMM slot to upgrade the memory. And it’s about to get a lot harder. Starting with its upcoming Lunar Lake laptop CPU series, Intel will install memory into the processor SoC itself, offering only 16GB or 32GB initially. Yes, Intel laptops are getting rid of user-replaceable RAM, at least for this series of chips.

There are a lot of Steam Deck alternatives out there right now, but MSI’s version is the only one based on Intel hardware instead of AMD or Arm.

You bought into the hype and purchased a first-gen AI laptop with an Intel Core Ultra (Meteor Lake) chip inside. Congratulations! But in a world that shifted overnight to Copilot+ PCs with much more stringent requirements, were you a fool for doing so?

Today at Computex, MSI announced a slew of new AI-ready gaming and content creation laptops. They’re powered by the latest Intel Core Ultra (codenamed “Lunar Lake”) and AMD Ryzen AI 300 processors, which are more power efficient, resulting in laptops with better battery life and thinner builds. When it comes to the war on chips, the NPUs (aka neural processing units) inside Qualcomm’s new Arm-based Snapdragon X Elite and X Plus processors have been taking the news circuit by storm, as it can deliver 45 TOPS of AI computing power.
